#LHIFTB The Call of the Night
This paranormal mini-antho from e-Xcite just came out today, so I figured I'd give it a plug. 'The Call of Night' is just the kind of collection I like to see, containing stories of lesbian, gay, and straight characters.
A collection of five erotic stories with mixed themes including paranormal and vampire.
The Call of the Night by Tabitha Rayne
The Call of The Night is a lesbian vampire romp in the woods. Leah finds herself on an evening walk on the outskirts of town being confronted by a mysterious cloaked woman who commands her to follow her into the forest...
House of Seven Inches by Michael Bracken
Located just south of the middle of nowhere, the two-storey house has stood empty ever since the previous owner disappeared several years earlier. The new owner – a gay, would-be writer who left a bad relationship in the city – moves in and begins an extensive renovation project. He soon learns to appreciate the solitude ... until he suspects he isn't alone.
Incubus At Your Service by Maggie Morton
When Nell gets up one morning, she's shocked to see the almost completely naked (but completely gorgeous) stranger in her kitchen, doing her dishes. When he turns around, though, he's identical to the man who was in her dreams last night, doing very naughty things to her. And if that wasn't weird enough, he tells her he's an early birthday present, from I & S Cleaning Services. His sudden appearance in her kitchen isn't the only surprise, though – it turns out that I & S stands for Incubus and Succubus, and that means she's just about to experience more pleasure than she ever has before.
Skyggen by Giselle Renarde
There's nothing like a holiday to forget one's urban anxieties. Little does Mirjam know she lost something essential during her stay at a rustic vacation villa – she lost her shadow! When she returns home without her darker self, Mirjam can no longer cope with everyday pressures. Before long, she quits her job and takes ill. Life becomes very shabby until one day a flamboyant young woman crashes through her door. It's Skyggen, her lost shadow, now engaged to marry a very wealthy man. In Skyggen's presence, Mirjam's capacity for jealousy and duplicity resurface. Perhaps Mirjam can even win back all that is rightfully hers ...
Lord Nano's Nemesis by Slave Nano
A mysterious highwaywoman emerges out of the evening mist to inflict her special brand of retribution on Lord Nano for his debauched behaviour in the brothels of 18th century Leeds. A flesh and blood female avenger or a ghostly phantom? Whoever she is, by the end of the evening, he will be stripped, cruelly tormented and wickedly humiliated. Has Lord Nano finally met his Nemesis?

#LHIFTB Officer Needs Help
Another book from the Bi-Line at loveyoudivine! See that tagline? "It's not cool to be a gay or bi cop in 1977"--intriguing, right?
Title: Officer Needs Help
Author: D. Sullivan
Blurb: Sean Patton is a pacifist who doesn't like guns but knows that statistically few law enforcement officers ever shoot anyone, so he plays the odds and loses. When a wife beater shoots him on a domestic-violence call, Sean is forced to shoot back. While his bulletproof vest saved Sean, it couldn't shield him from the posttraumatic stress. His hidden bisexuality raises the stakes to risk his career and mental stability. As far as women go, he's committed to being loyal to his loving and supportive girlfriend, Debbie. But can he swear off men? He's knows the drive is inborn. How can he tell Debbie about his other side and still keep her? You'll feel the heat when Sean makes love to his gay friend from college and later with his lawyer girlfriend in the shower. A tryst with his male supervisor furthers the adventures.

#LHIFTB Six Sentence Sunday: Ondine
For the first Six Sentence Sunday taking place during my "Let's Hear it for the Bis" celebration of bi and pansexual fiction, I've chosen to showcase six sentences from my novella Ondine. The selection seemed natural, since Ondine is one of my most pansexual books. There are characters who identify as straight, lesbian, bi, and beyond. There's everything from a pansexual hippie orgy to a sweet, shy heteromance. For such a short book (it's under 40,000 words, I believe) I sure managed to cram a lot of activity into it. LOL. I don't think I could manage that again if I tried. I'm becoming garrulous in my old age. (HA!)Anyhoo, here's my 6--an MFF menage invitation, most delightfully accepted:
On one occasion, Drinkwater arrived home from the office to find his wife spread-eagle on the breakfast table with the dark-haired girl's head between her legs. Ondine turned to him, her chin glistening with Imelda's juice. A familiar sensation ran through his groin as the ballerina said, "Will you not join us, monsieur Drinkwater?"
The sight was the stuff of fantasies: his buxom blonde wife lying naked but for a red kimono on the table at which they drank their morning tea, having her pussy licked by a gorgeous femme. Drinkwater's cock surged inside his trousers. For weeks he'd hoped for precisely this sort of invitation.
Ondine is available as an ebook, paperback, and audiobook. Giselle RenardeCanada just got hotter!

#LHIFTB By the Book
And now, a bi book from my newest publisher, Dee Dawning:
Title: By the Book
Author: Dee Dawning
Blurb: [BookStrand Menage and More #4: Contemporary Romance, M/F, F/F/M] Danny Williams is pleasantly surprised when one Friday night, Sarah, his comely wife, proposes a game to engender fresh excitement into their flagging sex life.
Handing Danny a copy of the erotic Lascivious Liaisons by Madame X, she suggests they re-enact a sex scene from the book once a week. After acting out the first scene for a heated night of sex, skeptical Danny is convinced and looking forward to the next 'By the Book' night.
However, unknown to Danny, Sarah has a plan within a plan. After several 'By the Book' nights, things start to unravel and events swing beyond Danny's control, ultimately changing their lives...forever.

#LHIFTB Hot Cover for Callie and the Hipsters
Today I got the cover for my multicultural MMF cougar novella Callie and the Hipsters (coming to Secret Cravings Publishing this September) and I couldn't wait to share it with you:
When Callie's husband leaves her for a younger woman, she drives all the way out to the summerhouse only to find it's been taken over by hipsters--twenty-somethings who wear plaid and listen to indie rock and eat nothing but raw broccoli. They're friends of her son, Dante, all queer and quirky students at the nearby university. At first, Callie's irritated that her son has thrown a party in her haven of relaxation, but when she and a bottle of Kahlua stumble upon two young men gettin' it on in her bed her annoyance morphs into arousal. The drink and the day's multitude of disappointments encourage her to join Vish and Evan, pansexual and polyamorous young men who are more than happy to welcome a vibrant older woman into their bed. How will they feel about inviting Callie into their lives?

#LHIFTB Fallen Soldiers
I couldn't manage to copy the cover of this well-received bi book to post here, but you can view it by clicking the Amazon link below:
Canada just got hotter!
http://www.wix.com/gisellerenarde/ero...
Title: Fallen Soldiers
Author: Jacqueline Applebee
Blurb:
Love can bring you home, no matter where you are. For Sarah, love spans the barrier of death, to bring two fallen soldiers back to the present.
Ernest and Albert are ghosts, each freed from statues that held their essence by Sarah, who possesses an amazing ability, unknown to anyone including her.
Sarah's boyfriend Leo has rejected her, and now all she wants to do is to lose herself deep in the English countryside, but instead of solitude, she finds an erotic adventure, and so much more.
When one of her friends mysteriously disappears, Sarah has to learn how to fight for the people she cares about, and finds an inner power that makes her strong enough for any challenge. She is rewarded for her bravery by the love and support of her lovers, both living and undead.

#LHIFTB Ashamed of Blatant Homophobia? Me too.
While we're celebrating all things bisexual this month at Donuts & Desires, a Catholic school board very close to home has spread its anti-Queer wings and crapped all over its students...and at an anti-Homophobia event, no less!According to Xtra, in this story picked up by Yahoo News, the Dufferin-Peel Catholic School board prevented students from displaying rainbows at the aforementioned event. Why? Well, of course, rainbows represent the visual iconography of Pride. Apparently being Catholic and showing Pride is not permitted. This great group of kids even held a bake sale to raise money for LGBT Youthline (the very organization I donate royalties to during the 4th quarter every year!) and were told by school officials they were not permitted to give to that charity.
Why am I surprised by all this? Because this is Canada. I always tell myself, obviously foolishly, that we're above this infuriatingly hateful behaviour--especially from our publicly-funded institutions! Yes, Catholic school are still funded by public dollars, even though no other religious schools here receive those dollars.
My question to myself, when I read this news piece, was: what can we do? The first thing that came to mind was to fulfill the intention of those Catholic student bake salers, and donate to LGBT Youthline.
To find out more about Youthline, click here and visit there website.
Any other ideas?
Hugs,Giselle
