Clang - Davies E.

"I can't let you face this alone."

When blacksmith Jackson Riley asks his friend Chase for help with his dating profile, their friendship stirs into more. Jackson wants a family tattoo and Chase's skilled hands can deliver. But when Chase asks him to forge a sword, Jackson worries: what could he need protection from?

Tattoo artist Chase MacLeod thought he'd escaped his abusive family, but one letter throws his world into disarray. He's taking fencing lessons to grow more confident, but that's not enough. New flame Jackson defends Chase, and even opens his home and heart to him. Chase just has to find the courage to face his past.

Chase wants to find a place to call home, and a family to call his own, but the enemy fights dirty... and his worst enemy might just be himself. With Jackson by his side, can he take on the world? Or will his scars forever close his heart?

Clang is the second book in The Riley Brothers, a low-angst series filled with brotherly banter and small-town smiles. This steamy, standalone gay romance novel can be enjoyed on its own, and promises a happily-ever-after ending.
