His curiosity always got Pete into trouble. Why should this time be any different?
The rumors spread like wildfire. Supposedly, there is a bar where men go to meet other men. Just about a hundred miles south of Red Creek, the little farm town that Pete has never set foot outside of in his entire life. While everyone else talks about how disgusting the bar must be, Pete is secretly intrigued. The thought of going there keeps him up at night. He wants to find out if what he desires—to feel another man’s touch—is more than a phase.
He jumps on his motorcycle to take his chances, but his usual luck strikes. He’s been in that bar for less than ten minutes and has already turned everyone against him. Until a familiar voice calls out his name… A voice he thought he would never hear again in his life.
This is Not a Safe Space is a short contemporary gay romance that follows twenty-one-year-old Peter “Pete” Riggs on a dangerous but rewarding journey to find answers to the questions that keep him up at night. Expect a rural friends-to-lovers story with a hard-won, happy-for-now ending.
