New Release: BETHROTHED IN FURY by Devon McCormack





 BETROTHED IN FURY

Devon McCormack

Release Date: June 4 


Meet Devon McCormack:

Devon McCormack grew up in the Georgia suburbs with his two younger brothers and an older sister. At a very young age, he spun tales the old fashioned way, lying to anyone and everyone he encountered. He claimed he was an orphan. He claimed to be a king from another planet. He claimed to have supernatural powers. He has since harnessed this penchant for tall tales by crafting worlds and characters that allow him to live out whatever fantasy he chooses. Devon is an out and proud queer man living in Atlanta, Georgia.


Devon's body of work ranges from erotica to young adult, so readers should check the synopses of his books before purchasing so that they know what they're getting into.

LOGAN


Charming. Sexy as sin. Out of his damn mind.

That sums up Killian Lorde, one of the most powerful crime bosses in Fury's underworld.

Since his father passed, he's stepped into his role as head of the family business.

A role which I, the golden boy of the Wilde clan, more than understand. Forced by birth into a life of corruption and moral bankruptcy, I exist for one purpose: to protect my family at all costs.

Only this time, the price is my freedom.

Unbeknownst to me, to maintain my family's alliance with the Lordes, I've been betrothed to Killian.

I've always known him to be a bastard, but this arrangement brings out the worst in him.

He's a monster. Pure, unfettered evil.

He doesn't just want to marry me. He wants to control and possess me, and when his curiosity becomes obsession, we struggle for power as he demands the one thing I can't give him.

My complete and total surrender.

Betrothed Fury by Devon McCormick is an exciting and gripping read that kept me hooked from start to finish. 

The story follows Logan and Killian, the firstborn sons of two mafia families, as they navigate family loyalty and a tense agreement between them. 

Killian was determined, Logan was stubborn, and I really enjoyed watching them slowly break down each other’s walls. Plenty of spice with sizzling moments ! 
The moments of trust, care, and their push pull antics made this a great read.

Devon’s writing always pulls me in, this book is no exception!

New Release: TEXAS PRIDE by Kindle Alexander



 TEXAS PRIDE 

Kindle Alexander

Release Date: June 4


Meet Kindle Alexander:

Best Selling Author Kindle Alexander is an innovative writer who writes romance in the male/male genre. It's always a surprise to see what's coming next!

Usually, I try for funny. Humor is a major part of my life - I love to laugh, and it seems to be the thing I do in most situations - regardless of the situation, but jokes are a tricky deal. I don't want to offend anyone and jokes tend to offend. So instead I'm going to tell you about Kindle.

I tragically lost my sixteen year old daughter to a drunk driver. She had just been home, it was early in the night and I heard the accident happen. I'll never forget that moment. The sirens were immediate and something inside me just knew. I left my house, drove straight to the accident on nothing more than instinct. I got to be there when my little girl died - weirdly, I consider that a true gift from above. She didn't have to be alone.

That time in my life was terrible. It's everything you think it would be times about a billion. I love that kid. I loved being her mother and I loved watching her grow into this incredibly beautiful person, both inside and out. She was such a gift to me. To have it all ripped away so suddenly broke me.

Her name was Kindle. Honest to goodness - it was her name and she died a few weeks before Amazon released their brand new Kindle ereader. She had no idea it was coming out and she would have finally gotten her name on something! Try finding a ruler with the name Kindle on it.. It never happened.

Through the course of that crippling event I was lucky enough to begin to write with a dear friend in the fan fiction world of Facebook. She got me through those dark days with her unwavering support and friendship. There wasn't a time she wasn't there for me. We've built a world where Kindle lives and stands for peace, love and harmony. It's its own kind of support group. I know without question I wouldn't be here today without her.

Blurb:

When two-time Academy Award winner Austin Grainger walks away from Hollywood at the height of his fame, the world thinks he’s lost his mind. But after years of flashing cameras and relentless headlines, Austin wants something real. On fifteen hundred quiet Texas acres, he finally finds peace. That is, until the rancher next door makes his presence known.


Kitt Kelly isn’t the typical Texas rancher. Young, sharp, and fiercely devoted to the land his family built, he’s spent most of his life keeping one dangerous secret: he’s gay. In a community where reputation and tradition run deep, coming out would cost him everything.

When the sexiest man alive moves in next door, the spark between them is impossible to ignore. But giving in could expose Kitt’s secret and threaten the legacy he’s sworn to protect.

Now they must decide: play it safe or risk everything for a love neither of them saw coming.

Texas Pride is an award-winning contemporary MM romance about two strong men, small-town secrets, and a love worth fighting for. A standalone novel.

This is a beautiful story about two people from completely different worlds who slowly come to realize that it doesn’t matter where you come from or what you do for a living — what truly matters is following your heart.

I completely fell into these pages and didn’t want to leave.

Kitt is working hard to bring new ideas and modern changes to his ranch, something his father would never have accepted. His methods are proving successful, but getting everyone else on board isn’t easy. He’s an extremely hardworking cowboy who has little time left for love… until a new neighbour arrives.

Austin has never worked the land before, but after growing tired of the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, he decides to return to his hometown and buy land of his own. From there, the lovely journey between Kitt and Austin begins.

This book is wonderfully written, giving vivid glimpses of rural America — the smell of the horses, the hard work of ranch life, and a love story built slowly on trust, understanding, and connection.

A bake-off between enemies…what could go wrong?

Mateo

Can you believe this? Haverton’s football hero is opening a bagel shop next to my pizzeria and he’s selling—wait for it—pizza bagels. The nerve! 

And Rob Vilmer isn’t above using his fame to attract clients. It’s annoying and yes, I’m feeling a little crusty about the situation. My temper has gotten me into a few binds, but a pizza-bagel war? This is a first. 

I’m gonna crush him. 

Rob

After years of playing in the pros, I’m beat. All I want is to open a bagel shop in the town that gave me a shot at the big time. I’d love some peace and quiet too, however, I won’t be getting that with Mateo Cavaretti next door. 

Geez, I can’t believe I had a crush on that guy in college. Sure, he’s still incredibly good-looking, but he’s a grouch. And while I like my business partner’s idea of settling our dispute with a classic bake-off, Mateo and I can’t be in the same room without fireworks exploding. 

Okay, some of those fireworks are extra sexy and that might be a problem. 

Or is all truly fair in love and pizza…and bagels?

All’s Fair in Love and Pizza is an MM grumpy/sunshine, small-town romance featuring former teammates, a culinary challenge, and a HEA worth fighting for. 

*A portion of All's Fair in Love and Pizza was originally included in the Delicious Anthology. This new version has doubled in length to over 40k words and a whole lot of bake-off shenanigans! 

EXCERPT:

“Whoa. Wait up.” I held my hand like a stop sign and stepped into his space. Bad move. I had to tilt my head to meet his eyes now, and that was weird. I was six one—not exactly a small dude, but that asshole had sprouted at least another two inches since college. I’d bet he was six foot six. And yes, he was an asshole. I hadn’t thought so until a minute ago, but now… “You can’t sell pizza bagels next to a pizza parlor.”

“I can’t?” 

“No, you can’t. It’s brand assimilation or something. It’s illegal.” 

“Illegal?” he scoffed. “I don’t think so, Mateo. Bagels are bagels, pizza is pizza. But I was only kid—”

“Yeah, but a pizza bagel is a piece of dough that’s dressed up to look like something it isn’t. It’s shady advertising, not to mention blatant customer poaching. Sell all the bagels you want, but don’t sell pizza bagels. That’s a great way to get off to a rotten start. You know what I’m saying?” 

Rob regarded me for a long moment. “Are you threatening me?”

“Threaten is a strong word. I’m suggesting you do the right thing.”

“Or what?” 

I snort-laughed in my most derisive, supremely irritating fashion. It was the kind of insincere and dismissive gesture that had pissed off opponents on the field years ago and still probably got under my cousins’ skin. Nothing to brag about, but hey…I’d learned how to play with the big kids early. Rule number one: Never show fear. Rule number two: Never back down or give someone else the upper hand. 

“I ’spose you’ll find out.” I turned on my heels, tray clenched to my chest as I sauntered next door.

Yeah, yeah. Look, maybe Rob wasn’t the enemy. Maybe it was a quirky act of fate that he’d happened to lease the property next to mine. The one I wanted.

Fortune had shined upon him and that was nice and all, but Boardwalk Pizza was an institution in this town. We were the experts, we were the ones with decades of experience, and we weren’t going anywhere. 

So Rob could shove his goddamn pizza bagel up his ass.




This audiobook is priceless! I laughed and smiled so much throughout it.  
The back-and-forth between Rob and Mateo is super entertaining. Rob's trying to launch his bagel shop, while Mateo's busy with his Italian family's pizza place.
  Their rivalry is just hilarious, and they always end up crossing paths. 
 Eventually, they start a relationship, thanks in part to Mateo's funny Italian family, which adds even more layers of humour. 
Narration by Michael Dean was exceptional, Lane Hayes writing is always first class!

about the author:

Lane Hayes  lives in sunny Southern California with her amazing husband, who thankfully doesn’t mind cooking, and their fabulous fox red Labrador, George, who’s pure mischief. Both provide oodles of inspiration for the low-angst, humorous books Lane loves to write.

She’s been telling stories about sexy, funny, sometimes geeky and quirky men who find love for a dozen years now and loving every minute. In her previous life, she sat at a desk and dealt with numbers, so yes…romance is much more satisfying!

Lane loves tea, travel, and chocolate…in any order. Add a book and she’s set!
