  Artemas, known as the academic son of Poseidon, spent much of his time trying to work out how the Fates decided who was to be mated to whom. With the fall of his brothers, his father, and others in their close circle, he was worried he'd be next in line and the last thing he wanted or needed was a mate. But his uncle Zeus pulled him away from his studies with a special project for him - the retrieval of a book from an auction. A very special book by all accounts; the only known written record from the god Silvanus, one of the originals who hadn't been heard from for decades. Unable to resist a good book mystery, Artemas agrees to leave Poseidon's library long enough to bid on it.  
  Silvanus had spent fifty years in deep despair over what was happening to the world. He'd been alone since the beginning of time, and when his depression reached breaking point, he pleads with the Fates to remove him from the tapestry of life. Telling him it was impossible, the Fates agreed to a promise instead. Silvanus would find his mate and the love his heart hoped for. Seeking to regain his book, after it'd been sold at an auction, Silvanus lands in a hotel room, meeting his fated promise face-to-face. Unfortunately, their first meeting was not the romantic event Silvanus had hoped for.  
  It's soon clear Artemas's emotional baggage wasn't the only threat to their possible mating. A meddling god is on the loose, and when Odin and Loki are ruled out as possible suspects, only one other god comes to mind. Throw in the fact that Thor was due to give birth any minute, and Artemas and Silvanus have to work together in more ways than one. Will Silvanus ever get the time to heal the pain in Artemas's heart, or will the meddling god take everything they have and more? 
  This is an MM true mates story, based on ancient gods. MPREG elements are not the main focus of this story, but a cursing Thor does give birth within these pages.

  A gay South African endures military conscription during the Angola Bush War in this autobiographical novel of persecution and hope— An “electrifying debut” (Shelf Awareness). 
   
  Nicholas van der Swart always knew he was different, but to avoid the violent punishments that come with being gay in Apartheid South Africa, he has carefully kept his true self a secret. By the standards of his brutal father and the machismo culture of Afrikaners, “moffies” like him deserve nothing but scorn.  
   
  Then, at nineteen years old, Nicholas is drafted into the South African army. He soon finds himself caught in a world entirely at odds with his identity, forced to fight for a cause he doesn’t believe in. Here, he will face the hatred and violence of his tormenters, but will also experience his first glimmers of love, and finally find the strength to survive. 
   
  A long overdue account of Apartheid South Africa’s criminalization of homosexuality, André Carl van der Merwe’s acclaimed debut novel is the basis for the critically acclaimed film Moffie, directed by Oliver Hermanus.

  At 31, William is happy, kind of. He has an apartment, and a job teaching at the local college. He also has a bad habit of cruising on dating apps when he’s lonely and bored, and a dead-end crush on Tyler, who has been out of sight and out of mind, off with his girlfriend in Australia. 
  But Tyler’s about to move back into his life, in a big way. In a moment of generosity, William offers Tyler a place to crash after a break-up. Tyler’s back in town, licking his wounds, just as kind and clever as William remembered, although now he also hangs out shirtless in William’s living room. 
  How will he handle the tension and frustration of living a few feet from his crush, trying to juggle keeping on top of his grading and keeping his sanity? How much longer can he keep insisting that he’s happy to live a life of the mind and ignore the incredible body doing yoga in his lounge? Tyler cooking him dinner every night is just being a good houseguest, or is he trying to be teacher’s pet? 
  What happens if your first coming-of-age stalled? How young is too young for a mid-life crisis? Can you do both at once? William is about to find out.

  I'm a one-and-done kind of hellhound . . . I don't catch feeeeeeeelings . . . Once upon a time, my first and last relationship taught me that romantic love isn't enough to stop your boyfriend from trying to kill you. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. My awesomeness is now strictly reserved for one-nighters and casual hookups. Besides, things are heating up at the Community of Species Government, and I'm right in the thick of it all. Those bad guys are going down—and not in the good way. They might seem to have the drop on us right now, but we're going to turn the tables on them. Even if it means going on a mission with Aidan Byrne.I'm still not happy about the way Aidan handled things with my bestest bestie a few months back, even if he did turn out to be right. Plus, there's something about him that rubs my fur in the wrong direction. He's the kind of guy who thinks karaoke is only for college kids and looks down on me for licking my own balls. He also thinks that just because he's the species leader, he's in charge.Too bad for him, I've never backed away from a challenge . . . even if it is unnervingly sexy and really bendy. A hookup won't lead to feelings . . . right?
