TITLE: Stopped

AUTHOR: Jay Leigh

SERIES: Welcome to Windhaven #1

PUBLISHER: Rainbow Brigade Books

RELEASE DATE: 9/9/2024

BLURB:

In the quaint town of Windhaven, where autumn leaves blanket the streets, and the air is crisp with possibility, two estranged childhood friends find their way back to each other.

With his heart set on becoming the town supervisor, Elijah returns home with dreams of bettering the community. But beneath his confident exterior lies a decade-old hurt stemming from a friendship that ended too soon. William, now the town’s steadfast sheriff, wears the badge of duty, but beneath it all, he harbors the same pain—and the same love—that once bonded them together.

As Elijah campaigns to win over Windhaven, he must first confront the past he left behind and the man who still holds a piece of his heart. Amid cozy coffee shops and golden-hued landscapes, Elijah and William navigate the complexities of their rekindled connection, the town’s gossip, and their own personal obstacles.

TITLE: Across Space and Time

AUTHOR: Kit Barrie

SERIES: Tales from the Tarot

PUBLISHER: Self Published

LENGTH: 260

RELEASE DATE: 9/9/2024

BLURB:

A monster stalks London’s streets, but is he friend or foe?

Hugh Danbury knows there are monsters in the world; being a constable with London’s police has shown him that. When young homosexual men are found murdered, no one cares enough to investigate except Hugh, who has had to hide his own proclivities toward men in conservative Victorian society. In addition, there are sightings of an ephemeral creature people are calling Spring-Heeled Jack. Is this who has been committing these atrocities?

Upon confronting the mysterious Jack, Hugh learns that sometimes love can be found across space and time and that fate can bring two people together for a reason. But he also learns that there is one thing that can tear love apart: death. And it’s coming for him.

TITLE: Complete Me

AUTHOR: Beck Grey

SERIES: Love in the Pacific Northwest #6

PUBLISHER: Self Published

LENGTH: 335

RELEASE DATE: 9/9/2024

BLURB:

When it rains, it pours. And right now, it’s a freaking monsoon.

Bjorn:

After my parents’ deaths, I devoted myself to raising my younger siblings. It meant growing up fast, but I had to keep the family together. Romantic relationships weren’t a priority. My siblings had to come first.

It takes my near-death experience for me to reprioritize yet again. I need to stop meddling in my siblings’ lives and focus on me. Only, I’m not sure I remember how. Then Kaino Nieminen and Xander Neilsen walk out of my past and into my hospital room, and maybe, just maybe, the universe is finally cutting me a break.

Xander:

I live to fill eager students’ minds with the wonder that is Dickens and Austen, to debate the merits of Shelley, and dive into the scandalous roots of the Bronte sisters’ novels. Woe betide the graduate student who doesn’t find English Literature fascinating. I have no patience for unenthusiastic students, or issues letting them know. I’ve been called sharp-tongued, defensive, and dramatic. As those are traits of many main characters in my beloved classic novels, I take it as a compliment. Though it doesn’t win friends and influence students. Or Deans in the English department. Or romantic partners.

Except for Bjorn Osouf. Our fleeting but passionate relationship burns in my memory, like the glowing embers of Manderlay. When the fool plays hero and almost gets himself killed, I take it as my sign to reconnect. As expected, there’s still a spark between us. What I don’t anticipate is the imminently fascinating Kaino Nieminen, or my inconvenient attraction to them.

Kaino:

Making personal connections is a challenge. I’m no introvert, but I need time to really get to know someone, to trust them, before they’re a friend. As a non-binary, touch-averse, demisexual, it takes even longer for anything romantic to develop, and believe me, most people aren’t that patient.

There’s only been one person who cared to try. And when Bjorn almost dies it’s the shove I need to reconnect. Before I know it, I’m in Bjorn Osouf’s hospital room, and the instant reconnection between us has me eager to give things one more try. Then Xander Neilsen walks in and throws a wrench into my plan.

TITLE: The Viscount’s Rancher

AUTHOR: Andrew Grey

SERIES: Cowboy Nobility #2

PUBLISHER: Dreamspinner Press

LENGTH: 231

RELEASE DATE: 9/10/2024

BLURB:

Viscount Collin Northington has spent his life under his father’s thumb. When his friend George and his cowboy husband, Alan, offer to let him tag along to the US for two weeks, Collin jumps at the chance to get away. Perhaps the open ranges of Wyoming will put his problems into perspective. He even dreams of meeting a cowboy of his own.

He doesn’t expect his dreams to come true.

When Tank Rogers returned home after his military service, he took over the family ranch the way he knew he was meant to. Now he’s the only one left, but he likes the solitude. Even so, he has no excuse to object to putting up Alan’s friend for a few weeks in exchange for some help around the ranch—it wouldn’t be neighborly.

The feelings he has for his blue-blooded houseguest aren’t exactly neighborly either.

Once Tank realizes there’s more to Collin than upper-crust manners, suddenly his solitary life holds a lot less appeal. But in the long term, Tank doesn’t fit into Collin’s fancy society life any more than Collin fits into Tank’s down-home and dusty ranch… does he?

TITLE: The Laughing Game

AUTHOR: AE Lister

SERIES: Parlor Games #3

PUBLISHER: Pride Publishing

LENGTH: 285

RELEASE DATE: 9/10/2024

BLURB:

When people are placing bets,

maybe you’re not so straight after all.

Angel

Barnett always assumed he was straight. Sure, he’d had an occasional fantasy

about sex with a man. But he’d never contemplated having sex with two men,

until he met Gideon Foster and Vihaal Petrovsky.

Now he can’t

get them out of his head, and the casual friendship that’s developed between

them is heading into unknown territory. It seems like everyone he knows,

including his aging mother, has known for years he’s ‘not so straight’. And it

turns out that Gideon and Vihaal have been deliberately trying to seduce him.

But

they’re married, and Angel isn’t sure about sex with men to begin with. It only

takes a few instances of physical intimacy with Vihaal and Gideon, who seem to

live a very kinky life with few boundaries, for Angel to finally accept and

start to explore his bisexuality.

But can Angel be a third to

Vihaal and Gideon’s twosome? They seem to want him. But the two of them are

kinky as hell so not only is Angel embarking on a same-sex relationship for the

first time, he’s also being initiated into the kinky world of dominance and

submission. And since Vihaal is a die-hard Dom, it looks like Angel had better

get used to submission—a mindset that comes surprisingly easily.

TITLE: Airs Above The Ground

AUTHOR: Rachel Langella

SERIES: Carnival of Mysteries

PUBLISHER: Self Published

LENGTH: 310

RELEASE DATE: 9/10/2024

BLURB:

As a member of the Flying Galliers in the Carnival of Mysteries, Mario Gallier has remained an eternally young and carefree teenager for over a hundred years. When the Carnival stops for a time on a magic-sparse world, Mario finally meets a man for whom he wants to grow up. Unfortunately aging takes time, and the Carnival doesn’t linger anywhere for long.

Ilya Mirov was part of the greatest aerial straps duo in the world, but after losing his husband and partner Derek to cancer, he retired from performing to take a role as coach for the next great Circo Del Artes show, Capriccio. Yet men who are strong enough for the demands of the aerial straps are few and far between, and Ilya despairs of finding anyone who can handle his choreography.

Fate — and the Carnival — bring Mario back to Ilya’s world and to Circo Del Artes. Ilya is blown away by Mario’s talent and offers him a job. Elated, Mario believes he’ll have the chance to make Ilya see him as a man, not a child, and win Ilya’s heart at last.

Yet overcoming Ilya’s grief is only one hurdle in Mario’s way. Someone is preying on Circo’s paranormals, and Mario’s own hidden nature begins to surface. Ilya doesn’t believe in magic, and he doesn’t understand why Mario is driven to protect those who came from the Carnival. Dark forces press in from all sides, putting both Mario’s and Ilya’s lives at risk. Yet Mario knows that he alone can stop whoever is taking his friends, as well as find the killer who will stop at nothing to destroy both Mario and the man he loves.

TITLE: Trash Panda

AUTHOR: Alex Silver

SERIES: Shift Work #3

PUBLISHER: Self Published

RELEASE DATE: 9/10/2024

BLURB:

Seb

I’d give my best friend, Rollie, anything he needs from me. After all, he gave me a place to live when I needed space from my family. It doesn’t seem like a big deal to share my prescription with him too. We share practically everything else these days, so why not help him out? Not like anyone else is willing to help shifters like us.

Only my condition is getting worse and I can’t seem to hide it anymore. That’s not the only thing I can’t hide; somewhere along the line, I fell for Rollie, but how could he feel the same about me when I feel like garbage?

TITLE: The Stargazers of Copper County

AUTHOR: May Archer

SERIES: Copper County

PUBLISHER: Self Published

LENGTH: 80

RELEASE DATE: 9/10/2024

BLURB:

There’s nothing wrong with admiring a work of art, or so I tell myself…even when the admiring is more like peeping out my bedroom window, and the work of art is the shirtless, sweaty, body of the man who’s been mowing my lawn once a week every summer for years.

After all, looking is all it’ll ever be, given that Theo Ross is theoretically, sort-of my employee, thirteen years younger than me, and a permanent resident of O’Leary, the town right next to Copper County, where the Observatory House–the vacation home my stargazing grandfather built–is located.

But when Theo peers in my window and catches me… er, mid-admiration… all bets are off.

Because once we start talking, I learn that Theo is so much more than someone pretty to look at. He’s smart, funny, and incredibly talented at creating art, not just being it.

Suddenly we’re trading logic puzzles and drawings as coded messages, I’m inviting him over for dinner and stargazing, and I can’t help wondering if what the two of us have found together isn’t just a short-term thing…

But something that might have been written in the stars for both of us all along.

*This story was previously available as part of the Summer Nights 2024 promotion. No new material has been added.

TITLE: Not Not Normal

AUTHOR: Peter E. Fenton

PUBLISHER: Lorimer

LENGTH: 130

RELEASE DATE: 9/11/2024

BLURB:

Jordan and Nathan couldn’t be more different, but when order and chaos collide, opposites attract. Jordan is a bit of an oddball at school. He likes rules, routine, old sci-fi novels, and is often the victim of his bully’s torment. When new student Nathan joins the school, he wears down Jordan’s walls and, with his love, empowers Jordan to stand up for himself.

Nathan’s parents are going through divorce, and at a new school in a new city Jordan provides him with the stability he can’t find at home. Through their friendship and eventually their romance, Jordan embraces his newfound self-confidence and proclaims his love for Nathan in front of the school. Each is just what the other needs.

Chad is skeptical from the beginning, and believes Vincent is setting him up to fail with the eyes of the country watching.

But Chad’s not alone in Vincent’s game. He has recruited two other players, Lucinda Hastings, Harriet’s sister, and retired Detective Inspector James Poole who Chad learns had a relationship with the missing girl.

The clock is ticking on Vincent’s time, and he tells Chad a secret.

Four words he’s saving until the end.

Four words that will bring about Chad’s downfall…

RELEASE DATE: 9/12/2024

BLURB:

Hockey and football coaches on a collision course….

Lemon

With years of hard work, I’ve made the Rainbow Dorset University Unicorns football team the pride of the state. My reputation speaks for itself, so the school stays out of my way, and that’s how I like it. If they can’t handle my sparkle, they have no business in my shine.

Now there’s someone new on campus—a washed up hockey player hired to whip the team into shape. The school had the audacity to cut my budget to pay him!

Needless to say, I’m furious. He just made an enemy he definitely doesn’t want. But why does he have to be so gorgeous?! Why does he have to have a beautiful wife and a perfect life? And why can’t I keep my hands off him and just yell at him like I intend?

Hansley

I was directionless when I retired from hockey. So I jumped on the offer from Rainbow Dorset University to be their head hockey coach. The campus is like nothing I’ve ever seen; full of rainbows, community, kindness, inclusivity. It feels like I’m in a brand new world—a better world—and I’m excited to be a part of it.

Everything is amazing until I meet Coach Lemon Frost, who clearly despises me, though I don’t know why. He’s definitely out for my job. But then he keeps kissing me and sending my entire world spinning on its axis.

I can’t tell if he hates me or wants me. The line is blurred. All I know is Lemon is about to make my entire world implode when I tell my wife I’ve been having an affair. Yet… I think I’m here for it.

RELEASE DATE: 9/12/2024

BLURB:

Viktor

The message from my brother lies bold and bright on the screen.

This will be it.

Four words that could mean the end or the beginning. And for many years, as long as my sister was safe, I haven’t much cared which. But as my gaze falls on the woven thread knotted at my wrist and the rough diamond of a man sleeping beside me, I realise everything has changed.

Ranger.

I want more than a hot summer with him. A handful of stolen nights. I don’t deserve him—no one does. But true to the fear I’ve carried since I met him, I can’t give him up.

We survive together, or we die.

And if we live?

I will love his divine heart forever.

AUTHORS: Riley Hart & Devon McCormack

SERIES: Peach State Stepbros #2

PUBLISHER: Self Published

LENGTH: 247

RELEASE DATE: 9/12/2024

BLURB:

ASH

All stepbrothers need Step Don’ts.

Colin and I have ours.

Like, don’t pit our parents against either of us. Don’t hog the TV. And definitely…

Don’t.

Keep.

Secrets.

These rules have done more than help us keep the peace between us.

After all these years since our parents got together, I can’t imagine my life without Colin.

To most people, he’s the hot, straight tight end for Peach State.

But to me, he’s my backward-cap-wearing, football-loving, piggyback-ride-giving best friend and fellow Alpha Theta Mu frat bro.

Life’s pretty incredible living together at the same frat house, but suddenly, I find myself keeping a particularly naughty secret.

I tell myself Colin wouldn’t want to know what his bi bro does in private, but then why do I feel like I’m committing a huge Step Don’t?

COLIN

There’s nothing I’m more of an expert in than my stepbro, Ash.

He’s a quick-witted, nerd-boy genius who’s always there to help a friend cram for a test or capture bugs for me when they invade my space.

He’s my favorite person.

Making him happy gives me a rush…but for the first time, he’s keeping a secret from me.

When Ash cops to his Step Don’t—his new extracurricular of doing dirty things on camera—I’m confused.

He is too, so we work together to figure out why this excites him so much.

In places we’re likely to get caught.

After all, what’s a little exhibitionism between stepbros?

I didn’t even realize I could be into guys—or be so intoxicated by these new experiences—but exploring my bisexuality with Ash is the best thing that’s ever happened to me.

And with each touch, each time we up the stakes, I discover I want more than just Ash’s body.

I want his heart too, even though that surely must be the biggest Step Don’t of all.

In the heart of Sin City, two men on opposite sides of the law collide in a dangerous game of power, passion, and betrayal.

But when an enigmatic security guard named Hawk is hired to work at his nightclub, Isaac finds himself distracted… and inexplicably drawn to Hawk, despite his best efforts to resist.

Special Agent Dallas Bradley’s mission is clear: infiltrate the Hellhounds and bring their leader, Isaac Thoreau, to justice. Posing as Hawk, Dallas is determined to uncover the secrets of the Thoreau criminal empire. But as he delves deeper into Isaac’s world, the lines between right and wrong blur, and soon an undeniable attraction grows between the two men, forcing Dallas to question everything.

Walking away before he’s compromised would be the smart choice, but Dallas can’t resist Isaac’s magnetic pull, even if it means risking his life.

As love and duty clash, only one question remains: will Isaac and Dallas survive the fallout?

BLURB:

Is love even enough?

“The first time Alberto watched a revenge flick, he was so mesmerised; he discovered something about himself: if the retaliation in the second half of the movie was satisfactory enough, there was no amount of abuse he couldn’t stomach in the first half.

Catharsis, he found out it was called.

Alberto was fond of that word.

Catharsis.”

After spending the Christmas holidays together, Mathias and Alberto return to school disenchanted, and convinced of the other’s indifference.

BLURB:

Demons made great mannies. I’d know, I had one…

When I hired Calux to be my son’s caretaker, I didn’t think there was anything strange about him. On the contrary, he was perfect.

Calux was good at his job, and my son Gunner seemed to like him. The fact that he was a man also helped since it meant no pesky feelings would get between him and his job.

Or so I’d thought.

When Calux told me he was a demon and I was his fated mate…everything changed.

My plan had been to stay single and raise my son, at least until he was a little bit older, but when Fate intervened, I found myself falling in love in spite of all my best intentions.

BLURB:

Jules

Kai. He’s become my weakness. My purpose in life. I knew I was never a good man, but Kai has tipped me over the edge for the lengths I’d go to for him.

He’s a mess, a beautiful mess, and he wants me. I’ve never been attracted to a man before, so this is new territory for me. But it won’t take long for me to break. I want to fight him, punish him, and adore him.

Oh yeah, and most importantly, he’s my step-sister’s son.

I may not be his Uncle in blood. But this is wrong.

So wrong.

But we can’t help ourselves.

Kai

It’s been years since I last saw Jules, and when he shows up to right the wrongs in my life, the crush I had years ago hits me tenfold.

Jules is not who I remembered. He’s controlling and suffocating.

But he’s everything I want in a man. Protective, rough around the edges.

My need for him erases all logic and moral decency. I need him to breathe.

I don’t care about anything else. I would give up my entire life and everyone in it to have him.

BLURB:

It’s not a real case, he’s not my boyfriend, and we aren’t partners.

Three lies I told myself for survival.

After ten months of shamefully stalking and showing up randomly on Tallus’s doorstep at midnight (for reasons), the sinfully hot records clerk decided he’d had enough of my games.

In fact, he went out of his way to bring me the most ridiculous case (it was not a case) on the planet as an excuse to push me over the line (he wanted a date). Our arrangement (hooking up) didn’t suit him any longer.

Could I say no? Of course not (this was Tallus).

Five days, I told him. Five days to prove his silly theory, then we were done.

Little did I know, Tallus had a deadline of his own.

Investigating a mind-controlling-murdering psychic was hard enough (because it was not a thing), but resisting Tallus’s charm was the real challenge.

It turned out, I was wrong about a few things.

The case might be a case after all.

Tallus had potential as a partner.

And after all was said and done…

I wasn’t sure I could let him go.

BLURB:

I’m a guy to put down roots. Most of the foxes in my den were born there, found their mate there, and will take their last breaths there. Not me. While other teens were fixing up cars, I found an old mini-school bus and turned it into a home. The second I graduate, I leave, wanting more than to see this country. And for ten years, it’s the life I dreamed it to be, but now? Now I want more.

When my van breaks down in a small town, I take it as a sign that maybe it’s time to stay in one place for a while. I expect to get bored and ready to move on once it’s fixed, but the longer I’m around the owners of the motel I’m staying in, the more I want what they have— a family. When they tell me about how they met, I sign up for the Male-Order App right away. It’s not like I have to say yes to anyone, right?

To everyone’s surprise, including his own, Orsino accepts Ethan’s offer and takes him home, giving him a place in his own room.

But after getting his heart broken by a boy he genuinely liked, Serge is facing a crisis of identity. To continue being who he is only seems to lead to loneliness and heartbreak. Maybe he needs to change, to be truer to himself. The bad boy attitude is just an act, after all.

As he navigates this crisis with the help of Bram, his best friend, he starts receiving a nightly visitor—a cute ghost boy with gorgeous eyes, who appears for only a few minutes in the deepest, darkest depths of the night. Serge is desperate to talk to him, to get to know him, but any attempts at communicating with the ghost are met with silence. The boy doesn’t seem to even know he’s there.

To build that bridge and communicate with the ghost, Serge must do the thing he least wants—enlist the help of Victor and Igor, boys he used to tease mercilessly. It’s a gamble and the stakes are high, especially given the fact that life has taught Serge one thing and one thing only…

Nobody love an incubus.

When Oliver applied for a job in the Hell dimension on a whim, he didn’t expect it to turn his whole world—or his heart—entirely upside down.

Recently graduated at twenty-six, and two months behind on rent, Oliver Barnes is desperate. So desperate, in fact, that he applies for a job in the Greed district of Hell’s Pentagram. But when he misses his train and, subsequently, his job interview, he stumbles, instead, upon a strange little coffee shop in the middle of Purgatory’s barren desert—and into an unexpected opportunity.

It isn’t the job he came to Hell for, but maybe it’s exactly the job he needs.

As he navigates the demon dimension and tries to survive the ridiculous shenanigans of his unholy co-workers, Oliver soon falls head-over-ass for a tentacled lawyer with electric fingers and a deadly-sharp grin.

2-4-6-8, Who Thinks Cooper Howard’s great?

Everyone but me!

I’ve been busting my backside for three years as one of the handful of male cheerleaders in the league and it takes Cooper “Coppertop” Howard five minutes to knock me back down to the status of laughing stock. All of my hard work for the cheer squad’s fundraiser up in literal smoke thanks to his size twenty feet and lack of spatial awareness.

You’d think the brand-new cornerback the team shelled out an insane amount of money for would be able to navigate tight turns better but the pile of charred pom poms and Austin Troopers mascot plushies begs to differ.

When Cooper tries to make it up to me, I do the only thing I can: Tell him where to stuff it.

But he’s determined. And sincere. And… okay, he’s really hot and he’s really winning me over.

Maybe accepting his apology wouldn’t be so bad? Not if it means repairing my image and comes with a side of

hot, sweaty football player in my bedroom…

In a universe where Regen can prolong life and health for centuries, death from anything other than violence or accidents is rare. People work, people play, and people…get bored. Garrett Caractacus, a terraforming scientist and coddled general’s son, is doing all of those things, but the boredom is winning out. He needs a new challenge, something to take him away from the glamour and glitz of the life he’s always known. Something different.

Something hard.

A trip to the Fringe world of Pandora, where he’ll be part of a team of scientists ensuring that the planet is livable for the colonists headed there, sounds like just the thing. The colonists are naturals—people whose bodies reject Regen, who die of everything from an injury to a disease to old age. Ugh, sounds traumatizing. Garrett resolves to stay far away from them…but a young boy named Cody and his father, Jonah, get past the walls around Garrett’s heart.

Soon Garrett will have a choice to make–return to the ease and comfort of a life in the Central System, or stay on Pandora and live, love, and make a family with people he knows won’t be with him for long.
