Tusk Me Anything: A Very Gay Kraken Rom-Com
I came back to Brine Bay for three
a job, a bed, and revenge on the kraken bartender who ghosted me.
Unfortunately for both of us, he owns a lighthouse.
Milo is cold, broke, glittery, and soaking wet in a crop top that says Free Trunk Hugs. He’s also officially a resident of Brine Bay, thanks to a soggy lease, a suspicious landlord, and a talent for speaking things into existence.
Cass does not want him there.
Cass likes his life dark, quiet, and carefully contained behind the bar at The Knotty Buoy. He hides his Kraken form, keeps his tentacles under control, and absolutely does not take in pink elephant shifters who leave sparkle trails and unresolved sexual tension wherever they go.
Too bad Milo needs a place to stay.
Forced proximity turns into shared space. Shared space turns into accidental intimacy. And Cass’s very sentient, very opinionated tentacles are making it increasingly clear they have opinions about Milo.
When a storm traps them together in the lighthouse, the line between revenge and desire gets blurry fast. Between rogue tentacles, an underwear nest nobody admits to building, and a storage-room incident that defies several laws of physics, Cass starts realizing that hiding hasn’t made him safer. It’s just made him lonely.
With Brine Bay’s Pride parade approaching and the entire town watching far too closely, Cass has to decide if he’s ready to be seen as he is—monster, bartender, and man falling hard for exactly the wrong kind of sunshine.
Tusk Me Anything is a high-heat MM monster rom-com packed with grumpy/sunshine chaos, forced proximity, creative anatomy, and small-town queer nonsense. Expect glitter, tentacles, emotional damage, and a baby seal shifter named Dumpling.
Book 2 in the Trunks & Tentacles series. Can be read as a standalone. Ends happily.

This follows Trunk Show where an elephant shifter and kraken shifter battle it out in good ways and bad. You really REALLY need to read that short story first for context, it's a kind of introduction to the two main characters and the bizarre but wonderful town and it's people, plus it's hilarious. Here in this longer story the elephant is back in town and steaming mad, at first anyway. This was an extremely entertaining, bizarre, fun ride, if you're into shifters that is. It was at time hilarious, sometimes touching, but mostly totally outrageous.
