Conflict Resolution - Paperback

James:

James really thought he and Leon left all their struggles behind at the haunted house. His mom is healthy and happy, dating not one but two wonderful people, and James' own relationship is off to a great start. Unfortunately, as the year draws to a close, James comes face-to-face with a new obstacle: intimacy.

While James is by no means a stranger to physical intimacy, it's been a long time since he had to introduce someone to his parts and preferences. Taking this next step in their relationship comes with lots of conversations...and James wouldn't call himself an expert conversationalist.

Leon:

Well, it's been quite a year. Going from enemies to friends to soon-to-be lovers with James has been a journey, but Leon wouldn't trade a second of it. What he could do without is the dual diagnosis of anxiety, which he discovered in the middle of a haunted house, and ADHD, which James' office subordinates noticed before any of Leon's therapists did.

He really thought he'd gotten all his self-discovery out of the way as a teen, but it seems there's always room to grow. At least this time he won't be doing it alone.

Conflict Resolution is a steamy MM romance novella with trans rep about self-discovery, growth, New Year's resolutions, and, of course, lots of snuggles with a very needy cat.

This is the second novella in a series of novellas following the same couple through various stages of their journey toward a happy-ever-after. This book focuses primarily on the exploring intimacy stage, so if that's not your vibe, skip to the next novella, Love Mediation, for more James and Leon.
