Synopsis

Banished from his home on the border in Agua Prieta, Sonora, by his homophobic father, Carlos embarks on a journey to find Jesse, the love of his life. At a time when homosexuality was against the law and classified as a mental disorder, he seeks through achievement the applause denied by society and the tenderness he disavows for himself.
But what happens when Carlos discovers lowering his tone and standing with legs wide apart does not protect him from homophobic rants, sexual advances of women, and men who deny their own sexuality? Camaleón is a tour de force tale of the early gender fluidity of the 60s. The colorful characters, drag queens, and trans people come from a broad spectrum of gender identities and teach the hero that the only gender rule is that there are no rules, compelling him to leave everything behind and embrace his own identity.

    Getting eaten by a wolf wasn't exactly what Red had in mind when he finally escaped the palace walls. 
    Abandoned as a babe and raised in The Queen's court, Red has always been an outsider. When he ventures towards the Dark Forest on an important quest to save his kingdom from the grips of a cruel famine, the last thing he needs is a massive grey wolf stalking him. A wolf who makes it clear that Red looks like a very tasty snack. 
    Wilhelm "Wim" Hoffmann is dangerous, infuriating, and absolutely not to be trusted—no matter how his deep voice makes Red's traitorous heart stutter. If only Wim wasn't devastatingly handsome, if only he didn't cook up such sumptuous meals and use his superior body heat to keep Red warm at night . . . Then Red might remember that wolves aren't supposed to be trusted, especially ones with secrets as dark as the forest itself. 
    But Red knows better than to fall for a wild creature's charms . . . Right? 
    Surviving these treacherous woods—where slave traders and bandits lurk around every corner—will require more than just an uneasy alliance. As their bond deepens, Red begins to wonder if being devoured by a big bad wolf might not be so bad after all . . .

    Sink your teeth into the cult classic vampire novella that inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Fear sweeps the countryside as people fall victim to a strange illness.  After a peculiar accident, beautiful Mircalla becomes a ward at Laura’s family home.  Soon, friendship blooms between the mysterious Mircalla and curious Laura.  Love is in the air, but so is something deadly.  Will Mircalla’s secret cost Laura her life? Carmilla, originally published in 1872, is one of the first vampire novels ever written, predating Dracula by twenty-six years. Carmilla, with its themes of vampirism and homosexuality, shocked the standards and stereotypes for women set in the Victorian era. Today, Carmilla is considered the original archetype of female and LGBTQ vampires, and Le Fanu’s influence is seen throughout vampire fiction.

    When my best friend, Allison, died in a car accident, I suddenly became the parent of my ten-year-old godson. How was I supposed to play football for the Portland Pirates and be a full-time single dad? Adjusting is the name of the game. But thanks to my friends, and Simon, the team doctor, we'll heal and make it through. 
     
     
     
    Did I mention he's my best friend, and I can't stop my having dirty thoughts about getting him naked? Keeping my feelings a secret isn't easy or the only obstacle I'll face.

    As my new friends like to say, I'm the hardass team doctor that lets nothing get by me. But somehow, Jackson did. While helping him adjust to his new reality, I wasn't prepared for my new feelings for him to surface. Especially when I didn't know I had them. Jackson and his godson have stolen my heart and aren't letting go. 
     
     
     
    It doesn't matter that our relationship might be considered forbidden or that he's fifteen years younger than me. I want things with him that I've never wanted with anyone else. Especially a man. Jackson and I deserve to be together no matter how rough things get. Some things are just worth it.

    Hard-boiled 1920s private detective Buck Baxter is used to solving crimes of passion, but when his latest client turns out to be his own boyfriend, Harry Hart, Buck discovers that nothing is what it seems when it comes to the mysteries of love. 
    All of Wilde City is abuzz with the unveiling of transport tycoon Howard Hart’s latest innovation, a rocket-train that promises to change the future of not only Wilde City, but the entire world. But not everyone has their mind on Hart Industries, including Harry—Howard’s son and heir to the Hart empire—who is so suspicious of his mother’s abnormal behavior that he hires his boyfriend, Buck, to investigate. 
    On the surface, the case looks like another secret love affair. But when Buck finds danger at every turn, he realizes this investigation is much deeper—and the stakes much higher—than he ever suspected. 
    From the smoke-veiled opium barge known as The Peking Empress to the opulence of the Hart family mansion—from Luigi’s garlicky gangster-run Linguine Kitchen to the secret-filled carriages of The Millennium Express—Buck’s latest case is about to teach him that love comes in many forms, all of which are wrapped in secrets, danger and a whole lot of mystery. 
    Buck Baxter and the Mysteries of Love is the third adventure in The Buck Baxter Detective Agency series. It is a campy, noir, 35k-word detective story featuring a tough and troubled leading man, a heartthrob love interest with secrets of his own and a hilarious cast of supporting characters. Enter a world of prohibition, gangsters, speakeasies, jazz clubs, star-crossed romance, brooding heroes and a mystery with a twist.
