Sinossi

A New York City hustler with a special gift for reeling in customers, Apollo, 'a pale skinned mulatto with a mournful mouth' strips at a gay sex theatre in Times Square. He is one of the most seductive and disturbing creations in recent American fiction. Unflinchingly describing the lives of hustlers, pimps, drug-addicts and transsexuals in 1990s Times Square, User speaks with the authentic voice of characters from the edge. This is a world filled with stark, hypnotic eroticism and mined with terrors peculiar to the subterranean city in the hours after midnight.  A Queer Classic published in the UK and Australia for the first time. By the bestselling author of The Romanian, winner of the Prix de France.  User is unmistakably brilliant' Los Angeles Times. 'Impressive, startling and eerie...hypnotically descriptive and powerfully rhythmic' Kirkus. 'User is a stunning novel. I both love and respect it even though parts of it challenge and disturb me' Matt Bates.

    A mafia Underboss. A federal agent. A forbidden affair that could destroy them both. 
    Special Agent Baxter Flynn's master's thesis on the Morelli Family Underboss was supposed to be the start of a promising career. Instead, his fixation on the mysterious Angelo Messina is starting to blur the lines between attraction and obsession.  
    After a series of slayings in Central Park are blamed on the Morelli Family, Bax is determined to uncover the truth behind the notorious mobster's legendary reputation. But a tense late-night encounter in the Park turns into an assassination attempt on one—or maybe both—of them.  
    Forced into an uneasy alliance against a twisted killer with a deadly agenda, Bax and Angelo are drawn to each other despite everything—their age gap, their conflicting morals, and the fact that they're supposed to be enemies.  
    But with corrupt cops, old vendettas, and their own inner demons to conquer, will the path to a happily ever after be paved with blood? 
    *** 
    Enticed by the Enemy is a M/M mafia romance set in the world of the Morelli Crime Family. It can be enjoyed as a standalone, but it's even more fun to experience the series in order. Characters and events from previous books are referenced.

    Rob and the rest of the SIPS (Society for Investigative Paranormal Study) are eager to spend the holidays at the Dead End Inn, a bed and breakfast where a supernatural encounter is guaranteed. When they arrive, though, and find that the inn's proprietor, a certain former Decrypter with a professor boyfriend, has booked a second band of ghost hunters, friendly rivalry threatens to spill into outright hostility.
    To make matters worse, Rob can't stop thinking about a member of the rival group, Edward. And despite trying to stay focused on the job, it seems like fate, or perhaps the resident mischievous ghost, is determined that the two men spend time alone together in rather distracting circumstances. Will Rob be able to help the SIPS find their first proof of the paranormal, or will it be he and Edward who end up going bump in the night?

    What happens when fate intertwines shifters from land and sea? 
     
     
     
    Dr. Everett Voda loves a challenge, which is why he's spent his entire medical career traveling the world, helping shifters in remote areas. There has rarely been a problem he can't solve, but Merritt Lucas might be the exception to that rule. Everett can't figure out what's wrong with Merritt, and his attraction to the younger wolf is starting to become a distraction, especially since they are about to spend a lot of time alone together. 
     
     
     
    Merritt doesn't have much going for him. He doesn't have a pack. He doesn't have a secondary gender scent. And he's fallen hopelessly head over heels for an alpha he can't have. But that doesn't stop him from taking Everett up on his offer to see the world and experience some of the shifter cultures he has only read about. 
     
     
     
    But Everett has hidden motives for the trip, and big changes are on the horizon for Merritt and Everett, changes that will either drive them apart or bond them for life.

    Daniel Jankovic never dreamed his life with his boyfriend Tate could be so perfect. But seven years in, they live together, still love one another, and still celebrate Christmas with Tate's accepting family. While Dan doesn't miss his abusive and alcoholic family of origin, he doesn't think he misses the traditions that he once celebrated in a Czech immigrant household -- until he meets Matthew Varga.
    
    
    Matthew never stood out to Dan until he overhears him say Merry Christmas in Czech. Suddenly, all the memories Dan once suppressed of his former Christmas celebrations come back, along with a hefty crush on Matthew. They're both academics, in the same English Literature program, and both have difficult and distant families. They relate to one another on a level Dan could have never predicted.
    
    
    When Tate and Matthew meet at a Christmas party, the two also hit it off. Matthew, like Tate, grew up building things on a farm and likes to work with his hands. The always open and accepting Tate sees nothing wrong with letting Matthew stay the night on their couch, and then, eventually stay in their bed.
    
    
    But as Christmas nears, and their three-way relationship intensifies, Dan is left wondering where Matthew will fit in for Christmas -- and long afterwards.
