Rhuyin, by Mellanie Rourke

Rhuyin is a Soma, a shapeshifter created by the gods with one purpose: find his Mageian partner and Bond with them to protect them with his life. The problem is, no Mageian wants to bond with a Soma with a disability: Rhuyin is mostly deaf. He struggles with self-doubt in a society that expects perfection from its Somas. After being forced to remain on the sidelines while others search for their matches, he joins Omada, a suicide squad of Somas who have given up hope of finding their mates. He just can’t shake the face of the man with eyes like the deep blue sea and the heart of a warrior. When fate draws them back together, Rhuyin begins to think hope may not be lost after all.

Luke was born Lucien Alexus, Prince of Alexandria, but when his Mageian powers manifested he was disinherited and condemned to a life of slavery in the country’s infamous Legion. He, along with a contingent of Alexandria Mageians, has escaped to the country of Illyria, where they hope to build new lives in a free society. But Luke is struggling with the burdens of leadership: so many people look to him to help save them, protect them, lead them, and the Somas all look to him with the desperate hope that he will somehow solve the massive imbalance of Soma to Mageia ratio. The pressure is overwhelming. How can he save them when he can’t even save himself?

Then a young Soma who sparkling green eyes walks into his life…and into his heart. Together they can either save the Legionnaires enslaved in Alexandria…or doom them all.

Something Unbelievable, by Rory Maxwell

JAMIE CABOT thought this adulting stuff would be a lot easier. He’s got a job—well, two, really—and his very own apartment. Not needing to share a bedroom with his brothers anymore might be the best part. Life is good. So why does it feel so overwhelming? Like every time he turns around, he’s faced with another disaster that he has no idea how to fix. Luckily, his landlord is super helpful—and also super hot. If only Jamie wasn’t just as bad at flirting as he is at adulting.

CHRISTIAN HALE has always been good with his hands. After making a lifestyle change, he needed a project. Buying and renovating an outdated apartment building seemed like a great idea. In reality, he’s spending more time fixing the stuff his disaster-prone tenant breaks than he is on his to-do list. Chris would be irritated—except the boy is too damn adorable to get upset with. He’d rather give Jamie a hug and tell him not to worry—Daddy will take care of everything. But hitting on his tenant would be crossing a line, right?

Something Unbelievable is a novella in the Split Rock Ranch universe. It has a disaster twink with a competence kink, a super hot Daddy who’s great at ignoring the obvious, an age gap, Daddy-kink without age play, and a few glimpses of familiar faces. It’s written as an introduction to the Split Rock Ranch series and can be read as a stand-alone.

Awfully Ambrose, by Lisa Henry and Sarah Honey

Bad Boyfriends, Inc—When you can’t find a good boyfriend, why not hire a bad one instead?

Ambrose Newman is a bad boyfriend. Professionally. If someone’s parents don’t approve of that long-haired unemployed bass player they want to date, that’s where Ambrose comes in. For a few hundred dollars a night, he’ll go to dinner with a client and their parents and show them that the grass is definitely not greener on his side of the fence. It’s dead. When Ambrose brings a date to a fancy restaurant, it isn’t sparks that fly—it’s glassware.

After his last boyfriend turned out to be a cheat, Liam Connelly has no interest in dating again, but his parents are determined to see him paired off. When they come to visit, he hires Ambrose to act as his boyfriend. If Ambrose can be a bad boyfriend, he can be a tolerable one too, right? But Ambrose plays the part too well and scores an invitation to spend the Easter weekend with the Connolly family at their winery, and Liam finds himself developing real affection for his fake boyfriend.

But does Ambrose return those feelings, or is it all an act?

Best Supporting Actor, by Joanna Chambers and Sally Malcolm

Narrated by Simon Goldhill

Lights, camera…attraction!

When Tag O’Rourke, struggling actor-slash-barista, meets Jay Warren, son of acting royalty, it’s loathing at first sight. Loathing…and lust.

Tag’s dream is to act, but it’s a dream that’s crumbling beneath the weight of student debt and his family’s financial problems. If his career doesn’t take off soon, he’s going to have to get a real job. After all, feeding his family is more important than feeding his soul.

Luckily, Tag’s about to get his big break…

Jay never had to dream about acting; he was always destined to follow in his famous mother’s footsteps. But fame has its price and a traumatic experience early in Jay’s career has left him with paralyzing stage fright, which is why he sticks to the safety of TV work—and avoids relationships with co-stars at all costs.

Unfortunately, Jay’s safe world is about to be rocked…

After an ill-judged yet mind-blowing night together, Jay and Tag part acrimoniously. So it’s a nasty shock when they discover that they’ve been cast in a two-man play that could launch Tag’s career and finally get Jay back onto the stage where he belongs.

Sure, it’s not ideal, but how bad can working with your arch-nemesis be?

All they have to do is survive six weeks rehearsing together and navigate a cast of smarmy festival directors, terrible landladies, and vengeful journalists. Oh, and try not to fall in love before the curtain rises…

Break a leg!

Wishes and Research, by MA Innes

Paxton
Bugs. Well, beetles, but it doesn’t matter because they keep disappearing. Poof. Insects, bugs, or just creepy crawlies, Paxton doesn’t care what they’re called because they’re the most fascinating creatures he’s ever seen, and as an entomologist, that’s saying a lot. But since he’s currently in the most frustrating town he’s ever seen, there might be a connection.

Fraser
Bugs. Fraser is fascinated by the adorable bug doctor who’s running around town digging in the dirt and playing with bugs. He also agrees with the rest of the nuts in town that Paxton has to be a little. But there’s one big question on everyone’s mind. Does Paxton know he’s not as vanilla as he seems to think he is?

When the bugs are vanishing and the locals are perplexing, falling in love just might be the easiest part of Paxton’s magical discoveries.

The Definition of Love, by Hinsel Meyer

Bennett

Being a single father means I have to live in reality and Lizzie needs me to be a rock-steady presence that won’t waver when she does, but when I come face to face with the man I spent days avoiding a year ago when we first met, and he doesn’t recognize me, it stings.
Luke Riggs might be as handsome as I remember, he might still be the star football player with as many trophies as my friends, but when he tracks me down to apologize for not remembering me, I realize that there’s so much more to learn about the guy that leaves me speechless just from the sight of him.
I gave up on romantic love years ago though, and that’s not an easy habit to break. In my experience, being asexual means being a romance repeller.
Could Luke be the one to make me feel safe again?

Luke

The last thing I expect to find when I arrive at my boss’ house, is to be met with the sight of an angel gazing down at me. To say Bennett meets me at a disadvantage is the understatement of the century. The man’s impressive in all the ways that count, and even though right now—when half of our fans are begging Gab to fire me, and the other half are begging me to do better—is possibly the worst time ever to date him, that’s what I want.
It’s also something I won’t let myself have, not until I’ve gotten my football shit together.
But then fate, the universe, God, whatever you want to call it, intervenes, and suddenly, I need Bennett and Lizzie in my life, and once I’m in with them, I’m all in, and there’s nothing I won’t do to become part of their family and to protect them.
With both our lives changing drastically, is it possible we can still build something strong and ride out the storm together?

Static/Cling, by Jaime Samms

Best friends Bjorn and Leif help each other out. Whether it’s blowing off some steam in bed (as friends do), or helping each other find a new job, they’ve always been there for eachother. So when Leif points out an ad for a janitor team at SPAM it’s a perfect fit.

Bjorn will be able to work where his strange ability to gather static electricity won’t be a problem, and Leif will still be by his side to make sure nothing bad happens.

Turns out, Bjorn should have read the fine print.

Working at SPAM is like no other job they’ve ever had, and then there is Kassian. Tacitern. Unfriendly. Half computer geek, half muscle-head, he’s way more appealing than he has any right to be, and maybe the spark between them they’ve often looked for but never found.

But Kassian the computer geek is clear. He doesn’t need any more friends, and he doesn’t need a lover, never mind two. Kassian the muscle head has a different take on the idea.

When they have to track down a missing computer file and stop a madman from ruining the lives of everyone at SPAM, it’ll take the whole team, a multi-layered plan, and no small amount of luck to succeed.

It will also take the three of them combining their skills to stay alive and save, not just the day, but each other.

Static/Cling is a part of the multi-author Subpar Superheroes MM romance series.

Runaway Prince, by D. K. Sutton

The royal wedding took years to prepare but only one moment of panic and a cute single dad to undo.

As a European prince, I should want for nothing, right? I have money, power, and prestige. But what about love and passion? Acceptance?

But Isaac has his own responsibilities and our chance meeting complicates his life in ways I couldn’t have imagined. As we work together to mitigate the damage, I fall even harder for this amazing man.

How can this work when we live in different countries? Will Isaac lose the person he cares about most? Will my country accept a gay future king?

I don’t know what happens next, but I know I can’t face it without Isaac by my side.

Runaway Prince is the second book in the Wedding Disasters series. If you enjoy books with royals in love, bi-awakening, possessive MCs, tiara-stealing emus, and an HEA, dive into this swoony, laugh-out-loud, small-town romance.

Hopes and Dreams, by Emily Alter

Sergio

If you ignored the fact that I didn’t have a Daddy, my life was pretty perfect. I had a kink community where everyone loved me, I worked from home, and I had an endless supply of milkshakes thanks to my best friend’s addiction.

Not having a Daddy still sucked, though. A lot. Even if I didn’t need one, I really, really wanted one.

Abel

I was on medical leave, struggling to get out of bed most mornings. I had no idea what I was doing by going to a friend’s kink club so she could introduce me to a Little boy there.

From the moment I got in the middle of him and a Dom harassing him, though? There was no way I could walk away. There was more to Sergio than his hyperactive, bratty ways. Something about him made it just a little bit easier to dream again.

* * *

Hopes and Dreams includes a messy Little with a few skeletons in his closet, a lumberjack of a Daddy Dom struggling with depression, tentacles, gold star stickers, queer chaos, and a kink community to die for.

I’m hopelessly obsessed with him.

I can’t get him out of my mind, even when we’re around each other. But if he ever discovers the truth, it could destroy our friendship. The longer we’re stuck together, the harder it becomes to keep my feelings hidden, and the closer I come to risking everything we’ve built.

Ghost After Dark, by Pandora Pine

While listening to the wildly popular paranormal podcast Ghost After Dark, psychic Copeland Forbes hears a disembodied voice crying out for help. The episode was investigating the haunting of a clifftop mansion, where Domenica Fibonacci lived with her wealthy husband, Vic. On a stormy night in 1984, she tragically fell to her death. Forty years later, one question remains: did Domenica jump or was she pushed?

Detective Jude Byrne isn’t convinced the cry for help was real, arguing it was a con job employed in the hopes of bringing more listeners to the podcast. When the host invites Cope onto the podcast to communicate with Domenica’s spirit, Jude is against the idea, fearing the offer is a trap meant to expose Cope as a fraud.

When there’s a major break in the Rothschild haunting, Jude and the cold case detectives are assigned to the case. Working together, Jude and Cope must piece together the clues to determine once and for all how Domenica died.

Did Domenica jump? Was she pushed? More importantly, what role did her husband play in her untimely death?

Samuel’s Heart, by JoJo Stone

The journey to forgiveness begins with goodbye…

Samuel
I don’t deserve love or happiness. The last few years of my life have been full of enough guilt and hurt for me to deny it. The pain in my body matches the pain in my heart and it’s my penance for the role I played in the loss of my mentor, a man who would still be here if it weren’t for my failure. If I can’t even forgive myself, how can those who lost him forgive me?

The guilt that drives me to help others is my only companion—even when it’s to my detriment. That is until I see him. He’s as broken as I am and wants to move on, but he can’t do it alone. I know I’m not good enough for him, but maybe he’s the key to my absolution.

Rory
I spent the last two years enveloped in pain while I tried to find the man I’d loved and lost. My need to say my last goodbye and find closure keeps me driving forward, despite the pain and loneliness. If I can’t find what I lost, how can I ever move forward?

After being blocked, barred, and shut down at every turn, I’m ready to give up. That is until I run into him. We’re both broken, but maybe by helping me, he can help himself, too. He thinks he’s not good enough for me, but I found love once and lost it, so maybe we can find it—together.
