You're Worth It

Will is gay, a sweet but forgetful wolf shifter who doesn't seem to have any standards for who he "dates." That bothers his partner far more than it should.
Elliot (who is definitely, definitely not gay) was deeply traumatized by growing up in a strict belief system. In his mind, there's nothing to be gained from examining too closely who he might be. Nothing but pain, heartbreak, maybe even damnation.
An overly-friendly fox shifter, a fat orange housecat, and a lot of soul-searching may end up changing his mind.
Because sometimes secrets won't stay buried. And at some point, he has to tell the truth, to himself—and to Will.

How to Hire A Vampire Consultant

How to Hire A Vampire Consultantby Hollis Shiloh
Steve isn't used to being the responsible party. He's not even a real agent at the Paranormal Research Agency—he's here on parole. But right now, a lot of the PRA's people are missing, and Steve and the librarian might be the only ones who can save them. While she researches like her life depends on it, Steve's running around mopping up monstrous messes. He needs all the help he can get—even from a sassy vampire. Barnaby the vampire is kind of hot (for a twink), and not nearly as badass as he likes to think. Even if he did save Steve's life. Between the three of them, they might just have what it takes to save the day.

Wolf at the Door

Wolf at the Doorby Hollis Shiloh
Devin has a lot to prove.
Rickey is just here for the free food.
Devin's here to get a wolf shifter as a partner. The short, loud redhead intends to be the best cop in his class and doesn't care if he gets on everyone's nerves in the process. He loves fancy sports cars and has a competitive nature.
Rickey likes the van life and living by his own terms. But times have been tight for the wolf shifter lately, and signing up for this course seems like an easy way to keep the wolf from the door. All the free food he can eat, if he sits through some classes. What could go wrong?
The two guys have chemistry, despite being so different. They could be friends at least, maybe partners. But there's an underlying sexual chemistry that's getting harder and harder to ignore...

Poison at the Bake Sale

Poison at the Bake Saleby Hollis Shiloh
Abe has an awful premonition that something will go wrong during a local baking contest. Of course it's his silly imagination; he's just jumpy these days, after that murder last year. But when the day of the competition means running into his abusive ex, who later turns up dead, Abe wishes that he'd paid more attention to his anxieties, not less.
Now it's up to Abe and Gregory to figure out who could have done in the awful man. Because the authorities are looking awfully close to home, and there's only so much strain that even the best relationship can take.

My Fox Mate

He wasn't expecting to meet his mate yet. He also wasn't expecting his mate to be a fox shifter—or a man.
Marlow's childhood was a nightmare, as an orphaned wolf shifter trying to survive a hostile pack and protect his younger brother. At twenty-three, he's finally in a good place, with a great job working with the police and a partner he trusts. But is he ready for a mate?
Even if he can wrap his head and his heart around this, is there any chance for a good outcome? Marlow has no idea how to even begin talking to a pretty fox shifter. It would help if Frankie didn't hate him already...

Three Legs
When Jacob wakes up in pain, missing a leg, his life changes forever. Discharged from the military, he has to find a way to heal and live the best life he can. It's easier in wolf form, where he has three legs instead of one. Finding a new home and a place of peace for himself takes effort and time, but it's worth it. Only he starts to feel lonely, as if one more piece is missing...a mate of his own.

I'm Your Guy (Shifters and Partners)

I'm Your Guyby Hollis Shiloh
Harris and James served in the military together, back in the day. Now one is a cop and one is a private eye, but they're both barely making it.
James, half-wolf and secretive about it, has had confused feelings for Harris for a long time. Figuring out he was gay was pretty damned painful, and the only guy he has any real interest in is never going to feel the same way.
As for Harris? Definitely straight. It's odd that he notices guys sometimes, but he's always dated girls. Maybe a little desperately. It's not something he thinks about much — except for when he does.
These days, they try to stay away from each other, but that's not always possible. Throw a sassy fox shifter into the mix, and the things they've both tried to hide might come out after all.
