Hello!

A very brief note to let you know the Love is All charity anthology is now available! All proceeds support the Matthew Shepard Foundation and Equality Texas, so it's a wonderful cause. I'd appreciate your support if you have a few dollars to spare.

The fifth edition of Love Is All features nine brand new stories from bestselling and award-winning authors, including BL Maxwell, Chantal Mer & Susan Scott Shelley, Connor Peterson, Gabbi Grey, Nic Starr, R.L. Merrill, Sean Michael, Sophia Soames, and Xio Axelrod.

They celebrate the universal human right that is to love and be loved. All proceeds from the anthology will go to two organizations that support and defend LGBTQIA+ rights: the Matthew Shepard Foundation and Equality Texas.

The anthology will only be available for a limited time.

My contribution to the anthology is an 18,000 word short story set in the Rustic world. Liam is a secondary character in the first book, Rustic Melody, and gets his happy ending in Rustic Miracle.

You’re not good enough. Don’t rock the boat. Don’t upset your father. These are the words Liam heard growing up. Because if you don’t behave, if you cause drama, or bring people down, they leave. To cope, he became the good-time boy, the life of the party, the guy who’s always upbeat. That is, until he’s forced to reassess his life.

Motivated by a photo on social media, Liam heads to the coast to visit an old boyfriend. What he doesn’t expect is to run into his childhood best friend, and for the sparks to fly. Connecting with Russ again is a miracle. Now Liam needs to embrace the opportunity and make changes in his life or risk losing everything that’s become important to him.

I hope you enjoy Liam's story.

Happy reading,
