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

Pitch Perfect

Coming 5/17/2024

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.

Triadic: Danubian Book 3 by Charlie Godwyne

https://mybook.to/triadic

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

Little snippet:

"I don't know if I'd want us to have separate rooms," Ember signed. "If we're together, don't you want us to truly be together, or are the sperate rooms so we can have pickup partners, because I don't want that either."

"The suggestion of two cabins was more for your comfort since we're only a month into sleepover weekends," Duncan explained.

The moment he'd finished speaking, Ember began signing again. "When is it? How long? My cousin Starla can take of Boo, Bacca and The Brady Bunch for us. I don't want to do pickup play though. I know we've agreed to leave things vaguely open, but I don't want anyone besides the two of you. It's okay if you want to play with others as long as you don't ask me to watch. I'd be jealous and bratty and that isn't how I want to be with you."

"I don't think you could ever be bratty," Duncan replied, while Randy started snickering.

"That's because you've never seen him jealous before," Randy said. "I made the mistake of kissing a guy one night not long after we first started playing together and ..."

He was interrupted by more rapid signing from Ember. "It wasn't just some guy, it was Conner Greenlow and he's an asshole!"

Postscript

Kedgetown Book 1

A magical bookshop holds the keys.

When Mason Chynoweth inherits an old house in small-town New Zealand, he hopes to discover what happened to his great-great uncle Lewis after he returned from the war in 1945. Mason’s first encounter with the property is thankfully reassuring—his sensitive psychic powers aren’t triggered and he has a calm sense of coming home.

Elijah Whitaker arrives in Kedgetown for an extended visit with his aunts. He’s quickly drawn to Mason and offers to help him try to find some answers in the dusty old house. It soon becomes clear that Mason is keeping secrets, but Elijah has a few secrets of his own. Like his closely guarded knowledge of the hidden supernatural world, and the fact that many of the townspeople are psi and supernaturals.

What is the connection between the house and Postscript, the town’s enigmatic bookshop? Mason’s glimpses of the past give some clues, but not enough to make sense of the puzzle.

When a hidden journal comes to light, the true story of Lewis’s journey is revealed, and his path and Mason and Elijah’s begin to intertwine.
