Sama has three things he truly enjoys in life: the kinky club he owns, the cam shows he streams, and his best friend slash bodyguard. Not necessarily in that order.

Aníbal doesn’t understand their dynamic, but he understands sadism and he knows he has what it takes to satisfy Sama’s more masochistic needs.

It seems impossible for Blas and Aníbal not to clash at every turn, especially when the future of the club Sama and Blas have put everything into is in danger. There’s one topic they agree on, though, and that’s Sama—the boy who wants nothing but to break for them.

It’s been months since we kissed and he broke it off so we could keep our jobs, but now? Now, he’s rescuing me on the side of the road and whisking me away to a cabin in the woods.

It’s like a fairy tale, or maybe a dream, or maybe both.

We’ll be trapped for days with nothing but the food in his fridge and the tension between us.

Still skateboarding and breaking all the rules at twenty-two, my bright red hair is enough to put off any Daddy looking for a boy.

But I don’t care, I’m not even sure that I want a Daddy.

A run in with a seriously bad biker gang means I need to get out of the city, and fast.

But I’m a city boy, born and raised. This won’t be easy – in more ways than one.

Vince Armand has spent his entire life in the country. He’s rough, tough, and has no time for delicate city ways. I don’t think we’re going to get along well at all.

With a body carved from oak and the demeanor of a grouchy bear, I can’t deny how impossibly hot Vince is.

Vince says he’ll look after me as a favour to his fellow Daddy friend in the city, but with all his rules I can’t see how it will work out…

But when our mutual attraction becomes too hot to handle, it might just place everyone in Little Rapids at risk…

Brodie’s life has become a sad, lonely thing ever since his son and best friend got together— his only excitement comes from the mysterious presents that appear under his Christmas tree every year.

When his heat rolls around on Christmas eve, all he expects is a good time with his new candy cane toy. Not his estranged stepbrother dressed up as Santa Claus, showing up in his house.

Peeking through his door. At him.

It doesn’t matter that Noel can now fly through chimneys. Or that his eyes still make those dark promises. The fact remains that Noel has promised not to leave Brodie, and he broke his word.

Except Noel goes into a rut, and no contraceptives are used. Noel says he wants to make things up, though. He says he’s never forgotten Brodie, never stopped caring about him.

Despite his good senses, Brodie badly wants to believe that alpha. But he can’t risk his heart again… Can he?

Right up until a few days before the biggest show of the year, when his fiancé literally throws his ring in his face and leaves him for an accountant.

AN ACCOUNTANT.

Dean quickly spirals out of control, knowing Luka will be there to pick up the pieces. Again. It’s a good thing he has a friend like Luka.

Luka

How many more times will Luka have to put Dean together again? Staying with the band, taking care of Dean’s dog – who’s really Luka’s dog – while Dean chases after the next girl who is ‘the one’ and then crashes and burns. Again. It’s all taking its toll.

And why does his stupid heart keep insisting Dean is the only one it wants?

This time is IT. Luka is done with the Dean Drama, the soul-mates-of-the-month, even the band. He loves Dean, he has since they met, but Dean is straight as a ruler. And unless something changes, he’s going to self-destruct something Luka can’t bear to watch.

There’s only one way to find out; he has to live with him first.

Stumbling home after a long shift, Henley runs into Li. Li is just a civilian, but he draws Henley in like no other has before. A spark ignites between them that can’t help but smolder. Li doesn’t seem to know the first thing about kink, but Henley has never been more satisfied or enthralled.

Easton Belle is living his college dream: living with his best friend, underage drinking, working part-time at a local pet kennel, and running a successful social media campaign to keep a hardline theist out of Congress. However, that dream never included his horrid choice in men causing an unhealthy need to be wanted and his multiple sclerosis with its unpredictable symptoms. He also never expected to accidentally end up at a frat party that leads to a crazy drunk call and maybe the best days of his life. As long as this guy doesn’t find out about his illness, maybe it’ll be different this time.

Paul Acre doesn’t know what his dream is. All he’s ever really wanted was to get as far away from Kansas City as possible. So he did. But running away from the demons of his past doesn’t stop them from catching up to him when his new roommate, Huxley, and the annoying AF man-child who smells like spicy citrus challenge his entire perception on life. Then he gets a random call at 2 am from a number he doesn’t know, and a drunk voice he recognizes demands a knight in shining armor come to his rescue. But can he trust his thoughts and feelings? After all, trust is a weakness that’s hurt him far too many times.

Cole didn’t sign up for the Secret Santa exchange. As vice president of the company, he never does. When a present shows up on his desk, he’s sure it’s a mistake…until he opens it. There’s nothing random about this gift—the glittery turtle stuffie has been sent by someone who’s seen Cole as more than the boss…someone who’s seen his little side, and that only leaves one person: Nicholas—his secret crush.

Nicholas met Cole years ago at the local club, Collared. It was a brief encounter, but one he never forgot. Cole was the most adorable little he’s ever seen. Unfortunately, the next time they saw each other it was at the orientation for his new position, putting Cole strictly off limits. Nicholas manages to ignore the elephant in the room for three years, until he sees the perfect stuffie for his boss’s little side: a sparkly turtle. He’ll leave it as a Secret Santa gift—that’s not crossing the line, just getting real close to it.

RELEASE DATE: 11/8/2022

BLURB:

Twenty-five years ago I looked my doctor in the eye while he told me the worst news of my life. My final chance to prove that I could be a bearer for my drake was over, and I would be repudiated… marked barren. My drake said it himself, he’d turn me out and find another dette, so I made that choice for him and I ran away bearing two small blank eggs that I laid in suffering silence. For but a moment I hoped they’d be viably sized, but no.

Having no other choice, I abandoned them and hid myself away in the mountains, joining the wild dragons.

Still even now, all these years later, I have dreams about the only drake I found worthy. Even my dragon refuses to mate any other. Springtime comes and a scent of cinnamon catches me on the breeze, my fire-headed lover. “Sacha!” I want him so much, but I don’t deserve him. He comes to me with nestblossoms and sweet words, taking me and the wild pups I’ve fostered into his forgiving arms and he tells me the saddest and most wonderful news. In his hands is a strange new device, something I’ve not seen before, a tiny computer, and it’s filled with pictures of a small dette. “Leo,” he tells me.

Will I get my second chance? Will my pup understand why I abandoned him? Can I forgive myself?

BLURB:

Will confessing his deepest secret to his best friend ruin their friendship?

Sutter Thompson has spent a goodly part of his life living a lie.

That lie led him to marry a woman he didn’t love as he should while he struggled to be all that his family wanted him to be. Finally, after the birth of his son Zachary, Sutter came to see that he needed to live a life of truth. Not just for himself, but for Zach as well. The truth included coming out at forty, getting divorced while his son was an infant, and trying to readjust to being who he was born to be.

Throughout all the turmoil, Sutter’s best friend, Watley McCutcheon, stood by his side. Watley understood how difficult breaking free could be. He had done it many years ago when they were still on the same college hockey team. Sutter always admired Wat’s bravery. He also admired his best friend for many other things…his smile, his laugh, his adoration of his son, Adam, and his caring heart. Now that Watley is single again, Sutter is hoping he can unlock the final secret he’s been carrying in his heart…he has and always will love Watley.

He’d not planned to do so at the youth hockey awards, but then again, he hadn’t expected an avalanche to strand him, Watley, their sons, and several of the boys’ teammates in a cozy Colorado inn either. Maybe it’s the romantic atmosphere or the sudden realization that life is too short to harbor such strong feelings forever, but he’s ready to declare his feelings to Watley. Can they step out of the friend zone and into a romance, or will Sutter’s heartfelt admission destroy years of brotherly affection?

Entrusted with Morris Funeral Home and Crematorium, the company that has been in my family for four generations, I fear it’s going to go belly up under the growing pile of bills. But the troubles haunting me don’t end there. My son’s teachers don’t seem to understand how to work with a kid like Eddie, leaving me zero time for myself.

Then there’s Ambrose Jennings. The quirky baker is catering Delia Dennis’ wake, and I can’t seem to get him out of my head.

The last thing I need right now is any kind of romantic complications in my life. Still, Ambrose is boisterous fun and chaos wrapped up in a sexy, tempting package. Maybe one little taste of the baker’s goods wouldn’t be the end of the world..?

When Ambrose gives me a sample of the sweet treats he has on offer, both of us ache for this to become more than a taste test. I don’t know if it’s enough to let go of my reservations, or if circumstances close the coffin in their chances for any future together.

BLURB:

Anton Seiber, Master Thaumaturge and reluctant architect of the French Empire’s newest weapon of war, is on the verge of collapse. It wouldn’t be so bad if his blood wasn’t required to power the spell revolutionizing the battlefield, or if he were allowed to communicate with his friends and family, or if he could see his lover Lord Camille Lumière, special investigator for the emperor himself, more than once every few months. As it is, he’s barely holding himself together. He’s determined to make it through…until an accident in the laboratory leads to his collapse.

Camille is a loyal servant of the empire, but it will take more than a war to keep him away from Anton. He returns to find his lover on the brink of death, and it takes Camille’s special “gift” to keep him alive. He is ordered to leave Anton behind and return to service—the future of the empire, and everyone “gifted” like him, might depend on it.

There’s only one thing to do: escape to England with Anton. If only they weren’t surrounded by armed guards, dangerous magic, deadly cannons and, oh yes—a war for control of the entire continent.’

Rather than back down in the face of failure, Prince Tevra’s family only turns more ruthless, willing to pay any price to obtain the war and bloodshed they’re so desperately seeking. But they didn’t count on facing a dragon born in a volcano, a wolf forged in snow and ice, or Tevra himself, who has plenty to say about the family who ordered him stabbed to death in his own bed.

BLURB:

One life-altering kiss sets our whole world on fire.

Harlow

I’ll tell you what isn’t on my agenda for this century: finding my fated mate only to have him reject me.

In fact, having a mate and tying myself down for eternity isn’t even a blip on my radar. But the moment I meet Bailey, there’s no denying he’s meant to be mine. Everything about the gentle Welsh giant calls to me, consuming my thoughts.

The problem? He doesn’t feel the same way. One life-altering kiss has him running in the other direction, leaving me to watch over him from the shadows.

When the opportunity arises to build a friendship, I grab it with both hands. Surely being his friend is better than nothing, right?

It will have to be, especially with a clan of mages sniffing around and looking for trouble. Not unusual since I am an estranged son of Lucifer. But now that I have my mate to consider, things are a lot more serious. How can I truly protect Bailey when he doesn’t even know I’m a demon?

Bailey

I learned a long time ago that relationships aren’t for me. Nobody wants to commit to a bigger guy, especially one who craves a different role in the bedroom.

When Harlow sashays into my life, I can’t help but wish things could be different. Sure, he seems interested, but history has proven that eventually, everyone leaves me.

TITLE: What Would Baker Do?

AUTHORS: J. Haney & S.I. Hayes

PUBLISHER: Deviant Darlings Publications

RELEASE DATE: 11/10/2022

BLURB:

Truth is relative, but actions speak volumes.

Baker

I was named after the place where my parents met, the street where they fell in love, and later where my father died.

Mom refused to accept handouts and I was pretty much the same, thanks to the example she set. But it’s winter break. Normally, she’d come get me, but this time…her car is in the shop and I am out of options.

I did what many other college students were forced to do: post a rideshare request on the board in the student union. I just never expected Kellan to reach out and offer.

Is he genuine, or will this end like our last conversation-him bleeding and my hand hurting?

Kellan

Baker changed me without even trying.

He is the guilt I carry in my heart. The one person I measure myself against. Every day is a game of ‘What would Baker do?’ He had a moral compass that everyone else in my life lacked. He was fiery and passionate. He also packed a mean right hook.

That we ended up attending the same college was no coincidence. That he needed a ride, however, was. I knew his number by heart.

We met and I think I fell for him in the first hour. I’d drive him for free, just to have the chance to tell him what I should’ve said all those years before. I might have said nothing that day, but I didn’t stop my friends. See, I knew his truth, and perhaps now it could set me free.

We’re sharing a bed.

And Will just kissed me.

Is my best friend falling in love with me after all?

City boy, sci-fi novelist, and recovering pushover Scott Howe doesn’t know what to expect when he inherits his grandmother’s house outside the quaint village of Gilead, Ohio—but it isn’t an enormous bald man in nothing but tighty-whities and orange rubber boots shouting at him to keep his weed-wacker away from the rhubarb patch.

Scott has never met anyone like Phineas Robertson: homesteader, recluse… Republican. A tender—if unlikely—friendship grows over the summer while Phin and his schnauzer, Sister Mary Katherine, teach Scott about life in the country and the grandmother he never knew. Opposites attract, but widower Phin worries his secret will send Scott running faster than his politics, and Phin isn’t convinced he deserves a second chance at romance.

Scott is convinced—rural life, and his one-of-a-kind, older neighbor, is the future he wants. Before he can settle in, his mother drops a bombshell that strains their already tenuous relationship, and a cousin who believes he is the rightful heir to the property puts Scott in danger. It’ll take a lot of compromises, and even dodging a few bullets before they’re out of the weeds, but nurturing something as special as true love always takes hard work.

Alpha reindeer shifter Nick has one last delivery before he can head home to see his family for the holidays.

Unwilling to give up on his plans, he opts to risk it and make the trip anyway, which is fine and dandy until they close the highway. He heads to a local B&B, only to have his car get stuck at the side of the road. At least he’s got hooves if he needs them and won’t freeze to death.

Human omega Beckett volunteers to work over the holidays. He always does. Why take the time off when he is both alphaless and childless? Christmas is for kids, anyway.

When the storm is reclassified as a blizzard, Beckett heads home to discover a car abandoned in front of his place. Only it isn’t as abandoned as it looks and he finds himself inviting the smexy stranger to stay at his home until a tow truck arrives. Little does he suspect the man is going to make all of his Christmas wishes come true, even those he doesn’t know he has.
