Genre: Slow Burn / Urban Fantasy / Enemies to Lovers / Haunting /
Notes: releases may 28th
Blurb: Endure the company of his rival…or suffer ghostly retaliation.
Emery Belmont is a snarky, uptight realist who likes his life ordinary. Like any skeptic, he’s content using mundane explanations to write off signs of paranormal activity. That’s no longer an option when the spirit haunting his house wrecks his new kitchen, forcing Emery closer to facing the supernatural truth. Desperate for a new handyman, he unknowingly hires his hot ex-rival from high school to fix it. Paxton Santos, Emery’s former lacrosse team captain, followed in his father’s footsteps to take over the family business. Annoyingly, Emery requires his talented hands more than he needs to keep Paxton out of his life. However, getting Paxton to leave after the repairs may prove difficult with the meddlesome ghost taking a shine to him, which Paxton seems to take in his grating, good-natured stride, remaining irritatingly unruffled by numerous weird occurrences.
Emery is bombarded by mysterious paranormal hijinks, keeping Paxton at arm’s length, and deciphering things that aren't quiet what they seem. There’s nothing Emery hates more than an unfinished puzzle. In his determination to solve this one, Emery reluctantly opens himself up to new possibilities all while trying to remain firmly rooted in life the way he prefers it—orderly, logically explainable, and, above all else, ghost-free.
Join Emery and Paxton as they face off with a spirit that has no limits to how far it will go to push them together, enduring locked doors, faulty plumbing, and sharing a bed. Together they are determined to navigate their way out of this mess using any means necessary to send the ghost packing. Will they make it out of the traps awaiting them before their pesky tormenter gets any other ideas to make things worse and further blur the line between them?
Matchmaking Beyond the Veil is a 107k slow burn MM romance of rivals to friends to lovers told in single POV. Featuring a meddling ghost playing at matchmaker, forced proximity, bed sharing, ghost tours that totally aren’t dates, and tongue-in-cheek humor. This story ends on a HFN ending with a soft cliffhanger. Emery and Paxton’s story will continue in the next book of the series, Telltale Ghosts Book 2. This book contains denial, an unreliable narrator, two men experimenting with sex magic, fighting what the heart wants, steamy explicit sexual scenes and colorful language intended for adults 18 and older.

Then Max shows up at Frost's bar on Christmas Eve, drunk and in desperate need of help getting home. Frost sees it as a chance to help a friend and maybe spend the night on Max's couch—but getting Max home proves to be a much greater challenge than anticipated.

Title: Dragon Stones
Series: Prince Enki Chronicles, 3
Author: AE Hazel Wood
Length: 244 pages
Publisher:
Genre: Fantasy / Sci-Fi / Horror / Comedy / Coming of Age / LGBT
Notes: When I grabbed this off of Amazon, the title did not give the number the book fell in the series. I did not notice until I added it here. The blurb says it can be read as a standalone but I have added the first two books in this series below. The blurbs of the other two are curious.
Blurb: After millions of years, Ancient Ones finally reached a verdict: The Soul-Prison encasing Earth would no longer be tolerated. And out of all the begins in the Milky Way, the Ancients chose only one to oversee Earth’s deliverance—Prince Enki.There’s just one catch…more than one powerful interested party shares Warden duties over Earth, and they’ll stop at NOTHING to maintain status quo.Ten others have banded with the wise Prince Enki, to pull off this miracle. Three of his most powerful allies are all from Cetrilli Prime…powerful if they can learn to fully tap into and control their powers when most needed.
Mostly fantasy, with a touch of sci-fi, horror, straight and gay romance, coming of age and comedy, makes this third installment fit for the well-rounded and open-minded Ideal Reader.Though a series installment, this book can be read as a Standalone Book, for it contains enough backstory content.
Title: Tethered Treachery
Series: Prince Enki Chronicles, 1
Author: AE Hazel Wood
Length: 175 pages
Publisher:
Genre: Fantasy / Sci-Fi / Horror / Comedy / Coming of Age / LGBT
Notes:
Blurb: The name’s EA. I’m over 500,000 of your Earth-years old. We call your planet, Ki. I was sent here for one purpose: gold. That’s why your kind crave it. It’s learned behavior.
So, after years of meticulous terraforming and mining modifications, I finally struck a balance between our labor pool and our mining work load. That’s when my countrymen dubbed me “The Prince of Ki,” ergo “EN.KI.” We had some macro and micro interruptions since then, but overall, things remained relatively quiet until this morning when I received some curious news. One of my many eyes on the ground in every major metropolitan area, said they spotted what looked like a child with the power to stop time. My spy said it appeared the child delivered a warning to four young humans. He said he was able to get within arm’s reach of the four, and during his keen observations he said he’d best describe them as one impertinent Mexican woman, one jaded Japanese woman, one licentious Persian man and one asshat of a German man. When I feigned ignorance of that ‘asshat’ slight, my spy confessed his indulgence in that paranormal show. I can’t wait until he finds out next season’s their last run. I don’t overshare.
What I did want someone to overshare about was why these four were so important? Who or what was that “child” seen warning the four? And did this phenomenon portend trouble?
Whatever it means, I’m getting the sense that nothing will be as it seems…like it’s a small puzzle from a…
TETHERED TREACHERY.

Note: If the use of the color white for evil and black for good, startles you…good!
My fiction is full of truths.
As this book draws closer to its end, the chapters fall under a strong “tethering” spell.

Length: 233 pages
Publisher:
Genre: Fantasy / Sci-Fi / Horror / Comedy / Coming of Age / LGBT
Notes:
Blurb: It’s me again. The Father of mankind, often either misunderstood, underestimated or misnomered. But you may call me Prince EN.KI.
This story started like all the others. Something seemingly benign and ordinary, turns out to be the tip of a horrific and insidious plan with widespread implications of the worst kind. Such was the case today.
I miss the early days on your planet, which we call Ki (Oh, did you know that my other name is EA…sounds like…never mind). Back in the simpler times, the fathers or elders would take their sons, and daughters if they were like my sister, NIN.MAH, to the family fishing holes. They would bait their hooks, swat away the insects and, if all went as expected, at the end of their day, they’d come home with a nice addition to the dinner meal. This story begins much like this, except you humans and the fish, and….well, to find out more read…
