Sheriff's Secret (Brigs Ferry Bay Book 1) Kindle Edition
When you’re the sheriff of Brigs Ferry Bay, certain things are expected of you.
Marry a local girl, settle down, have a few kids. You know, the small-town dream.
But I’ve got a secret I’m terrified will get out.
I’m gay.
Not bi. Not curious. Not confused.
Just gay.
So, settling for that dream won’t be happening.
If this secret gets out, the people I serve and protect, especially my father, won’t be accepting.
I’m not brave like my high school sweetheart, Kian.
The day he came out was the day I had to let him go, and with it, love.
I’ve done a great job of pretending I’m perfectly fine being single. Until a villainous and annoyingly charming new B&B owner, Dante Kincaid, rolls into town. The spark between us is electric and undeniable. He wants to give me a taste of what he has to offer, and better yet, he vows to be discreet. I’m too selfish to refuse.
But my secret is still a heavy burden, leaving me handcuffed to expectations and unable to fully grasp what I want—him. History has a way of repeating itself, but this time around, with Dante, it’ll hurt a lot worse.
I have to decide if I’m going to let love slip away again or if I’m going to finally fight for it.
***Brigs Ferry Bay is a steamy MM romance series. While each book can be read as a standalone, in order to get the full experience, they're best read in order. Enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, hurt comfort, age-gap romance, and so much more. Fall in love with the charming small-town gay romances of Brigs Ferry Bay...***

- Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2020Format: KindleVerified PurchaseAuthor K Webster starts off a new Series with Sheriff’s Secret and what a Fantastic start it is. We are introduced to the town of Briggs Ferry Bay and who best to meet first is The Sheriff Jaxson Bell.
Jaxson Bell has lived his whole life in Briggs Ferry Bay taking over the job from his father, but no one knows is that he hides a secret from the town and his family but mostly doesn’t even want to admit to himself who he really is , that is until he meets Dante Kincaid the newest owner of the BB in town.
Dante is a man who is not only proud of who he is and doesn’t hide the fact but is willing to help Jaxson come to terms with who he is.
Dante & Jaxson chemistry is off the charts steamy, but Dante will not hide who he is for anyone, watching them come to terms that you have to be happy with who you are and not worry about other people opinions that just might help Jaxson see that Dante is the man for him and he will stand beside him no matter what.
This is just the start of this series but you will want to meet more people of this quaint town once you see the words The End.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2021Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThis book was an enjoyable start to a new series. Small town setting, a closeted gay sheriff and an angry out of towner who is not particularly welcomed with open arms. There was a lot about the blurb that sounded appealing enough for me to pick up this book and it was an enjoyable ride.
Overall I enjoy K. Webster's writing, but it's not a given. Sometimes I found her books a bit disappointing, though maybe it's also because the blurb always gets me started with high expectations. Anyway, I did enjoy this one. There's a lot of drama going on, maybe a little too much, but it was also hot and the characters were interesting.
Jax is the closeted sheriff, who had a highschool fling that ended because he was too scared to come out of the closet. Of course he and Kian were just teenagers, but it's sad to think you lose someone because you aren't ready to be yourself around the people you call family, especially since there's a sensing they won't accept you. His father's remarks make that clear enough, and Jax has been afraid to be his true self because he doesn't want to be a disappointment to his parents. But it never works to force someone out of the closet when he's not ready.
Dante is the one that comes from the big city and is ready to settle down in a small town after his father's death. He and his sister Shelly are opening a B&B and their brother Callan attends the local highschool, where he is bullied because of his sexuality, and it makes Dante question if he made the right choice. There is some more homophobic bullying going on, which makes for a nice suspense side story.
When Jax and Dante meet, they start off wrong, and their first sexual encounter is one filled with angriness and "I-don't-like-you-but-I-want-you" vibes. They have hot chemistry, though, and slowly this 'one-time-thing' turns into more than they both were looking for. I would have liked it if they had stayed enemies a little longer, though. And Dante calling Jax 'boy' annoyed me a bit. Jax wasn't submissive like that - he could go full on alpha just as much as Dante could!
There's quite some drama going on, but to me that's part of the charm of a small town romance. There's a lot of gossip, a lot of curiosity and people knowing all there is to know about each other. It's not easy to fit in when you come from out of town. Specially when you are gay and the town has a homophobic mayor (Jax's father). I'm not sure how much we'll see of him in the following books, but let's say I hope it won't be too much. He was not a character to like.
I had to think about how to rate this book. There were some annoyances, but all in all I did enjoy it. It's a well written story with hot mc's and likable secondary characters, so 4 stars it is.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2022Format: KindleVerified PurchaseSuch a good story. So emotionally wrought. Jaxon has hidden himself away for years, afraid of how his family and town will react to the town sheriff coming out of the closet. So much so he lost the one he loved. (On an aside I feel like kian and Jaxon were equally at fault due to no one should try to force someone else out of the closet. So they were just at different stages in life). Then Dante dame to town, guardian to his younger brother and sister renovating a building into a B&B. I loved Dante and his smug devilness. Just his suave and mild attitude of New York entitlement. But under berthing he has a heart of gold. Watching their chemistry explode on the pages with each encounter where they push each other’s buttons was amazing. Loved the undertone stories of hunting a vandalized as well as a stalker committing hate crimes. Can’t wait for more. I hope we get stories for zak, callan, Rhett and more. Such an adorable town with captivating characters.

5.0 out of 5 stars This series is so good!!!!!
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI absolutely loved Brigs Ferry Bay and I wish the town actually existed. I liked that Dante took his family to live there, thinking about creating a new life for his family, especially for his baby brother Callan. Unfortunately, things didn't go as well as he imagined. Intolerance and hate crimes were handled carefully. And the Sheriff is a gentle giant, with terrible parents, but a big heart and great friends. Jax and Dante had great chemistry and I loved their story. They started out as enemies but ended up together in a really nice way, with the Sheriff by his side. I also liked seeing a little more of Mr. Frosty and Rylan. I can't wait to read the books about Kian, Cormac, Cato, Callan and Zak!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love Brig’s Ferry Bay series!
Format: KindleVerified Purchase“Dante. Villain smiles. Teasing smirks. Taunting words. Sexy, and funny and loyal.”
I love the Brigs Ferry Bay world. Small town romance, lovable well developed characters and storyline. This was an easy and enjoyable read.
Ms. Webster brought Dante and Jax to vivid life, along with the secondary characters throughout. You could almost smell, feel and reach out to touch them all.
I adore the enemies to lovers build up between Jax and Dante. The suspense over crimes in their small community. My heart broke for Callan and Cormac along the way.
Can’t wait to continue this series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Boy!!
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseWhen this Author does MM she DOES MM!! LOVED IT! From start to finish, from the first word to the last i loved every second and now i'm hungry for more more more!!
Growly Sheriff and the City Slicker couldn't be any more perfect if they tried! Dante moved his family away from the Big Apple to BFB to start fresh after his Fathers death and a painful break up. He doesn't expect the hostility of the locals including the local Sheriff so when he pushes the Sheriff's buttons right back he's surprised by what he see's under the surface. The heat, the longing, the vulnerability, the closeted scared guy the Sheriff really is. Not being his type at all Dante is taken aback but decides to go with it for one weekend fling only.
Jax is just as surprised by the heat between him and the City guy. Still hung up on his high school love he doesn't understand his feelings for the vilainous Dante.
As the weekend fling turns into weeks long fling Dante and Jax get more than they bargained for as the protective walls crumble for both of them. They become each others crux as small town life gets in the way. Hate crimes start going on all around them and Jax is determined to get to the bottom of it and maybe get the happy ever after he never dared to dream of.
I know, i just know this is going to be an all time favorite series! Book 1 and i'm hooked! The whole town set up has me dying for the next book.
These two have my heart! What a way to begin this series. The character build and progression was pure perfection. From Dante mending his broken heart to Jax crawling, then smashing his way outta that closet! I bloody loved it! When these two got together it was an absolute inferno all over the page. Goodness me were they hot. The lust and greed and alpha showdowns had me sweating and panting like a 20 stone marathon runner! Phewwweeeee! Those guys are YUM!!!
Besides the main characters the residents of this town have my interests piqued! Theres soooo many i need to know more about! Kian, Cato, Callan, Zak, Cormac, soooo many!
I have to say the world building start to this series is top notch, i'm there. My heart is there, i'm invested in this small town, i need all the books!
Absolutely brilliant! I'm so excited i'm gushing all over the place! Highly highly recommend! Theres everything you need and want in this story. Hot Alphas ✔ Steaming hot chemistry ✔ Drama ✔ Excitement ✔ Action ✔ Gripping plot ✔ Family ✔ Friendship ✔ Cute animals ✔ Love ✔ The Happiest of endings ✔ go buy it! Seriously its genius! Eeeeeek bring on Kian!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Loved this emotional, enemies to lovers MM romance
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseEmotional, sweet, angsty, very sexy enemies to lovers MM story with a good slice of suspense.
Sheriff Jaxson (Jax) Bell is hidden so far in the closet, its surprising he hasn't found Narnia! Can the hot new City Slicker who has moved to Brigs Ferry Bay with his siblings, drag the emotionally scarred Sheriff out in to the open? Or will Jax's fears coupled with Dante's own past hurt leave them both high and dry, despite their crazy hot undeniable chemistry?
I really enjoyed this and the feelings and emotions that came out, not with just these two hot, alpha men, but their families too. With two vigilantes on the loose, one cruel and dangerous and one adding some much needed colour to the somewhat stuck in the mud small town, plus a host of fabulous characters, I'm looking forward to more from Brigs Ferry Bay
4.5 rainbow stars
