Tricked and Treated

By E.V. Anthony

Tyler Honeycutt’s life is nothing special. He spends every day typing away in an anonymous corporation with nothing and no one to liven things up. That was until a charming stranger catches his eye.

In a sea of company dude/bros, Dean Merriman holds Ty’s undivided attention. Not only is he deliciously handsome, but his naughty, crooked smile is what dreams are made of.

The last thing Ty would ever imagine doing is talking to this sexy mystery man and ruining the perfect illusion. But when Dean shows an unexpected gallant streak, Ty is positively smitten.

Already lost in a fantasy world of love’s endless possibilities, Ty can’t help but think the invitation he finds on his desk to an exclusive early Halloween bash has something to do with Dean. Where this invitation leads isn’t the only surprise in store for Ty. Sometimes you’ve got to be tricked to truly enjoy your treat.

Chapter 1: The Staircase

A cog does not concern itself with the function of the machine. It just turns. And that’s just how Tyler Honeycutt—Ty to those who knew him best—saw his days at the office.

He had worked at the large anonymous corporation for a few years. He found a position he liked more than others he’d had and stuck with it year in and year out. The desks near him were filled with an array of personalities who occasionally cycled around to different departments, but most, like Tyler, remained. They were other gears in the bureaucratic
