Gay romance by Jenna Jones.
"I'm off duty now," Austin said. "I can think of all sorts of ways you could serve me."
"You -- you're the only thing I have faith in anymore."
"You can want anything you like. Would you actually ... touch?"
"I couldn't find you." I tried to sound annoyed -- always running after you, me -- but instead it came out shaking.
"It's a wedding song," Sawyer said in a voice full of wonder. "It's a duet by two men and it's a wedding song."

Ebony Angel
When Austin Archer was eighteen, he was attacked by an unknown assailant and rescued by a dark figure who wore ebony armor. Now thirty and a police detective, Austin faces a mystery that is connected to his own attack in ways he never thought possible.

Austin is drawn to Jude and wants to trust him, but Jude's claims about the identity of the murderer and even his own are too fantastic to be believed.
When Austin was a child, his mother sang to him that angels were watching over him. Austin is about to learn that this is more than a lullaby.
