What have I been doing this week? Cherish's manuscript didn't stay with the proofreader for long. I've been going though the edits and doing a thorough reread. I imagine that I'll have a release date selected soon. :)
As for reading, this week I'm looking at recent releases that I have been waiting for. I haven't read them yet since I've been working on a couple of other projects, but they are on my TBR list and waiting for me. :D

Title: Captured
Series: (Star Marked Warriors Book 1)
Author(s): Sam Burns, WM Fawkes
Length: 222 pages
Genre: Romance / Aliens / Sci-Fi / Gay
Notes:
Blurb: An alien prince, a threatened throne, and the human mate who can help him save it…
Lucas: Sure, my life isn’t going exactly according to plan—I have a degree that led nowhere, a crappy job as a closing-shift barista, and an ex who has everything I want and got it . . . by dumping my sorry ass—but that doesn’t mean I’m willing to give up on living yet! And holy crap, when I’m plucked off the sidewalk of my rural Colorado town on the very night of my ex’s wedding, I’m pretty damn sure I’m about to lose my life and a whole lot more.
If you’ve never tried flying, I do not recommend the first time be when you’re drunk and alone at two in the morning. But there I was, dumped in a cage on a spacecraft, surrounded by barbarous, giant blue aliens. And the only thing that might keep me safe is there’s one huge, intimidating warrior who can’t keep his eyes off me.
Kaelum: I am the true-born son of the King Xyren the Imperator, but as a Thorzi-human hybrid, my path to the throne of Thorzan is far from clear. My father’s people are enormous and foreboding, their skin is the deep dark of twilight when our planet’s twin stars set. I am not. My enemies think I am small, soft, incapable, and they dog my every step.
If I am to take my rightful place, I must focus on saving my people. But my mother was born on a far-away blue planet called Earth. In my bones, I know the answer to my problems hides out there beyond the stars.
By popular cowriting duo Sam Burns & W.M. Fawkes, Captured is an M/M SciFi alien romance with a warrior prince, a resourceful human at the end of his rope, an intergalactic war that could keep them apart forever, and true love that’s entirely out of this world! This book is first in the Star Marked Warriors series, but each book can be read as standalone. This series does not contain mpreg.
Series: The Nightshade Guild
Author(s): Sheri Lyn
Length: 77 pages
Genre: Romance / Fantasy / Poly / Gay
Notes: This is part of a series that is a shared universe with other authors. I was just looking through the others and there is another gay romance in the group. They are all short stories or novellas, so quick reads.
Blurb: Cale Cawthorn is one of twelve mages tasked with protecting Princess Ameria. Like his guildmates, he wasn't prepared to care for a toddler for a month. Especially not at his home in literal hell. Granted it's a safe space, but he needs help and who better than his best friend Turak.
Turak couldn't believe Cale had seven months to prepare for the arrival of Ameria and he did nothing. He could have read a book at the very least, but the mage was too stubborn. Thankfully he had a demon at his side to help. Together they could handle anything that came their way... right?
Marek felt like he'd spent all his time watching Cale and Turak from a distance. Their friendship intrigued him, their flirting amused him. Until Princess Ameria arrived and he couldn't sit back and watch anymore. The men needed help and it was his duty to be of assistance.

Omega actor Kai Carroll has it all: money, fame, popularity… everything except love. He was betrayed by the man he thought was his true love years ago, and he swears he will never love again. When the tabloids explode with scandal, Kai finds himself kicked to the curb. Jobless, friendless… unless you count the borderline harassment he gets from his number-one fan—which he doesn’t. Turns out, the perfect life he worked so hard for is nothing more than a mirage. When his agent calls with a mysterious offer to act in a play in Valleywood, he has no choice but to accept the role. What does he have to lose… right?
Alpha shifter Daniel Agassi lost everything eight years ago, and he swears he doesn’t know how it happened. There he was, just minding his own business, living his best life, when out of nowhere—BAM!—he found himself stuck in his cat form. He couldn’t shift back to tell his true love, Kai, that he never intended to leave him at the altar. And since then, he’s been trapped, without any way to send word. Instead, he’s been a pissed-off pet for almost a decade. When the spell is finally broken, his only goal is to reconnect with Kai. The only problem? The omega is no longer the man he used to be. Then again, the same could be said for Daniel.
Encore is book 2 of the highly anticipated multi-author series, Valleywood, a bustling city struggling with its hold on magic. Encore is a drama-filled mpreg romance featuring a grumpy cat shifter who's tired of being caged, an omega who swears he's done with love, and a second-chance love affair years in the making.
Title: The Merman Prince's Daddy
Series: (Mythically Royal Book 1)
Author(s): Lorelei M. Hart, Colbie Dunbar
Length: 197 pages
Genre: Romance / Paranormal / Mpreg / Gay
Notes: I don't think this is daddy/little kink, though I might be wrong.
Blurb: I swam from my future only to find my daddy.
Alpha wolf shifter Alton heard the call of the sea from his pack’s territory in the mountains. Yet it’s only in the wake of his father’s death that he follows destiny’s current to the shoreline. While his soul finds peace during the day, listening to the gently lapping waves, at night his dreams are haunted by long suppressed memories.
Through those flashes of moments long forgotten, Alton realizes he’s there for more than a new start. It’s up to him to right the wrongs of the past…
As next in line for the throne, omega merman Merrik’s entire life has been arranged for him. Which means an alpha has been chosen for him. Unfortunately, even the idea of this mating makes Merrik’s skin crawl. That leaves him with only one choice: leave his underwater kingdom and cross his fingers the whole situation blows over.
Little does he know, fate has other plans. No sooner do his toes sink into the sand, than Merrik feels the unmistakable pull of the mate bond. The fact that it’s to a human would have been shocking enough, but to a smexy wolf bearing the mark of the forbidden ones is downright scandalous. His father may never forgive him, yet Merrik can’t deny he aches for Alton’s touch. Can the love they share rewrite their peoples’ sordid history? Or will it come crashing down like white-capped waves on a rocky shoreline?
The Merman Prince’s Daddy is the first book in the Mythically Royal series featuring princes who find their happily ever after. The Merman Prince’s Daddy features a merman who’d rather not be prince, a shifter who didn’t know mermen were real, an underwater kingdom that rivals Atlantis, adorable babies, and a first-time royal heat.

Hart and Colbie Dunbar is for you.
