Small Sacrifices

First job. First love. First… political scandal?

Fresh out of college, Reid needs to prove himself. With an internship in the office of the Governor of California, he’s off to a great start. It’s difficult, but Reid manages. Even in the face of distractions like the governor’s son Everett, whom he runs into suspiciously often.

But then, a scandal connects the governor to several sick children and a cover-up, and Reid has to start asking questions. Has he put his trust in the wrong person? What is he supposed to do now? And why the hell does Everett keep trying to talk to him?

This is a gay romance about standing up for yourself and standing up for what’s right. It features: A golden retriever love interest with a slight alcohol problem, adhd and autism representation, and siblings taking care of each other.

Who's Willa?

Hi there!

I’m one of those late nineties babies who spent way too much time on the internet growing up. What did I do there? Read. Millions of words of fan fiction taught me not only English but also what it means to crave stories.

Today, I crave them so much that I come up with my own. All of those queer books I could never find in my small town library? I write them to disappear into and to put on my bookshelf. Maybe you’d like them on yours, as well!
