The Summoning

Patrick Bryce Wright

Sinossi

Kohmi Sakurai loses his parents before his freshman year of college and relocates from Seattle to Kentucky to be near his only remaining relative, his half-brother Heiki, whom he barely knows. Heiki teaches at the local university and Kohmi enrolls there, despite fears about attending college in rural Kentucky as a gay Wiccan. However, Heiki is starting GASA, the Gender and Sexuality Alliance, as the faculty sponsor. Maybe Kohmi can start a new life after all: get to know his half-brother, have a supportive college experience in a community of fellow LGBTQIA+ people, fall in love, and settle down.
Even better, the gorgeous redhead from Kohmi's composition class, Morey Ives, is at the first GASA meeting. Morey's Southern manners make it difficult to tell if he's genuinely into Kohmi or if he's just that good at being nice. As if Morey wasn't amazing enough, he's also Wiccan and comes from a long line of rural Wiccans, but he isn't conceited about it, unlike the "blood witches" Kohmi met in Washington state. Kohmi is officially infatuated.
But the university president's son Keith also wants Morey and views Kohmi as an interloper. Also Wiccan, Keith intends to start a Wiccan club on campus, with or without his Catholic father's approval. When this fails to impress Morey or make an impression on Kohmi, Keith pays local dark magic pariahs to have demons scare Kohmi away.
Unfortunately, it goes wrong, and a horde of demons is unleashed on everyone in Morey's social group, including Keith's brother. Worst of all? The people who summoned the demons can't un-summon them. Kohmi, Morey, Keith, and all their Wiccan friends must set aside their differences and work together to find a way to dismiss the demons. But every day the attacks get worse. Will their magic be powerful enough, or will the demons succeed in killing them?

Hero's Heart Like Burning

Crystal Carroll

Five years before, Aeschylus dragged his battered body home after a lifetime of service in Aegina's navy. He'd hoped for a place to curl up and forget. Instead, he'd found himself the city guard's captain and in the middle of a political firefight with Aegina's rival and nearest neighbor, Athens.  
Aeschylus had stopped the municipal kidnappings and made a berth for himself. A loveless and monotonous berth. 
No one with any sense would join the guard. Young hoplites itching for glory and gold joined the Marines or were hired as mercenaries. There was always a war somewhere. Aeschylus needed a decent guardsman. Someone who understood that everyone deserved the same level of protection. 
Aeschylus knew prayer was as dangerous as poking a hydra with a stick, but he was out of options. Aeschylus asked Ares, the god of war, to send him an old hoplite weary of fighting.  
Ares sent him Thêritas of Thrace. A young soldier on a divine labor. A handsome young soldier eager to learn what he could from Aeschylus. Gods sent men on labors to punish or prepare them for a glorious death. Aeschylus told himself there was no reason to borrow sorrows that hadn't yet happened. 
Mysteries were piling up.  
It would be up to Aeschylus and his appealing young guardsman to sort the mysteries from the genuine miracles and do their best to ensure Aegina didn't go straight to Tartarus. 
Aeschylus hadn't asked for a miracle. But as a result of his prayer, he got the whole miraculous ball of wax.

Perfectly Matching Again - A...

Milena McKay

The life of a Muse is hard. There are so many rules. 
 
 
 
Rule Number 1: Don't get tipsy in Vegas and have a one night stand with the Goddess of Harvest. 
 
 
 
Rule Number 2: Whatever happens in Vegas, don't let Hera interfere. 
 
 
 
Rule Number 3: When Hera inevitably interferes and ties you to Demeter for all eternity (or until she restarts spring on Earth), try not to fall in love. 
 
 
 
When the most popular (and devastatingly beautiful, everybody says so) Muse breaks the centuries old rule and gets entangled with the Goddess of Harvest, the entire Olympus is in upheaval. What happens when Hera steps in to resolve the conundrum only to bring about the most adored trope of them all, forced proximity? Will Demeter surrender to the irresistible Muse? And will Erato finally see herself as more than Aphrodite's sidekick? 
 
 
 
The Cupids & Goddesses are back! Sabine, Abby, and Aphrodite are bringing with them a steamy and highly trope'y third installment in the Perfect Match series, filled to the brim with intrigue-weaving immortals, spring festivals, charming rogues and a grand gesture for the ages! 
 
 
 
Contains mature themes.

Amateur Witch's Guide to Murder...

K. Valentin

A wannabe witch tries to break a curse on a clueless client in this laugh-out-loud debut, for fans of queer romantic fantasy by T. J. Klune and Tamsyn Muir. 
 
Mateo Borrero has 99 problems—and all of them hinge on his missing bruja mother and the demon she trapped inside his body. 
 
Mateo's mother forbade him from ever using magic, but now that she’s gone, magic’s his only marketable skill, and he’d really like an exorcism—which costs money he doesn’t have. What’s the harm in making a quick buck by calling himself an Occult Specialist and chanting a few half-remembered spells in his crappy Spanish? 
 
Enter Topher, a naive nepo baby with a curse that keeps killing people around him. Most importantly, he’s rich and too clueless to clock that Mateo—and his (absolutely-not-the-assistant) astral-projecting best friend Ophelia—have never actually had a client before. Lifting Topher’s bad luck curse should be simple, but as luck would have it, nothing is simple, and Topher–who Mateo sort of, kind of likes–might be at the center of a deadly magical conspiracy. 
 
To make matters worse, the more magic Mateo does, the stronger the demon inside him grows and the more he wants to eat people. But would caving to the urges of an ancient evil really be that bad if it helps him get a payday? 
 
Legends and Lattes meets A Grim Reaper’s Guide to Catching a Killer in this hilarious and charming queer romantic fantasy readers won’t want to miss.

Mother Night - Poems

Serge ♆ Neptune

Mother Night is a hallucinogenic journey across a city with too many alleyways and across a life surviving childhood sexual assault. Forming a nocturnal séance, Serge ♆ Neptune resurrects abusive old lovers and ghosts of the queers of the past – conjures men in cars and men in bedrooms – providing them invitation and shelter, or casting them to stormy waves.
In a book of many types of darkness – across poems of vulnerability and harm – what persists in Mother Night is its celebration of resilience, what shines brightest is the many ways it reaches for the light.
