Calix Addington, Earl of Batherton, has a complicated relationship with his friend and former classmate, Lawton Adler. Lawton’s tendency to attract, and often cause, trouble leaves Calix sometimes holding the bag (which definitely happens). Calix is also harboring a secret – he’s an Oracle, like his mother, and in a world where small magic is meant for aesthetics and convenience, larger displays of magic are frowned upon, sometimes illegal, and very much what the church and several important organizations fear. When Calix is stuck with a strange book after Lawton’s shady dealings go wrong one spring morning, he takes shelter in Ethaniel Harkness’s magical tailoring shop. Calix and Ethaniel know each other as customer and tailor, but Ethaniel’s kind heart won’t let Calix stay in danger. As Calix hears the strange book speak in his mind, Ethaniel contacts his old flame Aubrey Lavigne. Aubrey’s expertise with magical objects as the curator for the Magnificus Collectio, an archive hidden behind a tourist trap museum, will be key to understanding what this book truly is. Magic, love, lust, fear, and danger run rampant as this strange book becomes the catalyst for a much larger plot conducted by a secret sect known as The Golden Order. With The Golden Order giving chase to retrieve the book, Calix, Ethaniel, and Aubrey’s lives tangle and they must flee the city to separate Calix from the book, shake off their pursuers, and find time for their burgeoning attractions. COUP DE COEUR has deep roots in the real-life queer history of New York City, but also in art and culture.

After the tragic consequences and betrayals of Coup de Coeur, Calix, Aubrey, Ethaniel, and Lawton are now trapped in Rosehill, the ancestral home where Calix spent many summers with his mother, Lily Addington. While the walls of Rosehill are closely protected by wards and other defenses, the house contains many memories, some of which Calix would rather forget. But Rosehill’s secrets — and his mother’s — are about to come to light. And the question of who his mother really was forces Calix to understand more about her and himself. Are Oracle powers truly destructive, as Lily claimed, or was she seeking something else? And the demimonde, a strange realm between realms, beckons with curled finger...and it’s aimed directly at Ethaniel. The lure of that unknown place, and its power, is embedded deep in Harkness family history; a history full of death, destruction, and exile. Ethaniel was warned long ago by his father that his mother’s family would always try to claim him, but he is discovering the demimonde is a far more tempting, and frightening, siren. While Aubrey tries to hold them all together and protect those closest to him with his own abilities, his personal demons are threatening to burst forth. Can he keep Calix and Ethaniel safe while finding a way to defeat the Golden Order? It feels impossible, and yet he must do it. Failure is not an option.

The Oracle fears what else may be hidden in the halls and walls of Rosehill. The tailor is trapped in the demimonde. The curator knows the way forward means pain and blood. As barriers break between reality and other realms, and alliances crack and form anew, Calix, Ethaniel, and Aubrey know they cannot survive the horrors beset upon them alone. Magnus, Aubrey’s mentor and the Head Curator of the Magnificus Collectio, is a powerful mage but even he knows the demimonde is not a place to tread if you’re mortal. Enlisting the help of a very old (and rather odd) colleague means revealing secrets he’d kept for so long. And placing that colleague in the direct line of danger surfaces more than mere guilt. Ethaniel’s fate lies in all their hands… but Uzala, the Mapmaker, has plans of their own. A Harkness in the demimonde is a unique opportunity, and one it will not squander. And while the race to bring Ethaniel back traps them all once more in the walls of Rosehill, Aubrey’s chance to prove himself brings up uncomfortable—and perhaps deadly—family secrets and parts of his past that he has no intention of speaking aloud. But like always, magic and the demimonde have other plans. Lawton is caught in his own inner turmoil, but the Golden Order is still searching for him. And he is still harboring the malingering spirit of Calix’s mother, Lily. His fate has always been tied to Calix, but now he has the chance to understand who he is, and who he could become. In the final book of the Oracle, Tailor, Curator trilogy, danger is faced head-on, vows to protect are fortified, and the lives of more then the trio are at stake. Their world, and their understanding of magic, will never be the same.

Elsie’s a small town with a lot of heart. Isn’t that how most small town romance stories begin? But this isn’t any love story. These five stories cross paths and connections, age, gender, sexuality, and different kinds of relationships. Stories like that of Harriet, the owner of Twelfth Moon perfumery and adopted mother to her nephew, Nu. Harriet always figured she’d be single for the rest of her life, but Dela Atwater appearing in her shop one blustery autumn day sparks something within her. A bit of romance and longing she’d long thought buried. And what about Nu, Harriet’s nephew? He’s quickly falling for Miles, who works in the coffee shop next door to Twelfth Moon. The shop is owned by Miles’s brother, Jones, who has his own ideas about sex and lust and romance (or lack thereof). Across town, Maeve is learning how to exist as a widower but when they meet Evie, a spark is lit. And Yuri, Nu’s best friend, is anxiously awaiting the holidays so he can see his girlfriend, Beckett, once more. It's about hope and joy and queer love in so many shapes and forms, from the author of the dark fantasy/romance novel Wilderwood ("...will shatter readers’ expectations with its bewitching complexities..." - The BookLife Prize).

Paperback Price:
A charming - but slightly strange - accidental first meeting at a skate park. Opposites attract. And technically...one works for the other one. Zan has a fast mouth and a lot of technical know-how, so dating hasn't always been easy. He'd set aside any notion of a romantic life to work and spend as much time outdoors as possible. Biking, canoeing, skiing, you name it. He's never tried skateboarding, even though he stops by the skate park near the trail where he bikes to watch boards - and sometimes people - flip, or crash hard. Instead of skater-watching, Zan meets Deacon. Deacon's odd and interesting, and it turns out, the head of the small indie press of which Zan is a huge fan. Rochester Press puts out the weird and erotic, the dark and mischievous, and finally meeting the head of the press is great. Maybe not so great - Deacon has just hired the printing company Zan works for, and now Zan's in charge of all the new jobs. It'll be fine. Except Zan (and his big mouth) immediately asks Deacon out on a date. And Deacon accepts. There's no fraternization clause in Zan's contract, or Deacon's. It should be fine. A high-heat novella about two quirky people who would never seek out a date via online platforms or at speed dating. But their weird seems to compliment each other. Add in a romantic picnic date, a rainstorm, and a love of books and the outdoors, and Zan and Deacon might just carry away your heart.

And Holland just has, so now he's trying to find a way to upend the inherent toxic masculinity and misogyny in the calendars of old. Then the idea hits him: why not show off local heroes, ones who work hard and don't always get the recognition they deserve. And make it all queer. When Caiden, a landscaper who happens to be helping Holland's adopted grandmother with her yard, shows up for the calendar gig, he and Holland instantly connect. Caiden wasn't expecting that, but he's also not one to toss aside an opportunity when he sees it. Holland is his kind of guy, and the charity the calendar is supporting helped his sister get care when she was ill as a kid. So it's a win-win in his book. Working together is easy. Asking Holland on a date makes Caiden feel like a teenager all over again, but in that nervous-excited, good kind of way. And a night of mini golf and pool makes them both realize there's something more to this spark.

However, when she's assigned a bodyguard after surviving a near-fatal robbery, she finds herself chafing against the sudden loss of her independence — the damsel-in-distress role has never been her style. And close protection officer Beck Harris isn't too fond of her new charge, either. As a bodyguard to celebrities, Beck has spent years perfecting her cool composure around the rich and famous, but when forced to handle a wily, superficial actress intent on pushing her boundaries, her professionalism is pushed to its limits.

But Gabriel is not the perfect boy Treasa imagines. He harbors dark secrets and self-destructive tendencies. Still, Treasa might be able to accept Gabriel’s baggage if he can accept who she longs to be.
