Summary: Evil that lurks will never stay hidden for long… Genie had witnessed much over the tenuous centuries he’d roamed the earth. Blood, feast, famine, plagues. None of which affected him, yet by the same token, it had. If that made any sense… Lovers had come and gone just as master’s had, but never had his heart been involved. Until now. Why fate chose this point in his life to grant another access to it would remain a mystery. The Maharajah’s public execution of his parents, done as a warning to the commoners not to take money from his hand, left Raj to fend for himself at a young age. The meager loaf of bread his parents stole to feed their starving family was nowhere near the value of the lives he took that day. After that, Raj was shunned by the town. Never had he been so alone… Over the years, Raj never went without. Food, clothing, everything he required was always there, as if magicked. Cupboards once bare now filled to the brim. How could this be? Will Genie and Raj’s forbidden relationship survive the Maharajah’s greed, or will they meet the same fate as Raj’s parents had for defying his tyrannical rule? ***A portion of this story was in the Twisted Pride 2024 Anthology***

Summary: A year ago, Quinn Boucher was in his third year of university. He had plans. A life. And then in one night, it was all ripped away by violent werewolves who changed Quinn and held him captive for a month. Now, a year later, Quinn is healing. He has safety in the Massachusetts home of the U.S. Anax, ruler of all werewolves in the country. And he has the love and support of the older man fate brought into his life, his mate Malachi. But as the anniversary of his change passes, Quinn has no respite from his memories. If only Malachi wasn't so far away. At 130 years old, Malachi Powers never wanted a mate. Never wanted to command another. And then destiny gave him Quinn. Now, after six months, he can no longer imagine his life without the young man who obeys his word. When the U.S. Anax requests that Malachi come to spend Christmas with Quinn, Malachi accepts the offer. And when the Anax offers to allow Quinn to travel back to Nova Scotia to spend time with Malachi, both are thrilled. Staying at Malachi's winterized island cottage, Quinn and Malachi feel out how it will be when they are finally able to fully combine their lives. But the isolation, Quinn's memories and concerns about the Anax, and the impending full moon take their toll on both men. When Quinn's trauma gets the best of him and he runs, Malachi questions whether he can truly be the partner his young mate needs. Perhaps they would be better off living apart. This book includes a large age gap between main characters (over 100 years; werewolves live a long time); mention of and flashbacks to sexual trauma in a main character's past; depictions of PTSD; one main character consensually commanding the other; and mention of the off-page self-unaliving of a minor character. The book is set in the Real Werewolves Don't Eat Meat universe but is not a direct part of that series.

Summary: “You know,” he said, as he got the glimmer of an idea, “it would teach my father a lesson if I married someone totally unsuitable and took them home.” Crown Prince Rupert of Simigile had been ordered to get married. Immediately. To the point where he wasn't allowed to return home to Simigile until he had secured a marriage contract. Stuck at Monce, definitely not mooning over King Consort Jaq, Rupert's eye was caught by a man in a particularly gaudy robe. He was short of stature, bedecked in jewels and reminded Rupert of a peacock. Better yet, he was a lowly prince from a family with numerous siblings. The perfect undesirable prince. Ordering a contract be drawn up immediately, Rupert headed for home. He had events to attend, and he had no intention of taking his new husband with him. “All right then, my lovely people. What have we got? Can we work this marriage business to our advantage, or do I need to pull in a favor at the World Council and get this debacle stopped for reasons of national security or something similar?” Prince Winter of Martingale had been "working" when he was spotted by Crown Prince Rupert at the Monce coronation. Living a life few knew about, and intensely committed to keep his secrets, Rupert's offer for his hand in marriage was a wrinkle in his plans. Determined to make the best of a frankly annoying situation, Winter and his staff headed for Simigile immediately. Once there Winter found out why the king had been so insistent that his only son find a spouse. The mystery was why Rupert hadn't simply married someone he already knew. It wasn't like the man didn't have any friends... or did he? People are gossiping that I’m an unfit husband, and I think damn Tristan is trying to blackmail me by wanting to set up house with me. What are you going to do about it? Rupert's wish to hang onto his past life was never going to happen. When he and Winter are forced, through unusual circumstances, to actually get to know each other, Rupert was surprised by how complex his new husband was. But a happy ever after is never guaranteed, especially with sword-wielding friends and grumpy gryphons determined to keep them apart. The Most Unsuitable Prince can be read as a standalone. It features a crown prince who's default setting is grumpy, and a prince with a far sunnier personality despite his name. The story features friendly kings, treacherous friends, and well-kept secrets that have to come out eventually. Rupert and Winter's story has an HEA - eventually. It is a story intended for adults only.

Summary: He came to this human hotel to disappear. Instead, he found a barista who makes espresso taste like home—and glitches no one else can solve. Adri Linari, overlooked tech mage and younger sibling of Niralen’s charismatic Crown Prince, is more comfortable with schematics than small talk. Overwhelmed by royal obligations, a sensory-frying engagement party, and the ache of always being the odd one out, he runs—straight to the Renversé Hotel in Princedelphia, Oregon. All he wants is quiet, a place to draw, and maybe fix a few circuits. He doesn’t expect the barista whose espresso tastes like the calm he radiates. Single trans dad Sam Walker thrives on structured chaos—managing Café Magnifique, co-parenting five incredible kids, and serving up caffeine and kindness to a revolving door of patrons. Falling for the mysterious, purple-skinned stranger who only ever orders espresso and somehow brightens his mornings? He doesn’t have time for that. But something’s wrong in the hotel’s west wing, and now they’re tangled in logic-defying glitches that even mess with Sam’s precious machines—and an attraction that won’t stop buzzing. “Tech Prince Troubles” is a spicy, slow-burn male/male urban fantasy romance full of mysterious glitches, coffee-fueled flirting, found family, single dad vibes, and an opinionated espresso machine named Gandalf.
