2 Truths and 1 Lie:

Hiya! Thank you so much for having me on Smexy Books today. I’m here to talk about my brand new M/M urban fantasy series, Soulbound, and the first book that has just come out, A Ferry of Bones & Gold. If you like magic, murder, and mayhem, you won’t want to miss it!

The series will follow Patrick Collins, a federal agent mage, and Jonothon de Vere, a god pack alpha werewolf. Driven by the gods themselves, the two are drawn into a fight against mercenary magic users with ties to Patrick’s past. Winning means they just might get their happily ever after. Losing—well, Patrick doesn’t like to lose, but the Fates are not always on his side.

Considering his background, Patrick is a little bitter and a lot sarcastic. Jono is, well, British. And just a tad territorial, if you know what I mean. I’d love for you to get to know them a little more, so I promised them whiskey if they’d tell two truths and one lie. The answers are at the end of the post, but take a wild guess first!

***

PATRICK

1.  Orders and me get along just fine.

2.  I would be willing to sell my soul for whiskey.

3.  I have never blown up a city block during rush hour.

JONO

1.  I love a chip butty and it’s a bloody shame you Yanks haven’t figured out the joys of that meal.

2.  I jumped in the Thames on a drunken bet.

3.  Don’t tell my mates, but iced tea is my favorite kind of tea now.

***

When the gods come calling, you don’t get to say no.

Patrick Collins is a broken mage running from his past.

Jonothon de Vere is a god pack alpha werewolf searching for a home.

In a world where magic is real, myths and legends exist, and gods walk the earth, Patrick and Jono are thrown together by the Fates themselves to fight against an enemy that threatens to consume the world. For if the gods fall and demons from every hell rise up, humanity won’t stand a chance.

    Synopsis of A Ferry of Bones & Gold:

    When the gods come calling, you don’t get to say no.

    Patrick Collins is three years into a career as a special agent for the Supernatural Operations Agency when the gods come calling to collect a soul debt he owes them. An immortal has gone missing in New York City and bodies are showing up in the wake of demon-led ritual killings that Patrick recognizes all too easily from his nightmares.

    Unable to walk away, Patrick finds himself once again facing off against mercenary magic users belonging to the Dominion Sect. Standing his ground alone has never been a winning option in Patrick’s experience, but it’s been years since he’s had a partner he could trust.

    Looking for allies in all the wrong places, Patrick discovers the Dominion Sect’s next target is the same werewolf the Fates themselves have thrown into his path. Patrick has been inexplicably attracted to the man from their first meeting, but desire has no place in war. That doesn’t stop Patrick from wanting what he shouldn’t have. Jonothon de Vere is gorgeous, dangerous, and nothing but trouble—to the case, to the fight against every hell, and ultimately, to Patrick’s heart and soul.

    In the end, all debts must be paid, and Patrick can only do what he does best—cheat death.

    Magic, murder, and mayhem! You won’t want to miss the first book in a brand new, pulse-pounding m/m urban fantasy series!

    ANSWERS
