The Engineer release day

The Engineer , first book in the Magic & Steam series, is live! This book means so, so much to me and I hope you'll give this wild romantic and steampunk adventure a try. These characters are nearly fifteen years old, and have for so long, been told by agents and houses alike that there was no market for steampunk, and no audience for two gay outcasts finding acceptance and footing in their fantastical world. Gillian and Gunner have undergone transformations over the years as I fine-tuned their c...

April 2020 Reads

Wow. I'm not sure where my life went for the last three months. As my lack of 2020 Reads posts would indicate, I've been a bit busy: republishing my complete backlist, prepping anthology novellas to be available for sale solo for the first time, writing my steampunk series, and now this pandemic throwing us all for a tailspin...

But I did read in April! Below are the links to my BookBub reviews, which are mirrored on Goodreads if you prefer that website.

The Mystery of the Moving Image - Coming to Audio!

The Mystery of the Moving Image (Snow & Winter: Book Three) is coming to audio this summer! The series has been picked up once again, with Wyatt Baker now narrating the adventures of Sebastian and Calvin. Wyatt also narrated Southernmost Murder , where if you've not read or heard the audio, you can enjoy a cameo of Sebastian Snow in Chapters 2 and 14.
