Chapter One
     
    “So, Tyler,” Julian asked as he swept up the tufts of hair on the floor from the last client of the day, while Tyler cashed up the till for the night. “Where’s your hot policeman boyfriend taking you tonight then?”
    Tyler paused in his counting to reply. “He’s invited me to his place.” Excitement blossomed in his chest at the thought of seeing Duncan again. “He’s cooking me dinner and then we’re watching a film.”
    “Ooh, that sounds dead romantic.” Julian straightened up and leaned on the handle of the broom. His sharp face was wistful. “I’ve never had a bloke cook dinner for me. I’m lucky if they even buy me a drink.”
    “That’s because you keep blowing them in club bathrooms, sweetie,” Shelley, their boss, cut in. “I keep telling you… you have to make them work harder for it.”
    Tyler chuckled at Julian’s huff of outrage. “She’s got a point, Jules. Maybe you should try going on a date first next time?”
    Julian went back to sweeping. “Yeah, maybe. But it’s easy for you to say. The only guys I’ve ever managed to meet on hook-up apps are seriously disappointing when I meet them in real life. They all claim to be super masculine tops, then they turn out to be more femme than me. You struck lucky.”
    “Yeah, I guess I did.” Tyler grinned.
    He’d only been dating Duncan for about a month, but it was starting to get serious. They’d chatted on the app at first, then on the phone, and when they’d finally met for real, he couldn’t believe his luck. Tall, built, and drop-dead gorgeous, Duncan was the wet dream of Tyler’s teenage years and was also a nice guy. He was the holy grail of dates.
    “You’ve been out with this one a few times now, yes?” Shelley asked. She didn’t usually pay too much attention to Julian and Tyler’s gossip—she was always more interested in showing them photos of her new grandchild. “And he’s a policeman?”
    “Yes, and yes.” Tyler closed the till and leaned back against the counter. He could feel the smug smile spreading over his face as he thought about Duncan. “I think he might be a keeper.”
    “He’s so hot, Shells,” Julian sighed. “Tyler, show her that photo of him in his uniform.”
    Flushing, but enjoying the attention, Tyler got out his phone and scrolled through the pictures. He had several of Duncan now, but his favourite was the one where he’d persuaded Duncan to pose in his uniform. Tall, dark, and handsome in a slightly dangerous-looking way, his folded arms showed off the impressive width of his chest and shoulders. His face was mostly serious, but a tiny smile lurked at the corners of his mouth.
    “Oh my, yes,” Shelley said. “He’s a looker isn’t he? And he treats you right?”
    “Yeah, he’s a sweetheart.” Tyler took the phone back and put it in his pocket. “He’s a gentle-giant type. Looks as tough as anything, but he’s a really lovely bloke.”
    “I bet he’s great in bed.” Julian’s eyes gleamed. “He looks so dominant and macho. I bet he tops the fuck out of you. Has he got a huge dick? God, you’re so lucky.”
    “Okay.” Shelley laughed and pretended to cover her ears. “I’m going to check the sinks are clean for tomorrow while you boys overshare the gory details.”
    “So?” Julian pressed once she’d gone. “Is he an amazing fuck?”
    “Yes,” Tyler admitted. “He’s great. Kind of… gentle but still dominant at the same time. He listens, and I can tell him what I want. It’s good.”
    “Do you ever miss topping though?” Julian asked. “You’ve always been versatile, but I can’t imagine him bending over for you in a million years. It would be like a whippet fucking a Great Dane.” He snorted at the mental image those words had obviously conjured up. “Do you think you can stick with bottoming for him if it turns into a long-term thing?”
    Tyler shrugged. “Maybe? Who knows? I like him a lot, and he’s a great
