Colby... Conflicted (Studs & Steel #9)

Colby is fed up of being on his own. His partner in crime-fighting, Harrison, is on paternity leave; he and his wife having just had their second child. Colby's missing their easy banter, not to mention the fact that it was a damn sight easier working with someone else than going it alone...
When Parker comes crashing into his life, quite unexpectedly, he's delighted - even if Parker is a glass-half-empty kind of a guy with almost zero interest in starting something special with him. Colby isn't put off by that; there's something about his stand-offish manner that Colby finds absolutely irresistible.
Parker has issues. He's a struggling actor, trying to get his name out there, but he's been abused in the past by the very guy who is standing right between stardom and failure.
When he confides in Colby about it, Colby wants to help him but Parker thinks it's a futile venture. No one is ever going to believe him over a big named producer... But when another would-be actor tweets that he's been the victim of assault by the same guy and a trend starts up with loads of other young men coming out and saying the same, Parker realises that, with Colby's help, maybe they really can take the guy down... Rated '3/5 - Open door' for steam/spice/heat level.
