More Wolves’ Heat Short Stories?

I have two new Wolves’ Heat short stories coming. I’ll be publishing them in the After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories ongoing collection.

That’ll pause the collection in a good spot for anyone who has purchased chapters for it while I focus on the novels. I really want to get Liam’s Trust out in the first half of this year and Eli’s Promise in the second half. And it’ll give me the chance to put out the second collection. (Chapters for After the Heat are sold in bundles of 5 and this’ll put the collection at 10 stories even.) :D

But I have two more almost complete short stories of the same style, one of which clearly isn’t an After the Heat story, meaning I really don’t know what to do with it. It’s a bit of a prequel for Liam’s Trust.

It’s a fun short story, but you don’t know the characters in the story (yet).

Do I release it now, or not? It stands completely alone, and I want to release it now, because I think it’ll be fun seeing how it ties in to the novel once it’s out. But that’s the author speaking, not you the reader. And I’ll have to figure out if I want to release it by itself and how/where to do it!

So, if you’re enjoying the short stories, be sure to let me know. It keeps me motivated!

Mason and Five Sneak Around (a.k.a. Marcus and Hawk Kiss and Tell) Is Available!

Finally! Here’s that Wolves’ Heat story I’ve been promising. :)

Mason and Five Sneak Around (a.k.a. Marcus and Hawk Kiss and Tell): A Wolves’ Heat Story

Mason goes home. Five goes with him. Return to the early days of Mason’s life with his new mate, Five, in this Wolves’ Heat short novella, where no one is ready for this family meeting…

This short novella follows Mason’s Regret from the Wolves’ Heat series.

Available now at Smashwords!

Publishing soon on Amazon, Laterpress (where you can buy it from me), Barnes & Noble, Google Play, Kobo, and all the usual places.

For the most up to date links, go to the book’s main page.

I’m so glad to finally get it to you! If you pick up a copy and read it, I hope you love it as much as I do. Mason and Five really do have a place in my heart. After their book, I wouldn’t have thought I’d have so much left to write for them, but here you go: my longest story in Wolves’ Heat Stories to date. This one’s a short novella! ;D

New Wolves’ Heat Story on the Way!

I’m just days away from releasing Mason and Five Sneak Around (a.k.a. Marcus and Hawk Kiss and Tell). It’s volume 3 in the Wolves’ Heat Stories series tied to the Wolves’ Heat novels.

I’m so excited to be able to get it out finally, since I feel like I’ve been planning it forever. It’s a companion story to the main series, like Devon and Kem Under the Mistletoe and Cam and Rick Play Dirty, but it came in quite a bit longer. This one is a short novella. I love it! I hope you will, too.

“Folly”: After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories, #8 Is Available!

“Folly” is a new story in the After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories ongoing collection (#8) and I’m so happy to finally have it added to the collection!

In “Folly,” Will and Abel have a moment.

Read on Laterpress

I don’t know what happened to the time this summer, but one day it was May and the next it was November! :)

If you want to read “Folly” now instead of waiting until it’s in an ebook collection (like the first five stories are in Collection 1), you’ll need to pick up the chapter bundles at Laterpress, but once you do, you’ll unlock 5 chapters of the collection with each bundle you buy.

It’s a Love Nest: A New Canton Republic Story Is Available Now!

2 Replies

I’m so glad to finally be able to announce this short novella! It’s a Love Nest revisits Gregory and Thrace from Of Magic and Mating, and the entire New Canton Republic series, really, since they’re always popping up in the new books. :D

How do you change a world? One nest at a time!

Odessa Lynne returns to the New Canton Republic in It’s a Love Nest with a tale of love and devotion—and all the trouble a family of monsters and magic-wielders can create.

Gregory and Thrace are in love, but Gregory sure isn’t in love with the idea of carrying a nest for his monstrous alien mate!

It’s a love that will change a world—if he’ll just say yes…

Coming this week! It’s a Love Nest

Leave a reply

It’s official! Tuesday is the release date for It’s a Love Nest, a New Canton Republic short novella! It was supposed to be a short story, but it ended up as a seven chapter short novella (plus epilogue!), because of course that’s how it turned out when I revisited Gregory and Thrace. I love them so much that I couldn’t help myself. :D

Anyway, I’ll get the links up when they come in, and post a release notice as soon as it’s available.

After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories Collection 1 is available now!

Leave a reply

I’ve released the first collection of FIVE After the Heat stories as an ebook!

Available now!

Other: Amazon.co.uk | Amazon.ca | Amazon.com.au | Amazon.de

Return to the world of the Wolves’ Heat series from Odessa Lynne in this fun collection of short stories!

In this first collection of five After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories, revisit Ian (from Ian’s Choice), Gerald (from Gerald’s Lot), and Brendan (from Brendan’s Fate), and get to know Marcus (Mason’s twin from Mason’s Regret).

After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories Collection 1 bundles the first five stories of the ongoing short story collection After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories into a single book.

The After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories Collection 1 includes “Teeth,” “Growl,” “Claw,” “Prick,” and “Itch.” I’ve added a short preface and a note about the timeline for each story.

If you’ve kept up with the ongoing collection, these are the same stories. If you haven’t, maybe because you don’t like reading online, this is your chance to get them as an ebook and catch up! :D

If you do pick up a copy of After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories Collection 1, thank you so much!

The Ongoing Collection Is Still Ongoing

The ongoing collection is continuing (and it’s up to story #7: “Favor”), so if you do want to read the stories online as they’re written, you can still do that, too!

This Week, Next Week

Ha! I had things I planned to publish this week, but here’s my quick note to say that they’ve all had to be put off until next week. A thing I really thought wouldn’t eat up my life this last week is happening and it’s just impossible for me to get everything done that I need to get done right now.

So, stories (It’s a Love Nest, “Folly,” the first After the Heat collection, and a surprise Wolves’ Heat story for Mason and Five that’ll be published individually) are still coming, as are the Mage in Love episodes, but most of it will have to wait until next week! I do have the Mage in Love episodes ready to go, but I just don’t have the time to proofread like I should and that means I also have to wait before I hit publish on those too. Maybe I’ll get some time tomorrow for that? We’ll see.

Coming Soon! A New Canton Republic Short Story

I’m so excited to finally have a (one of the) New Canton Republic short stories just about ready to go. :D

Here’s the thing. I originally set out to write a certain short story, but it didn’t cooperate. It became a longer short story, and I kept having to hold it back because I wanted a short story, dammit. But then I realized I was deluding myself. It wasn’t going to be a short story.

It’ll probably end up a novella, but I’m still unsure about that. :D I had to set it aside because I really wanted to write a New Canton Republic short story!

So I started another short story in the series and that’s the one I’m talking about now. :D

Get ready to revisit Gregory and Thrace from Of Magic and Mating in It’s a Love Nest! I’m just so excited for this one, and I hope you will be, too! :D

New Short Story! “Favor” In After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories

I just published a new (surprise) short story in After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories. I say surprise, because I didn’t know I was going to write this one, and it definitely surprised me when I did. :)

“Favor” revisits Salvadore, from Salvadore’s Luck, in the early days of his life with the Wolves.

Anyway, you can find it in the collection in the usual places.

Read on Laterpress | Read on Kindle Vella

Or go to the main page for the collection and see what’s in it, and where and how to get access to it: the After the Heat: Wolves’ Heat Stories main page.

If you read the new story, I hope you like it! And if you want more, let me know. I love knowing there’s someone besides me who cares about these stories. :)
