This week the 2020-2021 Rainbow Awards were announced. Just a couple of days before that I found out that Constant (The Valespian Pact, 3) received an Honorable Mention. I was thrilled because it let me know that one of the judges really enjoyed the story and I got to read their comments.
To my surprised, Constant also tied as a Runner-Up for Best Bisexual Book. To put it simply, just Wow.
The winner of Best Bisexual Book was On Top of Glass: My Stories as a Queer Girl in Figure Skating by Karina Manta
The other Runners-Up were:
Peacemaker by E.M. Hamill
Frost & Raine by K.L. Noone
Give Me Grace by Bethany A. Perry tied with When I First Saw Red (The Soldiers and Mercenaries) by Kasia Bacon

The Rainbow Awards takes months to put together and raises money for LBGTQIA+ charities all across the word. Heart felt thank yous to Elisa Rolle and the judges who make the Rainbow Awards happen.
Honorable Mention to Constant (The Valespian Pact #3) by Lexi Ander: I have had the pleasure of reading all the books in this Valespian series - Constant, not only fill in the gaps left over from the previous too books, it also re-enforce Lexi Anders skill as a fantastic world builder. The character in this third book are fully formed - you either love them or hate them. The multi-laying of the personalities was a very pleasing thing to watch develop. The world building was phenomenal. the fact this entire series leaned into the space opera aspect and fleshed it out properly out was an added bonus for me. I wont be forgetting this book, these character, or this author anytime soon. Very pleased to have found this series.
Chief Warlord Sohm'lan has a job he loves protecting the family who claims him as one of their own. He has known the loss of a mate and believed he would walk alone for the rest of his life… that is until Prince Mestor demanded more from him than duty. Unable to fathom why Mestor would want a widowed older warrior, Sohm'lan maintains his distance believing Mestor will eventually choose an amor closer in age and experience, even though the thought causes him more pain than it should.
Prince Mestor is tired of pretending and his patience is eroding. He needs Sohm'lan to see past their respective ranks and duties to who Mestor is underneath it all. Worried Sohm'lan will be lost to him if he pushes too hard, Mestor and Sohm'lan are caught in a dance of denied desires and tangled obligations.
Warlord Sohm'lan and Prince Mestor struggle to find a way to their heart's desire against the backdrop of galactic conspiracies, the dangerous mission escorting the Fal'Amoric royals, and discoveries within the Vondorian family that threaten to tear apart everything they hold dear. The two of them must stand together to fight the coming battle whatever the consequences.
