Heather Bay: The Complete Collection, Volume Two by Charlie Novak
Enjoy the second two novels of the Heather Bay series, plus a bonus novella, in a collected edition, and continue your coastal holidays in these low angst love stories full of spice, sweetness, and swoon.
This box set features the original novels, Like I Pretended, and Like I Wanted, as well as the novella, Like I Pictured, plus four bonus shorts.
Like I Pretended — Superstar actor Henry Lu is looking for a change, and a queer period drama is the perfect antidote to being an action hero. Meeting grumpy coffee shop owner, Alex, is the cherry on top but Alex isn’t impressed with the appearance of Hollywood royalty in his life. Forced to fake a relationship to soothe the ire of corporate bigwigs, Alex and Henry soon discover there’s more to the other than meets the eye. And pretending to be in love never felt so real.
Like I Wanted — Best friends and roommates, Theo and Laurie, have always done everything together but when someone calls them boyfriends, their neat little world is upended. As life throws Theo further off balance, Laurie offers a niche form of stress relief that brings them closer than ever. Now the pair must address the feelings they’ve always hidden from, and give each other everything they ever wanted.
Please note that one of the MCs is involved in adult entertainment and chooses to remain working in the industry, with the full consent of his partner, once they’re in a relationship. For more information, please see the internal Author’s Note.
Like I Pictured — Set before Like I Promised, photographer Bastian meets reclusive fantasy author Anders Flynn at a comic convention and strikes up an unlikely friendship via email. When Bastian finally plucks up the courage to visit Heather Bay, he finds more than friendship waiting for him.

The Chess Set — Laurie and friends have a present for Theo. Something he’s wanted all year involving a lot of stuffed rodents on a board.
