Sinossi:
Le campane suonano a festa a Waikiki! Riusciranno finalmente Mingo e Francois a sposarsi senza intoppi?
Ovviamente… no! Mingo McCloud, il contabile forense più sexy di Honolulu – ok, ok, è l’unico contabile forense di Honolulu – attira i guai non appena si alza dal letto la mattina.
Nel giorno in cui progetta di fare di Francois un uomo onesto, tutto va storto. La testimone di Mingo, la sua migliore amica Leilani, scompare insieme al suo cane. Non solo: qualcuno ha mandato alla coppia felice un regalo non soltanto brutto, ma anche illegale, che potrebbe farli finire in gattabuia…
Ah, giusto: Benny Leonard vuole assumere Mingo per un nuovo, esplosivo caso di omicidio. Proprio oggi.
Come esperto di sicurezza, Francois è furioso all’idea che il suo compagno abbia accettato un’opera d’arte, la più brutta che si sia mai vista, al centro di un grosso scandalo internazionale. Chi è stato a inviarla? Chi è che vuole assolutamente vedere i due finire in una cella? Forse l’ex di Mingo, Kaolin Grace? Francois è deciso a svelare il mistero e a percorrere insieme a Mingo una navata disseminata di gardenie, a costo di doverlo legare.

Australian-born Montago Melon, “Tago” to all those who know him, has lived in a fantasy world since he was a kid. His heart is in Hollywood, and his family constantly accuse him of “California Dreamin’.” When his grandma dies and leaves him money, and his long-last aunt reaches out to him from California to offer him a job, he jumps at the chance of a new life, swimming pools, and movie stars. He soon learns, however, that some dreams come with a nasty aftertaste.
Byrne McCallum is California born and bred. Working for the dynamic Ondine Bartholomew in a hot new Hollywood set-salvaging company, he becomes immediately intrigued by Ondine’s latest employee, her naïve but super-smart nephew Tago.
Bad things happen to Tago the moment he lands at LAX, but Byrne plans to change the guy’s run of luck. He hasn’t felt this way about a man in a long time. Can they make a go of things? And better still, can they have a happy Hollywood ending?

Can a lost love ever find its way home again?
Rudy Keller’s always felt like a bit of a misfit. Growing up, he felt different from everyone around him. Somehow, every toy he was given at Christmas was either missing parts or just didn’t work. As an adult, he’s taken a weird pleasure in collecting toy farm animals that are broken, especially reindeer called Rudolph. Meeting Boris, his Finnish boyfriend and one of the few vets in the town of Kemi, Rudy feels like an outsider all over again in the tiny, freezing town close to the Arctic Circle.
Somehow though, he and Boris fit perfectly and now that gay marriage is legal in Finland, Rudy’s keen to tie the knot. But now, after a decade of waiting, Boris is balking at the idea. In fact, he ends his relationship with Rudy, who flies home to Santa Claus Lane, a tiny eccentric neighborhood in Santa Barbara, California. He seeks comfort from his family and the familiarity of his idyllic enclave, which is actually only a street. But everything’s changed and Rudy’s in for one shock after another. Can his anguished heart reclaim what he’s lost, and what is his, on Santa Claus Lane?

ORGASMIC TEXAS DAWN and the DEATH of D.J. MANLY
Purchase Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09VZQLXG3
Orgasmic Texas Dawn, my M/M, US Marshal series co-authored with D.J. Manly is finally becoming available again.
Book 1 is out today with the others following soon. Lex Valentine created this cover for us and it’s a bittersweet time for me since I had hoped to give all the proceeds to DJ to help her fray the costs of her lengthy battle with cancer. Unfortunately, my beloved friend and frequent co-author died on March 21 after her breast cancer spread to her bones late December 2020 and finally invaded her liver last month.
I still cannot believe she is gone.
Now all proceeds will go to her grieving widower, Donald.
I will never get over losing her and in time will finish the six books we were working on in other series. I cannot believe I’ll never hear her fantastic laugh again or talk world politics or…wow. Anything.
I can’t say more now except there will never be another D.J. She was a pioneer in our genre and an unbelievably talented and kind person.
Synopsis:
Canadian cop Kieran Fox has fallen from grace after a disastrous romance with the wrong guy—the head of a drug cartel. When Sheriff Dillon DePriest moseys on up north begging Kieran to come to his town of Lone Trail, Texas, to help him deal with a gang of murderous drug dealers, Kieran agrees, if only to get away from the scene of his own crime.
Soon thereafter, Kieran learns that the tough little Texas town is knees-deep in an escalating mystery. There’s a cross-dressing Cher impersonator, a killer missing some gold teeth and his…er…dangly bits. And worse, there’s Kieran’s growing attraction for Lone Trail’s sexy U.S. Marshal, Jubilee Mason, that he neither wants or needs.

Synopsis:
Honolulu detective Quinn Novak has to enter another realm to find scorching-hot sex. How far does he have to travel to find true love?
Quinn Novak is a Honolulu Police Department detective working an unusual case. A string of robberies have taken place in homes tented for termites in the economically depressed town of Makaha Beach. A gang of thieves appears to be trailing pest control units then breaking in, so Quinn is assigned to watch over a particularly important dignitary’s home late one night. Quinn has a problem, however. He’s afraid of the dark.
He’s never told a soul and seems to be coping with his phobia until he spies two men breaking in and follows them, despite of the dangers of the pesticide–and the dark.
Once inside the house, he appears to enter another realm–one filled with hot men who want… him. Quinn has the most incredible threesome of his life, but then must leave the house. How the heck does he get back in? And can he? Now, suddenly, he wants to get back to black… back to the dark and the two men he left inside the house. Can he ever find them again?

Tame Synopsis:
Cavan Carmichael has just transferred to LAPD from rural Oregon. It’s Halloween and he’s expecting…well, the unexpected, since it’s the time of spooky things, and this is LA, after all. Nobody, however, could have predicted an animal abuse call that turns out to reveal a beaten, chained-up man in a garden shed.
Then come the words that Cavan knows will haunt him for life: “Don’t worry, I’m tame.”
Cavan rescues the man who, underneath the bruises and blood, is very handsome. And mysterious. Nothing about the stranger adds up. Nothing he says makes sense. For every medical test the doctors perform, only more questions arise. When Ludo, as he insists he be called, is admitted to the hospital, he has grievous injuries inflicted by a despicable assailant via antique torture instruments.
Unbelievably, Ludo’s injuries heal fast and Cavan, who visits the recuperating man, is astonished to find he is attracted and protective of the man. But can Cavan overlook the oddities, such as bristles under the man’s tongue? The strange wolf hairs in his wounds? Is the most beautiful man Cavan has ever seen really…tame?
Savage Synopsis:
LAPD cop Cavan Carmichael is more in love than ever with Ludo, the man he rescued during a nightmare raid in a Brentwood, CA house. Ludo, who must fight his werewolf inclinations to kill, has eighteen months to go before he can swim across the lake in Argentina that cursed him in the first place.
But it ain’t easy.
One hot August night in the middle of a family barbecue, Cavan is disturbed not only by Ludo’s increasing moodiness, but also the stone statues of wolves that populate the exterior of the building next door. Also, somebody’s following Cavan, and he soon learns that a second man has been beaten and tortured at the same residence in Brentwood where he’d rescued Ludo. And to make matters worse, when Cavan and his workmates rush to the property, they discover that the victim is somebody from Cavan’s past.
Secrets are revealed, mysteries deepen, and a shocking, age-old legend puts Cavan’s life at risk. But Ludo tells him not to worry, that he would never let anyone hurt his man. “When I’m pushed to the wall,” Ludo says, “I’m savage…”
