  'Thoughtful, beautiful, incredibly necessary. People need to read this book, especially if they feel a resistance to. I wish everyone would.' Sofie Hagen 
  ‘Uncompromising, anguished, combative: culture wars have victims, and this is an agonising story told with honesty and passion.’ Richard Beard 
  'An intimate, beautifully told memoir' Elinor Cleghorn 
  When my third child was born, I was told I had a boy. The baby was given a boy’s name and raised in that gender. But when she died, twenty years later, she died as my daughter, and will forever be remembered that way. 
  Alice Litman died by suicide in May 2022, aged just twenty years old, having already waited almost three years for her first appointment at a gender identity clinic. 
  In stunningly beautiful prose, Caroline Litman captures the realities of an often-messy journey navigating both her daughter’s transition and the days, weeks and months after Alice’s death. 
  Searing, urgent and utterly unique, Her Name is Alice is the raw, human story of a mother’s love and grief for her child – and of a young trans woman who is impossible to forget and who must be remembered. 
  In these memoirs of non-fiction, Litman turns autobiography into biography, charting family relationships with unflinching honesty through bereavement and death. The social stakes of lgbtq+ care and waiting are laid bare in a way that activists and studies will recognise, even as the book remains fiercely personal. 
  For fans of David Challen (The Unthinkable), Maggie Hartley (Please Help My Mummy), and Ann Cusack (The Convent).

  How far would you be willing to go to finish the job? 
  Declan Hunt is having a bad week. His kidnapping case is showing little progress, his office assistant has left him on short notice, and his latest investigation has left him literally battered and bruised. But things change when he hires twenty-four year old Charlie Watts to help out at the office. They form an unlikely partnership trying to solve two seemingly unrelated cases whose threads begin to weave together when the missing person case turns to murder. 
  The investigation takes them from the dark alleys, gay bars and bath houses of Calgary, to the richest parts of the city during the world-famous Calgary Stampede. 
  But will they be able to discover who the killer is before another life is lost? And will Declan be able to solve the mystery of his relationship with Charlie who is clearly attracted to him — especially since it is evident that the attraction is becoming mutual?

  Sequel to Serpentine Walls
  The star of the University of Virginia theater department, Aidan Emery is lusted after and admired for living out and proud. He uses his talent and good looks to his advantage and never sleeps with the same guy twice. But his glamorous patina has been carefully honed to hide the pain he carries inside. 
  Aidan wasn't always such a player. He starts college naively romantic, hungry for the attention he can't get from his workaholic father and mentally ill mother. Unfortunately, that leaves him ripe pickings for predatory professor Rodney Montgomery. Rodney's flattering regard seduces Aidan into a dysfunctional relationship that destroys his innocence. 
  Life looks up for Aidan when he finally breaks free of Rodney's pull and moves to New York City to make it as an actor. Meeting sweet fellow actor Patrick Jaymes seems like the start of a fairy tale. But before Aidan can rebuild his life into happily ever after, family secrets rip him wide open, leaving him easy prey when Rodney decides he's not willing to let Aidan go. 
  NOTE: This book contains references to mental illness, depression, suicidal ideation but not actual suicide, and emotional abuse from an unequal power dynamic.

  Three spicy MM short stories in one box set! In southern New Mexico, the resort town of Ruidoso lies nestled in the beautiful Sierra Blanca mountain range. The rugged natural landscape needs rugged men to keep wayward tourists and locals safe. They don't do it alone -- their faithful Cane Corso dogs are always at their sides. They might not think they need anybody, but outsiders, city boys, and returning high school crushes will prove them wrong.
  Contains the stories:
  Hatch: Trading the bustle of NYC for the peace of a tiny ski town is just what Dante needs. He launches into the unknown, only to have his car break down on a lonely stretch of highway. Luckily, Demon Dogs Search & Rescue member Cam Myers finds him. Outdoorsy Cam is the opposite of city-slicker Dante, but the heat between them could start a wildfire. They just need to find some common ground.
  Thunder: When the life Saul expected to lead fell apart, he found a new town and family, but he still doesn't have everything figured out. Leaving England for a new start, horse trainer Liam is delighted to find a man with dark eyes and a big dog caring for the horses. Saul might be storm clouds to Liam's sunshine, but when a real storm throws them together, they find out just how well-matched they are.
  Hugs: Gabe left town a decade ago to keep his family from killing the person he loves. After ten years in the Marines, he's back and can hardly believe it when he finds his high school sweetheart just by walking into a salon for a haircut. Martin has grown up in a decade, but he can't forget the man who shattered his heart. Fate has given them a second chance at love. Are they brave enough to take it?
