Weekend Update!
Dec 21, 2024 10:11 am
Hi everyone! We're getting ready for another rainy weekend which is fine by me. I'm more than ready to stay home and get some things done. I have a book that should be releasing soon. I did not do a preorder. It's a Christmas Collection and includes, A Lot of Snow For Christmas, Try To Remember, The List, and Just The Right Chord. I thought it might be fun to have a few Christmas books all in one. So watch for it this weekend.

Nuts and Bolts
https://books2read.com/NutsANDBolts
Hudson Carter returned to Foggy Basin and now owns his family’s hardware store Nuts and Bolts. He not only gained a new business when he moved home, he also found the love of his life.
Jack Hulbert loves all the changes his new boss and boyfriend, Hudson, has made to the old, failing hardware store. But as the holiday season gets closer, he wants to do something different this year.
Jack is from a big family, while Hudson’s an only child. When they're invited to spend Christmas with Jack's family, Hudson is hesitant but willing. When the weather takes a turn there's an even bigger chance of chaos but what's Christmas without chaos?
Wrapped Up In Tinsel
Steve Reynolds prefers to avoid people, and working as a tech guy at one of the big box electronic stores has guaranteed that. He does the repairs and lets the person at the counter deal with the rest, it’s perfect. Until this year, when the store is downsizing and he’s laid off just before Thanksgiving.
Garrett Juhl loves Christmas more than anyone has loved Christmas before him. Or at least he likes to tell himself that, and while he’s making deliveries for his job, he also pretends he’s Santa. But he’d rather not admit that to anyone.
Desperate for a job Steve takes the first one he’s offered even if he’s not sure he’ll survive it. Being one of Santa’s elves at the local mall has never been something he’d consider, but he’s desperate. When Garrett goes to the mall to see this year's decorations he immediately notices the grouchy elf who even with a frown looks cute in his elf uniform. Maybe this year he could be the one who turns that frown upside down. #loveislove #lgbtbooks #booklovers #lgbtqbooks #readersgonnaread #lgbtqbookstagram #mmholiday #mmholidays #mmholidayromance

NOW IN KU!
🎄🎁 🎁🎄
O Deadly Night has returned, and our silent nights are so much more deadly. Festivities are hiding a multitude of sins, and where light and laughter should be, villains are instead. There are more than holly and mistletoe being hung in the hallways, and joy is short lived. Be careful with your holiday wishes, you might get more than you bargained for.
Join several dark MM authors as they crawl into the murkier side of the holidays while donating all proceeds to Rainbow Railroad and featuring stories by:
Here's the blurb for my short story The Boys
Syd Dufort is heartbroken when he discovers his fiancé has been cheating. Not wanting to wallow in front of his family for the holidays he decides to take the trip they’d planned as a honeymoon. Upon arriving in Iceland during the dark of winter, he immediately questions whether it was such a good idea.
Caleb Mies takes extra care to help the man he meets at the airport who is also staying at the remote hotel his family owns. Their family has a yearly tradition that’s not for the weak of heart, or those who choose to do evil deeds.
Caleb is drawn to Syd in ways he’s never experienced, while everything in Syd tells him to avoid the man who has shown him nothing but kindness. Both men are hiding secrets that will be revealed during Yule.

Jack Mathews wanted to get away from the city and enjoy some time on the slopes. He’d rented a nice cabin in the mountains and was more than ready to spend some time alone before the holidays.
Being from a large family, Ronnie Diaz decided this was a good year for him to spend a white Christmas with his dog, Chewie. He’s looking forward to some peace and quiet, but no amount of planning would have helped when the weather took a turn for the worse.
Two strangers with very different lifestyles stuck together in a snow-covered cabin with no heat or power. It might take more than a cute dog to help them survive it.

Divided
https://books2read.com/BLDivided
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.

La vie d'Andrew Lawson à Sacramento est passée de tout ce dont il rêvait en grandissant à un endroit solitaire où il est impossible de trouver quelqu'un de spécial avec qui partager sa vie. Lorsque la première personne qu'il rencontre en rentrant chez lui pour Thanksgiving est son ami d'enfance Link, cela lui rappelle la douce époque où son avenir était encore devant lui.
Accepter de prendre un verre avec lui avant de se rendre chez ses parents est un moyen de renouer les liens, et une excellente façon de commencer les vacances.
Link Stanton n'a jamais envisagé de quitter la petite ville agricole où il a grandi, mais Andy lui manque plus qu'il ne l'admettra jamais. C'est déjà assez difficile de désirer secrètement un ami, mais être amoureux de lui est bien pire.
Un verre entre amis semble assez inoffensif. Après tout, rattraper le temps perdu n'est pas une mauvaise chose, jusqu'à ce que les bières se transforment en shots, et que Link révèle ce qu'il ressent vraiment.

After being dumped by his boyfriend, spending the weekend alone wasn’t something Sam Braun was looking forward to. So, when the hairstylist that works next to his bookstore invites him to his hometown for the weekend, Sam jumps at the chance. Visiting the small town of Occident could be just what he needs to forget, at least for a few days.
Erik Thorne has lived his whole life in the same town where nothing new ever happens, and any stranger who comes to town is always a big deal. When his old friend Andy brings a friend home for the weekend, Erik is drawn to the man in a way that confuses him at first. But his curiosity about the gorgeous blond from the city gets the better of him, and he can’t resist spending more time with him.
Sam was hoping to forget his troubles when he meets Erik. While Erik can’t seem to think of anything besides the city boy with the bookstore he can’t wait to visit. Distance might not be the only thing that stands between them, as they find out admitting what you want isn’t always easy. Each book can be read as a standalone. #AgeGap, #MMRomance, #FriendsToLovers #OppositesAttract #SmallTownRomance #City/Country

- A Little Christmas3: Zachy
Who knew a weasel costume could bring so much misery? It had never entered Zachy’s mind when he accepted the part of the wicked weasel of withering wood. Now he’s stuck playing the villain while everyone else runs around laughing, learning and having a good time. He’s as trapped in his role as he is when he wanders into one of weasel traps the crew creates. There is nothing fun about being stuck while everyone else has a good time which is why he got a little over enthusiastic when Daddy Cooper took him on a special cruise where he’d promised that Zachy could play all he wanted. Turned out that playing all he wanted was a little too much playing for Daddy who hasn’t been happy with Zachy since. Christmas might prove to be another lonely one for this already sad boy who just wants a little joy in his life, Until a new sound engineer on the show notices the little boy with the sad blue eyes and immediately takes an interest. Now Zachy faces a reality he never thought possible, having two Daddies for Christmas instead of one.
Zachy doesn't’mean to be naughty, and with Christmas coming up, he's’doubling his efforts to be good, despite nagging feelings that it's’much too late for his efforts. Will this overly excitable little finally find the Daddy of his dreams beneath the tree, or will Santa skip Zachy's’house again this year, and leave him with nothing to celebrate.
This book is part of A Little Christmas: Season Three multi-author series. Each book in A Little Christmas is a standalone where every little is silly, unique, lovable, and downright adorable, so why not read them all?

Lux had been without a boy for years now. After moving fifteen hundred miles away from the site of his biggest failures, he hopes he's left his track record for failure behind him. Foggy Basin is a fresh start, a place without constant reminders of everything he's ever gotten wrong.
River is a ray of sunshine from the tips of his curly pink hair to the soles of his pink Converse. He is an unapologetic blend of sassiness and snark and he's not about to tone it down for anyone, including the colorful new Daddy who has caught his eye. Lux might be an art teacher, but River has made an artform out of making sparks fly and with Christmas right around the corner, there's nothing he'd like more than to celebrate the season by rolling up a bit of Christmas Magic after a night of rolling in the sheets.

Two Adorkable St. Bernards One lead singer terrified of canines MusicHijinksan ultimate pickle challenge a surprise reveal one superhot trio a road trip an on-stage accident Oh the things you can do with drumsticks Rocktoberfest Skintight leather pants Behind the scars Beyond the fearthere's one last chance for glory When Damaged Saints takes to the road with their new singer... anything could happen.
Last year, days after Rocktoberfest, the band Damaged Saints were onstage when a pyro accident burned their drummer and seriously injured their singer when he was hit with flying bits of burning shrapnel resulting in damage to his voice that has left him unable to continue on as the band’s singer.
He's their new manager though, and thanks to a friend from another band, they’ve got a lead on a new singer. Jagger is smokin’ hot, charismatic as hell, and so far as they’ve been able to tell, has very little in the way of inhibitions, which makes him the perfect fit for their rather snarky, salacious crew. There is just one problem: Jagger has only ever sung with cover bands and never on a large scale or even at a venue larger than a small-town waterfront festival. He’s used to having less than four feet to move around in, which doesn’t translate well when you’ve got a whole big stage to fill. With less than a month to see if he’s got some hidden moves they can draw out of him, they’re looking to use any means at their disposal and maybe even discover if Jagger is the perfect fit for them off the stage too.
Damaged Saints is a book in the multi-author Road to Rocktoberfest 2023 series. Each book can be read as a standalone, but why not read them all and see who hits the stage next? Hot rockstars and the men who love them, what more could you ask for? Kick back, load up your Kindle, and enjoy the men of Rocktoberfest!

Add in some creatively placed mistletoe and a playroom full of intriguing toys, and Gregory finds himself on a vacation of a lifetime.
Snowballs for my Valentine:
