New Story Available on Amazon! Mage in Love

I have an ongoing story published on Kindle Vella.

In Mage in Love, Jihu makes a bargain with crafty (but hot) Gaeru to escape death. One bad decision leads to another and, soon, Jihu has only himself to blame for the trouble that follows…

Episode 1: “You Lose” and Episode 2: “Is It Really?” are available now!

Available on Amazon Kindle Vella!

Eventually, I’ll put it all together and make a book out of it, but that will be much later. So if you’re interested, go read the first few chapters (episodes) for free on Kindle Vella. :D

I would love to see that somebody besides myself is interested in Jihu and Gaeru’s story!

And don’t worry! I promise this isn’t interfering with me getting the next New Canton Republic and Wolves’ Heat books up. :D I have a lot of stories in the works and this is just another way to get one of them out, sooner rather than later. ;D

Never Enough (R’H’ani Chronicles #15) Is Available Now!

The next R’H’ani Chronicles story, Never Enough, is finally out! It’s a short novella that I’ve had finished for a while, but I wasn’t able to publish it until now. :)

Still, when I went back to look through it before getting it ready, I was really pleased with it. I think it’s a fun story and I hope you like it! :D

In this follow-up to Anything At All, Kalar plots against his new husband for a prize more valuable than all the trade between R’H’ani and the Great Isle …

But innocent Yestrille may be doing some plotting of his own …

Never Enough is another exciting tale in the R’H’ani Chronicles, where men love men and the rules of romance are complicated by contracts that bind!

Never Enough directly follows Anything At All and indirectly follows His Only Weakness. If you’ve kept up with the series, you know Yestrille is also in His to Keep and One to Tame.

Ahh, the threads are getting tangled now. :)

This is a long series, but the R’H’ani Chronicles stories stand very well on their own if you prefer to read them that way. However, I always recommend you read them in the order of publication for the most fun! :D

Here are links for Never Enough where it’s already available, but of course, the most up to date list of links will be on the book’s main page.

Next up, getting Of Relations and Ships off my computer and ready to publish. I hope I’m not the only person excited by this news! It’s been a long time coming and I’m really glad to finally be able to get back to my writing and publishing. :)

Just a little update

Alright. I’ve had to readjust everything about my plans for this year but I’m still here. Really!

This upcoming week, I’ll be working on getting the things I was working on before everything came to a standstill ready to go. I’m picking up where I left off and will be publishing stuff soon and working on stuff that I had planned to work on during the first half of the year.

In other words, writing has resumed and all is well. I just need some time to get stuff done.

I really wish I could snap my fingers and it’d all be done for me but that’s not how my life works, unfortunately. :-)

I will update the site ASAP when Of Relations and Ships and Never Enough are available. Liam’s Trust is a bit delayed but coming as soon as I can finish it. Give me a few weeks and I’ll post another update about that one.

Take care of yourself, wherever you are! :-)

Whew! The next New Canton book is just about ready

I’m working hard to get the next New Canton book ready for release (Of Relations and Ships). This week was the plan, and I think I might still make it by the end of the week or the weekend. I’ll let you know details as soon as I have things ready to go. I’m excited to finally get this one done and out. It took much longer to write than I expected (seriously, I started this one more than a year ago)! :-)

A Fair Trade Is Available Now!

A Fair Trade is the next new R’H’ani Chronicles story and it is available now! It’s the novella follow up to No Better Offer and a chance to find out more about Neese, whom I happen to adore. :-) (I adore them all, sorry! I’ll never be objective where these guys are concerned.)

A Fair Trade cover image

A Fair Trade directly follows No Better Offer and indirectly follows Anything At All.

In the follow up to No Better Offer, Neese is trying to get comfortable in his new job inside the harem of Spencyr Ramynad. But he’s never worked in a man’s harem before, for good reason, and it has only taken him one day to realize just how much trouble he’s in.

Neese’s co-worker Stenyl infuriates him even as Stenyl’s kisses are far too tempting to ignore, and his new employer Spencyr is a little too hard to figure out—but he seems more than willing to share his new consort with Neese…

Neese just wants everybody to follow the rules—because the rules might be the only thing that can save Neese from himself…

A Fair Trade is another exciting tale in the R’H’ani Chronicles, where men love men and the rules of romance are complicated by contracts that bind!

Here are links where it’s already available, but of course, the most up to date list of links will be on the book’s main page.

No matter how you choose to read, most of the R’H’ani Chronicles stories stand very well on their own. However, I always recommend you read them in the order of publication for the most fun! That’s even more apparent in this group of five stories that start with No Better Offer. Lots of fun stuff is finally revealed in these stories and it’ll mean so much more if you’ve read them all! :-)

Anything At All Is Available Now!

The first of the two new R’H’ani Chronicles stories is available now!

Anything At All cover image

Anything At All is a novelette length story for Yestrille. If you’ve kept up with the series, you know Yestrille is also in His to Keep and One to Tame. I thought he deserved his own story and this is what came of that! :-)

Here are links, but of course, the most up to date list of links will be on the book’s main page.

In this 13th volume of the R’H’ani Chronicles, Odessa Lynne brings you a novelette length story of male/male romance set in the land of Ani’Hain, where nothing is as simple as it seems…

Yestrille plans to marry for love, or not at all. But sometimes even the most simple plans fall apart when faced with the reality of life in Ani’Hain…

Anything At All is another exciting tale in the R’H’ani Chronicles, where romance and love follow a different set of rules, and true love always wins in the end!

Although the series is best read in order, this story can be read as a stand-alone story.

Since this is a R’H’ani Chronicles story, I don’t think I have to warn for sex. :D

And finally, this is science fiction that feels a whole lot like a fantasy read.

Two New R’H’ani Chronicles Stories Are Coming This Week

Two new R’H’ani Chronicles stories are coming later this week. They’re ready to go, and I just have to find the time to get them up and live.

One is a novelette like most of the rest and the other is a novella, a little bit longer than No Better Offer. If you want to know more about Neese, well that one is certainly going to give you that! The other is a story for Yestrille (from His to Keep and One to Tame), and oh, my, I totally love Yestrille even more than I loved him before, and I really loved Yestrille to begin with so there! He got a story and it’s one I happen to love so, so much!

After I get these up, it’s back to getting the novels I’ve been working on all summer ready.

I want to get Of Relations and Ships out in November, if at all possible, but I do still have some work to do on it.

Taken with Tony is getting really close and I totally think it’ll be a December book for me.

Liam’s Trust is still very much in progress, while I’ve got something new and possibly stand alone in the works too. :D That one’s untitled, so I’ve just been calling it Adam after one of the leads. :-) It’s a strange one, but as usual, it’s got romance and love and sex and a bit of a plot too. Okay, a massive plot, what the hell. It’s not like that’s going to surprise anyone. :D

I’d love to guarantee all of these will be out when I’d like them to be out, but it’s just not possible. My muse is fickle, fickle, fickle, and I have to do what I have to do to keep the stories flowing.

Anyway, back to work for me! I’m trying to get those R’H’ani stories out as soon as I can now that they’re ready. I’ll update with an announcement as soon as I do!

No Better Offer Is Now Available in Paperback!

The trade paperback edition of No Better Offer is now available! You can get it at Amazon, or find more links on the book page for No Better Offer. Check them out if you need a link to a different retailer.

No Better Offer (The R’H’ani Chronicles, Vol. 12)

Stenyl is miserable in his new job in the harem of a wealthy R’H’ani bureaucrat, but it was the best he could get after being fired from his last for breaking the rules. When he gets a better offer, he knows he should accept. Only the better offer might not be the one he wants…

Spencyr is the reason Stenyl was fired without cause and forced to take a job he hates—so why does his heart still beat faster every time the gray man gets near?

Then there’s Neese, Stenyl’s handsome co-worker who claims not only not to be gay but to have never performed with another man, and who has made Stenyl an outcast in the harem. Neese is a liar, and Stenyl means to prove it.

If only Spencyr were a little more forthcoming about his own desires, and Neese wasn’t so infuriating—and so pretty…

The book is a 5 x 8 inch paperback and 130 pages.

The other volumes will be coming to paperback soon, even though I freely admit they’re a little thin in paperback, but they’re really nice to hold and flip through! :D The first in the series has actually been in paperback for a long time, but wait to pick it up if you want the collection! The new edition will have the most recent cover and match the rest of the books when they’re done. :)

If you like thicker paperbacks, you can pick up the first six stories in the series in the paperback edition of The R’H’ani Chronicles Collection: Volumes 1–6. It is definitely not thin at 279 pages. :D

Will’s Hope Is Now Available in Paperback!

The trade paperback edition of Will’s Hope is now available at Amazon! (More links are available on the Will’s Hope book page. Check them out if you need a link to a different retailer.)

The book is a 5 x 8 inch trade paperback and 496 pages. It’s a monster. ;-)

At this moment in time, I’m really wishing I hadn’t imagined all my books would be about the same length as Ian’s Choice and set them up to publish as 5 x 8 paperbacks. If the books keep going long, I might have to republish in a larger book format, like a 5.5 x 8.5 or a 9 x 6.

If you’re a paperback purchaser, would it disappoint you to have the newer books in a different size?

Anyway, let me know in the comments if you care one way or the other. It’ll make it a little easier for me to decide what I’m going to do with longer books in the future. :D
