The Hamad family! Your typical ruler-class Arab family from a small kingdom (Satra) near the Gulf of Arabia... well almost. The family and kingdom is mostly made up of Arab businessmen (Lions) and their weaker lovers (Cubs). The Lions, in this fantasy series, are the alphas; dominant over other men... mostly. The next generation of Hamad men intend to blur the line on that dynamic.
This series started with my first published piece, Emerson and the Lion. It follows Emerson, a deaf college student, as he makes his way to Satra and meets Ali. He falls into the world of Satra's premier business family and learns why he was brought there.
The next series, Lincoln's Pride, focuses on Lincoln, a young athletic guy from a small mountain village north of Los Angeles, who meets Ali's youngest brother, Samir for a job internship. He falls in love with the older, alpha man who shows him a world he could never imagine.
The third series, Kasper's Den, is in progress. It focuses on Kasper who lands a role on a gay dating reality show filmed in South Africa. While there, he meets Amir, the youngest son of Emerson and Ali. Amir struggles to balance the expectations of his Arab father with his desires for a more equal relationship with the blonde boy he loves.
