Michele and I aren't done yet though. We have two more books in R.O.O.T we're going to try to put out by November. Jaqueline's Quest and Exploiting Scotty. So stay tuned.
Now, without further ado, here is Extracting Mateo!
Blurb:
Noah Hanover doesn’t mix business with pleasure—ever.
His relationship and subsequent marriage to Mateo Aquino, hasn’t even been a
blip on his team’s radar. He enjoys the peace and quiet when he’s able to come
home to his husband and telling anyone would destroy his secret double life.
High school history teacher, Mateo Aquino, loves his
job and his kids and is always willing to help anyone in need. When a man
approaches him appearing lost, Mateo is thrust into the middle of a war he had
no idea was happening around him.
In order to save Mateo’s life, Noah must expose the
one thing he liked to keep tucked away—his marriage. With the help of Noah’s
teammates, John “Tex” Keegan, and two temporary new recruits for R.O.O.T: Scotty
“Ears” Reisner and AJ “Two Hands” Hoover, Noah will set out to find his
husband.
However, when the suspect escapes, Mateo and
Noah are thrown into a new reality where Noah’s job is exposed, and the things
Mateo took for granted are destroyed. Can Mateo accept Noah’s double life? Will
Noah be able to track down Mateo’s kidnapper before he strikes again? Or, are
they once again, running out of time?

Excerpt:
The door to the examination room opened, and there stood Noah.
He’d removed the paint from his face, but his clothes were the same. Mateo
didn’t know this man. Yes, it was his husband, yet not. He raked his gaze over
Noah. He always appreciated his muscular body. Always enjoyed the hard lines
and the way his lover cradled Mateo’s body to his. He figured Noah had a gym
fetish or had seen Mateo’s admiration and continued to go to please him.
The corner of Noah’s mouth kicked upward. The bastard. He should
hate his husband. “I see Doc Rae got you fixed up.”
Mateo sniffed as he slipped off the table. “Shouldn’t have had
to.”
The cocky expression on Noah’s face disappeared. “You’re
absolutely right.” Noah brought one of his arms out from behind his back. “We
found this while clearing the building. Thought you could use it.”
His bag with his initials emblazoned on the front—a present from
Noah after he’d graduated with a Master’s in history and found his first
teaching position. The well-worn leather satchel went with Mateo everywhere. It
was like a security blanket of sorts. A way to keep a piece of Noah with him,
even when his husband wasn’t home. “Ev-everything’s inside still?”
Noah nodded. “Computer screen is trashed, but the hardware is
still intact. Scotty and AJ are working as we speak to get the hard drive into
one of our heavy-duty laptops. Your notes and paperwork from your students are
still there as well. I-I couldn’t find your glasses though.”
“I can get those,” Rae said. “As long as you can tell me who your
optometrist is.”
“It’s Dr. Gibbs at Virginia Beach Optical,” Mateo replied.
“Perfect. I’m sure Asher can get them expedited to you.”
Mateo let out a breath of relief. “I am still furious with you.”
Noah held up his hands. “He good to go, Doc?”
She nodded. “He is. I gave him instructions for tonight. Tomorrow,
I’ll check on the stitches—see how he’s mending.”
“Thank you,” Noah said. “I appreciate it.”
“You’re both welcome, she replied then hesitated.
“Spit it out,” Noah grumbled.
“Nothing,” she stated. “Mateo, remember to keep your stitches
moist.”
“I will.”
“And, Noah?”
“Yeah, Doc?” Noah glanced at her.
“Be gentle,” she said while grabbing something out of the drawer
beside her. “Also, be safe.”
He cocked a brow as she closed the distance between them. “Always,
Doc.” She placed several foil packets into his hands, and Noah roared with laughter
before leaning into Mateo, who stared at the packaged disks in his husband’s
hands. “Should you tell her, or should I?”
