Rules to Live By

My world’s a mess, but then he strides in with all his polished charm and a commanding presence that’s impossible to ignore…

There’s no mistaking it—I’m in trouble. My band’s fallen apart, my bank account is dry, and my best friend is annoyingly in love. I’m the guy who fits in better with the rough crowd of dive bars, not the refined world of bespoke suits and elite clubs. And then there’s Jack.

Jack’s in a league of his own with his salt and pepper beard, impeccable suits, and air of authority. He’s the driving force behind The Lodge, the most talked-about gay kink club in Annandale, and he’s a living embodiment of dominance. And somehow, against all odds, he sees something in me, an unpolished misfit.

Jack’s presence is magnetic, his promises of pleasure are tempting, and I find myself stepping into a world I’ve never dared to imagine. He offers things I’ve never thought possible—structure, hope, and a love that’s dizzyingly intense.

The twist? Jack claims that I’m the one with the power, even though he’s Daddy. It’s a dizzying concept. Can I truly navigate this world of second chances, age gaps, and unspoken desires? Is the allure of Jack’s world worth the risk to my already fractured heart?

Rules to Live By features a brat who’s not used to following the rules and a workaholic businessman who may be too committed to the success of his unique kink club. The Lodge series will follow the growing popularity of this club as well as the men who make it run.
