Cover Reveal | Vampire Lee

We have a cover!!! Vampire Lee is on the way 🥳   

We’re running a little late, but I’m sure it’ll be fine. The edits aren’t done, and I’m waiting for preorder links. It will be released on May 18th, though. Never worry about that. We’ll get it done.  

For now, I’ll let you gaze upon the cover 😍   

Vampire Lee is a sequel to A Vampire Chew Toy. If you remember the blood slaves in the underground mansion, you may remember Dillon. This story is about him and Vampire Lee. Lee is a bartender in a shifter bar, a nobody, no one important at all, nothing special, but he hears something he shouldn’t, and he can’t ignore it. So he contacts the only people he believes can do something about it. And there he meets Dillon.  

But, as I said, all I have at this point is the cover. 

Vampire Lee

Can you chase away imaginary monsters with real life monsters?  

Dillon Ross lives in a huge mansion together with six other people. Four of them turn furry, one drinks blood regularly, and one is a former blood slave, just like him. Seven months ago, he was rescued from a fate worse than death, and he’s been doing his best to avoid people ever since. Which is hard when you have well-meaning but nosy roommates.   

Lee Dowell is a vampire working in a shifter bar. One day, he hears something he wasn’t meant to hear, and while his first reaction is to ignore it, he reaches out to the supernatural version of the police. It might not have been his smartest move, since he now has a target on his back.  

Dillon isn’t pleased to realize he is sharing a floor with a vampire. There are enough monsters in his head, he doesn’t need one in his space too. But Lee has put himself in danger by trying to help some people held captive, and his roommates are trying to keep him safe. Lee doesn’t do humans, but when Dillon’s nightmares wake him time and time again, he wants nothing more than to gather him in his arms and chase away his fears. But can you chase away imaginary monsters with real life monsters?

The List | Gay Romance Vampire Books

It’s List time again, and I know I said last month, that I haven’t read enough (queer) vampire books to make a list, but this month’s release is also a vampire book. And next month’s release will ALSO be a vampire book.   

So let’s just list some vampire books. The majority will be written by me, but… 😆 

Payback

Let’s start with Payback (Channeling Morpheus/Sweet Oblivion 1) by Jordan Castillo Price. You really should read all of these. It’s a short story series, and no one should live a life without Wild Bill. You shouldn’t. So…

The hunt is on.

Pretty young men and women like Michael’s best friend, Scary Mary, are disappearing from underground goth clubs all over Detroit. For over two years, Michael has been scouring the midwest for buried newspaper articles and obscure medical reports, and now he’s finally pinpointed the source of the problem. Too bad he can’t exactly go to the cops and tell them his friend was murdered by vampires. Since it’s his duty to start wiping out the scourge, he’s posing as bait—and he’s got a bag of sharpened hickory stakes to do the job.

Everything should go smoothly, given the amount of preparation that Michael has put into the hunt. He’s got a practiced repertoire of come-hither eyeliner looks and a full blister-pack of the date rape drug Rohypnol. But he didn’t count on Wild Bill showing up.

Wild Bill is a vision in spiked hair and scuffed black leather—exactly the type of guy Michael would have fallen for…if he’d ever had the chance. Unfortunately, with a vampire in his sights, Michael has no time for an actual date. Despite his best efforts, it seems there’s nothing Michael can do to shake Bill loose. Looks like they’re in for a wild, wild ride.

One Bite With a Vampire

One Bite With a Vampire (Hidden Species #2) by Louisa Masters. I love this series so much! This is the only vampire story in it, but they’re all awesome no matter which species they are.

Getting kidnapped was never part of my life plan. But being rescued opened up a whole world of crazy.

It’s not easy being the only human at the Community of Species Government—and especially not when you’re the rescue case. Two years ago, I was planning to go to college, have a wild time, then settle into a normal life. Instead, I was kidnapped, spent months being a test subject, was in hiding for nearly a year, and then found out that my whole existence is a science experiment conducted by the bad guys. It’s definitely time to reassess.

My rescuers at CSG have been awesome… mostly. They gave me a job, a home, and a support network. But the whole demons, vampires, shifters thing is not easy to get used to. Especially when one particular vampire makes me want to take up stake sharpening for a hobby. How can someone be over eight centuries old and have the maturity of a drunk frat boy?
The thing is, teenage mentality or not, Andrew is a fierce protector. With the bad guys still on the loose, I need someone like that on my side. Plus, did I mention that he’s not hard to look at? I could stare at him all day if only he never opened his mouth.

As we race to find my former captor before he can find me, life takes another twist and upends my world all over again. This time, though, I’m ready—after all, I’ve got an eight-hundred-year-old vampire at my back. What could possibly go wrong?

Twice Bitten 

Twice Bitten (Mismatched Mates #6.5) by Eliot Grayson. I haven’t read all the Mismatched Matched books, but they’re fun and easily consumed.

A werewolf walks into a vampire bar… ouch.

Vampire enforcer Angelo has enough problems already, and a tall, dark, and irritating alpha werewolf is the last thing he needs.

With his cheating, murderous mate on the run, Jack’s looking for help from the local authorities—who assign Angelo to solve the problem quickly.

They don’t have anything in common on paper, but sharing magical compatibility, a sense of humor, and a common goal can build a bond—whether mundane or otherwise. Even when another bond’s impossible…

Warning: Contains magical attack scorpions, knotting, and a vampire who’s desperate to avoid ruining his suit, falling in love, or other catastrophes. Spoiler alert: He falls in love. Does he ruin his suit, though? Read and find out! Happy ending guaranteed.

Amazon

Hunter of Demons

Hunter of Demons (SPECTR 1) by Jordan L. Hawk. This is a little different from what we’re used to when it comes to vampires because Gray is a spirit who possesses Caleb and drinks demon blood. Interesting? Yes.

What happens when an exorcist falls in love with a demon he’s sworn to destroy?

Caleb Jansen’s life is going from bad to worse. First he’s possessed by an opinionated vampire spirit who drinks the blood of demons, then pursued by a fundamentalist group who want him dead.

His only hope is hotshot federal exorcist John Starkweather…the last man Caleb should be falling for, and the only one he wants in his bed.

Amazon

The Vampire’s Werewolf Bodyguard

The Vampire’s Werewolf Bodyguard by Liv Rider. This is more what we’re used to with vampire romances. A vampire and werewolf who, of course, are enemies, but… I like this one!

What happens when an out-of-control werewolf is hired to guard his immortal enemy?

Simon Caley barely survived an assassin’s strike. The reclusive vampire trusts no one, but he’s still in danger, and the attack left him too weak to defend himself. He needs protection while he hunts for the mastermind behind the attack.

Cody Weston’s werewolf instincts make him a good bodyguard—but only if he can control his wolf. After an accidental shift on the job, he’s on probation, until his boss calls about a very unusual client.

Instincts and tempers flare when they meet, along with something unexpected: desire. Simon’s not just Cody’s fated enemy, he’s his fated mate too. Can the vampire and his werewolf bodyguard work past their differences and save each other, or will Cody lose control—and hurt the man he’s sworn to protect?

Amazon

With a Kiss

In the mood for a fairy tale? Sleeping beauty? Only in this case, it’s a vampire who’s sleeping. Marcus volunteers at a hospital, where he visits an unconscious man. And he talks, and talks, and talks, telling the stranger way more than he should, and the stranger hears him.

When Liam Bates volunteered to visit lonely patients at his local hospital, he expected them to be able to talk back when he chatted to them. But, when he’s assigned to visit a comatose man, he soon finds himself spilling out his whole life story in an effort to fill the silence. It’s not long before the peace and comfort he finds in the man’s hospital room becomes Liam’s refuge from an increasingly hostile world.

Vampire Marcus Corrigan has been trapped inside his paralysed body for over three years, unable to communicate with anyone. The chatty young man who visits Marcus quickly captivates him, and Liam’s softly spoken words soon have him determined to rescue the boy from his current life, but, unable to move a muscle, all Marcus can actually do is lay there and listen.

There’s only one thing that can wake up Marcus. There’s only one thing that can save Liam’s sanity. Everything is about to change for them both, and it will change with a kiss.

Amazon

Spirit Sanguine

Who’s your favourite vampire? Did I hear a Harvey Feng?? Spirit Sanguine (Sanguine 1) by Lou Harper. A vampire hunter and a vampire and some cross-dressing as a bonus. 

Is that a wooden stake in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

After putting his innate vampire hunting skills into good use in eastern Europe, Gabe is back in his hometown Chicago, feeling adrift. At least, until he has a run-in with a sexy, young vampire who seems more interested in getting into his pants than biting into his neck.

Harvey Feng is half-Chinese, all vampire, and has a tongue as sharp as his fangs. He warns Gabe to stay out of the Windy City, yet he isn’t surprised when the slayer lands back on his doorstep.

Against their better judgment, slayer and vampire succumb to their mutual attraction, but their affair attracts unexpected attention.

When Chicago’s Vampire Boss makes Gabe an offer he can’t refuse, the unlikely lovers are thrust into peril and mystery in the dark heart of the city. Together they hunt for kidnappers, a killer preying on young humans, and vicious vampire junkies.

However, dealing with murderous humans and vampires alike is easy compared to figuring out if there’s more to their relationship than hot, kinky sex.

Warning: Fangalicious man-on-man action, a troublesome twink, cross-dressing, and role-playing involving a fedora.

Release Day | Rufus the Dead

It’s release day!!! 🥳 Rufus the Dead is out today! We have a claustrophobic vampire who’s been stuck in a coffin for the last seven years. When the coven leader wants someone to form a blood bond with a psychic for reasons unknown, Rufus’ best friend volunteers Rufus.   

A blood bond lasts forever, and there is no way out of one, but Rufus is losing his mind in the coffin, so he agrees.    

Jaki, our psychic, has lived all his life in an underground facility where the warden is selling the seers’ services. He never believed he’d leave the facility alive, so when a tall, red-haired vampire in a long black coat, a frilly bloodstained shirt, and Doc Martens, tells him it’s time to go, he doesn’t know how to react.   

And the world outside is overwhelming. Especially since he finds himself in the middle of a conflict between back-stabbing vampires, power plays for the throne, and… eh… staking.   

This is the first book in the House of Horrors series. The second will be out in June, so yay! The day we’re celebrating is Kiss Your Mate Day, and it’s a traumatic past, hurt-comfort, arranged mating kind of story.   

Rufus the Dead

Rufus will do anything not to remain staked in a coffin, including stealing a psychic and forming a blood bond with him. 
 
Rufus Mabuz was a badass assassin until his coven leader had him staked and stored away in a coffin for seven years. He was still a badass assassin, only he couldn’t move. Then one day, the coven leader makes him an offer — bond with a psychic or stay in the coffin for years to come. 
 
Jaki Sage is kept prisoner together with a group of psychics. He’s a psychic too, but a crappy one. He can’t foresee anything. The only thing he can do is look back in time to see what the weather was like around a certain event. Not useful. But then his friend, who can foresee things, tells him to go with Rufus the Dead. 
 
Rufus isn’t sure why he’s stealing a psychic and forming a blood bond with him, but anything is better than being staked. Jaki might not know much about vampires, but he thinks he’s better off with Rufus than if he hadn’t run away with him. But then the coven leader demands he uses his skills to find someone, or she’ll put Rufus back in the coffin. How will Jaki be able to find anyone when all he can see is weather?

Excerpt:

Rufus glanced at Jaki as they walked through the gate of the estate. If he’d understood it correctly, he’d seen the gate from outside the door of the house. He’d seen Orla. Pain stabbed at his heart. He’d never see Orla again, and he wanted Iris to die a gruesome death if she’d been the one who’d taken her out.

“What are we to expect?” He didn’t much care, but he asked Gregory anyway.

“I have no idea. I don’t know why we had to go to the facility and grab a seer, but I guess we’ll find out.”

Jaki took half a step in Rufus’ direction. It shouldn’t please him, but it did.

“If she wanted a seer, she’ll be sorely disappointed.” Jaki grimaced.

“She can’t have you anyway. You’re mine.” Rufus grinned at him with fangs and all. Jaki was his.

They entered the big hallway. Rufus hadn’t been there since he and Gregory hurried out the door to look for attackers, but it looked the same. A little colder, but it might be his mood.

Walking toward a double door leading into what Orla had referred to as the ballroom, Rufus took Jaki’s hand. He didn’t know who he was trying to soothe, Jaki or himself. He didn’t want to be there.

Right as they reached the door, it opened from within, and Rufus stared at two vampires he hadn’t seen before dressed in black suits. He sent Gregory a questioning look which was met by pursed lips and wide eyes. New to Gregory too then.

“Rufus.” Iris sat on a throne at the far end of the huge room, dressed in a baby blue dress with lots of frills, making her look like a little girl.

“Iris.” He met her gaze without so much as nodding his head.

“How’s the fresh air treating you?” She ended the question with a huffed little laugh.

“Haven’t had much time to enjoy it yet.”

“Hmm. Where’s my seer?”

Jaki’s grip on his hand tightened, and Rufus made a show of looking around. “I didn’t know you had one.”

Snorting, Iris got to her feet. “The one you were to get me. It was the deal. Your freedom for a seer.”

Rufus struggled to keep a blank face. It wasn’t what she’d said when she came to the mausoleum to release him. She’d said he had to bond with the seer she’d booked a meeting with.

Jaki’s grip on his hand loosened, and he tried to pull away, but Rufus didn’t let him.

“You said to bond with the seer you’d set up a meeting with.”

“I did.” She chortled. “Where is she? You were meant to bring her.”

For a second, Rufus wondered if Jaki had some magic trick to make him invisible since she hadn’t once looked at him despite him standing right next to Rufus.

“This is Jaki.” He raised their linked hands. “Bonded as ordered.”

If Jaki understood what they were talking about, he didn’t show any emotion. This was not how Rufus had wanted to tell him, though he should’ve known Iris would force him to. Had he been smart, he’d broached the subject this morning before Gregory arrived. Jaki would have questions.

“He’s a man.” Anger flashed in Iris’ eyes.

“The psychic you set up a meeting with.”

She sneered. “No. They said on the phone they had a Jackie or a Kendra or something, but Kendra is a stupid name.”

Rufus said nothing. He could’ve been bonded to someone named Kendra. He was pretty sure Kendra was a woman.
