The Boys AUDIO is LIVE!
Dec 13, 2025 10:44 pm
Hi everyone! The Boys Audio is out now. Guy did an amazing job, the Icelandic accent is spot on and I really love working with him. I also have a new preorder! It's a short story that was previously in an anthology that I'll release on New Years Eve. It's called Midnight Fireworks and its about two men who meet at a NYE singles mixer.
Digging should be done in a few chapters then I'll edit and release it and we'll move onto the next one. I'm not sure if it'll be paranormal or contemporary, but I usually do one then the other the next round. SO, as soon as I figure it out I'll let you know.
Digging Chapter Twenty-Nine https://dl.bookfunnel.com/5l68kwwldq

New to Audio!

Rory Smith has been playing bass for Blinding Light since the beginning. Sure, he left a few times temporarily, but he’s always gone back to the only life he’s really known. It was all fun and games in his twenties, but lately he wonders if there’s something more out there besides traveling show to show.
Kai Marshall has always been a huge fan of Blinding Light, but the real reason he goes to every show he can sneak into is to get a glimpse of their hot bass player. Everyone else worshiped the lead singer Easy Rian. When they found out, he was out and proud, and in a relationship with the new guitar player, many hearts were broken. But not his. His heart only beats for Rory, the white-blonde haired rock god that he can’t get out of his head.
Rory’s played the rockstar game for many years. Not one time in all those years has he met anyone who made him feel the way the cute guy off to the side with the haunting blue eyes does. He’s always kept his heart on lockdown, but maybe it’s time for a jailbreak. His dreams have faded, but they’re not completely gone.

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.

Remember When
A night to remember, a confession, and a lifetime of love in this small town, friends to lovers Christmas romance.
Andrew Lawson’s life in Sacramento has turned from being everything he dreamed of growing up, to a lonely place where finding someone special to share his life with is impossible. When the first person he meets on returning home for Thanksgiving is his childhood friend Link, it’s a reminder of happier times when his whole future lay in front of him. Agreeing to a drink before heading to his parent’s place is a way to reconnect, and a great way to start the holiday.
Link Stanton never considered leaving the small farming town he grew up in, but he misses Andy more than he’ll ever admit. Secretly lusting after a friend is bad enough but being in love with him is so much worse. One drink with friends seems harmless enough, after all, catching up on old times can’t be a bad thing, until beers turn to shots, and Link reveals how he really feels.
Everything could change, and if Andrew doesn’t remember Link’s heartfelt confession, they could carry on as friends. But, if he does remember, this could be either the worst, or the best, Christmas of all.

Grumpy Sunshine Truck Driver Hitchhiker Daddy Kink Hurt & Comfort MM Xmas Romance Age Gap
Thirty-year-old Benson McCoy hides behind a veil of precision and routine, his cab a sanctuary of order where every item has its place, and every stop is timed to the minute. Beneath his tight-lipped smiles and mechanical schedule lies a man aching with loneliness, haunted by the time he never carved out for connection. As he hauls a load of toys cross-country from New York to Los Angeles, trapped in a cycle of work and his father’s expectations, Benson quietly yearns for something or someone to disrupt his solitude. He doesn’t expect that someone to be Kyle Foster, a charming storm of disarray who might just upend Benson’s rigid world and uncover the tenderness he’s tried so hard to bury.
Twenty-two-year-old Kyle, impulsive and reckless, runs from the chaotic mess of his own making with the sounds of sirens faintly echoing in the distance. Kyle shows up on the shoulder of some frozen NYC highway, hitchhiking toward California with half a plan and a backpack full of chaos. If anyone needs a daddy, it’s Kyle. He asks too many questions, laughs too loud, and doesn’t know how to shut down his heart or his mouth. Kyle’s presence is a messy explosion of honest emotion, impossible to ignore his whirlwind of unfiltered energy.
They hit the icy roads together—two strangers, one rig, and a growing tension neither of them knows what to do with. Between awkward silences, cheap diner meals, and late-night talks that get way too real, Benson and Kyle begin to crack each other open. Benson needs a boy, and Kyle needs a Daddy for Christmas. Neither of them was looking for love.

A Little Christmas 4: Beck

https://books2read.com/ALC4Beck
Series link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FG8WZWT2
Find all my A Little Christmas books here: https://books2read.com/rl/ALittleChristmas
Stability wasn’t part of Beck’s vocabulary until he reached the legal age of eighteen and had to fend for himself. Young, not so naïve yet well aware of his best…assets, he did what he had to do to survive. But what Beck desired above all else was a daddy who’d love him and his needy, unfiltered little side.
Crispin Knight was a workaholic, and that was putting it mildly. Boys came and went, and he was fine with that. Whenever he was home, he’d head to Cordes and find one to play with until it was time to leave again. That worked well until his friend Stanley’s boy Jobe brought his best friend to dinner one night.
Will a bunny-loving boy with a knack for saying the wrong things at the most inopportune times tame an overworked Daddy and build a forever with him? Or will he be hop, hop, hopping away with a broken heart?
Beck’s story is part of A Little Christmas: Season Four, a multi-author series. Each book in A Little Christmas is a standalone but why not read them all and see what our silly boys and their protective daddies are up to?

Can a young omega reindeer shifter and Santa’s number one elf find love amid the chaotic demands of the North Pole Christmas season?
Alpha Keir is a serious elf in charge of Santa’s team of flying reindeer. Navigating the spacetime continuum is no small feat, and he must see to it that everything is in order to conduct a single night of massive gift delivery. There can be no mistakes.
Fallon was born on a snowy night in December and left in an ice drift to die. He is rescued and raised by elves. Because of his difficult beginning, he can’t fly. He’s worked hard with the elves who serve Santa, making toys, but his first love is math and science and he studies hard in his off hours. He hopes to join Santa’s team at ground control. It would be the perfect job.
Keir is the big boss Fallon must try to impress to get the job he wants. But everything goes wrong when Fallon finds his attraction to Keir fogging his mind and sending him into the throes of heat. Worse, a big storm is brewing and it’s affecting the continuum.
Can two very different men save Christmas and find love all at the same time?
