About the book
The tall alien’s eyes flashed. That was the only warning I got. He charged at me, throwing my crew mates aside as if they were nothing.
In that moment, I was certain he would kill me.
But no death blow came. Instead, he spoke, his deep voice heavily accented, each word like stone slabs falling into place.
“You are mine.”
Clay
I don't ask for much from life; I get paid, and then I get laid. And piloting spaceships across the galaxy keeps my solo lifestyle well funded. I don't need a relationship or any of the baggage that comes with it. I like my men like I like my coffee; to go.
That is, until the most boring job in the universe goes horribly wrong and I’m snatched from my ship by a seven-foot alien. He's huge, he's purple, and he's ripped as hell. I'm sure I'm a dead man.
Only it turns out he doesn't want to kill me. What he wants is far worse.
Arcay
I am the Second; Aldar royalty, the right hand of our leader. I live a half life. On my planet, alphas and omegas are believed to be two halves of a soul. But Omegas are a rare treasure, all but extinct, and I have resigned myself to never knowing the joy of a soul bond.
But that all changes the moment I step onto the human ship. By some miracle, their pilot is an unclaimed omega. It does not matter that he is a different species, I have to have him.
That should be my happy ending; omegas are supposed to be meek, obedient, and willing. Clay is anything but. He resists me at every turn. I must bend him to my will before his potent pheromones draw every unmated alpha on the ship–my rank will only hold them back for so long.
Book 1 in the Coveted Bonds series.

About the book
A Grumpy Sunshine MM romance from New York Times bestselling author, J. Daniels.
Kindhearted Felix longs for gruff, sexy Jake — but a relationship seems out of the question as the two fight to stay on the road to sobriety.
They say the best way to get over someone is to get under someone else.
They say the best way to stay sober is to love yourself.
I’m great at making bad decisions.
Addict? Check. Poor impulse control? Check. Obsessed with the guy I’m sponsoring? Check Check Check.
There is no one worse for me to want in my bed than Jake Tully. He’s hot and grumpy and literally a terrible idea. Terrible. Worse, no one has ever made me feel the way he does — valued. But here I am - thinking about him again.
Falling for my sponsor is not my worst idea yet, but it’s damn close.
Felix Fields is everything good. He’s thoughtful and kind. I can’t help but think about every bad thing we could do between these sheets.
But we can’t be together. I’m not willing to risk my recovery for anyone – even if he might be perfect for me.
Finding a love like this is nothing short of a tragedy.

About the book
Alice was supposed to be a proper young lady. Then she followed a rabbit into a land where nothing made sense, and everything finally did.
In Wonderland, chaos reigns and tea is more philosophy than refreshment. Alice meets Hattie, a hatter with a crooked grin, clever tongue, and a knack for turning the world upside down. Together, they dodge riddles, beasts, and expectations.
But Wonderland isn’t just about escape. It’s about transformation. With Hattie by her side, Alice questions the life she left behind and begins to unravel who she really is.
As their bond deepens, so do the stakes. Because in this mad world, even love comes with a cost.
If Alice wants to find herself, she’ll have to lose everything that made her.

Choose your retailer
About the book
Phineas Smith has been cursed with a power no one could control. Roark Lyne is his worst enemy and his only hope. First in the Darkest Court series.
The only human student at Mather's School of Magick, Phineas Smith has a target on his back. Born with the rare ability to tap into unlimited magick, he finds both Faerie Courts want his allegiance—and will do anything to get it.
They don't realize he can't levitate a feather, much less defend the Faerie Realm as it slips into civil war.
Unseelie Prince Roark Lyne—Phineas's roommate and self-proclaimed arch nemesis—is beautiful and brave and a pain in the ass. Phineas can't begin to sort through their six years of sexual tension masquerading as mutual dislike. But Roark is also the only one able to help Finn tame his magick.
Trusting Roark's mysterious motives may be foolish; not accepting his temporary protection would be deadly.
Caught in the middle of the impending war, Phineas and Roark forge a dangerous alliance. And as the walls between them crumble, Phineas realizes that Roark isn't the monster he'd imagined. But their growing intimacy threatens to expose a secret that could either turn the tide of the war . . . or destroy them both.

Our take
Ben’s turning forty and falling apart. Literally. On the ice. Enter Jake, the charming stranger who turns Ben’s cringey solo birthday into something sweet.

Choose your retailer
About the book
Ben Porter is turning forty. Alone. On a rainy Saturday. And yes, he's spiraling a bit.
What begins as a sad, last-minute solo trip to the ice rink quickly becomes a full-blown birthday disaster. Ben hasn’t skated in years, and it shows. So when a gorgeous stranger comes to his rescue after a particularly ungraceful wipeout, Ben assumes he’s staff. He’s not.
Jake has his own reasons for showing up at the rink, and none of them involve watching Ben flail around on the ice. But as it turns out, Ben’s worst birthday might just be the start of something new.
First Dates and Birthday Cakes is a charming, low-angst MM romcom full of heart, humor, and unexpected second chances—no midlife crisis required.

Monsters. Magic. Memory loss. And one cursed town on the edge of ruin.
As Blackthorn’s only hedgewitch, Aziza El-Amin handles everything from wayward wood nymphs to shadow beasts in the park. But when a dark force awakens, the veil between realms thins—and something hungry slips through.
Leo Merritt can’t remember the name of the person he once loved. A curse stole his memories and left a gaping absence. Desperate, he teams up with Aziza: he’ll help patrol the woods, and she’ll help break his curse.
But the creature stalking their town won’t go quietly. And when a secretive necromancer enters the mix, trust becomes a weapon—and sacrifice a certainty.
The Buried and the Bound is a gorgeously dark YA fantasy filled with haunted forests, dangerous bargains, and slow-burning secrets.

About the book
I’m not in love with my best friend. That’s the lie I keep telling myself.
Copeland Justice used to be everything. My closest friend. My safe place. Then he became the enemy who ruined me with a look and broke me with a word. Now every glance cuts, every interaction burns, and I can't tell where the hate ends and the craving begins.
This is not a love story wrapped in flowers and sunshine. It's messy. It's painful. It's the kind of love you try to bury but can’t stop needing.
From USA Today bestselling author K Webster comes a sizzling, angst-drenched MM romance about blurred lines, twisted loyalties, and the fine line between hating someone and wanting them more than anything.

To Catch a Firefly
Emmy Sanders
LGBTQIA+ · Romance
Our take
He was the boy who changed everything, and the man Ellis never stopped loving. In To Catch a Firefly, childhood friends Ellis and Lucky Buchanan reunite when Lucky returns home, stirring years of unspoken longing and quiet devotion. As tension replaces certainty, this M/M friends to lovers romance traces enduring pining, vulnerability, and the courage it takes to claim a heart that feels destined.
Choose your retailer
About the book
He was my beginning. And my never-ending.
Ellis
There’s a lot I’ve never told my best friend. The fact that I love him. That I miss him every day he’s gone. That, sometimes, I ache for him with a ferocity that leaves me breathless.
Lucky Buchanan tore into my life as a boy, wild and daring, my opposite in every way. He drew me in, stole my heart without trying. He hears me, even though I rarely speak a word. But I always knew this place wouldn’t be enough for my free-spirited friend. I knew he wasn’t mine to keep.
So why, when I finally try to get over him, does he sweep back into town? Why is he upset? Why is there tension between us for the first time in years?
I never saw a future where Lucky could be mine. But now, unless I want to lose my friend, I might not have a choice but to tell the truth. My heart belongs to him. It has from the start.
If only I knew how to hold onto a creature that’s meant to fly.
To Catch a Firefly is a standalone, childhood friends-to-lovers romance told in dual POV. There’s epic levels of pining, a neurodivergent MC with selective mutism, two friends who always come back to one another, glass hearts and romantic declarations, and a HEA beneath the night sky.

Called “a meaty romance that you can’t put down” by RT Book Reviews, this romantic suspense novel follows Edgar-Allen Church as he leaves the foster system and tries to build a stable future after serving time for assault.

Choose your retailer
About the book
"An edge-of-your-seat tale of suspense paired with a heart-stopping romance . . . Love blooms amid the gritty realism of Sidney Bell's harrowing plot." —Sarina Bowen, USA Today–bestselling author
Released after five years in the system for assault, streetwise Edgar-Allen Church is ready to leave the past behind and finally look to his future. In need of a place to crash, he's leaning on Miller Quinn. A patient, solidly masculine pillar of strength and support, Miller has always been there for him—except in the one way Church has wanted the most.
With his staunchly conservative upbringing, Miller has been playing it straight his whole life. Now with Church so close again, it's getting harder to keep his denial intact. As they fumble their way back to friendship after so many years apart, Miller struggles to find the courage to accept who he really is. What he has with Church could be more than desire—it could be love. But it could also mean trouble.
Church's criminal connections are closing in on the both of them, and more than their hearts are at risk. This time, their very lives are on the line.
Don't miss the next titles in Sidney Bell's male/male romance series: Hard Line and Rough Trade.
"Bell writes a meaty romance that you can't put down, and it's a worthy addition to the M/M contemporary romance genre." —RT Book Reviews (Top Pick)

I Am Not Myself These Days
Josh Kilmer-Purcell
Biographies & Memoirs · LGBTQIA+
Our take
A New York Times bestselling memoir called “absolutely hilarious and heartbreaking and heartfelt” by Armistead Maupin, I Am Not Myself These Days follows Josh Kilmer-Purcell’s dual life as a New York advertising art director by day and glitter-dripping drag queen by night, with a 4.3-star rating from more than 900 Amazon reviewers. Ideal for readers looking for darkly funny memoirs about queer nightlife, reinvention, performance, and messy self-discovery.
Choose your retailer
About the book
"A glittering, bittersweet vision of an outsider who turned himself into the life and soul of the party. Kilmer-Purcell's cast is part freak-show, part soap-opera, but his prose is graced with such insight and wit that the laughter is revelatory, and the tears—and there are tears to be shed along this extraordinary journey—are shed for people in whom everybody will find something of themselves. In a word, wonderful." — Clive Barker
"Absolutely hilarious and heartbreaking and heartfelt." —Armistead Maupin, author of Tales of the City
The New York Times bestselling, darkly funny memoir of a young New Yorker's daring dual life—advertising art director by day, glitter-dripping drag queen and nightclub beauty-pageant hopeful by night—was a smash literary debut for Josh Kilmer-Purcell, now known for his popular Planet Green television series The Fabulous Beekman Boys. His story begins here—before the homemade goat milk soaps and hand-gathered honeys, before his memoir of the city mouse's move to the country, The Bucolic Plague—in I Am Not Myself These Days, with "plenty of dishy anecdotes and moments of tragi-camp delight" (Washington Post).

Hunt the Wood
Anna Fury & Amy Pennza

Our take
A reluctant witch. A deadly forest. A monstrous lord who just might be more than he seems. Hunt the Wood is a steamy dark fantasy where fate, fear, and forbidden desire collide. With 4.5 stars on Amazon, this witchy tale blends danger and slow-burn romance in a world where nothing is as it first appears.
Choose your retailer
About the book
I’m not a powerful witch, just a fortune teller making ends meet. But when my grandmother, the leader of the Rathmore Coven, summons me, I have no choice but to answer her call. To reach her, I must cross the Wood, the realm of Wotan, lord of the hunt. Rumors of his cruelty and brutality precede him, but nothing prepares me to meet the monster face to face.
Because Wotan is more than a monster. He’s a predator, a bully, and now he’s claimed me as his pawn in his war against my grandmother. A master of torture, he’s determined to master me, stripping me bare of all my secrets.
Yet as much as I fear him, I’m drawn to him. His rough edges conceal a softer side—and I find myself wondering if I can be the one to finally tame him. With my life hanging in the balance, I’ve got to fight to uncover the truth about Wotan, my grandmother…and maybe my own destiny.
