Elliot's War - Available Now

Hi everyone!

Elliot's War is available now from Total-e-bound. It's MM, BDSM. It was previously available as part of the Gaymes Anthology - so don't buy it if you've already got the anthology!

Here's the blurb:

The Welsh and the English. Celts and invaders. Captors and prisoners. Victors and slaves. Let the war games begin!

The woodland war is billed by the university as an important exploration of differing cultural traditions within the British Isles. As far as Elliot understands it, the game involves the local Welsh students and those who invade the university from across the border, waging a war in the woodlands that surround the university.

Elliot’s not quite sure how he ended up agreeing to take part in the war game. Nor is he entirely sure how he ended up running through the forest wearing a skimpy toga while being chased by a dozen Celtic warriors—all of them painted a very historically inaccurate shade of blue woad.

For better or worse, Elliot’s about to get an education that wasn’t advertised in the university prospectus.

Just click on the cover to read an excerpt on the TEB website :)

Pretty Pictures

Hi everyone,

I have a couple of new covers to share.

Handcuffs and Headlockswill be out on the 29th September. Click on the pic to read an excerpt.



Handcuffs and Troublewill be out on 24th November. (No excerpt yet)



And Elliot's War, currently available as part of the Gaymes anthology, will be available as a stand alone e-book from November 1st. You can click on the pic to read an excerpt of that too.



Carrying on the theme of pretty pictures...

First of all, I want to take the chance to thank everyone who's commented on the News letter post and entered the give away.

The main thing people mentioned they'd like added to it, was a short story section.

So, over the last week or so I’ve asked some friends to pick photos for me to use as inspiration points. Each month, I’ll be posting one of those photos and the story I wrote after seeing it.

Some of the stories will catch up with characters from books I’ve already written, others will give you a sneak preview into the lives of those whose books haven’t hit the shelf yet – others will stand entirely alone.

The October Newsletter pic was picked by Jase, who I think a lot of you will know from the Goodreads MM Romance group. He’s an amazing proof reader and the sweetest guy you’ll ever meet – and he also has a knack for finding some really great photos!

Check back on the first of October to see the image he chose and the story I came up with after seeing it :)

Have a great weekend everyone.

Bits and Pieces

Hi everyone,

I have a new book coming out soon - Gayday! Gayday! and the fantastic Chris from the Stumbling Over Chaos blog is giving away a copy. You can enter the give away here.

I'm also over on the Hitting the Hotspot blog profiling a couple of my e-books that have been converted into audio books. You can check out that post here.

Away from the internet, I'm half way through editing a Christmas story for TEB and half way through writing Cameron's Pride - the fourth and final book in my Thrown to the Lions series.

And, since I have very little else to share writing wise at the moment, you might rememebr that a little while ago I showed you a picture of a crochet blanket I was just starting. At that time, it looked a bit like this:



132 hexagons later, it now looks like this.



The next blanket is already 1/4 done. It's solid coloured granny squares with black borders, if you're wondering :)

Have a great weekend everyone!
