Vampire Revival

Pentacle, Book One

Olivia Strange

When a handsome, half-naked man staggers into emergency physician Vanessa Franklin’s hospital, she does her utmost to save him. Yet he arouses her in ways that she scarcely thought possible. It is as if she had known him, in every way, in some distant time and place.

When the man goes into cardiac arrest, her attempt to defibrillate him hurls her back a century to fogbound London. There, she discovers how she knew the man. His name is Rex Talbot, and in this past life, he and Vanessa are members of a group of vampire-hunters known as The Pentacle.

The past can repeat itself, and to some with the right powers, events can be altered for their selfish gain. Such are the aims of Lord Edgar Beaconsfield, the vampire lord who Vanessa and Rex dispatched once, but whose loyal minions have found a way to resurrect their lord, even if it involves dangerous time travel.

Together, Vanessa and Rex must rediscover how they defeated Lord Beaconsfield, yet their greatest obstacle is their own desires for each other; deprived of each other’s body for over a century, their rekindled passion knows no bounds. Little do they realize these desires are worth more than their blood to the vampire lord, and if they fail this time, there might be no future to return to.

Cookies, Candles, and Cute Butts for Christmas

Cookies, Candles, and Cute Butts for Christmas

Cameron D. James & Cali Kitsu

It’s gonna be a hot Christmas in Frosty Bottoms, when Braden, the new hunky veterinarian strolls into town, but this gorgeous man is no stranger, and he’s no longer a vet. He’s coming back to Frosty Bottoms to bake cookies and dip his wick in Kellan, the local candlemaker, who happens to be his childhood best friend.

Kellan knows Braden is coming back to town and taking over BJ’s Cookies and he’s unsure how to feel about it. They have a past; Kellan felt something but then Braden moved away.

Sparks soon fly when Braden reunites with Kellan, but they want different things. Braden is only interested in a relationship, while Kellan is only looking for hookups. With mishaps galore, including over-excited family, unrecognizable otters, and motorboating a muscle chest, everyone and everything seems to be pushing the two men together.

When the initial ice between them melts, it’s not long before more than cookie dough is being rolled out on Braden’s counters…and a certain bottom is getting frosted.

Froderick, Gay Son of Dracula

Posted on by Deep Desires Press

Froderick, Gay Son of Dracula

Cali Kitsu

My name is Froderick Dracula, but my friends call me Frode. I’m seventeen and starting my junior year of high school. My father, the famous Count Dracula, is not only the most celebrated vampire in the world, but he’s also the school ruler, not to mention a huge idiot. He’s completely out of touch with the world and hates anything that he doesn’t understand—which is basically everything.

Being the son of the ruler of the school and the highest vampire in all of vampire society is hard enough on its own, but there’s one thing I forgot to mention: I’m gay. It’s pretty hard keeping such a big secret, especially with my father trying to convince me to get my first bite out of the way. I’m not interested in biting any girls, though, so that’s not gonna happen.

Starting the first day of school will be just like every other year, boring, bland, full of classes that I don’t care about. That’s what I assumed until our opening assembly, when I saw him. Caleb Cheval. The new vampire in school. He’s also a noble, and he wants to—hold my hand?

Whaaat?! What the fangs am I supposed to do?

Normal

Normal

John Luke Maxwell

Anyone who grew up in the small town of Normal has heard of old Milholland Place. Crispin Galloway certainly has. He's lived next door to the haunted house for years.

It’s now 1997 and a new family is renting the creepy old house. Crispin isn't putting money on them sticking around for very long. Nobody who rents the Milholland Place ever does. He certainly has no intention of going over there himself. After all, he's got enough on his mind, what with having a sexual awakening and crushing on his best friend.

Unfortunately, his new neighbors are in the market for a babysitter to take care of their twin children, and Crispin needs money. The job seems easy enough, even though it means spending an evening at Spook Central, and the money is good. Crispin figures he can handle it.

But then, strange things start happening. Crispin hears noises he shouldn't. Odd messages are left for him. And there is a growing sense that someone—or something—is watching him. Is he merely the victim of a practical joke? Or are the stories about the old Milholland Place rooted in reality?

It's up to Crispin and his friends to discover the truth. Four meddling teenagers and their dog will have to band together to solve this mystery.

And it's not like that's ever happened before!

Possession

Possession

Charli Mac

Clara died a horrible death, slipping and sliding in her own blood while she tried to stop an elderly neighbor from being robbed. She passed, but she didn’t go anywhere. Life as a ghost isn’t too bad, though. She has her neighbor, Agnes, and together they learn how to dream-share so that Clara can have some company, but then Agnes dies and the cottage sits empty for years.

It’s a lonely, lonely existence, but a safe one.

When Patrick buys the cottage and moves in with big plans to renovate it, Clara’s isolation is broken, but so also is her little bubble of security.

Patrick draws her. He’s handsome, intense, and full of life. He’s everything Clara has been starved of. She dream-shares with him, even knowing he doesn’t understand that she’s real. In those dreams, Patrick takes her to places she never imagined she’d want to go, down the seductive rabbit hole of BDSM. Clara is enraptured, but now that she’s had a taste, she wants more. She wants Patrick to know that she’s real, that he’s doing all these things with her…not with a figment of his imagination.

Such a Small World

Jordan Clayden-Lewis

A speculative queer love story wrapped in memories that won’t stay buried.

Mackenzie’s last boyfriend cheated on him. And for reasons unknown, he didn’t see it coming, even with his ability to see the relationship timeline with every new person he meets - friends, acquaintances, and lovers included.

Usually, these clips of the future, nicknamed Brain Cinema, play out like a movie in his head, only lasting a few seconds most of the time. But that’s not the case when he meets flight attendant Jasper on a plane to Central Australia from the East Coast.

After seeing his relationship timeline with Jasper, Mackenzie realizes he’s received much more than anticipated on this holiday so far. In the vision, he sees them falling in love and living happy years together, but also Jasper dying in his arms around ten years later. This dredges up Mackenzie’s past, and he feels as if history is repeating itself. So he avoids Jasper at all costs in an attempt to save him.

How much can Mackenzie really control his love and life, though, and at what point must he surrender to what’s meant for him, all the while knowing that his time with Jasper is limited?

Say Yes, Baby

Geneva Gordon

Self-made billionaire Mickey Finn is at the top of his game, buying and developing properties. He has no time for relationships and no need for them either—quick one-night stands have always been enough for him.

Parker Chen is a world-renowned drummer who works with some of the hottest acts in the industry—including with Mickey’s brother’s band. Not only is Parker incredibly talented, she’s also young and gorgeous. She, too, has no need for relationships when a short dalliance will do…until she meets Mickey Finn.

Mickey is at once enchanted by Parker, but for two attractive young people who seem so perfectly matched, fate has other plans. Between dangerous miscommunications, clingy exes with no boundaries, and the high stresses of both their worlds, it feels like it’s just not meant to be, especially when the perceived threat of betrayal steps in…

A Cat's Play is the Death of Mice

Kon Blacke

When Oliver Merritt’s parents were murdered by a strange, shadowed man in an alleyway off the foggy streets of Victorian London, he vowed to get revenge against him. In his sorrow, Oliver discovered he has magic—an energy that’s anchored to his physical self and acts as an enhanced extension of his senses, but only stays with him if he remains chaste.

With nowhere else to go, Oliver accepts an offer to live in a brothel, starting work as an exotic dancer to earn his keep. If he thought his life had been turned upside down, things become even more interesting when a scraggly, tousle-haired lad named Tom Arkwright—the son of a local constable—arrives at the brothel as part of another murder investigation.

Together they help each other with their cases, and in doing so, they realize the shadowed man who murdered Oliver’s parents—called the Skilamalink Man—is responsible for all the murders in the area. Oliver soon finds himself falling for the charming, streetwise young Tom.

Now he must choose between revenge and love. But if he chooses his heart, is it right to sacrifice his magic, when it might be the only thing that can stop the Skilamalink Man from killing again?

Bloodlust

Bloodlust

Tawnya Torres

A pandemic results in two types of undead: walking corpses or blood-thirsty vampires. Logan and his brother Matthew await death from scarlet fever but are given the second option by Matthew’s twin, Liam, when he returns from war.

The brothers join an all-male gang of Vamps who go out together to feed. Women in town are drawn to them by an offer to participate in “bloodlust”, a feeding that begins with sexual rituals, then turns deadly when the sun goes down. Most girls don’t make it home.

Logan has been sleeping with Matthew’s fianceé, but the guilt of being a liar and a thug causes him to re-think his actions. After a particularly brutal night of bloodlust, Logan comes across a dying girl calling out for help. Unsure of what to do, and with his mounting guilt, Logan decides to change her. She wakes with amnesia and Logan teaches her how to live in his world while trying to find the man who left her for dead, not realizing how dangerous such a pursuit might be—for both of them.

Deadly Valentine

Deadly Valentine

John Luke Maxwell

Dating a porn star comes with certain expectations, especially when one's relationship remains somewhat in the limelight. More than once, Rafael Vásquez has been asked via social media if his porn legend hunk of a boyfriend, Jean Locke Holmes, will ever come out of retirement. Holmes seems content to live out a life of leisure with Raf, however, focusing on their relationship and the occasional baffling murder case that comes their way.

That is, until a chance encounter with Holmes' old director pushes Holmes back into the business. Kincaid Marx, the man whose movies made Holmes the iconic gay sex stud that he is, wants to make one final movie before he retires from filmmaking. This production is to be Kincaid's magnum opus, a blockbuster-worthy flick that will rock the Grabby Awards. For that to happen, though, Kincaid needs Holmes to agree to star in it. Joining the lineup-up is a second porn legend, Casper Peyton, whom Holmes just so happens to be a fan of. The two salacious studs will have to share far more than the spotlight, and Raf finds himself sidelined into the role of extra and script doctor.

Things take an even more complicated turn after several accidents occur on set. Someone seems determined to shut Kincaid's production down for good. Adding to the mystery is a sinister presence stalking Peyton, one who claims through threatening Valentines to know secrets lurking in Peyton's past. Holmes will have to get to the bottom of this mystery—and get in touch with his inner bottom in the process. Raf learns very quickly the differences between fantasy and reality. Can his relationship with Holmes survive the stud's return to stardom?
