About Foxglove
Copse
After a massive anxiety attack, Sam Atkins left his
high-powered job in the City and committed himself to life on the road in a
small van. Six months in, he’s running out of savings and coming to the
conclusion that he might have to go home to his emotionally abusive family.
Needing time to think, he takes a walk through a copse
by the Cornish roadside, only to stumble upon the body of a ritualistically
killed sheep. As he’s trying to work out what the symbols around the animal
mean, the sheep’s owner, Jennifer, and her nephew, Ruan Gwynn, come upon him.
Ruan is a kind-hearted young man with a large supportive
clan, and since he and Sam feel almost instant attraction, he doesn’t want to believe Sam is a sheep-killing
cultist. In fact, the moment he lays eyes on Sam’s miserable solitary life, he
wants to rescue the man. But as the killings escalate, he and Sam need to stop
whoever is actually to blame before they can concentrate on saving each other.

About the
Porthkennack Universe
Welcome to Porthkennack, a charming Cornish seaside town with a long
and sometimes sinister history. Legend says King Arthur's Black Knight built
the fort on the headland here, and it’s a certainty that the town was founded
on the proceeds of smuggling, piracy on the high seas, and the deliberate
wrecking of cargo ships on the rocky shore. Nowadays it draws in the tourists
with sunshine and surfing, but locals know that the ghosts of its Gothic past
are never far below the surface.
This collaborative story world is brought to you by five
award-winning, best-selling British LGBTQ romance authors: Alex Beecroft, Joanna Chambers, Charlie Cochrane, Garrett Leigh, and JL Merrow. Follow Porthkennack and its inhabitants through the centuries and
through the full rainbow spectrum with historical and contemporary stand-alone
titles.
