Curious
By Leslie McAdam
IOU, Book 4
I’m desperately attracted to my husband.
Which wouldn’t be a problem, except he’s straight.
What happened is, my longtime crush/hero got badly injured saving me from my evil ex-boyfriend. When I found out he (my hero, not my ex) didn’t have health insurance, I did the logical thing: I proposed. To my surprise, he said yes.
I knew that Camden wasn’t interested in me like that. This deal was always meant to be temporary—just until he healed and could get his own insurance and I found a place to stay, since I’m not moving back in with my ex. No feelings involved.
Except Cam kissed me at our wedding ceremony, and ever since, we can’t seem to stop kissing. He says he’s curious what sex with a man would be like, but I don’t want to be another straight guy’s experiment.
Still, Cam is so kind and beautiful, with his dark eyes and tousled curls shoved into a backward baseball cap. His patience makes me want to throw out all my carefully crafted rules. And don’t get me started on how his first instinct is to protect me …
But I’m scared if I open my heart, I’m going to get hurt. Again.
Can I risk telling Cam how I feel before our deal ends? Or should I let him go and lose the best (fake) relationship I’ve ever had?
Curious is a stand-alone contemporary M/M romance novel with a marriage of convenience and bisexual awakening. It features Shelby, a receptionist who’s never met a vision board he didn’t like; Camden, an internet-famous contractor; and a hasty wedding for medical insurance reasons. Happy ever after guaranteed.

Exclusive Excerpt:
A jolt of panic tears through my body faster than I can hide it, and I can tell Shelby sees. “I don’t want problems like that, either,” I say, trying to keep my voice steady, “but it’s tens of thousands of dollars that I don’t have right now. All because I stepped wrong.”
Shelby shifts his weight. “But isn’t your health priceless?”
“Yeah, but … I guess I’m just hoping it heals on its own.”
“What if it doesn’t, though? And besides, you should have health insurance in general. Someone needs to check your blood pressure and whatever else.” Now he’s really getting going. “I’m going to start looking for low-cost health insurance for you.”
“You don’t have to do that.”
He bites his lip, then grimaces. So he is still hurting where Evan hit him, which makes me want to do things to put his ex in as much pain as I’m in. Or more. “Don’t be so stubborn. You know there are options.”
“I don’t know. Maybe. But won’t they require a physical or have a waiting period? And this is now a preexisting condition, so I don’t know if it would be covered.”
“I wish I could just get you on my insurance,” Shelby says. “It covers preexisting conditions. We have a terrific plan. Noah and August made sure of it. I think it’s because they do so many extreme sports, they wanted to make sure they were covered for everything imaginable—and because they’re such good guys, they wanted all their employees to have the same benefit.”
“That does sound nice.”
“It’s going to be open enrollment in the fall …”
“But I’m not your dependent or part of your family.”
“Maybe you could sign up through Reyna or Charlie.”
“I don’t think you can include siblings. I’m not sure. I think it’s only spouses and children.”
“Spouses?” Shelby looks me straight in the eye. “Then marry me.”
