Excerpt: Just Like That by Cole McCade
Just Like That by Cole McCade is available now at all e-tailers. “Why are you attracted to me?” Fox asked. And Summer laughed. He laughed, quick and startled, a short light thing that made Fox think of mayflies startled into taking flight. Wide blue eyes darted to him, then away—very firmly away, Summer turning his head to stare across the grass, toward the stark cliff edge that led down the other side of the slope, into dense forest. His mouth pressed to his upraised shoulder, Continue Reading
Excerpt: The Hideaway Inn by Philip William Stover
Author Introduction I’m going to lean into the Smexy brand here and share my skinny dipping scene. What is smarter or sexier than skinny dipping? When you don’t wear a swimsuit you don’t have to worry about drying it so that has the added bonus of not needing to do laundry which is probably good for the environment. So all that is firmly in the smart column. Now for an M/M romance with a skinny dipping scene in a crystal clear spring-fed stream we are going to have to deal with a word I like Continue Reading

Sexcerpt: Lethal Redemption by April Hunt
I LOVED writing this scene in Lethal Redemption!

It was after her ‘defection’ that she found the family she was always meant to have with father’s sister and four overgrown cousins, and that family also came with the boy next door, Cade Wright. Her and Cade’s relationship grew from friends to teenage sweetheart, and finally to Continue Reading

Angela will have a review for Graveyard Shift on Tuesday. Until then, here is a Sexcerpt from the book :) Wes and Hudson are back in Graveyard Shift, this time trying to figure out why shifters are dying in Toronto from drug overdoses, when drugs shouldn’t affect them like that, and worrying about signs a horde of newbie vampires might be plaguing the city too.
