New Weekly Serial!
May 25, 2024 8:32 pm
Hi everyone! So far it's not too hot here in California, and I'm hoping it stays this way through the long weekend. I'm just putting the finishing touches on Living With The Dead, and that book went in a different direction than I expected, but I love it! It'll be out on June 6.
This week I have two sales, and the first chapter of Cookie which will be my weekly release this time around. If you read the Love And Hope Anthology, Cookie was in it. But I'm going to expand it becuase I love the characters. Here's chapter one: https://dl.bookfunnel.com/anv5woqb83

Ben and his new mate, Leon, left the safety of Alaska so Leon could learn to live with humans and gain more control over his lust for blood. They arrive in Eureka and stay with Ben’s friends Lucas and Brennan, another mated vampire couple. They plan to slowly expose Leon to humans and let him adjust to the constant need that haunts him.
Lucas has always avoided contact with The Twelve. That changes when Brennan is taken by a group of vampires intent on destroying one mate while capturing the other. After waiting several human lifetimes to find his mate, Lucas won’t sit back and lose Brennan. They’re all forced to seek out The Twelve, the ancient vampires who rule over all others.
When they reach the hidden fortress of the Consortium, they soon realize there’s more going on than they ever could have imagined. They’re forced to become the hunters through an unfamiliar landscape where not only are they the predators, but quite possibly the prey. #vampire, #fated mates #Gay paranormal romance

The Things We Lose
Mystical Markings Book Two
Book One: The Things We Find: https://mybook.to/TheThingsWeFIND
Dane Jones has been touched by the spirit world. Once his powers were awakened by a cursed object, he tried to find peace with them. But the forces from beyond don’t play by the rules, and soon he’s wondering why he thought he had any hope of control over them.
Griff Warren loves Dane, and no matter how weird things may seem, he’ll always be there for him. But strange occurrences make him question if Dane’s keeping a secret, or if there’s more to the strange marks Dane bears.
Dane and Griff are thrown into more supernatural trouble than they can handle, and Janis, their psychic guide, knows it. She arranges for help from The Running Scared Paranormal guys and two strangers from the morgue, Bran and Jordan. First, they’ll lose their abilities, next they’ll have their powers challenged, and if they can’t stop what has been put into motion, no one will survive. #mmparanormalromance #supernatural #ghosthorror #urbanfantasy #gayromance

Quando finalmente raggiunge Stony Brook, nel Maine, è entusiasta di arrivare giusto in tempo per provare uno dei famosi panini con l’aragosta di cui ha tanto sentito parlare.

Quando uno sconosciuto dagli occhi verdi interrompe la sua frenetica mattinata, Lance non si rende conto che incontrare Billie cambierà non solo la sua giornata, ma forse anche il resto della sua vita.

Triadic: Danubian Book 3 by Charlie Godwyne
Can love unite them as the promise of peace gives them strength?
Monks Corbi and Marit have recently parted from their partner, Wren, who answered a call to serve lantern gods in war-torn Danubian lands. While they're still heartbroken and feeling adrift, they find a man on the verge of death in the forest.
They nurse Peter back to health, and when Peter awakens, the magic of the forest still on him, he too speaks of lantern gods that protect a warrior king.
As Peter embraces the two heartbroken men and promises to never let them go, powerful forces call them to a blood-soaked land with a feeble hope of peace.
Triadic is a 50,000-word MMM romance with mages and warriors in an Arthurian dark age of Central Europe in the 25th century. Although each book of the Danubian series features a different romance, due to a continuing plot the series is best read in order.

Pitch Perfect
https://books2read.com/PitchPerfect
Gage Tennison: I’ve played the role of rockstar for an eternity—or so it seems. Coming off a long tour didn’t help my attitude, either. I should have been writing instead of partaking in the perks. So, while the rest of my band enjoyed a vacation, I was alone in the Adirondacks working. I guess I deserved that.
Everyone suggested a collaborator to push me through my block but it felt like cheating. I’d never needed help before, so why now?
Sometimes help appears when you least expect it. How was I to know the gorgeous man hired as my personal assistant would be exactly what I needed—professionally and personally. It was the latter which shocked me because I didn’t notice men—not like that. Not until a guy with striking gray-blue eyes locked gazes with me and the music we created wasn’t just on paper.
Cain Bennington: I’m very good at my job. I’m organized to a fault which makes me a perfect assistant for the high-end entertainers I work for.
Another secret skill I have is composing music. I hear nuances that others miss and I also understand the theory behind the verses. I might be proficient as an assistant but I shine even brighter as a composer. I’ve never showcased my abilities—until a certain rockstar dropped the challenge into my lap and before the album was completed, I’d fallen for him.
But as the entertainment business discovered my skills as a composer, they also learned a piece of my history I’d hoped to keep hidden. Now I wonder if my past will over-shadow the music we created or the relationship we built.

In this delightful story of friendship, found family, and bravery, Nicole Barger shows us that even the most different of people can become the best of friends.
Who falls for their enemy?
Kingston- I love my job. Helping others plan their perfect wedding is a dream come true. If only I could find my own boy to cherish, spoil, and love. But who wants a chubby 41-year-old with a voyeuristic side? When my friend insists I try a kinky dating app called Bears-4-U, I decide to give it a shot.
My one rule: Don't fall for the ONLY guy who reminds me of Jamison Parker.
Jamie- Kingston Foxe and I hate each other. So what if I've always wanted him? So what if he isn't the guy I thought he was? So what if his gorgeous bear body is exactly what I crave? I have a plan. With the help of a new dating app, I’ll get over Kingston in no time. All I need to do is follow a few rules.
Rule # 1: Find someone who believes in love and romance!
Rule # 2: He must be open to exploring this new kink with me.
Rule # 3: No more daddies. I refuse to be hurt by one again.
Bears-4-U is an MM Daddy romance multi-author series, featuring a host of delicious Daddy pairings. The Bears-4-U dating app is all about putting Bears and Teddy Bears together for their honey-sweet HEAs. Psst, no real bears involved. Each book can be read as a standalone, but why not snuggle up with all the bears?
