Facing the Curse

Patrick Bryce Wright

Synopsis

As a Wiccan, Tito Russell is a firm believer in magic -- just not the fairytale, happily-ever-after kind. He and Matt have been dating for years, they've met each other's families, and everyone seems to agree Matt is "good enough." Despite ongoing problems with Matt's jealous and possessive tendencies, they move into an apartment together in a new town. Tito finds a job as a clerk at a used bookstore. Everything is working out.
Then the local Wiccan circle, which is hosting a workshop, accepts Tito's RSVP but not Matt's. Despite Matt's jealous whining, Tito refuses to give up his shot at joining a circle and making friends in their new town. When Tito shows up at the house where the circle is holding their meeting, he discovers his sexy upstairs neighbor from the apartment complex, Leo, is a member. As soon as they shake hands, magical sparks fly. Tito and Leo both feel it. During the barbeque after the workshop, Leo seeks out Tito, and they talk for hours. Leo is everything Matt isn't: outgoing, deep, and kind.
The problem is that Matt knows it, too, and for once his jealous paranoia that Tito is attracted to another guy is on target. Despite Tito's being loyal and refusing to become more than friends with Leo, Matt unleashes his full rage, ripping off the mask of the lovable nerd and becoming a rageful abuser.
As soon as Leo sees the bruises, he convinces Tito to take a stand and dump Matt. But with Matt's behavior getting progressively more unhinged, where will it end? With Leo and Tito getting together, or with both of them dead at Matt's hands?

The Silent Mountain Man

Casey Cox

Nearly getting killed in a mudslide only reminds me why I hate the mountains. I'm uninjured, but my car is wrecked, there's no way I can get into town, and there's no reception here. 
 
 
 
Maybe it's karma for putting this trip off. I haven't been able to bring myself to visit since Pa's funeral. And then there are the painful memories that still haunt me of my first love and heartbreak. 
 
 
 
The summer I turned eighteen, I exchanged letters with a free-spirited, long-haired boy who lived down the road. It was the best time of my life. But now I'm all alone. 
 
 
 
And then, just as I'm about to give up hope, a pickup truck pulls up. A man steps out. Big muscles, a thick beard, and an intense stare that's making me rethink my dislike of the mountains. 
 
 
 
Harrick offers me a place to stay, and despite being a total stranger, there's something familiar about him. Also, what other choice have I got? He takes me back to his cabin. 
 
 
 
I almost forget that I'm here to sell my father's house and finally move on from the guy who left me brokenhearted all those years ago. And then I find a letter in Harrick's house—one of the letters I wrote—and everything changes. 
 
 
 
Contains mature themes.

Hurricane - An MM Omegaverse...

Laura Taylor

Lieutenant Azure Lynwood has worked hard to earn his place in the Space Corps, overcoming centuries of bias and discrimination against omegas. Traveling across the solar system and exploring new worlds comes with its share of complications, but Azure has proven himself a worthy member of his team, and he’s ready for anything the solar system can throw at him.

Or, at least, he thinks so, until a supposedly routine mission goes awry. An inspection of a remote outpost on Titan turns into a murder investigation, then a blizzard traps Azure and his crew inside the base, cut off from any contact with civilisation, and finally, without access to his supply of hormonal suppressants, Azure realises he has only a couple of hours until he goes into heat.

But just when Azure thinks his situation can’t get any worse, he finds out one last, staggering piece of news. Major Tor Savan, his commanding officer and one of the most respected men in the Space Corps, is an alpha.

Refusing to be mated means enduring twelve hours of the worst pain imaginable. But allowing Tor to mate him is unthinkable. Alphas in rut are notoriously violent and aggressive, and if anyone ever found out about the illicit encounter, Azure’s career would be over. Can he really trust Tor’s assurances that he has both the skills and the discretion to see Azure through his heat unharmed?

Tor and Azure's story continues in Deluge and Lava. Books are best read in order.
