Sympathy
A Halloween Romance from JCP Books, available 10/31/2009
It took Anthony Potosi years to recover from the accident that claimed his father's life, and doctors told him he'd never walk again. He proved them wrong. Now he's back at the landscaping business, Potosi and Sons, he shares with his two older brothers—but they seem more interested in getting Anthony to sell out his share than in celebrating his recovery.
The oil-and-water relationship between Anthony and his brothers is hardly new. Even when they were kids, Sal and Chip delighted in terrorizing their baby brother with stories like "The Hook," complete with visits to the abandoned Victorian a half mile down the two-lane.
Now Anthony towers over his brothers...but he's still the youngest. When the new owner of the Hook House calls in an order, they take a little too much satisfaction in sending him to face his old fears. And learning to open up again to trust, desire—and maybe even love—is far scarier than The Hook. Read the first chapter!
Available now from Dreamspinner Press:
Sports psychologist Kip Rigsbee feels like an outsider, not part of the players' circle and not accepted by the coaches of the college team he's been hired to help. But that hasn't kept him from feeling the gravitational pull of defensive coordinator Greg Browne, despite the fact that Greg dismisses Kip's methods as "motivational bullsh*t." An accident brings the unacknowledged attraction between the two men to the surface, but the common ground of their erotic connection may not be enough to help Kip overcome Greg's determination to keep his personal life separate from his job.

Mair is the half-faerie son of the goblin king's sister, a product of rape at the hands of their enemy, the sidhe, and the last person that the goblin horde wants to see sit upon the throne. When the king is killed in battle and all of his sons die squabbling for the crown, Mair finds himself the sole heir to the throne--a position that he neither wants nor is likely to survive. To make matters worse, he is presented with a slave to see to his 'needs'--a mute sidhe soldier captured in battle--and Mair is again reminded of how much he resembles the enemy.
Forced to share his bed with the bound and naked slave in order to keep up pretenses, Mair suffers a moment of weakness and succumbs to the desires of the flesh, never imagining the consequences of this one thoughtless act.

A quirky holiday romance from Josh Lanyon!
Coming December 1st from Samhain Publishing
Three years ago, a scandal cost antiquarian “book hunter” James Winter everything that mattered to him: his job, his lover, and his self-respect. But now the rich and unscrupulous Mr. Stephanopoulos has a proposition. A previously unpublished Christmas book by Charles Dickens has turned up in the hands of an English chemistry professor by the name of Sedgwick Crisparkle. Mr. S. wants that book at any price -- and he needs James to get it for him. There’s just one catch. James can’t tell the nutty professor who the buyer is.
Actually, two catches because the nutty Professor Crisparkle turns out to be totally gorgeous -- and on the prowl. Faster than you can say, “Old Saint Nick,” James is mixing business with pleasure -- and in real danger of forgetting that this is just a holiday romance.
And then, with the worst possible timing, Sedgwick discovers the truth. James has been a very bad boy. Is there any chance Santa will bring him what he most wants on Christmas morning?

New Jarheads now available!
Back when their relationship was still new and a little unstable, Rock and Rig knew how to tie it up and fight hard. When an out of control argument leaves Rock living on base for a while, it takes some well-meaning friends to get the two of them back together.
Rig and Rock may be stubborn and hot-tempered, but they know what they have is worth the trouble. Can they find a way to work out their demons in a more constructive way than fighting? Rock thinks he has an answer that will work for both of them in this Jarheads story.
Rig, Rock and Dick are on their way to a very special graduation party. A young man who Rock mentored out of his punk kid ways has made good on his youthful promise, and the Jarheads couldn’t be more proud. All those young people make Rock feel a little old, though, and it's up to his men to make him feel young again. Can Dick and Rig live up to the challenge?
The proceeds from this Charity Sip will be donated to the Matthew Shepard Foundation.

Quis Custodiet - Book Five in the Administration Series
by Manna Francis
248 pages - ISBN 978-1-934081-12-9
Where are all the good guys?
No protests, no bombings, no subversion. Is it possible that in one part of the European Administration at least, almost all the citizens are happy with their lot in life? It seems unlikely. When the numbers don't add up at the Athens branch of the Investigation and Interrogation Division, Para-investigator Toreth is sent there from New London to review their procedures. With sunshine, a less-than-urgent assignment, and hosts who seem anxious to ensure that he has a good time, it seems like the perfect chance for a holiday on Administration time.
Or it would if he didn't have to leave Sara and the rest of his regular team behind. Working alone for once, as the investigation becomes more complex Toreth finds himself surrounded by people he can't trust. Worse than that, he has to leave Warrick on his own in New London, a situation further complicated by the reappearance of an old adversary.
The fifth book in the Administration series contains the novella Quis Custodiet and seven short stories, following the careers of para-investigator and inveterate trouble-magnet Val Toreth and ambitious, if occasionally blinkered, corporate Keir Warrick in the near-future dystopia of the European Administration.
