My Books: Not Just M/F Anymore. Here's Why.

Recently I announced my latest soon-to-be published novel, Haunted Passions. Perhaps the most obvious thing about Haunted Passions is that it's a ménage. Not only is it a ménage, but an m/m/f ménage, where an existing m/m relationship transitions into a ménage a trois. In this respect, Haunted Passions is unlike all the books I've published so far, which have all been m/f romances.

I don't just get exciting story ideas for m/f romances, but for less conventional couples (and groups of three) as well. As it just so happens, Haunted Passions sort of kills two birds with one stone by making it clear that I like to write m/m and ménage romance. In the future, you can expect to see more diversity among the lovers in my stories, in addition to more m/f romance, of course.

On a more personal note, the decision to go ahead and publish a romance with an m/m relationship was something I contemplated for a while before actually commiting to, because not everyone in my life is respectful of real-life gay or non-traditional relationships, let alone me deciding to write fictional ones. While I know the content wouldn't be a big deal to many people, I know I'm setting myself up for harsh judgment by publishing these sorts of books. However, I'm not in the business of trying to please everybody (I wouldn't be writing erotic romance if I was), and it's not in my nature to let that stop me from writing the stories I'm passionate about. And I didn't want to publish my non-m/f work under a pen name because I'm just as proud of it as my other work, and I think that many of the readers who enjoy my m/f work will enjoy my less traditional gender pairings/groupings as well. After all, regardless of the characters' gender(s), readers can still expect the same sexy trifecta that's at the core of every Ranae Rose book: true love, sizzling sex and a happy ending. ;)

So here it is, my debut ménage romance...


John Crane and Brom Bones are passionately in love – with each other, and with local beauty Katrina Van Tassel. When Brom becomes engaged to Katrina, John is sure the wedding will tear them apart. But Brom is determined to keep both of his lovers, and Katrina has some secret desires of her own. Is it possible for three people to be in love? Their passion won't be enough to keep them together if something isn't done about the evil that's haunting Sleepy Hollow: a headless horseman who rides to kill.
