Darius Cooper, Maitre d’ of upscale Montgomery House, isn’t entirely pleased when owner Rhys Montgomery decides to allow the Gourmet Network to use the restaurant for an episode of a reality show. But if he thought that was bad, discovering the show’s director is his former lover, Max Boyd, is nearly catastrophic. Max is the only man Dare has ever loved, and he’s spent seven years fruitlessly trying to erase Max from his mind and heart.

Max was young and immature when he and Dare were together, but now he’s a different man, and ready to settle down into the kind of relationship he wasn’t prepared for back then. He’s never found anyone else who affects him the way Dare does, and he wants Dare back in his life, but the only problem is Dare isn’t the forgiving sort. Between dealing with bridezillas and Executive Chef Stephen Pierce, Max has his hands full. Fortunately he has a ninja-Cupid in the form of Stephen’s PA Robert Logan on his side – but Max still isn’t certain if Dare will forgive him, or if he’s blown his only chance at true love after all.

To celebrate the most romantic day of the year, we’re giving away a free copy of our up-coming Valentine’s Day novella, “Fortune’s Slings and Cupid’s Arrows”!

This story takes background characters mentioned in “Santa’s Naughty Helper” and brings them to the forefront for their very own Valentine’s Day romance!

Dane Coulter is so far in the closet, he can’t even see the door – not even when his father forces him into an engagement he doesn’t want. Randolph Coulter rules his family with an iron fist, and Dane is so concerned about his mother’s happiness that he is willing to sacrifice his own. But when his best friend Cal seduces him in a desperate attempt to make Dane confront the truth about himself before he makes a terrible mistake, it only complicates matters and drives a wedge between them. Now Dane is alone, and he has to make a decision. Can he stand up to his father and fight for his own happiness, or will he lose Cal forever?

Our give-away will run through February 12, and one lucky person will win a free copy of the story, which will be emailed to them on its release day (February 13). Good luck!

On 19 December our novelette “Santa’s Naughty Helper” will be published by Torquere. In this story, an office secret gift exchange becomes the way by a which a shy lawyer woos the man of his dreams. This was one so much fun to write, and I hope everyone enjoys it!

December 1 is still the publication date for our other holiday offering, “On The Rocks”, in Dreamspinner’s “Evergreen” Daily Dose anthology. The path to true love isn’t always easy, but sometimes a little help from a cinematic angel can make all the difference.

Thanks to everyone who is reading “Bay Leaves and Bachelors”! We’ve been so pleased with the reception it has gotten! We have plans for other folks at Montgomery House, so stay tuned!

We’re excited to have several publications coming in the next couple of months!

First on the list will be our first novella, entitled “Bay Leaves and Bachelors”, which will be at Torquere in their “Spice It Up” line. We’re excited because we really love working in a longer format, as many of our long-time fans know, and so this is definitely more up our alley! It will be released on November 7th.

Next, about 1 December, we will have a story coming out at Dreamspinner as part of their “Evergreen” holiday collection. Entitled “On The Rocks”, it’s all about resolving misunderstandings and finding love with the person you’re truly meant to be with.

On 30 January, we have another story at Torquere, in their Color Box line – “Caribbean Blues”. If you enjoy rebounds, love at first sight, and happy endings, this story is for you!

We’re currently working on another holiday story that we hope will be accepted and published in mid-December. We also just submitted a novel, and we’re biting our nails in hope that it will be published.

As the holidays approach, we hope everyone stays safe and enjoys a little romance in their lives!

We just received word from Torquere that our sixth story (although in publishing order it will be third!), “A Hundred Lonely Halloweens”, will be published on October 17th! This is so exciting, because as McKay pointed out, we will have had releases in September, October, November, and December of this year!  We don’t have a date for Caribbean Blues yet, but if it’s in January, that would be awesome. Keep your eyes on this space, hopefully there will be more good news to come!
