Jackson's life is going nowhere but downhill - his best friend has died, he walked out of his job, and the end of his first novel is nowhere in sight. He meets Cane, the potential man of his dreams, but unfortunately, Cane is straight, he's sworn off relationships, and the love of Cane's life isn't even human - it's a B&B called the Crystal Inn.

Nearly having hit bottom, Jackson Powers looks to his childhood inspirations, eccentric author Hendrix Morley and the town of Brazen Bridge, for a boost. 

After four years, Cane Spencer has successfully pulled the inn his father ran into the ground back into the black. It's again a profitable business and one of Brazen Bridge's top destinations.  

When Jackson books a week at the Crystal Inn to visit Morley's Mischief Manor, his first meeting with Cane is a rough one, but both men feel a spark. Despite their best efforts to snuff it out, and Cane's rule against mingling with guests, the spark slowly turns into a flame, and then there's a kiss on the famed Brazen Bridge. Can Cane's first time with a man be far behind?

Slow Burn is a 62,000-word gay romance with first time, hurt/comfort, and small town themes. This is the first book in the Brazen Bridge series.
