'Why Choose' Book Release Situation is so meta I can't even.

Hey Strawberry fans!

Happy Book Birthday to my new release twins and Betrothed to the Yeti!

Our first new release twin is the Earth Girls are Easy to Dominate anthology, by Marilize Roos, Casia Pickering, Ella J Black, Aramis Moon, and me. If you recognize those names, they were in the Milk Me anthology with me last summer and you know this book is hot, hot, hot. My story, Independence on a Stick, stars Jenny, the hot dog vendor in a 1980s mall food court. She’s abducted by an alien spaceship collecting human women for experimentation. When she wins the heart of the commander, she learns she’s a natural submissive whose need for freedom from her oppressive religion has reached a boiling point. What will happen when she’s returned to Earth with a souvenir? Find out in the Earth Girls are Easy to Dominate 1980s alien romance anthology.

Our second new release twin is a spicy romantasy crossover, Leprechaun’s Lucky Hucow. Not only is this book part of the K!nkt0ber series of novellas, but I decided to make it into the Hucows of Magmell trilogy. If you are a subscriber to my Patreon, you’ve already read the next book in the series, Little Fae’s Riding Bull. I just fell in love with the dim-witted herd and their magical world of Fae, orcs, ogres, goblins, centaurs, and leprechauns. In these books, you will find the milky kink of hucows & hubulls, discussion of eldest daughter syndrome, found family (err…herd) with chosen members, and all the consent you love in a Marilyn Barr book. These aren’t your typical hucow novellas. Leprechaun’s Lucky Hucow is 99c  until October 15^th so grab your copy now.

I can’t believe my first monster brides book released two years ago. How the time has flown! Betrothed to the Yeti is the book that started with an IG DM from SC Principale….where I thought she was the hashtag police. She opened with commenting on how I posted on #MonsterMonday about the Chuchunya…and I went off the rails. It’s funny now that I look back on it. I’ve learned and grown through my participation in the Monster Brides.

Thank you for being on the ride with me for Betrothed to the Yeti, Marrying My Moth Lady, Hooking Captain Teeth, Tied to Ms Krampus, and all the spin-offs in the Time for Monsters and Monsters in Uniform series. Check out the latest Monster Brides book by SC Principale, Falling for the Orc All-Star.

Speaking of Marrying My Moth Lady, it has 45 star ratings/reviews on Amazon. My goal for 2025 was to coax all my standalone books to 50 star ratings/reviews. If you read Marrying My Moth Lady on Kindle Unlimited or bought the eBook in the last SYKD, would you mind leaving a star rating? Amazon considers them equal with written reviews (although those help me become a better writer) so a click of the stars would help me reach my goal. If you bought a physical copy of Marrying My Moth Lady, you can still give it a review on Amazon without getting in trouble. How? Include a photo of the book on your desk, in your hand, or as part of a spooky tablescape. It proves to the Amazon bots that you bought the book. Easy Peasy, and I would be so grateful to you for helping me reach my goal.

Thank you so much for celebrating a huge week of book birthdays with me. Whether you want to be abducted by aliens, whisked away to Magmell, or comforted by an old favorite, I hope I can provide an escape from this world when it gets too crazy.

That’s why I write. When my son’s illnesses took over our family and there seemed to be no hope in sight, I turned to reading. I devoured Lora Leigh, Christine Feehan, Christine Warren, and Joey W Hill books like candy. They took me away from the situation long enough for me to recharge and fight another day. When a panel of nine doctors said he would never dress himself, hold a crayon to color, or live independently, he beat the odds. Now my son is a high school sophomore, looking at colleges to be a dark comedy author (yes, dark. If you think my books are dark, watch out…his books are more like comedic horror.) My hope is that I give a momentary escape to you through my books, so you can do brave things too.

Blessed Be and Let Magic Find You,

Marilyn Barr
