A recently out divorcee must explore his identity and how to not be the straight-acting man he's been his whole life. Just when he has found his footing, a flamboyant trans man jumbles up his ideas about what it means to be gay, to be masculine, to be a man.

***

Edwin realises he's gay at the ripe age of 56. Coming-out should set him free to finally explore his sexuality, but honestly?

He feels lost.

He's getting a divorce after thirty years of marriage, half of his friends turn out to be homophobes, he feels an interloper in LGBT places, and for the first time ever, he's living alone. His only remaining certainty - the one he's risked everything for - is that he's attracted to men.

To affirm his sexuality, Edwin focuses on everything masculine and seeks out gay men like him. But just when he finds his footing, a flamboyant gay man jumbles up all his ideas about what it means to be gay, to be masculine, to be a man.

If Edwin wants to find his community, he'll need to re-examine what it takes to belong.

Baby Boy || MxM Gay Romance || Omegaverse by ShadedSin

The boy is completely shut down. A broken shell is what they turned him into, his human side nearly gone, the alpha in him tortured into full submission. This is the boy alpha Michael finds in the hands of criminals, and quickly becomes devoted to. ***** Welcome to my Shaded Universe, where domestic terrorism is a big issue; where laws and rules get bend for the greater good; where the good guys are not always good, and the bad guys aren't always bad; where men are affectionate and cuddly, and where "good boy" and "baby boy" are common phrases even between friends. || Gay || BxB || MxM || LGBT || Romance || Omegaverse ||

Their Little Femboy (MxMxM) | Completed by Origin_of_Kelpie

Leslie Roberts thought he was an average guy (aside from a few things he didn't like to think about). At twenty-one years of age, he has a girlfriend of three years, an annoying best friend, good friendships, and is already in his last year of college with a graphic arts degree. But things weren't fully as Leslie believed. Instead, there was something much worse going on in the background. Amongst the confusion, fear, anger, and betrayal, two people were there to save Leslie and give him some much needed rest, pampering, and affection. However, Leslie had forgotten something very important and that missing puzzle piece will change his life forever. ____________ Warnings: MxMxM romance Threesome 18+ Smut Kinks (Crossdressing, DDLB, BDSM) Violence + Language Mafia/Gangs Child abuse (Memories) Kidnapping Obsessive characters ____________ If you recognize this title, cover, and overall summary line, you most likely read the old version of Their Little Femboy from my previous account. And yes, this is indeed a *new* version that was mostly written from scratch. I hope you enjoy reading it!

The Wright Way by JabeRona

Ethan Wright knows what's right and what's wrong. Homosexuality is wrong to him, but then, given the background he's coming (or, more precisely, running) from, he could hardly have formed a different opinion. He doesn't allow it to affect his actions, though. He is a firefighter, and he saves lives no matter how people choose to live them. There's just that one guy that he can't quite get out of his head. The guy that circumstances keep putting in his way. The guy that makes him feel... he's not sure, how. There's not much time for him to figure that out, for his past is about to catch up with him, putting more than just his life in danger, forcing him to face uncomfortable truths and make life-changing decisions. #1 in BXB on 2022-10-01 #2 in MANXMAN on 2022-10-01 *** WARNINGS: The story contains mature themes and language. Not suitable for children. Some chapters include violent and sexual content and may be triggering for some people. Read at your own discretion. Also, the main character is pretty homophobic in the beginning of the story. Needless to say, he'll change ;) yet if you find such a start too upsetting, you might want to skip this book.

Possessing Sydney's Heart (manxman|| lgbtq) by notbackingdown

My life has never been roses and sunshine. I could go on and on about how I grew up in a broken household, a junkie prostitute for a mother who pimped me out to every paying customer that didn't mind sleeping with a minor. But no, this is really about me finding family. Being better than the example my mother set for me. This is about forgiveness with some trials along the way like getting knocked up by my boyfriend's brother Angelo, having Angelo find out six years after the fact, Angelo wanting to play 'Daddy' and not to mention my job as an exotic dancer just to list a few. Come on... you know you want to find out the dirty details... %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Important My books are written explicitly for a MATURE AUDIENCE 18 YEARS AND OLDER. There will be some instances/scenes/suggestions of sexual acts, crude language and will portray gay relationships between males. If you do not enjoy stories of this nature please leave now. I will not condone/defend/accept any sort of attacks on my stories, my characters or myself. It is well within your right to choose what type of entertainment you prefer but I will not be blamed for your curiosity. Read at your own risk. Copyright © 2016 by T.Gray All rights reserved.
