Weekend Update!
Aug 31, 2025 5:01 pm
Hi everyone! We have another new release today in the Foggy Basin series by Rain Carrington. I'll have all the links and everything in my Tuesday Newsletter that has the complete series in it. I hope you're reading them and enjoying them. I already know what I want to write for next year so hopefully we have enough interest to do a third year.
This week I watched the series Nautilus, based on 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea that I have not read. It was really good. It's a little steampunk and a little 1800s, and has a very diverse cast and lots of adventure. I haven't read much this week, I'm not sure why but hopefully this weekend I can get back to The Team by NR Walker.

Finding Isaac
Foggy Basin Season Two
Finding Isaac: https://books2read.com/FindingIsaac
Series Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DST7K6BR
Isaac Grant has lived in Foggy Basin for all of his twenty-three years. Everything was perfect until his favorite friend with benefits, Jack, met the love of his life. Sure, he was happy for Jack, but he missed him and wanted someone of his own to keep him warm at night, or to get into trouble with.
Tig Sawyer left Foggy Basin after only living there for a little over a year. He graduated from high school and moved onto an out-of-state college and, for the most part, never looked back. But memories of that slower pace always came back to him when he was neck deep in work, and his personal life.
Isaac was never looking for a relationship and was more than
happy to live his life loose and free, but since meeting Tig, he wonders why he never wanted someone of his own. He also questions why someone like Tig, who has his life together and always seems happy as hell, would want to take him on. But there’s something in the way Tig looks at him that says he’s more than willing.

Anchor Grey
https://books2read.com/AnchorGrey
Devon Grimes got his big break by filling in on drums for his uncle Glen in his band Blinding Light. Being in his own band Anchor Grey with his new boyfriend Johnny was like a dream come true. Until reality came knocking.
Johnny Brown has made every attempt to hold his band together, but nothing seems to work for long. He hopes Devon can be the glue that holds them together this time. But being in a relationship with the drummer is both amazing and frustrating.
Devon and Johnny both share a love of music and a need to play in a successful band, so the chance to tour with Blinding Light is too good to be true. But life on the road isn’t easy on a band or a relationship, and navigating both can be tricky. The road to Rocktoberfest is a minefield loaded with obstacles neither of them expect and will test their resolve to stay together or go it alone.
The boys are back in the multi-author Road to Rocktoberfest 2025 series. Each book can be read as a standalone, but why not read them all and see if some of your past favorites poke their heads in. Err…voices. Hot rockstars, stolen kisses, drywall repairs and the men who drive them over the edge. What more could you ask for? Kick back, load up your ereaders and enjoy the men of Rocktoberfest!

Looking for love isn't easy when you're an antisocial troll.
Gunnar has existed near the border of the monster world in the wilds of Iceland for centuries, only straying into the human world occasionally out of boredom. He finds many of their belongings they’ve dropped while exploring. One of those items was a cellphone and after attempting to figure out how it works, Gunnar finds an app that intrigues him, Monster Match.
Flynn Davies has worked in the lumber industry since he was old enough to apply, but working in the woods can be lonely, and he spends more and more time scrolling the mysterious app he’s heard so much about. When he begins to chat with a mysterious creature, he wonders if there could be a perfect match for him that’s not human.
The past decade has been lonely for Gunnar, and he longs for someone to share his life with, even if that means changing his life. When he arrives at Elder Ridge, he quickly realizes how different life is here, but maybe the annoying human he’s been chatting with can help him learn more about this strange new world.
Monster Match is a multi author series with amazing stories about monsters matching with the perfect human for them! This is a shared world series but all books can be read as standalones. #mmromance#monsterromance

One man was running from roots. The other was still learning how to plant them.
Clayton Robinson thought he’d found peace behind the bar of his cozy pub in Lodi, California, where the drinks flowed easy, the regulars felt like family, and the open road was just a distant hum. Relationships? Not his thing. He liked freedom too much… until he stepped into the Rainbow Coffee Shop in Stockton and met Sawyer Gallagher.
Sawyer doesn’t do first moves. He barely knows how to trust. Raised on an isolated farm, homeschooled and cut off from the world, he fled everything he knew after uncovering a family secret that shattered his past. But when Clayton notices the small bracelet on Sawyer’s wrist, the one Sawyer wears as a silent signal of hope, something shifts.
What begins with coffee turns into a trip neither planned. Along the way, laughter cracks open silence. Long-held secrets are confessed at Summer Pride Camp. And that tiny spark? It doesn’t stay small for long in a shared tent.
Sometimes love doesn’t ask for permission. It just climbs over the fences we build—and dares us to follow.
Welcome to Pride Camp where diversity and inclusion is our motto. We’ve got daddies, mommies, littles, pets and families of all kinds. So, unroll your sleeping bag, make a couple smores, and enjoy the show!

Lost in the Snow
Twenty-one-year-old Jamie is in for a rude awakening. What starts as a romantic Christmas getaway to Big Bear, California with his boyfriend, Daddy Tom, quickly devolves into a snow-covered nightmare. They've driven all the way from Long Beach, and Daddy Tom even promised Jamie a new jacket from a small boutique. But when Daddy Tom disappears after parking the car, Jamie is left stranded, his phone dead and his pockets empty.
As the snowstorm rages, Jamie waits, the chill seeping into his bones, until the store lights finally dim. Alone and without a jacket, he stumbles into the biting wind, eventually collapsing by the side of the road, tears freezing on his cheeks. Just as hope dwindles, a jeep pulls up, and a mysterious stranger offers a lifeline, driving Jamie to his cabin. But who is this man, and what will become of Jamie in the desolate, snow-covered mountains?

The scent of burning wood from the bonfire lingered in Jeremy’s hair, while a whiff of cashmere and leather clung to his neck and shoulders. Inhaling, Gray closed his eyes and hoped to find sleep easier with his boy in his arms.
“Mmm, it tickles,” Jeremy muttered, squirming to try and get away from the feel of Gray’s beard on his skin.
All his squirming did was press his backside more firmly against Gray’s c$@k, which immediately started to fill, happy with the friction Jeremy’s movements provided.
“You keep moving like that, and I’m gonna tickle somewhere else,” Gray hissed.
Should have known speaking so close to his ear would send a shiver through Jeremy’s body.
He whined and squirmed more, rolling in Gray’s embrace to peer up at him with mossy-gold eyes and a pouty expression.
“You’re a damned bed hog, you know that?” Gray muttered.
“Mmm-mmm,” Jeremy murmured as he rested his head on Gray’s arm and threw an arm around him.
Seconds later Gray felt Jeremy’s leg shift, their knees bumping as he dragged his leg over Gray’s and pinned him in place with his body.
“You could have warned me,” Gray grumbled.
“What’s the fun in that?”
“You’re gonna find out if you don’t go back to sleep.”
“What if I wanna find out?”
