The Things We Lose is DONE!

Aug 27, 2023 4:45 am

Hi everyone, once again it's been another busy week. My son started college this week, and since he's been sleeping in and going to bed late, I had to make sure he was up and ready to go. He's taking 3D animation, and a life skills class, and I'm so proud of him! So far he loves it. I hope it continues that way.

I finished The Things We Lose and my editor...because she's a very busy bee...messaged me to say it was a wild ride. I agree! I don't think there are any parts to this adventure that are slow LOL.

A Taste of Paranormal Romance

Try a small taste of three paranormal series featuring different creatures of the night. Ghost hunters, vampires, and gargoyles, all with their stories to tell. Each of them hoping to somehow find their other half in the strange world they live in.

Ghost Hunted:

Proving ghosts are real is something Jason Thomas had always dreamed of. Visiting the haunted places, he’d been obsessed with since he was a kid, and playing amateur ghost hunters with his best friend Wade, is a passion that’s only grown. As the years passed, Jason's fascination with ghosts was too big to contain, and he'd drag Wade along to different haunted houses or hotels, always hoping to see an actual ghost.

Wade Rivers has always loved spending time with Jason, even if it meant he'd have to endure another creepy, supposedly haunted location. Before he knew it, Wade's feelings for Jason deepened from friendship into something more. Unfortunately, so did his fear of the places Jason wanted to explore.

The chance to spend a weekend alone in a famous haunted house was too much for Jason to resist, and almost too much for Wade to endure. He knew going to the deserted house was everything Jason had ever dreamed of, so Wade tried to put his fears aside. But when strange things start to happen, admitting to Jason how he feels suddenly isn't the scariest thing Wade will encounter.

A friends to lovers, paranormal romantic thriller.

Burning Addiction:

His days are spent doing odd jobs for cash to pay for his habit. One night, he overdoses and nearly dies. Doctor Lucas Martel works nightshift in the emergency room at Eureka Hospital. He’s reclusive and brilliant at his job, and he’s all too aware that not everything in Eureka is as it seems. He’s also a vampire, one who chooses to blend in with humans rather than feed on them. Something strange is happening to the homeless and addicts on the streets of Eureka; many have gone missing or ended up dead, and others have overdosed on drugs so strong, no human cure can counteract them. Not normally concerned with human tragedies, the vampires can’t stand back and let this play out, or they risk exposing their world to the humans. Brennan must face his demons, and Lucas will discover many things about himself, and what he believes to be true: a seedy underground of rogue vampires and drugs that must be stopped, at any cost. *Warning: contains references to drug use and abuse.

Stone Under Skin:

Ankit has lived many lifetimes. Once, long ago, he was made of stone, and marked with symbols and sigils meant to safeguard him and allow him to protect and serve others. He’s a living gargoyle now, cursed to live as a human; always watching, at all times aware, and constantly searching for his fated one.

While walking home from his job as a librarian, Ethan Lewis is beaten and robbed. Ankit stumbles upon him, and instantly recognizes him as the man he’s fated to. He helps him back to his apartment, and after tending his injuries, watches over him.

Fate has woven their lives together for centuries, but in every lifetime, they could never live freely, or love each other as Ankit has often dreamed of. To change their destiny, they’ll fight together with other gargoyles, and a young watcher, who is unaware of the tremendous power she possesses. This will be the last battle against their creator, and they’ll either die fighting for their freedom, or survive to live the life they’ve always yearned for. MM Paranormal Fantasy

(Includes book one from The Valley Ghosts Series, The Consortium Trilogy, and the Stone Series.)

Dane Jones has been touched by the spirit world. Once his powers were awakened by a cursed object, he’s tried to find peace with them. But the forces from beyond don’t play by the rules, and soon he’s wondering why he thought he had any hope of control over them.

Griff Warren loves Dane, and no matter how weird things may seem, he’ll always be there for him. But strange occurrences make him wonder if Dane’s keeping a secret, or if there’s more to the strange marks Dane bears.

Dane and Griff are thrown into more supernatural trouble than they can handle, and Janis, their psychic guide, knows it. She arranges for help from The Running Scared Paranormal guys and two strangers from the morgue, Bran and Jordan. First, they’ll lose their abilities, next they’ll have their powers challenged, and if they can’t stop what has been put into motion, no one will survive. #paranormalromance #supernatural #ghosthorror #urbanfantasy #hea

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.

Jack Vance 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 of lockdown, but maybe it’s time for a jailbreak. His dreams have faded, but they’re not completely gone.

Release date: December 5th

International: https://mybook.to/BlainesSecret

Keywords: Billionaire Daddy, Poor Boy, Daddy Kink, Grumpy/Sunshine, 5-day Xmas Mixer, Hurt/Comfort, Spankings, Cuddles, Age Gap, and HEA

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.

Can all these obstacles be overcome with the help of some Christmas magic?

Stephen Newell, aka, Seltzer – don’t ask, his younger sister is still traumatized over the whole event. Seltzer, the lead guitarist for the band Embrace the Fear was caught in a compromising position with the younger brother of the not so happy drummer from the mega band, Social Sinners, Diamond.

“Don’t poke the bear,” Stoli, lead guitarist for Social Sinners and Seltzer’s mentor warns while moving Seltzer out of Diamond’s reach. But being the jokester was Seltzer’s MO, though Diamond’s growls and clenched fists should’ve been a sign to back off.

Jeremiah Taylor grips his brother’s bicep while he and Diamond’s husband Easton do their best to calm the beast. Was the hook up with Seltzer worth it? Yes, and no.

Though this wasn’t their first time…

A Little Christmas: Orion’s Secret

Coming 12/15/23

https://books2read.com/ALCOrion

Orion Landry may have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but when his father died his stepmother no longer had any use for him. Having a stepson that was prettier than her just wasn’t acceptable. She was her plastic surgeon’s favorite patient and had spent more money than she’d ever admit to remedy that. But still it wasn’t enough to relieve her jealousy of Orion.

While Orion missed his father dearly, it was a different kind of daddy he craved. One who would take the time to learn everything he could about Orion, and one whom he would trust enough to share his deepest secret with.

Aleksander Numminen—Alex to his friends—had reached the age where hook-ups with random boys for the night no longer satisfied his cravings. He’d played out the scene at the local club and was now hungry for more.

Though there was one boy that caught his eye, the boy no other daddy could seem to tame.

Was it possible this boy could be the one?
