XOXO NIGHTTEMPEST

Shelter Me: The Second City Tales #1- 

Greg Courtenay has spent his entire life trying to step out of his father's shadow.  Most Royal vampires would kill to be a Manager under the Queen, but not Greg.  As part of the younger generation of vampires, his goal in life is to better his future and the future of their youth.  His lifework is spent at a shelter for wayward vampires in desperate need during the darkness invading New York City.  But no matter how much his heart wants to help the unfortunate, he yearns for a mate more.

Trey is a human-turned vamp dealer on the run from traitorous criminals.  Set loose in New York City with no where to hide, he plays the part of a homeless vamp to seek sanctuary in the SoHo shelter.  Once he meets Greg, his life takes a more dangerous turn.  Greg is his mate; the man he's been searching for his entire life. But does Trey give in to the passion and love he so desperately wants and selfishly put his mate in danger?  Or does he run with no plan and leave his mate heartbroken and lost once more?

Taming Fire -

Bad boy, Xavier makes his last strike as far as his mother, the Archangel Elsanah, is concerned.  With the permission of the Creator, she punishes him to battle with both his demon and angel halves.  He will have no choice, but to better his life and his heart, and stay in line or he'll be a danger to himself and others.  And not in a way that formerly served for his entertainment.

Emile is a broke college student with a drive to get in shape.  Having been kicked to the curb by his parents after coming out, he was left to pay for school and a roof over his head, all on his own.  After being let go from a job he desperately needed, Emile finds the creepiest, if not perfect opportunity to make money as a housekeeper at Raven House.  An old, Gothic manor in the city's historical district, the owners request that he lives there as part of his work, claiming he'll never know when he's going have to clean up a mess.

As this simple request starts to be more than he bargained for, Emile and Xavier go head to head, in a battle that will shake the very structure of heaven and hell.   All he ever wanted to do was learn and get a job, but Emile finds out there are scarier things than finals, being broke, and nightmares.  For instance, the nightmares are real.

Heart For Trade -

The year is 2512 and the world has been torn apart by war--leaving people struggling to rebuild a life without the comfort of their addiction to technology or the safety of a government to rely on - left with trading goods as their only means of currency. Self governing villages have sprung up all across the lands. Small bands of families and friends trying to survive with only the basic necessities and their own skills to get them by. Sometimes villages have nothing - left to fend for themselves or die trying.

Ryan's village is starving and their homes can't withstand another winter. If they can't come up with food or better shelter, they will all die. So when his father, their leader, declares after a tough battle with himself that he is trading Ryan to save his village. Ryan is heartbroken but loves his family enough to endure being given away to save them all. 

Samuel is the leader of Rineway village - a mysterious place the other villages have never heard of. In a time of absolute poverty, Samuel and his people rely on their secrecy to hide the wealth of treasures their village guards underground. Happening upon a man for trade, a rarity, Samuel answers the ad with hopes for something more than just a labor hand. 

With secrets, an old government mission still at hand and a world so bleak it's hard to dream of the light, can love really prevail?

Life is good for Oliver Caldwell. A millionaire CEO for Caldwell Industries, Olly is the epitome of a playboy bachelor, but his tastes are a little specific, his needs a little darker.  Estranged for the most part from his parents, raised without affections or love from either of them, Oliver draws his strength from the control he has over others, specifically in bed. When he happens upon a beautiful young man in his own bar one night, Oliver thinks he’s bringing home nothing more than a prime piece for his sheets, but that is far from the truth.

What starts out a steamy night of cuffs and submission leads into something that opens both their eyes. When Olly wakes up to find Tate gone the next morning, the hunt begins. Suddenly Tate becomes everything to Oliver and he refuses to let anything come between them, bosses, threats, or business included.  The heat only gets hotter when Oliver finds out that his arch enemy in the business world is after both of them.  Forced into an underground world of mob wars and creatures of the night, two mortals find out how much they are willing to stake to be with each other. How much trust are they willing to put in creatures that were previously only make-believe?

This installment of the Vampire Series takes you back to before Cade’s tale and gives you a look at what happened before the death of Cade’s parents.  What really happened and how did it go down?

My Love Is Your Love (2012 Literotica.com Valentine’s Day Contest Story Winner)

Sheriff Remy La Croix has always wanted a man to spend Valentine’s Day with, a man he could warm by the fire, and cook a nice dinner for, but once again he was left on the holiday of love without a date.  Finn had been in Bermont less than twenty four hours when he found himself in Jackie’s Diner on the holiday he hated the most.  Only a reminder of how his ex-boyfriend had walked out of his life for another man, Finn loathed Valentine’s Day with a passion. 

A packed diner with the only open seat across from him left Finn with a blind dinner date, one Sheriff Remy LaCroix.  Instant attraction, a magical pot pie, and one heck of a snow storm lead to an adventure of the heart, an adventure that might have been helped along by a certain back room cook. 

Chris was new to Bermont, but as a line cook in Jackie’s diner, he was a pro. Year after year, he hid his identity to help the mortals find their true loves, but finding love for himself was not so easy.  Feeling hopeless after another year with no one to call his own, Chris is surprised to be given a task that might give him the very thing he’s always craved. Love.
