*kermit flail* YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY

Okay, now that I’ve got your attention!

I realized that my blogging time at the beginning of the month got pretty booked!  I’m at Amy’s Lane on the second Tuesday, and at Sid Love’s on the third, and, well, who’s going to write my blog.

So I asked for some help from my friends.  I opened my blog up, on the first Monday of the month, to anyone who has a new release or one coming for this next month.  Now, I told the truth.  I told them that I was not so much with the editing, and that I had an eclectic readership of people who liked a family blog and knitting, and romance, and, well, they were still crazy… uhm, enthusiastic about the idea, so here we are!  Let’s hear it for my fellow authors, who ALL have something coming out this next month.  I mean, it’s the month of love, right?

 So, let’s start with The Big Bone Lick Pack, since it was the first to come up!

Bad Wolf & Devil Dog by Kendall McKenna
Big, Bad Bear by Jambrea Jo Jones
Shifty Fox Shenanigans by Cherie Noel

Welcome to the Big Bone Lick Pack: A more friendly and hospitable group
of werewolves you’ll never meet! Visit with; ‘Devil Dog & Bad Wolf’, a ‘Big
Bad Bear’ and enjoy some ‘Shifty Fox Shenanigans’. Watch yourself, ’round the

Next is 6 Days to Valentine by L.E. Franks! 

In Nick’s perfect world, Valentine’s Day would be struck
from the calendar.
Nick’s dreams of a Happily Ever After were shredded long ago
and the last thing he and his customers need is a bunch of happy loving couples
rubbing it in their faces.
Bouncer Fat Boy Newman is willing to bet he knows Nick’s
heart better than he does. He has just six days to change Nick’s mind about
romance and the holiday and the perfect man to do it.
Too bad it’s not him.
Too bad Nick’s not going down without a fight.
Too bad he cheats.

But if you want something a little more serious, (and with leather on the cover!) we can depend upon J.p. Barnaby.  Here we have In the Absence of Monsters. 

 Jayden Carter knew the path he wanted his life to take. He wanted to get his Master’s Degree in History and teach. But, when he answered an ad for a roommate and met mysterious doctor, Ethan Bryant, he’s brought into a world he never knew existed and his path changes. 

It changes again for Jayden and he leaves Ethan with their friend, Lexi, in tow. Ethan loses himself in a haze of self-destruction and pain. With the help of a childhood friend, Gabriel, Ethan battles the demons of his childhood and finds a way to survive. Gabriel and Jayden wage an epic war for Ethan, but in the end, they may all end up losing.

 And we cannot possibly forget the inimitable man with a plan, Vicktor Alexander!


Ronny Parker has always been aware that there was more to life outside of his Harlem apartment. When he goes to work one morning at Starbucks, he finds himself coming face to face with a reality that he was not prepared for. He finds himself the eyewitness to a fight between two shifters, a wolf and a lion, one of which bites Ronny and calls him “mate.” When Ronny wakes up the next morning he finds himself thrust into a world neither his family, nor his teachers ever taught him about and he does the only thing he can do. He starts to investigate.

Cole Tronk has been taught from an early age that he is never to mate a human, never reveal his true nature to a human and that he cannot be gay. But when he gets into a fight with his oldest friend outside of a Starbucks and finds himself smelling the most intoxicating scent ever, he throws all of those rules out of the window. Before long, Cole and his mate, Ronny are on the run from the governing body of the paranormals, humans who have now discovered that paranormals, magicks and supernaturals exist, and someone from Ronny’s past who is determined to kill them both.

Along the way, Cole and Ronny meet up with a group of paranormals, magicks, and supernaturals who are also gay, and who are researching the true history of the world and creation. What they find will not only change their lives, but the entire world and the future. Will Ronny and Cole’s mating survive all of these obstacles and when a millennias old lie comes back to bite them in the ass, will Ronny and Cole be able to deal with the consequences?

And I wasn’t going to do this, because I sort of pimp my own ride as it is, but then I realized, hell, I actually have a book out in February, and it would be sort of silly not to put it out there one more time.

So here’s the blurb and the buy link for Shiny! which is out on February 21st. I will, of course, do a “Where did that come from?” post when I get close to the date, but for now, I so hope you enjoy.

Description:
Will Lafferty and Kenny Scalia are both having sort of a day. Will gets fired for letting fifth graders read Harry Potter, and Kenny finds his boyfriend and his sex toys in bed with a complete stranger. When Will knocks over Kenny’s trash can—and strews Kenny’s personal business all over the street—it feels like the perfect craptastic climax to the sewage of suckage that has rained down on them both.

But ever-friendly, ever-kind Will asks snarky Kenny out for a beer—God knows they both need one—and two amazing things occur: Kenny discovers talking to Will might be the best form of intercourse ever, and Will discovers he’s gay.

Their unlikely friendship seems like the perfect platonic match until Will reveals how very much more he’s been feeling for Kenny almost since the beginning. But Kenny’s worried. Will’s new-found sexuality is bright and glittery and shiny, but what happens when that wears off? Is Will’s infatuation with Kenny strong enough to stay real?
