Grendel Rising

Gordon Phillips

Sinopse

Grendel is a troll who comes up from the world below to find love. But the passage is hard, and it's only with the aid of a human named Ken that Grendel survives. Ken, a successful, thirty-ish software engineer, lives peacefully in the suburbs with his dog Jake. Though six feet tall, Ken has always secretly dreamed of meeting a man bigger than himself. In Grendel he finds this desire met in spectacular fashion.
Grendel is attracted to Ken too, but before the pair have time to explore their feelings, an agent from the Federal Bureau of Geostasis arrives. He tells Ken the FBG have detected Grendel's passage, which is a breach of security. They want to take Grendel into custody and send him to work in the mines. Ken defies the agent even though he knows it will lead to trouble. If Ken and Grendel are to have any possibility of staying together, they must find some way to elude these government forces. 
A whole new world is opening up for Ken, who always viewed himself as a law-abiding person. He feels helpless, but Grendel has some ideas about how to elude the FBG and stay together.

Sigma's Holiday

Blake R. Wolfe

A brother I never knew. A town I wasn’t ready for. And a Christmas love that could ruin everything.
I wasn’t supposed to be in Marquette.
But after my mother died, I found a box of letters in her attic—dozens of them, all from the same man. Dave. My biological father. Turns out my mom had a whole secret life before me, complete with pack politics, scandal, and a lover she left before she gave birth to me. And now I find out I’ve got a half-brother named Chance and a town full of shifters who see me as an outsider.
Then I met Danny.
He runs a local Christmas tree lot and smells like pine, earth, and cinnamon coffee. He’s kind in a way I’ve never known, rough around the edges, and fiercely loyal to the land he calls home. I didn’t mean to fall for him. I just wanted to find some connection, to understand where I came from. But the closer we get, the harder it is to ignore the truth.
Because I’m not just here to meet my family.
I work for a strip mining company. And when I tested one of Danny’s Christmas trees to confirm what the reports said... I found exactly what I feared. The soil under his lot is rich with copper. My company wants it all. And Danny's tree lot is on the brink of foreclosure.
Now I have a choice. Either I tell him who I am and break his heart… or stay quiet and betray everything that’s starting to feel like home.
Sigma's Holiday is a heartwarming, spicy gay werewolf holiday romance about found family, forbidden truths, and the kind of love that only comes once—and changes everything when it does.

My secrets found me. The tips of my fingers trembled, aching and begging to slice all the memories out of my body. My heart sank behind a metal cage, closing itself off from the world. And through it all, Officer Blake—the same officer who questioned me the night of the attack—just wouldn't leave me alone.Emerson Blake
