One year ago today, my second novel, Safe Now - Heroes of Grant’s Crossing Book 2, hit the shelves!
I can't believe it's been a whole year!
Safe Now is an emotional story about Steve, an overprotective older brother who stops at nothing to keep his younger brother, Nick, safe. I love the relationship/friendship between these two brothers.
Full blurb:
No part of Safe Now was created by generative AI. This was 100% the creation of the author, H.M.S. Brown. CW: Domestic violence, religious homophobia, violence, interrupted sexual assault, brief drug use by a tertiary character.

Some secrets can't be kept.
Some people can't be protected.
Some brothers can't be stopped.
How far would you go to protect your family?
