    About this ebook

    On Black Friday, all's fair in love, war, and shopping...

    Twenty-seven year old Aiden Crawford's been single too long. He says he's choosy, his friends call it being too picky. Either way, he just can't find a good, trustworthy guy.

    Aiden's best friend drags him out on an overnight Black Friday shopping trip as part of her scheme to profit from the year's hottest Christmas toys. Waiting outside in the long line, Aiden notices an attractive stranger that makes him question his disbelief in love at first sight.

    Todd Valenti is tall, handsome, and too sexy for his own good. He says all the right things, but would the slick stud say or do anything just to get his hands on the last coveted toy on the shelf?

    When emotions run high and holiday stress takes its toll on bargain hunters searching for the best deals ever, practically anything can happen in a department store...maybe even a gay guy finding love on Black Friday!

    Finding Love On Black Friday is a standalone gay romance with an HEA ending.

      On Black Friday, all's fair in love, war, and shopping...

      Twenty-seven year old Aiden Crawford's been single too long.  He says he's choosy, his friends call it being too picky.  Either way, he just can't find a good, trustworthy guy.

      Aiden's best friend drags him out on an overnight Black Friday shopping trip as part of her scheme to profit from the year's hottest Christmas toys.  Waiting outside in the long line, Aiden notices an attractive stranger that makes him question his disbelief in love at first sight.

      Todd Valenti is tall, handsome, and too sexy for his own good.  He says all the right things, but would the slick stud say or do anything just to get his hands on the last coveted toy on the shelf?

      When emotions run high and holiday stress takes its toll on bargain hunters searching for the best deals ever, practically anything can happen in a department store...maybe even a gay guy finding love on Black Friday!

      Chapter 1

      Aiden Crawford sipped his coffee and tried to suppress a yawn.  He turned in the passenger seat and pretended to look out the window at the other cars pulling into the mall parking lot.  He glanced at the dashboard clock: quarter past one on Thanksgiving night.

      He had grudgingly admitted earlier that it seemed more accurate to think of the night as Black Friday Eve, the name that the media had been using all week long.  Considering his own participation in the shopping ritual (aka letting his friend Tracey talk him into it), he figured he had little grounds to argue.

      Let's go over the rules, Tracey Darnelle said as she tapped her fingers on the steering wheel and surveyed the already overcrowded lot looking for a place to park.

      I know how to shop, Tracey.  I am a gay man after all.

      "The jury's still out on that one.  You're the only gay man I know who hasn't seen any action since last Thanksgiving!"

      How many gay men do you know?

      Tracey gave him the side-eye.  Aiden felt duly chastised.  It had been a stupid retort; he knew it the moment the words left his lips.  Tracey's profession as a hairstylist in a posh downtown salon and spa pretty much ensured her an inside track on getting to know lots of gay guys in the city both as co-workers and clients.

      Aiden changed tactics.  Well, I'm choosy.

      You're too picky.

      What's the difference?

      Tracey didn't even bother to look at him this time as she maneuvered the car into a tight parking space.  Pretty much the difference between staying home on Thanksgiving night, cuddling in bed with a hot guy, the two of you sharing one more piece of pumpkin pie together because who cares about the calories, you've already found someone... or coming out in the middle of the night on Black Friday Eve to go shopping with your bestie Tracey!

      Aiden just sighed.  What else could he do?  When Tracey was right, she was right.  And she never let anyone forget it, either!

      Where was I?  Oh, yeah... Tracey started up again.  Let's start with why we're doing this so we can focus on our goals.

      It was Aiden's turn to side-eye his friend across the front
