  Murphy’s Madness
  Murphy Clover is in for the ride of his life. Maribel professes to be his
  number one fan when she finds out he secretly writes e-books. Murphy
  politely declines her attention, letting her know he’s gay. This only makes her
  more determined to have Murphy, and now she has escalated to violence.
   
  Ludo Chernov was wrongly accused of giving a mate unwanted attention,
  and now he tries his best to stay away from them. The only problem with that
  plan is that he needs the help of one of them to find his mate.
   
  Murphy knows Maribel is real. She’s hurt him twice already. When Ludo
  thinks she is a figment of his imagination, Murphy starts to question his own
  sanity. But there are a few mates who know he isn’t crazy, and they escape
  the estate to prove his innocence. Will the mates help Murphy in time, or will
  Ludo have him locked away?
