On the bright side, Liv and I are hard at work on Hours of the Night Book 2 – so January hasn’t been a complete bust so far.

You Can Leave Your Boots On by Irene Preston


In the heart of Texas…


Liberal Austinite Travis Boyd recycles, shops local, and is partner in a successful green-building company. After his last disastrous relationship, he’ll never again date a man who’s not out. A little discretion while working for ultra-conservative clients in west Texas is hardly the same as being in the closet. Anyway, the only person he’s interested in being indiscreet with is the client’s macho son. Not happening, Trav.


Bo Vargas is a cowboy-boot-wearing, meat-eating, truck-driving ode to masculinity. He’s not gay. The men he picks up on business trips are just anonymous diversions. Travis isn’t anonymous. And there’s something about him that makes Bo want to expand his relationship options. Maybe.


When a popular dating app sends Bo and Travis on the same blind date, the night explodes in passion. One night isn’t a problem. But what will each man be willing to risk the morning after?

All Romance Ebooks Closure

Send to Kindle

Dear readers –


I’m saddened to learn of the closure of All Romance Ebooks. I had a good number of readers over there and, until their abrupt announcement this past week, had an excellent relationship with this company.


If you purchased one of my books on All Romance and were unable to download due to the closure, please send me your proof of purchase and which format (mobi/kindle, epub, pdf) that you prefer and I will get you a copy. This applies to both my solo books and and the Hours of the Night books I co-authored with Liv Rancourt. We want to make sure our readers are inconvenienced as little as possible.


For Irene Preston titles – email irenepreston (at) gmail (dot) com


For Vespers and Bonfire – email prescourtbooks (at) gmail (dot) com

Bonfire is 99 cents

Send to KindleBonfire is out!

*blows noisemaker*


If you enjoyed meeting Thaddeus and Sara in Vespers, you’ll love their first Christmas together.


Bonfire is a shorter story that takes place within the Hours of the Night timeline, but outside of the main story arc. It’s a chance for the guys to spend a some time together and mesh their lives without demons popping up everywhere… Oh, wait! Did I mention the strange lights that keep appearing in the swamp?


Well, I’m sure they’ll still have time to trim a tree and figure out how a lapsed Hindu and a devout Catholic should celebrate the holidays.


Liv and I have this one at $0.99 (67% off)  right now to kick off the holidays.


No matter what traditions you celebrate, we wish you peace and joy during this season and throughout the coming year.


[image error]


Silent night, holy hell.


Thaddeus and Sarasija are spending the holidays on the bayou, and while the vampire’s idea of Christmas cheer doesn’t quite match his assistant’s, they’re working on a compromise. Before they can get the tree trimmed, they’re interrupted by the appearance of the feu follet. The ghostly lights appear in the swamp at random and lead even the locals astray.


When the townsfolk link the phenomenon to the return of their most reclusive neighbor, suspicion falls on Thaddeus. These lights aren’t bringing glad tidings, and if Thad and Sara can’t find their source, the feu follet might herald a holiday tragedy for the whole town.


Click HERE to read the first chapter of Bonfire.

Vespers is out today!

Send to Kindle

Liv Rancourt and I are so excited for you to meet Thaddeus Dupont and Sara Mishra!


Writing with Liv has been an incredible experience. This book was a little scary for me in some ways (well, vampire – lol). Not only is it my first paranormal, Vespers explores some concepts that might be hot-buttons for some people. But when Liv sent me her first scene and Thaddeus Dupont glided onto the page, I knew there was no turning back. Love at first scene, y’all.


If you’re wondering what it is all about, you can check out the first few chapters HERE.


If you’re ready to dive in, you can find Vespers at the retailers below:
