New Release: Before After (The Shadow City Chronicles #1) by Claire S Duffy

Congratulations to Claire S Duffy on the release of her debut urban fantasy Before After (The Shadow City Chronicles #1)
Before After (The Shadow City Chronicles #1)
by Claire S Duffy
November 26, 2022
Genre: Urban Fantasy/ Paranormal “Buffy meets Outlander”
He’s been killing for hundreds of years.

But he reckoned without her.

Kirsty has always been alone.

It’s fine. It’s what she’s chosen. People, as a general rule, are more trouble than they’re worth. It’s why God invented batteries.

But when she comes across the man being burned alive on the banks of the Clyde, she can’t just let him die. Without a second thought she batters in to save his life…

And accidentally tears the fabric of time.

Now an ancient serial killer is on the loose and only Kirsty can make him regret he was ever born.

Even if it means killing the only person who ever loved her.

Sometimes she can bloody well see all these magic destiny shenanigans far enough.

The twisty, laugh out loud funny start to a seductive fantasy series. Buffy meets Outlander with a side order of Taggart. If you like fast-paced action, Glasgow humour and women who take no prisoners, you’ll love Before Again.

About the Author:
When she’s not wandering around Glasgow dreaming up sexy vikings and tears in the fabric of time, Claire S Duffy writes best selling the crime fiction series Glasgow Kiss and the Stockholm Murders under CS Duffy. She’s also a screenwriter and blogs about the feminist dawn of Hollywood at Fully Fifty-Fifty on Substack.

Demon Moon: A Carolina Sky side story; stand-alone MM romance with demons
by Lynn Michaels
November 16, 2022
A demon can change everything – including your heart

Seth had always been on his own. Alone. He was nothing special. So why was a demon after him? All he wanted to do was finish grad school, write some poetry, and fall in love, preferably with his agent, Ken. But with this target on his back, he couldn’t let Ken close.

It was becoming too difficult to resist his client. Seth was adorable. And he was in trouble. The supernatural kind. They were in over his head, but Ken had to try and help him.

Was there any chance in hell to defeat the demon and find their happily ever after?

Supernatural MM Romance thriller with demons, metalcore bands, and a hell hound.

Friends to lovers, music, poetry and demons!

(You do not have to have read any of Carolina Sky to enjoy this stand alone!)

New Release: Standing in a Field with Horses - A memoir of equine connection by Maeve Birch

Congratulations to Maeve Birch on the release of her memoir Standing in a Field with Horses -
A memoir of equine connection.

Standing in a Field With Horses
by Maeve Birch
November 5, 2022
Genre: animal care, pets, animal psychology
A memoir of equine connection.

If you're not "boss mare" material, can you still work with horses? This was the question Maeve faced each time she interacted with a horse. If it wasn't in her nature to dominate this animal, could she be around them and still stay true to herself? The equestrian world shouted in unison, "Get after him! Tell him who's boss!" Yet Maeve couldn't. When she did, it grated against her soul. Could she successfully navigate a life with equines if her leadership looked different?

In this moving memoir, Maeve Birch explores the dynamics between traditional horse handling and her communications with horses, which often didn't align with what she was taught. In the stories shared, human issues such as codependency, lack of boundaries, impatience, violence, and fear crop up again and again, shaping numerous horse and human relationships. Standing in a Field With Horses traces the psychology, spirituality, and social dynamics of a woman trapped between obedience and self-expression along with the horses. As the practice of horse care and behavior study evolves, so too do the humans who cherish their hooved companions. They are inescapably linked together. The horses have a lot to say, if we are still enough to perceive their whispers through the demands of our human psyche. A new way of being with horses is on the horizon. Come, stand in a field and listen closely... You may hear more than you expect.

About the Author:
Maeve Birch lives on the east coast of the US with her spouse and two cats. She became interested in horses at a young age, but was never able to take lessons. Horses remained at a distance until in her mid-twenties she began volunteering at various horse rescues, leading to an outright equine obsession.

After several years observing, interacting with, and listening to various horses, Maeve's first book began to take shape. In finding the courage to voice her opinions, she realized that the horses had their own voices and opinions to share with her. Many of the initial assumptions passed down to her about horse behavior and training were not what she was hearing from the horses. In searching out other ways to exist with equines, she found mentors online and in books who shared her outlook on what the human-horse relationship could become. Physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of that relationship became clearer. The interactions between horses and humans were changing. This book became part of that shift.

The names and details of humans and horses in her books are changed to protect the identities of those at the barns she visits. Her goal is to openly document her own experience for the horses and humans who might benefit from the stories shared.

Maeve's other hobbies include gardening, identifying birds, plants and other wildlife, stargazing, and painting. She spends many happy hours puttering around in her vegetable garden and sitting on a nice rock with a good view of a meadow. Someday she plans to have her own horses, but for now volunteering, lessons, and leasing will do.

Clownfish & Corruption by Verena DeLuca
Exotic animals, small-town murder, and romance.
What more can a girl ask for?
I love animals. It’s why I opened an animal sanctuary.
But when the sheriff called me to identify a fish, I had no idea it would lead to an investigation into the death of a college freshman.
Why in the world would he swallow a clownfish? Snorkel with me as I paddle through the evidence.

Spines of Omission by Elle Hartford
A traveling aquarium has come to Belville, and Red and her friends are thrilled to get a private tour. But not everyone in town is as excited, and unexpected dangers lurk beneath the surface appearance of colorful fun. When a murderer strikes, Red will have to explore the aquarium’s hidden depths to find the truth.

Turtles and Terrible People by Rune Stroud
Rescue is her life.

New Release: Dendre by John Cherpak

Congratulations to John Cherpak on the release of his science fiction thriller Dendre.
Dendre
by John Cherpak
August 27, 2022

Six hundred years ago, humanity left a dying Earth to colonize the uninhabited planets of Aphrodite, Sobek, and Rhea. Each new world developed their own cultures and religions and lived in harmony until the Republic of Havasar depleted the natural resources on Aphrodite.

The Republic of Havasar then conquered Taltronia, planet Sobek’s sole continent. And for nearly two hundred years, it has been under authoritarian Havasaran rule.

Sergeant Jasper Ogtredder, a Havasaran policeman, recently took a job in occupied Taltronia’s Territorial Police. Victor Creo, a low-level office worker and member of the subjugated Taltronian ethnic group, is just trying to survive and get by. However, his brother, Constantine, wants to liberate their home city of Dendre from the imperial rule at any cost.

The fates of these three men collide as a vicious terrorist group and the colonizing country battle to determine who will control Dendre.

New Release: Anubis (Wolves Incarnate #2) by Adrienne Wilder

Congratualtions to Adrienne Wilder on the release of his gay sci-fi romance Anubis (Wolves Incarnate #2)
Anubis (Wolves Incarnate #2)
by Adrienne Wilder
June 13, 2022
It was supposed to be over: The Utah Facility discovered, New World Genetics dismantled, and those hunting Luca—dead.
Then strangers who call themselves Varu come for Luca for help. They claim he’s a Cana and tell him he’s the only one who can bring back their wolves.

Nox doesn’t want to trust them, then he learns people called Mah are responsible for the atrocities committed in the Utah Facility. And how the Anubis residing inside Nox will consume him and destroy Luca.

But the Varu promise they can protect Luca if Nox lets them cure him of the ichor.

Luca knows the perception of the Varu is corrupted by the tragedy that decimated their people and separated them from their wolves. He also knows the Anubis isn’t the mindless entity they believe it to be, a danger to him, or the world.

In fact, the Anubis might be the only thing strong enough to unite a warring people and protect humanity against the real enemy who wants to enslave it.

If Nox won’t listen to reason, Luca will use the Anubis to save them both. After all, Luca is Nox’s Alpha. And the Anubis is really Luca’s wolf to call.

This book is a part of a series. Please read NoX first.


About the Author:
I am a writer of contemporary and speculative fiction and artist of all things monster. I live to create new worlds and the people in them. Several of my books have been best sellers both nationally and internationally. I have also been a finalist in the LAMDA awards, the "Oscars" of gay literary works. 

I do my best to write original stories with powerful characters and emotion as well as a fast-paced plot. My goal isn't just to deliver a good story but to take the reader into the story and let them experience the characters as if they are right there with them.

While almost all my books have a romantic element, I will be the first to admit, they are not traditional romance. In fact, I'd like to think there is nothing traditional about them. And the stories I paint are done so way outside the lines of traditional genres. 

One of my favorite things to do as a writer is push the boundaries of what makes a story and to deliver the unexpected and maybe even change the perspective of the reader. 

My characters are more often than not, beautifully flawed, not always the good guy, and make mistakes. Their stories will take dark turns which, in the end, make the light at the end of the tunnel all the brighter.

If you're looking for something different, exciting, and unique, my books are for you.

New Release: The Night Blade: Indulgence Series 2 by Erin Kellison

Congratulations to Erin Kellison on the release of the second book in her epic fantasy romance The Night Blade (Indulgence #2)
by Erin Kellison
May 23, 2022
Lose yourself in the second installment of bestselling author Erin Kellison's Indulgence series, where unlikely allies must contend with savage beasts, spiteful gods...and each other to survive.

Luck isn't going Terah Crane's way. She's stuck with the prince of Fury, the arrogant scion of Pyre, who passionately hates her. Yeah, well...she doesn't like him much, either.

When a vengeful goddess captures someone Terah loves, Adomanei reluctantly joins the rescue mission to settle the debt he owes her. Enemies at heart but united by purpose, they set out upon a dangerous journey into a foreign godland to reach their quarry.

Adom's godborn talents allow him to disguise his identity, but Terah must travel under the cover of darkness, even if it takes them into the belly of a mountain beast and across a sea of bones. A cryptic clue suggests that Terah has allies among the ghosts of Phemerae—if only she can find them. But Adom doesn't trust anyone who strives against the gods.

Beset by monsters and pursued by spies, Terah and Adom are forced to watch each other's backs, learn to speak with a glance, and be there when the other falls. But will it be enough? Because a malevolent Power stalks them, utter ruin on its mind, and Adom and Terah find themselves trapped together in an intrigue of the gods that will change their world.
The Indulgence Series is a fast-paced, action-packed, slow-burn romantic fantasy set in a contemporary world of gods and monsters. If you like a fierce heroine, enemies to lovers, epic battles, worldbuilding, magic, and mayhem...this is a series for you.

"There are gods and monsters and people who think they're ordinary, but turn out to be anything but. There's betrayal and heartache and...I feel like we've just skimmed the surface...BUT I AM HERE FOR IT. *thumbs up*" — Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal (VINE VOICE)

"The characters were vivid, tangible...I was easily transported into a world packed with action, adventure, betrayals, and breadcrumb teasers that kept me on the edge of my seat. And the adventure has truly just started! Highly recommended" — Joyffree (Top Contributor: Fantasy Books/VINE VOICE)

Jason Gibbons:
As an ace sports reporter, Jason is revving up for his next big story—Ryker Brennan, Supercross star, sexy and solid. He captivates Jason like no one else ever has.

“Despite having told myself not to get worked up, I am. And it pisses me off. Ryker Brennan is under my skin, and nothing good is going to come from that.”

Ryker Brennan:
Motorcycles are his passion. He's a little sweet and a heck of a lot of wild rolled into a 250 racer who's always primed for the next big win. Then Jason Gibbons rolls into Ryker’s life, and now his wheels are spinning.

“I fell and got a mouth full of dirt. That's racing. The bike just got away from me, kind of like Jason did after that kiss. So why was I still thinking about him?”

When life gives them a gnarly track to follow, they have to get dialed in for the next jump. Will they accept the challenge?

Imogen Taylor: New art classes. New sister?! Maybe a new boyfriend... Still screwing up.

Keeping my witchy abilities secret is harder than you’d think. I only torment the deserving—like my minions at the Desert Freeze. But when a friend asks for a magical favor, what harm is a little mischief…especially if it comes with a side of romance?

It was all supposed to stay in Vegas. Except, of course, I’m being watched. And my nemesis, Mr. Secret Agent Man, has no sense of humor at all.

What he has is a mission for me—though I don’t recall signing up to risk my life. But sinister powers are rising, and I must infiltrate the enemy’s base to discover critical hidden intelligence. Dangerous obstacles and lethal adversaries block my path at every turn.

Sounds like a fun quest, right? But, no, this is now my life. Unless I screw it up…

Continue the fast, fun, urban fantasy adventure of the BUTTERFLY WITCH, where magic and science become one—and it’s a problem!

* Contains swearing, some action scenes with deadly results, some romantic interest, and hopefully leaves you wanting more! *

I grew up reading SFF, buying the biggest books I could with my chore money. While I loved the action, adventure, and exciting worlds, most of those stories were missing…kissing! Now I read and write paranormal romance and science fiction romance which I think mix the best of all worlds. I also write urban fantasy romance as Jessa Slade and sexy contemporary romance as Jenna Dales.

J&T b&wI spend most of my time at my computer thinking about stories, in my garden thinking about stories, or walking my dog thinking about stories. Hmm, I think there’s a theme… 🙂

Rune has been telling tall tales since the age of five. Ghost stories and other paranormal tales are her favorites, especially if they’re funny.

When she was a child, she had an invisible friend. Now that she’s gotten older, she collects weird characters and odd people, both in her books and in real life. She’s a veteran, a mom, and a grandma. She’s also trainable. As proof, the squirrels have trained her to refill the bird feeder on command, and a local stray cat trained her to feed him even though he rewards her with hissing and won’t let her pet him.
