Summary: Sometimes it’s harder to teach a young dog new tricks. That’s why werewolves embark on a Howling: a three-year rite of passage in which they’re sent to a group residence to wrestle with their wolfy instincts and assimilate into the Wider World. But Tanner Araya’s Howling is almost over, and he could be called back to his remote pack at any moment. His twenty-first birthday might be his last chance to act on his strongest instinct and finally kiss Chase Denney. Chase is RA at the Howling residence affectionately dubbed “the Doghouse,” and he takes his job seriously. So seriously that when he realized he was developing feelings for a resident, he forced himself to keep Tanner at a distance. But now that Tanner’s twenty-one, he’s not Chase’s charge any longer. They could be friends or—if Chase is lucky—something more. At least until they both return to their home packs for good, as tradition demands. It would take a miracle for them to get together—especially when the other Doghouse werewolves insist on “helping.” Warning: Many Frisbees are harmed in this story, forgiveness is not always easier than permission, and the five-second rule does not apply.

Summary: Artemas, known as the academic son of Poseidon, spent much of his time trying to work out how the Fates decided who was to be mated to whom. With the fall of his brothers, his father, and others in their close circle, he was worried he'd be next in line and the last thing he wanted or needed was a mate. But his uncle Zeus pulled him away from his studies with a special project for him - the retrieval of a book from an auction. A very special book by all accounts; the only known written record from the god Silvanus, one of the originals who hadn't been heard from for decades. Unable to resist a good book mystery, Artemas agrees to leave Poseidon's library long enough to bid on it. Silvanus had spent fifty years in deep despair over what was happening to the world. He'd been alone since the beginning of time, and when his depression reached breaking point, he pleads with the Fates to remove him from the tapestry of life. Telling him it was impossible, the Fates agreed to a promise instead. Silvanus would find his mate and the love his heart hoped for. Seeking to regain his book, after it'd been sold at an auction, Silvanus lands in a hotel room, meeting his fated promise face-to-face. Unfortunately, their first meeting was not the romantic event Silvanus had hoped for. It's soon clear Artemas's emotional baggage wasn't the only threat to their possible mating. A meddling god is on the loose, and when Odin and Loki are ruled out as possible suspects, only one other god comes to mind. Throw in the fact that Thor was due to give birth any minute, and Artemas and Silvanus have to work together in more ways than one. Will Silvanus ever get the time to heal the pain in Artemas's heart, or will the meddling god take everything they have and more? This is an MM true mates’ story, based on ancient gods. MPREG elements are not the main focus of this story, but a cursing Thor does give birth within these pages. Being familiar with the previous books in this series, and the Cloverleah Pack series will help give context to the storyline.

Summary: Stefan de Marco was looking for a position... again. Being a high scoring magical anchor was only useful in his world when he had someone to partner with.

Summary: NOTE: This is an expanded, revised version of a previously published work. The title and publisher have changed. Newly single Tyler Williams ought to be out partying every night, sampling the buffet of gay men Toronto has to offer.

Maxwell Friedland, a Depression-era artist, went missing shortly after posing for the portrait, presumably murdered by his lover. Finding out more about Maxwell and his disappearance plays right into Tyler’s love of both history and murder mysteries, but before long, Tyler finds himself obsessed with the man in the painting. It’s not long before he starts treating Max like a silent companion and sounding board. Max doesn’t judge or tell him he’s a failure at dating or cheat on him. Everything he learns about Max makes him yearn for a man long dead. Trapped in the painting by a curse, Max has spent decades longing for oblivion. Until Tyler. Tyler is everything Max would have wanted for himself, and it doesn’t take many of Tyler’s one-sided conversations for Max to start caring more than he should. For all that Tyler has friends and family, there’s a deep-seated loneliness in him, one that Max wants to erase. But the thickness of canvas trapping him might as well be miles of stone for all that Max could be with Tyler for real. Falling in love might be the worst curse of all.

Summary: “Someone has opened my box?” His voice was barely a whisper. “While I wasn’t there?” Hellhound Kolton was having a rough couple of months. After the person he thought was his mate died in hospital, Kolton didn't know which way was up, or what he was meant to do next. So finding out from Lord Hades that his collar box, the one mate indicator that hellhounds could rely on, had been opened in his absence, was a huge shock. While he was inclined to just zap his box back to its hiding place and worry about it later, Lord Hades was adamant it was up to him to track down the person who would be his mate forever. Is my mate a thief, or does he just have really expensive tastes? Doctor Simon Teeg had been going through hell for the past month, watching the man he knew was his mate care for another terminally ill patient. When the young man dies, and the mate disappears from the hospital, all Simon is left with is a box with a fancy - and very big - collar inside. It certainly wasn't a situation Simon could ever claim to have been in before. “Your mate should be the one you turn to when times get tough. They will want to help you. That’s what mates do..." The situation wasn't ideal from the start, but Kolton and Simon did their best to make things work. Kolton worried that his bonds with Simon would never be like the ones he saw among his pack mates because Simon didn't need protecting or saving from anyone - and yet protecting was the core of who he was. Meanwhile Simon was hiding a huge secret that had serious ramifications about the core of who he was as well. Would they ever be on the same page? And what do eggs have to do with anything? This mpreg MM Paranormal Fated Mates story can be read as standalone. It features a hellhound flying, cameo appearances from Lord Hades and Consort Ali (from The Gods Made Me Do It series), and enough wine bottles to sink a gargoyle. As always this story is intended for adults. Please store your ebooks responsibly.
