The Twins: Talon & Prin’s Year in Review for 2014

THE TWINS’ 2014 YEAR IN REVIEW

2014 was kicked off with the continued hard labors of Princess and the twins’ editor: Alison Greene, when they had begun back in summer of 2013 a mass overhaul of all of Talon’s previously released books to fix the issues left behind by people who’d had no reason to call themselves editors. Eight books got a some loving attention and released them out in print several with new covers.

The largest endeavor being BECOMING HIS SLAVE which also got an additional 40k words added in bring the book’s total word count to just under 300k.

The next to be re-released in 2014 was A PLACE FOR CLIFF with an additional 7k words added in and was also released in French, UN HAVRE POUR; thanks to the loving attention of translator Jade Baiser!  And we could not have asked for a better reward than to see Un Havre pour Cliff hit #3 in Gay Erotica and Gay Romance.

Rough Attraction wasn’t in need of much work but got a run through just to be sure before going into print.

Now with all the previously published books restored to a higher quality, Princess was finally able to move forward and start finishing the remaining titles she and Talon had started, plus a few surprise stories that jumped into the middle of all that.

2014 saw four new releases:

A PLANE FROM NOWHERE ~ Princess’s first solo title, part of her Teddy Bear Collection aslo became the first book the twins released through a publisher: Dreamspinner Press

KEEPING HIS DESTINY ~ Princess’s debut Post-Apocalyptic Dark Fantasy

DOMMING THE HEIRESS ~ Talon’s red-head heiress finally gave in and her book, though released out of chronological order was released to add some hot steamy reading to Talon’s Bestselling series: the Dominion of Brothers.

BIG SPOON & TEDDY BEAR ~ originally meant to be release through DSP in an anthology, it didn’t get selected, much to the delight of the twins’ fans. The book having started with inly 12k words was given free reign, letting her character tell their full story and was released becoming the second book in the Teddy Bear Collection.

COVER CREATION by Princess SO has really taken off and get some awesome attention through authors like Rick Johnson, CK Long, and A.E. Via with published work released in 2014 for:

HERE COMES TROUBLE ~ A.E. Via                                                                EMBRACING HIS SIN ~ A.E. Via

NOTHING SPECIAL ~ Revised Edition ~ A.E. Via                                        BLUE MOON II ~ A.E. Via

NATHAN’S CHOICE ~ C.K. Long                                                                     SAMANTHA’S CHOICE ~ C.K. Long

ANGEL THE DOG ~ K. Hope & Rick Johnson                                                A GOOBER’S BEST FRIEND ~ Rick Johnson

STILTS ~ Earl Chessher

More Cover Creations by Princess SO will be hitting ereaders in 2015 with authors such as: TN Tarrant, Faith, Rick Johnson, and CR Guiliano,

The Twins also a few spectacular nominations for excellence in 2014 that included

KEEPING HIS DESTINY ~ was nominated and made top finalist along with only two others: Eva Langlaise and Sherrilyn Kenyon for Best Sci-fi Novel of the year by Authors After dark. And we have to just say it’s an elating feeling to see ones name rubbing elbows with the likes of those two spectacular authors.

A PLACE FOR CLIFF ~ not only got an Honorable mention but made 3rd place in the 2014 RAINBOW AWARDS Best Gay Erotic Romance.

BLUE MOON II by AE. Via ~ the cover made the top finalist for the MM Goodreads’ best cover art for 2014.

SO WHAT’S COMING FOR 2015?

For starters still working to finish the next release in the DOMINION OF BROTHERS SERIES: TAKING OVER TROFIM.

Originally scheduled for release at the end of December 2014, the book took on some new details that will carry out throughout the remaining books of the series and there was no way to rush it. But is scheduled to be released for the Twins’ birthday on January 29th !

And of course when you have a birthday for twins, everything has to be done in twos. So Princess will be releasing a standalone read: MUSE ME ONLY !

 

Afterwards, Princess will be turning her attention towards finishing off two other series sets she and Talon started:

QUANTUM MATES part 2: Catching LEE

TO CATCH A CAT: The Lycotharian Collection

 

Also hoping to be released in 2015

MOJ TOVARAS ~ co-written with Damir & Ethan LJ

SHAGGIN’ the DEAD – The Teddy Bear Collection

RIGHT ONE 4 DIESEL ~ The Most anticipated book from the DoB series has been pushed back much later than hoped due to a cliff hanger that will surely have the lynch mob after Princess. So book five of the DoB series won’t be released until book 6 Touching Vida-Vince is also ready for an immediate release) It will be safer for Prin this way— lol

 

It’s already a full load but if the Book Gods are shining down on Prin she also hopes to have the last two books in the Dear Soldier series complete and released before the year is over.

 

 

Well, we’ve got our work cut out for us, so we best get busy.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE !!
We Love you all and wish your year to be blessed with Warm Winds and More of Everything !!!
