A Matcha Made in Hell
By F.A. Ray
Boyfriend Café, Book 1
Who would have guessed my high school bully could be such a good boy?
Rhett
The worst day of my life was my first day of high school – the day I met him. Spencer Marsh. The guy who would shove me into lockers for the next four years.
I never expected to reunite with him in college. I definitely didn’t predict that sparks would fly. This new and improved Spencer is subverting all my expectations, but I’m not sure if that’s a good thing.
Hooking up with a guy I used to hate is turning into more than just a shameful secret. I should put a stop to it. I should want to put a stop to it. So why don’t I?
Spencer
I’ve been trying since graduation to be different from the guy I was in high school, but seeing Rhett again stirs up old emotions – and an overwhelming desire to atone.
Nevermind that that atonement seems to be happening in some … compromising positions.
My frat brothers and father would never accept what I’m doing, but that doesn’t seem to be enough to stop me. I’m finally the man I want to be, the person I’ve been repressing for most of my life. And it’s all thanks to the guy who used to be the target of my worst impulses.
I only hope Rhett will give me a chance to prove I’m not who I used to be.
A Matcha Made in Hell is an MM enemies-to-lovers romance with first time gay experiences, found family, a bully who just wants to show he’s changed his ways, and spicy open door scenes.

Exclusive Excerpt:
“If you think I’m still the kid you pushed around in high school, you’re wrong,” I say. “I have a life here, and it’s a damn good life, and someone like you is sure as hell not going to march in and ruin it. I don’t know why Britt dumped you, but it seems to me like she dodged a bullet. She deserves better than you, and the next time she’s in my café, I’ll be more than happy to tell her that.”
“You shit—”
“Shut up,” I snap, and, remarkably, he does.
I’m buzzing, riding a sweeter high than sex or drugs could ever provide. When I push, Spencer stumbles back; when I spin us around, he goes. His back hits the shed and he grunts, but doesn’t fight. I might be slimmer and shorter, but not by that much. I pin him against the side of the shed with the hand fisted in his shirt and nearly shudder from the way his lips part around his surprise. A piece of me wants to shove him down to his knees, but there’s no way he’d go along with something like that.
At least, that’s what I would have thought at the start of this night. Right now, however, Spencer’s chest heaves under my hand. His throat bobs as he swallows. His eyes do another swift flicker, going right to my lips, and that’s not a look any straight guy has ever given me.
What the fuck is going on here?
It’s messed up, so messed up, but when I have my high school bully cornered like this, I can’t help but push.
“Maybe Britt was right,” I say. I slide a little closer, only my fist keeping us apart. “I never would have guessed it, but she’s a smart woman. Maybe she saw something I missed.”
“Shut up,” Spencer says.
It’s weak. I swat away the denial with a roll of my eyes.
“You really are pathetic,” I say. “All this time, and you were just some closet case. God, I should have known. No one gets that twisted up about other people being gay unless they’re worried about themselves.”
“Bullshit,” he says. “I’ll—”
“You’ll what?” I cut in. “You don’t really look like you’re in a position to do much of anything. I’m not scared of you, Marsh. I haven’t been in a long time. So if you think you’re going to pull the shit you did in high school, I’ve got really bad news for you.” I eye him up and down, noticing the bulge in his pants. “Or good news, depending.”
