Two men walk into a gender clinic…and the rest…is history.
OSCAR PETERS HAS NEVER GIVEN MUCH THOUGHT TO WHAT HIS FOREVER MIGHT LOOK LIKE.
When Oscar meets Aaron at the gender clinic on the morning of their top surgeries, it feels like a stroke of fate, but weeks later, Oscar still hasn’t heard from the stranger and he hasn’t stopped thinking about him.
In a twist of luck, Aaron tracks Oscar down on a gaming server and they start texting back and forth, day and night, leaving Oscar irrevocably hooked.
Several pancakes, coffee dates and dinners later, Oscar and Aaron still can’t get enough of each other, and Oscar can just about picture a happy life full of farmers’ markets, sweet treats and lazy afternoons. More than this, a life full of Aaron.
But life is always cooking up one storm or another, and when hardship comes knocking on their door, Oscar must decide whether he’s in this for the long haul; in sickness and in health.
A Queer T4T Contemporary Romance that will stay with you long after you’ve closed the cover on the final page. Knitting Needles is a heartwarming romance set to a backdrop of found family, identity and the one cardinal truth–that whatever life may throw at you, love always wins.
The Characters
Oscar Peters
For the first time in his life, Oscar believed in more fairy tales than just the one where the frog became a prince.
For the first time in his life, Oscar believed that people could be happy.
That Oscar could be.
Aaron Thake
“Maybe it’s fate, then, that we met each other today of all days. […] Feels like it, anyway.”

Luigi
Lu began to purr almost instantly, bumping his head against Oscar’s shin. He had come a long way from the scruffy street cat Oscar had found sniffing at the garbage in the alley two weeks after he’d moved in. His fur was all velvet now, black and shiny with a pretty white stripe going down his chest and eyes like the yellow moon on the cover of the storybook Oscar had favored as a child.
