Alpha's Claim Manlove Anthology featuring Bad Moon Rising by Pelaam

 Welcome back my lovelies!!
We’re moving right along with yet another author from the Alpha’s Claim Manlove Anthology from Evernight Publishing. Grab a comfy spot, something warm to drink, and snuggle up with this little offering, Bad Moon Rising from Pelaam!!

Strength. Power. Domination.      The shifters in our Alpha's Claim: Manlove Edition anthology have one thing in common—they won't take “no” for an answer. Whether they lead packs of their own, or whether they walk a solitary path, these alphas won't let anyone stop them from claiming their men.      Lose yourself in these ten sinfully delicious love stories. After all, who could deny an Alpha’s claim?
     The Alpha gets what he wants when he wants it. His Beast will stop at nothing to claim his mate.      When Marcus rescues Kody, he’s sure he’s found his mate. But Kody isn’t another bear, he’s a lynx, and he’s reluctant to trust anyone. Especially an Alpha like Marcus.
Excerpt:       Sounds reached his ears: low growls, hisses, and the odd, drawn-out yowl. As he closed the distance, the sounds grew louder. He burst through thick foliage and into a clearing. The sounds were made by a trio of Canada lynxes. Shifters, he sensed it. A fourth one was pressed so far into a small hole in a tree’s trunk that only its head and front paws were visible. As the other three took turns approaching, it lashed out with its paw.       Marcus was certain the trio of cats were purposely baiting it. While they seemed fairly fresh as they moved in one after the other, the lynx in the tree looked like it was tiring. Then he heard the soft mewls of distress it was making, and a red mist descended before his eyes.       He rose up on his hind legs and bellowed loudly. The three lynxes looked at him, and then scattered as he charged towards them. He briefly considered giving chase, but the scent he’d followed remained close by. He turned and looked at the remaining lynx still huddled in the bole of the tree. He shifted, resuming his human form, but the lynx didn’t move.       “My name is Marcus. I won’t hurt you. I promise.”       He sat down, hoping to make himself appear less threatening. For a moment or two, the lynx remained hunched, and then slowly crawled forward and out of the tree. Marcus sat immobile, as the lynx shifted. Then the breath caught in his throat.       A slender, pale skinned man stood before him. Thick honey-blond hair, badly matted and carelessly parted to the left, reached slim shoulders. Despite being both dirty and disheveled, there was no missing the beauty that lay beneath.       The young man looked around nervously. "They'll be back. They'll come after me because their fear of the Alpha's fury will be greater than their fear of you."

Alpha's Claim Manlove Anthology featuring Bite Harder by Avril Ashton

I hope you’ve been enjoying the debut of Evernight’s Alpha’s Claim Manlove Anthology!!If you’re just tuning in, you’ve chosen a great day to check it out because Avril Aston is my guest today. Now to be fair, I love all of the Evernight authors involved in the anthos this month, but I must warn you, I’m a little biased when it comes to Ms. A.Avril’s not only a phenomenal writer, she’s my sister from another mister, my #1 go to lady when I’m stumped, my critique partner, and my very own personal ‘kick my ass into gear’ motivator when I think I’m at the end of my rope. Her contribution to the antho, Bite Harder, is about as yummy as it gets, so kick back, grab a snack, and let’s get this party started!!!

Saddled with an uncle who’s always in trouble, wolf shifter Rory Huntley has to look out for both himself and his female cousin. Which is why he offers up himself as the prize when Alpha Kellan Moyer comes to collect on his uncle’s debt. Moyer wants his cousin, but Rory isn’t about to let that happen. Still, he’s shocked when Kellan accepts his offer.As Alpha of his pack, Kellan Moyer needs to start thinking about a family. It’s the last thing he wants since he’s into men. He spots Rory in town and knows the young wolf is his mate. When Rory’s uncle steals from him, Kellan demands Rory and his cousin as payment. He sees it as a way to finally mark and claim his mate, but Rory makes another demand, offering himself if his cousin goes free. It’s a deal Kellan is all too willing to accept.

Excerpt
“Good news, Rory. I accept your offer.”Rory’s gray eyes widened. Clearly he hadn’t expected Kellan to accept. The woman in his arms started crying.Darien cursed under his breath.“A-are you serious?” The young wolf’s gaze flicked from Kellan to Darien. “You’ll let Brie go, and take me instead?”“Oh, I’ll be taking you, Rory. Trust me on that.” He grinned at the blush on Rory’s pale cheeks. “Darien.”Darien stepped forward and took Brie by the shoulder, lifting her out of Rory’s arms. Rory made a grab for her.“Where are you taking her?”“She’s going with Darien. He’s the new head of the Huntley household.” Kellan waited a beat. “And he owns Brie now.”“No.” Rory’s fists balled up as he glared at Kellan, his body shaking as his eyes shifted from human gray to golden wolf. “You said—”“Said I’ll take you up on your offer, and I am.” Kellan snapped his fingers. “Get up.”Rory scrambled to his feet, hatred burning a bright fire in his eyes. Kellan liked that, the fire. Rory, though slim in body and young, was a fighter. Kellan loved a good fight.Darien held Brie against his chest, with her back to him. The young woman stood stiffly, despair in her eyes as she watched her cousin walk to Kellan. They loved each other, he saw that, and he understood. He loved his brother the same. When Rory stood in front of him, close enough for Kellan to smell his fear and feel the warmth of his skin, Kellan touched the pad of a finger to the exposed skin of Rory’s neck.The young man jumped. His pulse raced, loud to Kellan’s advanced hearing.“Time for me to claim you, Rory.” He scraped his fingernail against the vein in Rory’s neck. “Mark you, so everyone will know you belong to me.” He nodded to where Darien held Brie. “My brother will do the same to your cousin, and then we’ll leave.” He bent and whispered in Rory’s ear, “We’ll consummate our mating once we get to my pack.”Rory trembled. Kellan heard his gulp, heard his heart beat stutter then speed up. Rory was afraid of him. Kellan didn’t mind it. A healthy fear was good. Kept people in their place.He breathed against Rory’s neck. “Submit to me, Rory Huntley.”Rory’s breath rattled in his chest. Kellan waited. Rory tilted his head, offering up the pale column of his neck. Kellan’s mouth watered. He licked Rory.Rory growled then stepped back. Worry in his eyes. “Please.” His voice was soft, non-threatening. “Promise me he won’t hurt Brie.” His gaze flicked to Darien.“He won’t.”“In any way,” Rory said. “Mentally or physically.”“Rory.”“She needs to be protected.”“Rory.”Rory’s eyes flashed. “And handled with care.”Kellan yanked the young wolf close and buried his canines in his neck. Rory cried out, claws digging into Kellan’s shoulder. Kellan growled at the taste of Rory’s blood, sweet and decadent, smooth like fucking thousand year old scotch. Rory melted against him, lithe body pressed tight, his erection rubbing Kellan’s. Kellan sucked on the bite, and Rory bucked.The younger man came, his seed immediately scenting the air. Kellan almost lost his control as well. It was years of discipline that kept him from flooding his jeans like a fucking teenager.Darien’s growl, and Brie’s subsequent aroused scream, filtered through his lust-fogged brain. He pulled his canines from Rory’s neck and stepped back. Rory stumbled. Kellan grabbed him, holding him steady. Rory looked up at him with cloudy gray eyes, confusion and arousal in his expression.“Dar, handle your business.” Kellan grabbed Rory, dragging him behind him as he walked out the house. His wolves flanked him, walking next to him.“Good luck. Hope you know what you’re doing, brother,” Darien said behind him.Kellan snorted as he headed toward his SUV. He didn’t need luck. He needed the delicious Rory underneath him. Stat.

Alpha's Claim Manlove Anthology: Wakeing Up Wolf by Nikka Michaels

 Welcome!!
     Today’s guest, Nikka Michaels, is no stranger to Tyler’s Naughty Notions, but her contribution to the Alpha’s Claim Manlove Anthology, is!!
     I’m thrilled to have been part of the anthology with so many of my wonderful, fellow Evernight authors!!
     So, let’s get to it with "Waking Up Wolf"  by Nikka Michaels!!

     
Strength. Power. Domination. 
     The shifters in our Alpha's Claim: Manlove Edition anthology have one thing in common—they won't take “no” for an answer. Whether they lead packs of their own, or whether they walk a solitary path, these alphas won't let anyone stop them from claiming their men.
     Lose yourself in these ten sinfully delicious love stories. After all, who could deny an Alpha’s claim?

WAKING UP WOLF:

     When a radioactive leak in the local water source turns the inhabitants of Adam Baker’s small town into shape shifting wolves, he manages to hold and survive alone--alone except for the wolves he hears in the distance. When he doesn’t immediately undergo “the change” into a wolf himself, he begins to believe he’s immune. After his dreams begin to include another wolf, he finds himself drawn to the howls outside his window and the pack’s alpha Grady Conway.

EXCERPT:

     Adam watched him carefully. “You don’t even know me. Why would you invite me back with your family, your pack?”
     Grady looked down. “What if I told you we needed you? That I needed you?” 
     Adam stared at him like he’d gone crazy.
    “Me? Why would you need me?”
    “A true alpha needs a mate.” Grady raised his head, meeting Adam’s eyes, and for a moment he couldn’t look away.
     “And you think I’m your mate?”
     “I don’t think. I know. You’re my mate, always have been.” 
     Adam backed away, and he felt himself shake and pain shoot through his body as he fell to his knees. Naked and sprawled in the dirt he stared up at Grady, who closed his eyes and shifted, leaving himself bare as well.
     Adam swallowed hard as he stared up at Grady in shock. This close he could see every single inch of the tanned and toned body of the man who commanded a pack. Muscled and imposing, he stared down at Adam, his blue eyed gaze heated.
     Without another word, Grady took a step closer, sliding his hand over the top of Adam’s head possessively. He slowly wrapped his hand around Adam’s long dark dreads and pulled his head back, exposing his neck. Adam’s eyes slammed shut as he waited for Grady to change and wolf teeth to tear out his throat. Instead, when Grady’s human teeth sank into his shoulder he shuddered and cried out. 
     Pleasure/pain surged through Adam’s body as he jerked awake, his cock throbbing as he felt hot cum stripe his belly. His legs shook as he panted for breath, his bed sheets and body soaked with sweat.
     His dreams had never been that vivid before, and when he shifted his body his muscles screamed in protest and he flopped back with a moan. 
     When he yanked back the blankets he stared.
     His feet were dirty, caked in mud along with his hands. On his neck, he could feel Grady’s teeth marks.
     He’d been marked by the alpha.

Out In The Cold by Lucy Felthouse, from the Alpha's Claim Manlove Anthology

Welcome, my lovelies!For those of you who have been around a while, you might recall a little group of authors I’ve been a part of for the last couple of years known as “The Wickedly Sexy Writers.”My guest today, Lucy Felthouse, is one of those wicked and sexy writers, and she's been known to drop in from time to time on both of my blogs. We love it when she does!! Today’s visit is extra special because she and I are both part of the hot and sexy Alpha’s Claim Manlove Anthology from Evernight.Lucy's contribution, Out of the Cold, is everything we've come to expect from any story she's penned. That being said, I promise not to make you wait a moment longer for a yummy morsel to nibble on, so let’s dig right in.
Writing a Delicious Alpha by Lucy FelthouseWhen I saw the call for submissions for the Alpha’s Claim anthologies, I knew I wanted to give it a go. I saw it fairly last minute, so only had time to write for one of the anthologies, sadly. I thought about it for a while, about what I could write, and decided to go for the Manlove Edition. Soon, I had a delicious alpha in mind, an alpha that didn’t really know he was an alpha, had a chequered past and was still hiding from it.Kane Wimborne was lots of fun to write. He’s gorgeous, dark, and has many secrets. But he’s not a bad guy, not really, just a victim of his circumstances. He was forced into the things he’s done in the past, and now lives a fairly normal, if isolated, life. I admit I was pretty mean to him, in a way. His existence is now stable, relaxed, and I went and threw some havoc in there for him, in the shape of a hunky young man almost on his doorstep.Paul Barter also leads a pretty isolated life, he keeps himself to himself and moves around a lot. But when he ends up getting beaten up and takes refuge outside Kane’s property, things rapidly start to change for both men. There are so many elements at play here, and I had lots of fun tinkering around with them. I can’t say too much because I’ll give the game away, but let’s just say that neither Kane or Paul have entirely escaped their pasts...Happy Reading!

Jogging down the driveway of his large mansion, he paused at a keypad to punch in the code that would open the gates and allow him off the property.He’d barely gotten through the gates when he saw something that made him stop dead. A human-shaped bundle was lying next to the wall on his left. Instinctively, his hand went to his pocket to check if his phone was there. Yes, he could phone for help if it was needed.Cautiously, he approached the shape, with many possibilities running through his head. It could be a homeless person or a drunk who had simply been looking for a sheltered place to sleep. It could be someone who was injured. Or he could be about to step onto a crime scene. Conscious of this last point, he called out before getting any closer—he didn’t want to inadvertently mar any evidence, should that last be correct.“Hey. You all right?” He felt stupid saying the words, because someone lying next to a wall first thing in the morning couldn’t be classified as all right, for whatever reason they were there.As there was no response, he edged a little closer and was about to shout again when a weird sensation overtook him. A sensation that he hadn’t felt in a very long time—the one that told him another shifter was nearby.He’d already been on edge, but now he hurriedly looked around him, confident that even in the dull morning light his superior vision would immediately highlight anything out of place. There was nothing. Except for the fellow shifter who was on the ground in front of him, obviously.It was clear the wall-hugger was a shifter, given that all of Kane’s senses told him there was no one else around. There rarely was at 5:30 in the morning. Now Kane realized what a good thing this was—he didn’t want any witnesses, just in case any random shifting took place. It was entirely possible—it was a natural response to threats, especially if one was injured.And if he or she wasn’t injured, why in the hell were they here?No longer bothered about contaminating a crime scene—he wouldn’t be calling the authorities on another of his kind, whoever they were—Kane crouched down beside the prone figure and searched for its neck, then its pulse. He found both, which was a relief, and at the same time he’d ascertained that the “it” was in fact a man. The stubble on the neck and jaw gave it away. It was either that or a bearded lady had absconded from the local circus.After calling out a couple more times, Kane decided that the softly-softly approach was clearly not going to work. Checking that the two of them were still alone—what he was about to do could easily stir the guy into changing—he grabbed the man’s shoulders and shook him, hard, then slapped his face for good measure.It took a few seconds, but finally, the man came round. Groaning, his hand came up to his face, where Kane had hit him. Then his other hand moved to the other side. As the guy attempted to sit up, Kane reached out to help him, then gasped.He should not have slapped his face. All he’d done was add additional pain to an already affected area. A badly abused area, in fact. The other shifter looked like he’d taken a serious beating, or fallen from the top of a very tall tree.“Christ,” Kane said, still supporting the man’s back, so he didn’t flop back down onto the pavement. “What the hell happened to you?”*****Lucy Felthouse is a very busy woman!

New Release: Alpha's Claim Anthology

It’s been a while since I’ve had a new release, but the reason isn’t because I haven’t been writing. Evernight’s Alpha’s Claim Anthology includes the first story in my upcoming shifter series, Call of the Wolf. Keep checking back over the next couple of weeks for yummy tidbits of the other stories included in anthology, from authors such as Avril Ashton, Lucy Felthouse, Nikka Michaels, Eileen Bragdon and many more.  Here’s a little taste of “The Becoming”…

Every year, wolf packs along the Texas Gulf Coast gather for what is known as the becoming. A ceremony where young adult shifters transition into their wolf form for the first time and when each wolf’s spirits selects their destined mate. As the son of an alpha, Josh Spinner has dreaded this day ever since he first realized he was gay, but planned to go through with the becoming, denying his true self forever.Braden Scott, the only son of an exiled omega wolf, has lived in the shadows of shame since his father’s banishment before he was even born. The becoming was his only shot of ever being accepted into the fold.Neither man expected their undeniable attraction and neither are prepared for the fallout that follows. Natural selection separates the men from the boys, but destiny seals their fate.    
Adult Excerpt:

“Are there always this many people here?”Josh jumped at the unexpected voice behind him. He glanced over his shoulder at the tall, dark haired guy setting up his tent a few yards away. “Yeah, it gets crazy.”The guy wiped his hand on his pants leg then extended it to Josh. “I’m Braden.”Josh shook his hand. “Josh.” Electricity zapped his fingers, and he jerked his hand back, then clenched it tight at his side. What the hell was that? A shaking smile broke across Braden’s lips. “This whole thing is amazing.”Josh shrugged, doing his best not to show signs of his impending mental breakdown. Who is this guy? “Yeah, I guess.” His vision blurred, and his ears rang.“My mom’s told me stories about this. I never thought it would actually happen though.” Josh held his breath as Braden rubbed the back of his arm across his forehead and wiped away tiny little beads of sweat that bubbled up.The instant the droplets were broken, Braden’s scent wafted toward Josh. His skin itched under the surface, and his heart raced. The fragrant smell of pine and rich, black dirt danced inside his nose. He knew that natural, earthy fragrance like he knew his own. Josh eyed the other man closely. “I, uh, I’ve never seen you around before.”Braden nodded. “I live over in Suttersville.”“Suttersville?” Nobody lived in Suttersville unless they were old or had no interest in socializing with other people. “That’s like Siberia compared to most towns.”“Yeah, but it’s quiet. I like quiet.”Josh nodded. What he wouldn’t give to live somewhere he didn’t have to pretend, somewhere he could be alone with his thoughts and not have to prove himself daily. Not have to constantly live up to his father’s impossible expectations. “I’m a big fan of peace and quiet myself.”Braden’s lips thinned as a playful grin spread wide, and Josh’s cock twitched with excitement. Braden’s brown eyes glimmered, and his already handsome features became even more pronounced.Josh tried not to stare as Braden continued to set up his tent. Each move he made drew longer gazes until Josh found himself leaning against a tall pine tree watching every move the other man made. His torso appeared solid and firm, and thick back muscles showed through the thin layer of fabric of his T-shirt every time he bent and lifted another section of the tent. Like a shiny, sleek Maserati, every line along the man’s impeccable frame begged to be touched, and Josh was tempted to do just that. The final straw came when Braden lifted the hem of his shirt and wiped more sweat from his brow. Without thinking, the instant Josh caught a glimpse of the glistening sheen of stacked stomach muscles, he reached down and squeezed his dick, savoring the feel of pre-cum rushing to the surface.Josh sucked in a gasp when Braden glanced up and caught his lustful stare.

Welcome back #MM author, Tamsin Baker

Happy November!!Today’s guest has been here so many times the last few months, I should probably refer to her as my “co-host” rather than a guest author!!!!Her tenacity for writing his inspirational and I hope she rubs off on me a little so I can finish all the manuscripts I’ve been juggling lately! I won’t keep you waiting any longer. Please welcome back, Tamsin Baker and let’s dig right in to all the yummy goodness she’s brought to share with the class.


Dylan is living his dream, fighting fires and saving lives. Bruised ribs call for a doctor visit and he meets Zach. The sexy ER surgeon tempts Dylan, with more than the casual one night stands he usually indulges in.  However Zach's life means long hours and pressure. He's left wondering if he can cope.Zach meets the gorgeous young Dylan, who is the answer to his silent prayers. The hardworking Firey is beautiful, smart and funny. What more could he ask for?But these two shift-workers have no relationship experience. Will their lives get in the way of their new love or could their incredible passion conquer all?



Excerpt:Dylan smiled up at Zach, whose wavy brown hair had been combed and gelled today. His chin was smooth from a recent shave and he wore beautiful casual clothes. Designer jeans and a fitted white cotton shirt. Yum. He barely resembled the dishevelled doctor from yesterday, yet that same confident aura was there about him.“You fix up everyone at the station do you?”He’d never seen Zach around before, but then he’d only been with this crew for twelve months.Both Les and Zach chuckled. “Yeah, sometimes.” Zach agreed, his eyes darkening slightly the longer he stared at Dylan. “Wanna come with me so I can check out your ribs again? Can we use the first aid room this time?”The captain slapped Zach on the back and nodded. “Yeah, go for it. I’ll be in my office if anyone wants me.”“Shall we?” Zach smiled at him, looking as innocent as ever. Dylan stifled the laugh as he gingerly rose and headed off in the direction of the first aid room.They entered the small room and Dylan turned, coming nose to nose with his doctor, who was breathing a little too fast.“How do you want me?” Dylan asked, lifting his chin a fraction to meet Zach’s eyes. He was six foot two without shoes on. This guy would have to be six foot four.Zach clenched his teeth, his mouth turning down in displeasure or annoyance, Dylan wasn’t sure.“Sit down and I’ll check your lungs, your blood pressure and your ribs. Then we’re done.”Dylan wasn’t sure he liked the sound of that. He didn’t want to be done with this guy so soon.Zach picked up the stethoscope with business-like air. Dylan’s belly cramped with disappointment, but he pulled off his T-shirt and sat down, allowing Zach to examine him.And examine him he did. Cold, professional fingers tapped on his ribs and palpated his bruise. Zach took his blood pressure and listened to his lungs. It was all very clinical and correct. Exactly what he would expect from a doctor, not the man whose touch yesterday had managed to miraculously pull an aroused response from his half comatose body.“Headache today?”Dylan nodded, “Yeah, but I didn’t sleep well last night.”“Your ribs were too sore?” Zach asked again, his voice brief and detached.“Yeah.” Dylan agreed, unable to believe that this was it. He’d hoped Zach liked him, would want to have a drink with him or something. Had he been wrong? Was Zach even gay, or had he misread all of those subtle signs from yesterday? One more prod of his fingers and Dylan was certain he’d got it all wrong.“All done. No fractures, just bruising and perhaps sprained cartilage. You were very lucky.”Dylan dropped his eyes to the carpet floor, picking up his T-shirt with his right hand.“Okay, thanks.” He couldn’t bring himself to look at this guy. He was angry and hurt. He had no reason to feel like that and chastised himself for being stupid. He pushed to his feet and forced himself to meet Dr Zach Shaw’s level brown stare. He was being ungrateful and needed to do better than that. Zach was an ER surgeon, his time was valuable and the last thing he’d want to do on his time off was doctor people.“It was really good of you to help me out. I appreciate it.” He turned the T-shirt in his hands, ready to put it back on, but Zach reached up and grabbed it, holding his hands still.“I’ve discharged you from my service. I’m no longer your doctor.”Dylan narrowed his eyes. What was this? Was he just trying to rub it in now? “Yeah, no problem... why...”Zach’s brown eyes showed anger and a muscle flexed in his jaw, tightening his whole demeanour.“Good. If you accept that, then I can do this.” Dylan found himself pulled forward into Zach’s arms and those luscious lips descended to press down onto his.

Tamsin Baker is back with her new ménage, Loving a Fae: Neisk!

Fall is in the air and with it has come a deep desire to curl up somewhere warm and get lost in a good book. We’re in luck today because Tamsin Baker is back and she’s brought along a tasty treat from her new all-male ménage,  Loving a Fae: Neisk
Let’s check it out…
The Fae allow three trips to Earth to sample the land’s delights, but they have rules. No revealing your magic to anyone and no same sex relationships. Neisk has followed the rules for hundreds of years and no longer wishes to hold himself back. He needs to find someone to love and he needs another man. Chris and Josh have been a couple for two years and are happily in love. The only issue is that they are both ‘bottoms’ in the bedroom. When Neisk arrives, they see it as the perfect opportunity to have a one night threesome where they can experience something they both need, together. Neisk soon falls in love with Chris and Josh, and they with him. However, the Fae elders are not pleased by Neisk’s flagrant disrespect of their rules, and haul him back to Fae. Chris and Josh must find a way up to him and beg to have him back.

Excerpt:Chris sighed with relief and nodded. Josh deserved to be comfortable in his own home.“Yeah, change into jeans and a t-shirt or something. He’ll be here soon.”Chris finished his preparations listening to the plumbing rattle a little with the shower running. Josh must have had a really busy day if he was having another shower. Ten minutes later the bell rang and Chris hurried forward to the front door. He gripped the handle and pulled, glad he was prepared for the impact Neisk’s beauty had on him Neisk stood in the doorway, two bottles of red wine in hand, looking more gorgeous than any man deserved to be. Josh was going to have a conniption.“Thank you again for the invitation, Chris.”Neisk’s smooth voice rolled over him like warm water. Soothing yet stimulating. Chris nodded, though he still didn’t know where the balls to invite this man over had come from.“Come on in, Neisk.” Chris gestured for Neisk to enter and called out for Josh. “Honey!”Josh bounded down the steps and extended his hand to greet Neisk, freezing when he saw the God of a man who stepped into the lounge room.Chris spoke into the silence, his confident lawyer freezing at the most important moment.“Neisk, this is my partner Josh. Josh, Neisk.”Josh was still staring at him so Neisk stepped forward and extended his hand.“Nice to meet you.”Josh nodded and shook the hand that was being offered.Chris stifled his chuckle. He’d never seen Josh so lost for words.“Come and sit. Dinner’s ready and I know Josh is hungry.”Neisk followed him into the dining room and sat where Chris indicated, at the head. He and Josh sat opposite each other so Chris figured Neisk may as well sit at the end.“Need some help, honey?” Josh asked, his eyes shooting daggers at Chris for the inadequate warning. Chris smothered another smile. He knew Neisk was exactly what they both liked in a Top. Gorgeous, built, relaxed but confident. Though he honestly didn’t know if Neisk was gay or not.“No babe, have a seat. Be back in five.”Chris cooked the fresh pasta and served, listening to Neisk asking Josh intelligent questions about his work.He grated some fresh parmesan over the pesto and took the bowls in to the dining room, his belly flipping with excitement. Over what, he didn’t know.“Something quick and easy.” He put the bowls down and went back for the salad.When he returned, Neisk was giving him one of those heartbreakingly beautiful smiles. “It’s lovely, Chris. I hope I didn’t disturb any plans you had.”Chris sat down quickly before his legs gave out and grabbed his wine glass that Josh must have filled.  Buy Links:Amazon:  http://www.amazon.com/Loving-Fae-Neisk-Tamsin-Baker-ebook/dp/B00FYUEE3A/ref=sr_1_6?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1382252127&sr=1-6&keywords=tamsin+baker

Celebrating October's National Coming Out Day and #LGBT #SpiritDay !!


In honor of October’s National “Coming Out” Day (Oct. 10th) and #SpiritDay (Oct. 17th), I thought I would invite you, my lovely friends to share your own coming out experience or your experience with a loved one or friend who came out to you.
I'll go first...In a time, long, long ago, better known as the 20th century, I lived in a small, southern town where people rarely dared to be different or strayed too far from the "norm". It was a boring place, filled with muted pastels, and lacked true vibrancy of expression and originality, where having an open mind meant you were a trouble maker or one of those "bad" kids, destined for prison or to be found dead in a gutter, whichever came first Fortunately, for me, I'd been raised outside the box, by parents who grew up during a time when sex, drugs and rock-n-roll were frequently explored and shared by the vast majority of youths in our great nation. (A.K.A, The original trouble makers. J )I was born at the tail-end of this glorious movement, and just as I entered my teenage years in the 80s, the flower children and hippies of the previous generation had begun to fade away or sold themselves out, turning their backs on everything they had stood for by conforming and giving into "the man". Meanwhile, older conservatives (our parents’ parents) were becoming lawmakers and endeavored to whip the product of their offspring's frivolity back into submission by doing what they could to put an end to the liberal "free love" movement and all degrees of progress, despite the great strides that had been made regarding civil rights. In reality though, keeping up appearances were about all they were able to accomplish. I like to refer to this time as the “everything’s just swell” era! Despite their efforts though, the seeds had been planted. So, while on the outside, families gathered in front of cameras posing for their annual Christmas cards with their big hair and matching sweaters, behind the rose colored lenses, those who dared to be different, by actually being themselves, were learning how to survive while living lies and keeping secrets, thus expanding the ever-growing proverbial closet. Now, mind you, my parents were rather open people and whether or not they'd intended to teach us to be the same, it still happened regardless. I grew up aware of their lesbian friends and even understood that those women dated other women, not men.
The lifestyle was "normal" to me, no different than my parents or my parents’ straight friends. So when rumors started going around that my best friend was secretly seeing a girl, I shocked even myself by being upset about it.There was no reason for my unhappiness and no reason for what I said to her when she attempted to tell me her truth.I'm ashamed of myself now, though in my defense, I was very young and confused. Add in a ton of teenage hormones and coming to terms with my own sexuality, it's now a bit more understandable why I rejected her by making it quite clear that if she were gay, I would no longer be her friend. Yeah, I really said that. I immediately hated myself for it and it wasn't long before I apologized. My actions were based purely on fear. Fear that if she was gay, I must have been as well, especially considering how much I really loved her. That too, opened up a new can of worms… Was I jealous? Was I curious? Was I angry? Was I even more confused than ever? The simple answer to all of the above is a resounding ... YES!!!Yes, I was jealous because now there was this other girl in her life. A girl she was closer to than she was with me ... okay so it was a different kind of close ... but still.I was curious, naturally, as most people are. I wondered how things were "different" for them than it was between girls and boys. And the fact that both of them had been with boys too, confused me even more. Then there were my own feelings to consider. Questions about my own sexuality. I found my friend attractive, and yes, I even wondered why she'd chosen another girl to "like" when I was right there. What the hell was wrong with me? Was I that hideous? I mean, if she was gonna experiment, why not go for the one who had been there all along rather than a completely new person? It might not make sense now, but back then, during a time when most adolescence are just coming to terms with who they think they are, I had even more crap on my plate than usual, and nobody to really turn to. What if my thoughts and feelings weren't normal at all? What if I was a lesbian, too? What if my other friends didn't understand or what if they rejected me the way I had originally rejected her? As you can see, there was a lot going on in my head and it took a few years before I figured it all out completely. After I accepted that she was who she was, and that it really had nothing to do with me, I was able to accept that there would always be other girls/women in her life in "that" respect. It actually made it easier for me to resolve all of my own questions and curiosities. It also made it easier to be honest with her and let her know that no matter her sexuality, I supported her and always would no matter what, because I loved her and her happiness was as important to me as she was. Separating my identity from who she was, and realizing that although we were close friends, we were individuals and that no matter our differences we were still the same people, made it much easier to accept myself. When I look back, the experience still brings back those feelings of angst and worry, but after a lot of soul searching and some "scientific" experimenting of my own, (*wink wink) I now know beyond a shadow of a doubt that, although I've kissed a girl and I liked it, I like MEN even more. In fact, I enjoy men so much, creating my pseudonym, Tyler Robbins wasn't as tough a decision as I first thought it would be. Tyler has even allowed me to explore just how much I like men ... and even better, how much I like  men who like men!! Today, I have four fabulous kids who've all been raised with the same open-minded, unconditional love that I had been raised to believe in. I've made it quite clear to all of my kids that no matter who they choose to love in life, it will never effect how much I love them. I hope they never experience an ounce of hatred or prejudice, and although that's a tall order for one mom, it isn't so hard to imagine if we all work together and do our part by supporting equality for all humans. 
It's just the right thing to do.

*Has someone you love come out to you? *How did you deal with it? *Did everyone in your family or circle of friends feel the same as you?*Did you come out to your family and friends? *If so, how did it go?*Do you want to come out to family and/or friends and just aren’t sure how to do it? Let’s talk about it. Leave your story in a comment.If you or a loved one is struggling with your/their sexuality, check out the sites below. This is a new era and the closet doesn't have to stay closed anymore. Someone's waiting just outside, ready to take your hand and show you the love and acceptance all humans deserve.

Be Warned: m/m sex Excerpt:
“If I kissed you, would you punch me?” Felix asked. He looked down at Bryce where they stood outside his front door.The porch light Bryce had turned on before he left shined down on them.Bryce laughed, low and breathy, and watched the way Felix’s eyes went dark. Felix’s hand on his shoulder tightened before loosening.“Maybe,” Bryce said. He wasn’t serious, but was somehow unable to keep from teasing Felix. Low heat curled in his stomach, anticipation running high through his veins.“Cold and cruel. Not sure if I want to risk it when I know how vicious you can be,” Felix said. He swooped down and did it anyway.Felix’s mouth was soft against Bryce’s, his lips thin but soft. When Bryce opened his mouth for the welcomed thrust of Felix’s tongue, he tasted faint traces of chocolate and coffee. The kiss went hot, but stayed sweet with Felix in control, his mouth a hair shy of too gentle as he tangled his fingers in Bryce’s hair. Felix tilted his head and changed the angle of the kiss, made it deeper, hotter, a shade or two rougher, and Bryce groaned into it.Bryce finally pulled back far enough to look up into Felix’s eyes. He stared at him, searched his gaze for a moment, and then had to admit he’d already made his decision. He’d made it as soon as Felix asked him out.“Come inside with me?” he asked softly.Felix’s eyes went wide then narrowed slightly. “You sure, Bryce? Because I don’t want this to be a one-time thing, I don’t want casual sex with you. If we do this, then I want us to do it right.” Felix’s face was serious, gaze sharp and attention focused.That same warmth curl worked its way through Bryce’s chest, all because Felix wanted what he wanted. It was glorious.“Oh yeah, I’m sure. We want the same thing, and we’ve known each other for months now. I’m tired of not admitting what I want, tired of not having you when it’s all I think about,” Bryce said, his voice low and steady, his gaze direct. He wasn’t ashamed of what he wanted, not now, not ever.“So, I guess it’s safe to say those lines actually did work.” Felix grinned down at him, expression delighted, but filled with heat.“Shut up,” Bryce said. The words came out as more of a huff before he reached up and pulled Felix back down into another heated kiss.Felix ended the kiss then, pulled back and nudged Bryce forward to unlock his door. While Bryce was busy, Felix slid up behind him and dropped nipping kisses on the side of his neck. Bryce shivered and fumbled with his key as Felix chuckled, low and warm, behind him until he finally managed to get the door open.He gestured for Felix to wait on the porch for a second as he slipped inside. He petted Snarl, reminded himself to introduce the two of them later, and then let the dog out into the fenced in yard. Felix waited for him underneath the light of the front porch. When Bryce got back, he noticed the way Felix looked, hair disheveled and mouth slightly swollen. Bryce couldn’t pull him forward into the house and another kiss fast enough.They were noticeably wilder then. Their hands roamed over each other as Felix closed the door with his foot, and crowded Bryce against the nearest wall. Felix tugged at Bryce’s shirt until it slipped out of his waistband, and wasted no time in getting his hands on Bryce’s skin. He traced his way across Bryce’s stomach and up his chest. Felix raked Bryce’s nipples with his nails. Bryce gasped and bucked his hips up as he broke the kiss. His cock pressed against his zipper painfully as he panted up at Felix.“Bedroom.” Bryce practically rasped the word out. He groaned low and deep in his throat when Felix’s mouthed at his neck, his tongue skating along his skin before he nipped him sharply.
Bryce pulled Felix’s shirt completely off then tugged at the fly of his pants as they stumbled towards his bedroom. Felix’s hands were just as busy, and by the time they managed to get to Bryce’s room, their shoes and socks were abandoned somewhere behind them. They stood at the end of his bed, panting, and stared at each other for a moment, and then Felix moved. He pushed Bryce, who fell back against the mattress, legs splayed and pants riding low on his hips.
