A Trade Paperback for Of Relations and Ships Is Available!

The trade paperback for Of Relations and Ships is finally available! At the moment, you can only get it from Amazon but I have a Barnes & Noble edition coming soon (it’s here)!

I like how the cover turned out for it, although during printing there are always going to be variations in colors, since that’s just the nature of printing and ink!

But here’s the cover flat. :)

There’s also a little line after the end of the book that teases the next book in the New Canton Republic series. ;)

Tease for next book in the New Canton Republic series. Here ends Of Relations and Ships. The story of the New Canton Republic continues in the upcoming Of Ships and Treasures, a tale of magic, love, and alien abduction!

A Hint of Things to Come

It’s Carlton’s little bro, Blane, who’s in for an adventure this time! :D (Carlton’s book was Of Mates and Barters, and Blane made a small appearance there.)

It’s been a long time coming, but it’s almost here! :D Of Relations and Ships is the longest New Canton Book I’ve written. But I think it’s a really fun story.

And a little something special is going to be out later this week. I’ve been thinking about writing a short story for the Wolves’ Heat series for a long while, and somehow, I’ve finally done it!

Devon and Kem are celebrating the holidays! :D

Depending on whether or not there appears to be interest in these short stories, I might write a few more. I already have ideas … and titles, like Salvadore and Wolf Steal a Truck (a.k.a. Matthew and Ash Take a Ride) and Gerald and Tanis Make a Bet (a.k.a. Gerald Wins Even When He Loses). So, to be honest, I really hope there’s interest. :-)

Update! Devon and Kem Under the Mistletoe (a.k.a. Ian and Craig’s First Fight) is available now at Amazon and Google Play, and is coming soon to more ebook retailers.

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

New Release! Will’s Hope

Whew! It’s so nice to announce that Will’s Hope is available! It went live yesterday, and I’m really hoping I’m not the only one who loves this one. :)

Amazon | Apple | Barnes & Noble | Google Play | Kobo | Smashwords | Amazon.co.uk | Amazon.ca | Amazon.com.au … and more.

Will's Hope bookcover

Here’s the description!

Will knows who he is, even if he doesn’t remember how or why he ended up on the run with one of the aliens everybody calls “wolves.”

He knows the wolves were welcomed to Earth with few reservations and shared technology and knowledge freely—until their first heat season revealed the dark truth about their attraction to human scent, triggering uncontrolled sexual aggression and violence, and changing the world as he knew it forever. He knows the wolves rule the American Protectorate, a place where they roam freely and claim humans for mates.

Will knows he has a past—and he knows something’s wrong, that his life isn’t what it should be—but he has no way to know that his past is about to come for him, and it’s going to be a fight to the death for his soul…

Book 9 in the Wolves’ Heat series.

These books really are best read as a series, in order, but they are stand alone stories if you don’t mind figuring things out from context. :D

For good or ill, this is my longest book ever! Whew. I don’t even know what happened, but that’s just what the story took. :D I loved writing this book, and I love the result. I hope you like it. I can’t say I’ll be writing anything this long again, but I can’t say I won’t either, because I write what needs to be written and that’s just the way it happens for me. :D

Lots of explicit sex and language in this book, and men that give as good as they get! :D

If you pick up a copy of this book, thank you so much! And thank you for taking the time to read my stories! I love sharing them with you.

Of Love and Zembores has a paperback edition now!

Of Love and Zembores has a trade paperback available now!

You can find the paperback at Amazon already, and it’ll be in other bookstores in the future (hopefully it won’t take too long).

If you pick up a copy, I hope you like it and thanks! Your support is much appreciated. :-) It means a lot!

ISBN-13: 978-1-79066-830-4

It’s a trade paperback, 5 x 8 inches, and it’s over 300 pages in a nice and readable typeface. Of Love and Zembores is the longest New Canton Republic book I’ve written so far.

This means all my books are caught up in paperback now, with the exception of some of the shortest stuff I’ve written, like The Queen’s Lover (a novelette companion to The King’s Guard and The King’s Gambit), and my short stories and novelettes of The R’H’ani Chronicles (although you can get some of them in paperback in the collection edition of volumes 1–6). And if you’re wondering, a novelette is just a short novella really. Longer than a true short story but shorter than a true novella. Kind of in that middle space where more happens than could happen in a short story but condensed so it doesn’t become a full-blown novel of a book. :-)
