Overview

An MM enemies-to-lovers romance set in the wild heart of the African Bush.

When a disgraced new lodge manager arrives at the exclusive Limbavati Safari Lodge, seasoned game ranger Erik immediately feels the shift. Timothy Collins is sharp, guarded, and unrelentingly in control—everything Erik can’t stand… and everything he can’t seem to look away from.

What begins as a territorial power struggle between two dominant men simmers into something far more dangerous when they’re forced to share a tent on a remote wildlife filming assignment. In the heat of the African bushveld, resentment collides with lust, and one long night under canvas blurs every line they’ve drawn.

But raw attraction is just the spark. Beneath their armours lie past wounds, unspoken truths, and an emotional vulnerability neither man dares to show. As tempers cool and passion ignites, Erik and Tim must decide if what began as friction can survive in the light of day—or if it’s doomed to disappear with the dawn.

Set against the sweeping, sun-drenched landscapes of the South African wilderness, A Crash of Rhinos is a steamy, slow-burn MM romance filled with emotional tension, forced proximity, enemies-to-lovers chemistry, and a satisfying, hard-won redemption arc.
