I've written a 6000 word Christmas short story that will be offered for free as part of the Rainbow Advent Calendar. The calendar has free fiction by a variety of authors, one story available each day of December. My story will be out Dec 14th. You can follow the stories on the Facebook group page here.
If you can't wait, my 2017 Christmas novella, "Desperately Seeking Santa" is available right now on KU here.
I'm very happy to announce that two of my books placed in the 2017 Rainbow Awards. "Falling Down" was runner-up in the "Best Gay Book" and "Best Gay Contemporary Romance" categories. And "How to Save a Life" was a 3rd place winner in the "Best Gay Paranormal Romance" category. Many thanks to Elisa, who puts so much work into these awards and raises a lot of donations for LGBT charities. You are an angel. CLICK HERE to visit the Rainbow Awards and see all the winners.

I have an INTERVIEW & GIVEAWAY up on Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words for the "Desperately Seeking Santa" blog tour. Pop over to enter!
It's release day for "Desperately Seeking Santa", my Christmas story for 2017. This year's story grew longer than I intended. It's a short novel at 52K words. I loved writing about Mack, a 6'10", 285 college wrestler. He a shy and guarded man. The protagonist of the story, Gabe, is a journalism student who falls for Mack after seeing him wrestle, never suspecting Mack might be gay or that a friend might set them up on a date.
Meanwhile, Gabe is trying to summon up his spirit of Christmas to write an article about an Elks charity dinner for a local children's home, and to uncover the truth about their mystery Santa.
The story features Jordan and Owen from "Superhero" as side characters but can be read as a stand-alone.
You can read more about "Desperately Seeking Santa", including the first chapter, here.
Here's the link to Amazon. The book is on KU and the purchase price is $3.99.

Today is the cover reveal for "Tender Mercies". It's the second book in the Men of Lancaster County series (the first was "A Second Harvest"). This is a stand-alone book with a new couple, though it is set in the same area and features a cameo of David and Christie from book #1. :-) "Tender Mercies" features a young Amish man kicked out of his community for being gay and a man from New York who moves to Lancaster County to start a farm sanctuary.
