When One Door Opens
Logan Sellers's parole officer has issued three commandments: stay sober, stay employed, and stay out of trouble. At first Logan thought those three simple rules would be easy to follow. But that was before he accepted a side job assisting his boss’s housebound agoraphobic nephew, Caleb.
Caleb is deceptively normal for a guy who hasn't left his apartment in three years, and his friendly, caring personality tugs on heartstrings Logan didn’t know he had. But hitting on his boss’s nephew is asking to be unemployed. Logan has enough problems with booze on every corner and a supervisor trying to jump into his bed. He doesn’t need to work out how to free Caleb from the anxiety that keeps him in his apartment; he needs to keep his nose clean, attend his AA meetings, and make a fresh start--alone.
If only his heart would get with the program.

Dreamspinner Press Amazon All Romance What People Are SayingValentina Heart (MM Good Book Reviews)"This is JD Ruskin’s first book and she certainly opened with a bang. Characters with issues, a compelling story line and excellent writing will most certainly push When One Door Opens to the top of many reading lists."
Red Licorice (Gaylist Book Reviews)"Reading this book made me uncomfortable at times, Caleb’s paralysis was written so vividly, but I loved the story so much, and the main characters were so easy to relate to, I didn’t let it stop me. I wanted to see how Caleb got better. After some terrifying experiences, and with Logan’s help and that of other caring souls, Caleb starts to turn things around. His attempts to get well will have you rooting for him!"
Val Kovalin (Obsidian Bookshelf Blog)"This book gave me wonderful escapism because the smooth writing, complex characters, and realistic problems made me believe in it. It kept me turning pages. Both Caleb and Logan are appealing men – especially Logan, whose dialog and thoughts provide the flashes of humor throughout the book that are a nice counterbalance to the serious subject matter."

FINDING MATT When six-year-old Matt Wilson and his Shih Tzu, Pixie, step out of the Stanton Community Hospital and disappear, his desperate parents convince Jaron Greenberg, a local pet psychic, to aid the police in the search. Jaron specializes in finding lost kitties and fixing problem pooches. He isn't prepared for a case with so much at stake. And as soon as he starts, the abilities he's had since childhood begin changing and growing in unexpected ways. Paulo Silva is a veteran detective new to the small town of Stanton. As the low man on the totem pole at Stanton PD, he isn't happy when the chief assigns him to babysit the pet psychic instead of actively working the missing child case. As Jaron uncovers clues, Paulo starts to wonder if he might be the real thing. Or maybe it's just his testosterone reacting to what he’s sure is mutual attraction.
