An erotic gay romance, a suspenseful thriller....
A series of murders in New York City has stymied the police and FBI alike, and they suspect the culprit is a single killer sending an indecipherable message. But when the two federal agents assigned to the investigation are taken out, the FBI takes a more personal interest in the case.
Special Agent Ty Grady is pulled out of undercover work after his case blows up in his face. He's cocky, abrasive, and indisputably the best at what he does. But when he's paired with Special Agent Zane Garrett, it's hate at first sight. Garrett is the perfect image of an agent: serious, sober, and focused, which makes their partnership a classic cliché: total opposites, good cop - bad cop, the odd couple. They both know immediately that their partnership will pose more of an obstacle than the lack of evidence left by the murderer.
Practically before their special assignment starts, the murderer strikes again - this time at them. Now on the run, trying to track down a man who has focused on killing his pursuers, Grady and Garrett will have to figure out how to work together before they become two more notches in the murderer's knife.

"Cut and Run book one"
This story has everything that any reader will want in a story.It is a gay romance but nothing like you have ever read before.Two special agents assigned to track down a killer thought to be one of their own find love as well as the killer eventually.The love scenes are carefully written without overt description but are highly erotic. The action packed story full of drama and suspense will thrill but beware the death scenes they are shocking. I could not believe that this was written by two women but if I want to read about gay love and thriller fiction give me these two anytime. More of the same please
"Best book on audible!!"
This book was a step away from my usual Fantasy genre and it was made with some tredidation, usually I just can't read Crime, I get bored or scared and pick up a Terry Pratchett to distract myself with until I've forgotten all about the serial murderer in the other book. HOWEVER because this so proudly displays 'Gay Romance' on the audible title line I couldn't stop myself from pressing the 'add to cart' button, and I am so insanely happy that i did!
Zane and Ty are the most in depth and loveable characters I have ever come across, I have never developed empathy with characters as quickly as with these two. They are dedicated strong, intelligent and caring yet still flawed and still human. Their interactions are a perfect blend of intense, funny violent and loving. That will sometimes leave you in stitches from laughing on the verge of tears or fanning away the heat. I simply can't praise the authors enough for their wonderful work on them.
Also the narator Sawyer Allerde is absolutely amazing, his delivery for Ty and Zane is totally flawless, even down to the gravel in Ty's voice and the 'Poster Boy' in Zane's, he does the lead characters justice! Not to mention the varied list of minor characters all of which are easy to differentiate, he even copes well with the female voices.
If you have one book, it should be this one!!
"Wow"
Brilliant book. Good story set up and scorching romance. Adored all the men in peril bits and all the angst. Well read too!
"I love this series"
I absolutely adore these books, there is so much more to them than than is generally found in the usual "gay romance" where the flimsy plot only exists to prop up the sex scenes, don't get me wrong, i enjoy a good sex scene as much as anyone and am very happy to say that in that respect, these books don't let me down one bit, plus all the characters are well written, the plot lines are clever, the dialogue is snappy and the two main characters Ty & Zane are fantastic. This first instalment is a wonderful beginning to what has become my favorite series of books EVER, currently standing at 6 books but sadly only the first 4 on Audible so come on publishers, get with the program and lets have all the books available in every format so that the legion of Ty + Zane fans don't miss out!
"Perfect balance of passion, eroticism and romantic"
Great book, Ty and Zane are fantastic! I could hear their stories every day; I love them totally and love the fact that they are ready to do anything to protect each other. Never banal! Superbly written and detailed and beautifully narrated! A mouthwatering mix of romanticism, eroticism and passion that makes you want more and more and more and never gets you bored or tired. Looking forward to diving into their new adventure!
