@Jax Calder - next book idea?

I MEAN TECHNICALLY HE IS KIDNAPPED
TECHNICALLY

« Something about Singh’s posture sets off warning bells in my head. He’s too rigid, too formal, his eyes not quite meeting mine. »

Presently I have no idea if he’s the traitor or not. But to be completely fair, he did just find out that you’re fucking the prince, Eoin. So I think he’s allowed to be a little awkward around you lol

« This theme park might be Middle-earth, but even Tolkien knew better than to write hobbits marrying into royalty. »

I would argue that a better comparison would be a Ranger marrying into royalty. Which did happen. Even tho the Ranger was technically royalty himself lol

Lmao these two are possibly the WORST at keeping this secret

People were genuinely shocked when Callum and Oliver announced they were together. When Nicholas and Eoin announce it people are just gonna be like “yeah no makes sense” or “…were we not supposed to know”

Ok my dudes there’s a limited amount of time you can spend in Nicholas’s hotel room “discussing security”

I mean good for y’all

But a better excuse next time pls

Usually going back over the same scene in the other character’s POV is a no-go for me but GODDAMN if Jax Calder doesn’t do it brilliantly

Not the whole scene, just a short moment, usually a kiss

It’s like a slow motion replay and I love it

« My vision narrows to a tunnel, everything falling away until all I can see is him standing there, blood-smeared and triumphant, and so goddamn reckless and beautiful I can barely breathe. It feels like someone's taken a crowbar to my chest, prying open my ribs and exposing everything. »

AHHHHHHH

«"Actually, talking about doing a good job at something, there's something we wanted to ask you," Callum's voice shifts, taking on that particular American earnestness. "Oliver and I have been discussing godparents, and we'd like to ask if you'd consider the job."
The phone nearly slips from my fingers.
Something hot and uncomfortable prickles behind my eyes, and it's a few seconds before I'm able to reply.»
Ahhh

« Seeing Oliver with Callum is rather like witnessing a grizzly bear being conquered by a golden retriever. »

Best description lol
