Talented author, Rebecca Brochu, stops by to share an excerpt from her bestselling m/m romance, The Alpha’s Ardor.

About the Author

I am proud to say that I live in a small town in North Carolina, surrounded by fields and fresh air. Naturally I spend most of my days crouched in front of a keyboard or curled up with a book.

As an avid video game and anime enthusiast, it is an understatement to say that I have a vivid imagination. With a collection of games, dvd’s, and books that number too many t...

A Very Personal Hop Against Homophobia #HAHAT

Welcome to our Hop Against Homophobia Blog Hop. As you know, May 17th is International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia. It’s always a great thing when attention is paid to such a worthy and relevant cause.

I always use this time to shine light on the Caribbean/West Indian aspect of Gay rights and Homophobia. I am West Indian. I am from that world where on most islands it’s against the law to engage in homosexual activity. Here in the States and in much more advanced countries, Gay Right...

Cover Reveal: Till Mercy

Here now, is the cover for Till Mercy, book three in my Paranormal Security Councilseriesat Total E Bound. Cover artist is the incomparable Emmy Ellis.

A suicide mission to avenge the death of his family brings an outspoken professor face to face with his worst enemy, and a new chance at life and love.

He’d topped the Paranormal Security Council’s hit list at one time, but Professor Nathan Valte has been given a second chance. Instead of moving on, Nathan is pedalling backward. Consumed with gu...

Conduct Unbecoming

The twitterverse is in an uproar. Hell, I’m freaking pissed. I’m usually the hang back, watch while everyone else shares their opinions and read the blow back type. Not this round. This time I wish to speak, to have my say, since author Kendall Grey had hers.

You see, Ms. Grey says she’s succumbed to the pressures of the masses, lowered and shamed herself into writing erotica or “trash” as she calls it, after the UF she spent years writing and honing her artsy skills on didn’t sell. She spent...

We Have a Release Date! (S/K)

It’s 10:49 p.m. Way past my bedtime and one last time before I drift off to sleep, I check the Ellora’s Cave website. I’ve been stalking the Coming Soon page to get the release date for A Sinner Born.

AND THERE IT IS!

Ha.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Happy Mother’s Day to all my readers who are mothers! Here’s to hoping you’ve gotten the chance to do what you really want, which is to sleep in, stay in bed all day with a book or the ereader. No one bothering you, asking questions they already know the answers to, asking you to referee the fight that shouldn’t be happening in the first place, inquiring as to the whereabouts of things they really should know and demanding you feed them even though the fridge is well stocked and no one’s hand...

Updates

I’ve been busy. So busy. Also sick. Like a freaking dog. I don’t do sick well. I’m a bitch. Well…I’m always a bitch but even more so when I’m sick. A goddamn terror really. Damn sure pushed Mr. A to his limit.

We’ll know the release date of A Sinner Born next week. For sure. Keep calm. I’ll put it on Goodreads then, so you can add it to your shelves and rec it to your friends.

I have to start the free read for JP and Shane, but that’s going to be a while yet. They’ll have to take a back seat to...

The last Part

It’s a bitter-sweet thing, saying goodbye to the boys. Yes, they show up in all the remaining Sinners books, but I’m as yet undecided on if we’ll seeanythingfrom their POV. This may well be the last time we get inside Gabe or Angel’s head. It hit me tonight as I wrote their last episode that there’s one more book, one more story to tell in the Sinners world. One more then we’ll be done.

I have to say I’m not ready for it to be over. I’m not ready. No character has settled into my pores the way...

Part VIII

I think I’m seriously spoiling you kids. Next installment (in a day or so) will be the last. Hopefully. Let’s hope the boys keep on the track they’re on now.

Two and a half hours in the emergency room getting his hand x-rayed and bandaged didn’t help Rafe much. In fact, all he had was time. Time by himself to think, to go over every words Gabe said to him.

I found myself wishing I hadn’t done it, hadn’t fallen in love with a man. With you.

He’d thought his heart couldn’t break any more when G...
