Teddy’s Temptation Chapter 1 Sneak Peek

Teddy’s Temptation is finally just about ready to head off to the editor! This book turned into my white whale, and it wasn’t until I realized how I’d done Shiloh wrong that I was able to continue on. Here’s a sneak peek of the first chapter. Please remember, this hasn’t yet gone to the editor, so there are more than likely some typos lurking about.

The predawn darkness that enveloped our quaint little town could have been viewed as a form of punishment by some, but not me. I embraced it wh...

Creating Backmatter for Paperbacks

If you’ve been writing for any length of time, you’ve likely heard about the importance of backmatter for keeping readers in your worlds.

But how do you do that for readers who buy your paperbacks? This is a question I’m asked often because it’s much harder to get read-through on paperbacks than it is ebooks.

Clicking on a link doesn’t work for them because you can’t click on paper to visit a website.

Links can be clunky, and it means readers have to take the book to their computer o...

Trust in Me is Live!

When Rules to Live By came out earlier this year, I started getting messages asking when Sam would get his story. At the time, I wasn’t sure if he would, but I’m so glad y’all fell in love with him!

I have to tell you… as I learned more about Sam, I got scared.

He’s a character unlike any other I’ve written to this point. He’s a little through-and-through, but there’s more…

Sam’s trans.

Why is that scary? Because he’s not the “typical” trans guy, or at least what a lot of people ...

Update about Looks Can Be Deceiving

We all know the ‘zon has been having its fair share of issues recently. Unfortunately, I woke up yesterday morning to find the Looks Can Be Deceiving pre-order cancelled despite having confirmed with them it was approved and ready for sale.

While they were quick to approve the book when I relisted it, there’s no way to let those who had preordered know it’s live and they’ll have to click again.

If this is you, could you give Corey and William one more click?

Escape Into Romance

I think its fair to say 2020 is kicking all of us in the proverbial backside right now. A lot of us are stuck at home, many with kids who are so bored theyre certain it will be their cause of death, and by the end of the day, we need a way to escape it all. A group of us have chosen to put our books on sale to help you maximize your TBR pile without draining the wallet.

Show Me, Daddy is Live!

One Daddy. One Sadist. One boy who wants them both.

Jordan’s single. Again. What is wrong with him that he can’t keep a boyfriend?

He knows he shouldn’t be lusting after his boss… or his boss’s ex.

But those toppy vibes are killing him.


How did a boy who’s never been able to make a relationship work find himself with not one, but two men?

Does it seem like a lifetime since Use Me, Daddy came out? At the time, I honestly thought it would be no problem to finish Show Me, Daddy and publish it...

Where’s the Book??

It’s been over five months since the last Club 83 book was released. I never intended to have this long of a gap between releases. Not only is it bad for income when you’re hoping to go back to full time writing, but I know how annoying it is for readers to have to wait.

To all of you who are patiently waiting, thank you for being understanding and I’m sorry I haven’t been able to deliver yet.

The truth is, there’s been a whole heaping pile of life this year. Around the time I was writing Sho...
