A haunting Christmas tale.
Christmas of 1899, the world looks forward to new discoveries, new inventions,
and a new century. Wealthy heiress Viola Peery is looking forward to
a new life and a husband, preferably one with a title, since her
father has told her not to return from England without one.

A New Year’s weekend at Aescton Hall holds promise for Viola and
eight other ladies of wealth. There, ten eligible bachelors will vie
for their hearts and hands during dinners, skating parties, and—of
course—balls. Both the charming Cedric Stanhope and the dashing
Rhys Findlay catch Viola’s eye and pique her interest, and through
flirty tea parties and nightly waltzes, she mulls her decision.
But one of the men holds a secret that will change her destiny and haunt
her for the rest of her life.
D.S. Dehel is a lover
of photography, good food, and the Oxford comma. When she is not
immersed in a book, she is mom to her kids and spoiling her rather
pampered feline, Mr. Darcy. She can also be found at the gym training
for her next Spartan race and generally avoiding all adult
responsibility. She adores literary allusions, writing sex scenes,
and British television. Her devoted husband is still convinced she
writes children’s books. Please don’t enlighten him.

Christmas Swan
The Twelve Days of Christmas #7
by Catherine Lievens
Genre: M/M Paranormal Romance
Print Length: 67 pages
Publisher: eXtasy Books
Publication Date: December 13, 2019 
 
Naked and unconscious probably isn’t the best way to meet your mate for
the first time.
Curtis didn’t expect to meet his mate while he was face-first and naked in
the snow. He supposed he hadn’t exactly met Manuel that way since
he’d been unconscious, but that was probably not the best first
impression.
Manuel wasn’t sure what to do with the naked, gorgeous man, but he took
him home—and Curtis ran away.
But now small gifts have started appearing on Manuel’s doorstep, and he
knows they’re from Curtis. With Christmas looming so close and
Manuel’s mood being so dark because of his mother’s recent death,
he’s not sure what to do about it—or about Curtis. Curtis seems
to be intent on gently pushing his way into Manuel’s life, though,
and Manuel doesn’t exactly mind.
 
 
 
Catherine is the creator of several series, most of them paranormal, including
the Whitedell Pride Series and the Gillham Pack Series. While she
graduated in translation, she decided to go the writer’s way
because it was more fun to create her own stories and characters.
She’s been living in Italy for more than twenty years, but she’s a
daughter of the North—Belgium to be precise—and she misses it so
much that she’s already planning to move back.

She loves pizza—probably too much —her pets, and of course, books.
She sneaks some reading time in her schedule every time she has five
minutes free from writing, demands from her various pets and son, and
lastly, housework.

Print Length: 47 pages
Publisher: eXtasy Books
Publication Date: December 13, 2019
 
When a young man’s wishes impact his partner’s plans, he must think
creatively to find a compromise.
Devon Gateman has been in a partnership with his much younger lover, Jake
Lewis, for almost three years. Christmas is approaching, and he wants
to make it special. He brings home a live goose, intending to prepare
an uber special Christmas Eve supper. Using a little spicy
persuasion, Devon convinces his lover to accept the animal…for a
few days, anyway.
At first, Jake is flattered that Devon brought home a goose. He knows
his man has the best of intentions. Unfortunately, caring for the
animal for a week falls on him. During that time, Jake actually comes
to care for the honking, ankle-biting, guard-goose-terrier of a bird.
Then events happen that make Jake realize he can’t break the trust of
his weird new friend. Can he come up with an alternative for dinner
that will be just as special?

of her new Oregon home on horseback, 4-wheeler, or motorcycle.

A Calling Bird
The Twelve Days of Christmas #4
by Jo Tannah
Genre: M/M Paranormal Romance
Print Length: 78 pages
Publisher: eXtasy Books
Publication Date: December 6, 2019 
 
 
Would serenading be enough to convince a mate they were meant to be?
Cole Burns doesn’t suffer the cold or feeling the holiday spirit, but
dreams of having a family by thirty, preferably with two or three
children, are slowly fading into the fog of winter. It’s a sad, sad
situation he cannot seem to escape.

For John Michael Diamond,
being CEO of Diamond Corporation equates to never finding the perfect
mate to share his nest. In fact, it’s next to impossible. Through a
twist of fate, he discovers his mate not only lives nearby but also
on his family’s estate.
Cole never thought he’d fall for
such a crazy, insanely gorgeous rich guy, and yet here he was,
wrapped in shifter eagle who serenades him with love songs. This was
going to be an interesting Christmas.
 
 
I grew up listening to folk tales my father and nannies told either to
entertain us children or to send home a message. These narratives I
kept with me and finally, I wrote them down in a journal way back
when I kept one. Going through junk led to a long forgotten box and
in it was the journal. Reading the stories of romance, science
fiction and horror I had taken time to put to paper, brought to light
that these were tales I never met in my readings.
The tales I write are fictional but all of them are based on what I grew
up with and still dream about. That they have an M/M twist is simply
for my pleasure. And I hope, yours as well.

Print Length: 84 pages
Publisher: eXtasy Books

A restaurant owner who can’t cook meets a chef who just happens to be
a vampire. Can they each overcome their shameful past and find a
recipe for redemption?
Doss Chambers always dreamed of owning a restaurant, but a car crash when
he was seventeen put those plans on hold. He’s paid for his
mistake, in legal terms, but the guilt he carries weighs heavily on
his mind. Nevertheless, Doss is determined to fulfill his dream. He
works hard at his family’s market to save whatever money he can and
spends every spare minute learning the business of running a
restaurant. If only he could cook…

Henri Courtan is the best
pastry chef in Paris. Some say it’s an odd choice of profession for
a vampire, but after years of self-imposed exile to atone for his
violent past, Henri is finally happy to settle down and live his life
in peace. When dark secrets come back to haunt him, however, he flees
to New York. A progressive clan of vampires take him in, and Henri
suddenly finds himself charge of feeding dozens of vampires
accustomed to eating human food. He’s glad to be cooking again,
keeping busy, until a man arrives with a delivery. When Henri opens
the door, he quickly realizes that his man might offer much more than
groceries.
Neither man is sure of the other’s feelings,
until a shared culinary experience reveals a physical hunger that can
no longer be ignored. The flames of passion are lit, but both men
need to forgive themselves before they can share their hearts.
 
 
Kazy Reed grew up on
a small island off the Maine coast. At the age of sixteen, she
announced to her parents that she was going to move to Denmark for
six months as an exchange student. That trip changed her life, and
sparked her love of travel, languages, and art history.
After graduating from college with a degree in Art History, she moved back to the
island where she began to write short stories. When she was
introduced to gay erotic fiction, the seed was planted and she never
looked back. Kazy now lives near the coast of Maine, with her very
understanding husband and two ridiculously precocious children.

Synopsis

Abbey Gray, a NYT bestselling suspense author, is burned out. She needs time away from the madness of deadlines and personal appearances as well as her big city life in New York. Returning to her small hometown in Montana to hide herself away, she attempts to dive into her next novel. Abbey hopes the solitude will kickstart her muse but a murder next door gets in the way. The murder stirs painful memories from the past of another murder–Abbey’s mother. Can the eerily similar details of her neighbor’s murder help Abbey remember the truth about the past before she becomes the next victim? With the storm charging toward her hometown, there is no escaping what’s coming.

Sheriff Garrett Gilmore has known Abbey and her family his entire life. In truth, he’s probably been waiting for her to come back, knowing it likely wouldn’t happen or maybe he just has commitment issues. He can’t worry about that at the moment, he has a homicide to solve and a murderer to catch, all with the storm of the century bearing down on Montana. Survival is all that matters.

Read an Excerpt

Standing in the middle of a homicide scene was the last thing Sheriff Garrett Gilmore wanted to be doing on a Sunday morning—any morning, for that matter. Yet, here he was.

Garrett surveyed the backyard where Dottie Hansen lay prone on the cold ground not a half dozen yards from her back door. Dark crimson stained her ruffled pink dress. Strangely it didn’t appear to have run down the sides and puddled on the snow beneath her. Maybe there was more under the body, but he’d have to wait until the coroner arrived to check it out. Her bare feet were blue, as much from the fact that blood no longer flowed freely through her veins as the freezing temperature. He shook his head. Who the hell would do something like this to a woman closer to seventy than sixty? Dottie had lived in Park County her whole life. She baked for the church fundraisers. Taught elementary school for nearly four decades before retiring.

It didn’t make one lick of sense.

Two crime scene techs took photos and documented the scene. Evidence would be collected. The coroner was on his way. Three of Garrett’s deputies were searching the yard and the tree line, while two others scoured the house. So far they’d found no reason to suspect anything had been taken from inside the house—not even the cash in Mrs. Hansen’s handbag was missing—which left them without a clear motive for this brutal act.
