Leaning Into the Fall is Here!

That's right! Book 2 in my newest series, Leaning Into Stories, is officially out and available at all ebook storefronts. Andy yes, it will be soon be available in paperback as well. This is my first true foray into self-publishing and I'm very excited (and nervous). The advantage of cutting cost to the readers is a huge plus! Leaning Into the Fall is just $3.99! Nice deal, right?

Leaning Into the Fall is Nick's story. You may remember him from the short story, Leaning Into the Fall. He's a quirky genius who tends to speak before he thinks which makes him seem a tad nutty at times. Let's face it, the most interesting people usually are a little mad. LOL

Leaning Into Love is Out Now!!!

Leaning Into Love is Book 1 in my new series set in San Francisco. If you read It Was Always You, the anthology I participated in with N.R. Walker, Riley Hart, Felice Stevens, Cardeno C, Christina Lee and Ella Frank, you may remember my short. IWAY is no longer available but I re-released my story with a bonus chapter! It's available now on Amazon KU for 99 cents! The next book, Leaning Into the Fall, will be here next month and will be available in all formats, including paperback. I'm very excited to introduce readers to my new SF boys in this friends-to-lovers story, which by the way, is my first self-pub! :-) Check it out here!

Better Than Engagement, Matt & Aaron Short Story Info and Other News!

Why did I think life would slow down a bit after GRL? It never does. I haven't posted any updates here in a while so I wanted to check in with some new info. I just released part 3 of a free short story called Better Than Engagement, featuring Matt & Aaron from Better Than Good. It takes place roughly at the same time as Better Than Safe. My plan is to post weekly installments leading up to the release of the next book in my new Leaning Into Stories series. Here is the link to part 3. All three are on my blog. Warning, some scenes are NSFW ;-) ...https://lanehayes.wordpress.com/2016/...

2017 is already shaping up to be a busy year. I'm hoping the next book in Leaning Into will be out by mid Feb. The first book, Leaning Into Love, was part of the anthology, It Was Always You. If you missed it, don't worry, I will rerelease it before book two on its own with a new cover. I'm very excited to introduce you all to my San Francisco boys! And yes...there's one more A Kind of Story book coming too!

By the way, It Was Always You was nominated in the MM Members Choice Awards along with A Kind of Truth, A Kind of Romance, A Kind of Honesty and yours truly. So freaking exciting! Polls close tomorrow at midnight. If you haven't already voted, please do.

I know 2016 was a rough year for quite a few of us. 2017 has got to be better, right? May your 2017 be filled with love, kindness and hope. And lots of wonderful books!
