The four Stroud brothers were all born into magic, and when they all come of age their powers will be revealed. It all sounds like a fairytale, but not all magic is good. Their mother embraced the darkness and paid with her life.
Finn Stroud was happy working on the family farm until the day his father announced it was time for them all to go out and find their place in the world, and their magic. He and his four brothers knew this was the tradition of the Imagi people who were meant to wield elemental magic, but Finn soon finds how ill prepared he was for the real world.
Alwin travels from town to town using his own brand of magic to get what he can from anyone that crosses his path. His luck runs out and he’s left along the side of the road in a rainstorm. Finn offers him shelter and Alwin offers to guide him in the ways of magic, but everything has a price. A dark fairytale retelling of The Four Clever Brothers.

Randy Miller is living his dream come true. His cookie business has taken off since he started it just before Christmas, and he’s in love. He never thought he’d find the love he’d always dreamed of with someone he’d known his whole life, and who he’d always thought of as competition.
Eli Canton is happier than he’s ever been. He’s living with Randy, the love of his life. They spend their nights getting to know each other better, and baking when they’re not distracted by each other. He’s proud to know Randy’s business is as successful as it is, and he’s more than willing to help him make it even better.
When Valentine’s Day rolls around, both Randy and Eli want to surprise each other. They’ve only been together a few months, but neither can imagine loving someone else the way they love each other. If they can both pull off their plans, Valentine’s Day could be even more exciting than Christmas was, and definitely full of more surprises. #friends to lovers #Gay Romance #Holiday Romance

Since Bran Tanda started working at the morgue, his life has changed. He’s spent most of his life denying his necromancer abilities, but now he knows there’s no other choice but to embrace it and learn as much as he can about it. No matter how much he hates it.
Jordan Amid is becoming more comfortable being around the dead. But they still overwhelm him and terrify him. The coldness and the heavy emotions he associates with being near a spirit are nearly too much for him to take. But for Bran, he’ll try.
Bran and Jordan soon realize there is more going on than they understand, and even Janis isn’t sure how to handle what she knows is coming for them. Mysterious markings continue to appear and unless they can learn more from the journals Bran finds at his house, there may be no hope for anyone.

Looking for a Daddy? Looking for a boy?
This Christmas Party mixer is for you. (Males 18+ only)
This could provide the perfect solution for Blaine and Davie, whose minimum wage job has left them struggling to afford any housing except a dilapidated motel room with a single bed.
It could also provide the perfect solution for Daddy Jacob, a co-sponsor of the mixer who’s decided it’s time to find a boy.
Blaine and Davie are too poor to afford transportation to the mixer, but life in the group home they recently aged out of has made them determined and resourceful, so Blaine bravely calls the number on the poster and explains their problem. Jacob has never had to worry about money and something in Blaine's honesty intrigues him, so he sends a car for them.
Daddy Jacob immediately knows he wants Blaine, but several things stand in his way. First, there's a rule that he must mix with all the prospective boys for the five days and only make his choice on Christmas Eve, and second, he has to make Blaine choose him over the other daddies and finally; he knows Blaine won't abandon Davie without a daddy of his own.

Chaotic Abyss book 1
https://www.books2read.com/Chaotic1
Cover model: Logan Blackthorn
Photographer: Wander Aguiar
Cover artist: Morningstar Ashley
Josh Gray has made bad decisions and regretted them all, but it’s the rock ‘n roll lifestyle, so no problem, right? However, karma is a bitch.
Mistake one…sleeping with the then boyfriend of the lead singer of one of the top bands, Social Sinners, which leads to Josh being fired as Ryder Hampton’s backup guitarist.
Mistake two…signing on with Nicholas Shane Management, who promises a new band that’s the perfect fit. It turns out Nick is dealing dirty, and his company collapses when he’s sent to prison.
Josh’s world is in ruins and starting over is next to impossible. Word gets around that he’s screwed over rock ‘n roll’s poster children, and he can’t get an audition. The future is now an endless stream of empty whisky bottles, and a surly server that no matter how hard Josh tries, refuses to sleep with him.
If you’ve read the Social Sinners or Maiden Voyage series, you’ll understand the tough road that lies ahead for Josh. Is redemption possible, or should he just throw in the towel and walk away once and for all?
Strike a Chord is book one in the Chaotic Abyss rockstar romance series featuring hurt/comfort, second chances, and a bartender who just wants to be left alone.

The Ringmaster Blurb:
The last thing half-fae, half-demon Ringmaster Seven needs is to hold someone captive in his bedroom, no matter how attractive he finds the young man. It’s been ten years since Seven fled the fae courts and found sanctuary in the human realm. He will do anything to protect his circus and found family. So, when Seven wakes up to find a beautiful yet feral creature straddling him and reeking of faerie magic, his only option is to bind the little minx and deal with him later.
Time is running out for Indy. It’s been almost ten years since Indy was cursed. His only hope of breaking the magic is to find his fated mate or lose his human form forever. Seeing no other choice, Indy travels with a magical circus of paranormal creatures. Only, when Indy momentarily gets his human form back, he’s more concerned about getting revenge on the Ringmaster rather than finding love.
Can Sev help Indy break this curse before it’s too late, or will he die trying?
The Ringmaster is an enemies-to-lovers, fated mates, MM paranormal romance. It is part of the Black Cat Circus multi-author series that features found family and a magical cast of characters. Each book can be read as a standalone but is better enjoyed as a series.
