A steamy, slow-burn MM romance novella set in the wild heart of the South African bushveld.
When the new lodge manager arrives at the luxury Limbavati Safari Lodge, seasoned game ranger Erik knows immediately: trouble has a name, and it's Timothy Collins.
Tim's reputation precedes him. Stoic. Sharp. Disgraced. Sent down from a scandal involving a fatal incident in Zambia, he's been given a second chance-but Erik isn't convinced he deserves it. What begins as a territorial standoff between two powerful, prideful men becomes something far more dangerous when they're forced to work together on a high-profile wildlife documentary shoot. And then there's the tent. One tent. One bed. One night that changes everything.
Set under the molten skies of the South African bushveld, Crash of Rhinos is a high-heat, emotionally resonant novella about two alpha men circling each other-professionally, personally, and sexually. Sparks fly. Boundaries blur. And somewhere between testosterone and tenderness, something vulnerable begins to take root.
As tensions escalate in the lodge, Erik and Tim are thrown together on a late-night rescue mission that forces them to confront the demons they've been trying to outrun. In the aftermath, a confession breaks the silence. A kiss breaks the stalemate. And a night of slow, scorching intimacy breaks them both open.
This is not a story about falling gently. It's about the impact of collision-the emotional kind. The kind that leaves bruises. And maybe something beautiful beneath the wreckage.
Before they helped Cody find himself in Breaking Open the Sky, Erik and Tim had to break each other open first.A Crash of Rhinos is the prequel to Andrew Brown's acclaimed novel Breaking Open the Sky, a deeply emotional MM romance set at the same safari lodge. While it can be read as a standalone novella, fans of the novel will love discovering the charged, unforgettable origin story of two of its most magnetic characters.
