The Librarian's Rake


Unlike most of my covers The Librarian's Rake isn't drawn. Since it's a contemporary (a tad less yaoified than usual) I figured I'd try something different.



The Librarian's Rake Blurb: 

Opposites might attract, but is acting on that attraction wise?
Librarian Tristan Cooper can’t steer clear of sexy, motorcycle-riding bad boy Phillip—the man is hot—but Phillip is bound to nd quiet, bookish Tristan boring, like all Tristan’s boyfriends. Tristan yearns to explore his wild side, the part of himself he’s only allowed into his fantasies, and maybe rakish Phillip is just what he needs to feel free.

Sexperienced hairdresser Phillip is more of a believer in happy endings than happily ever afters. Experience has taught him not to hope for more— until he meets sweet, vulnerable Tristan, who seems genuinely interested in his heart. But Phillip can’t trust enough to see himself as a man Tristan might want for more than a night.

With the help of a pair of matchmaking grandfathers, Tristan and Phillip might and the courage to step beyond their comfort zones and discover what has been missing from their lives….

BDSM littered throughout my work


BDSM

One of the reasons why I write BDSM (other than my own filter and biases) is because I want to validate all expressions of it. There are infinite BDSM needs and countless ways to express them. My characters involved in BDSM are on various parts of the spectrum. 

Let's begin with characters from my second official BDSM novel that was released at the end of May.

Orion: We see him a bit in Lock and Key. Someone abused Orion’s trust during exchanging power. Orion always wanted to play harder and harder his need for the peace subspace gave him was consuming. The violation he experience broke something inside of him, and he’s decided to stop all attempts of BDSM.

Hunter: He’s a dominant with nothing to prove. Though he longs to guide a sub to reach their full potential, his lover is not submissive. They have an open relationship, but doing scenes here and there doesn’t satisfy him anymore.

Marcus:  He likes to refer to himself as a sadist with a side of masochist.  Marcus likes to make it hurt and share in the sensation. He aches to be the sub Hunter needs but that’s just not who he is. Though since he’s polyandrous maybe they can just find a third, someone who can bridge the gap between he and Hunter.





Entwined Dreams: Book Two
An abusive Dom robbed Orion Gordon of his love of BDSM, destroying his confidence and leaving him unsure he’ll ever find peace through submission to another. Still, deep inside, his longing continues.
Marcus Sadir loves Hunter Dixon, yet can’t be the one thing Hunter truly desires: a sub to control. And Hunter can’t find satisfaction in the sadistic aspects of the BDSM lifestyle, while Marcus thrives on inflicting and sharing pain. When Marcus convinces Hunter they should find a third on a permanent basis, they discover Orion might be the key to bridging their differences and joining them on a deeper level.
But they must help Orion move past his trauma enough for him to enjoy new facets of BDSM and kink again. Their journey toward becoming whole—together—won’t be without challenges. Can Orion trust enough to try again?

Andrew Cohen: wants control, to have the order of things reinforced. In Lock and Key, he’s new to exploring BDSM and excited to learn and experiment with partners. His ex refused to explore it with him and held him back from being who he was meant to be so he shies away from coupling up.

Zack Davis: Discovered his interest BDSM early on.  Zack wants the opportunity to prove himself worthy and to be seen. He’s only 18 when the story starts but has known he wanted BDSM to be his world since he was a kid. (Yes, there are people who know at a very early age. I was 4). All his energy is devoted to making his BDSM dreams a reality.

 Tied Together



Robin Strider: He’s a sub through and through. Robin has strength and determination and a fierce need to serve others.  He derives much of his sexual satisfaction through the practice.

Josh Strider: He is demi-sexual (must have a connection with the person to feel an attraction) Demi-sexual is a spectrum and Josh is probably on the part where he literally only sees Robin. He has no other sexual preferences just Robin. He dominates Robin because that’s what his lover needs. His enjoyment of dominance is the satisfaction Robin obtains from it.

Happy Holidays


Dare: sees BDSM as pure play. Something fun and spicy that gives him a bit of control. There’s no deep need to submit or dominate. Though he does enjoy the subbie connection he felt with Robin in Tied Together… but he doesn’t devote a lot of mental energy to BDSM.

Zombies Suck

 Cutter: He’s been damaged and hurt by the world. Cutter seeks to give vent to his pain through self-injury.  BDSM as cure! I hear the screams and criticism, but hear me out. BDSM doesn’t necessarily cure anything. HOWEVER it allows the person to stop thinking of an issue and sometimes that mental rest allows them the strength to deal with the problem or think of it in a different way.

Alex: He’s always felt the draw to be a Dominant, but he didn’t feel like one. (Okay, granted this is my commentary that the physical doesn’t have to have anything to do with being dominant or not… though he did go through a secondary transition). He learned, studied and practiced how to exchange power.

These are just some of the ways my characters find satisfaction in BDSM. I believe all expressions of BDSM are valid.

Apps in Secured and Free


Excerpt from Secured and Free w/ Pet App
(Orion is trying to avoid talking about his disastrous night with his best friend and roommate Xander.)
“What’s to tell? Nothing happened.”
Xander shook his head and pulled out his phone. He whispered into it, and Orion got a chirp on his cell.
He glared but opened the message and played the video. A picture of Xander’s sugar glider, Nippet—named after a baby Ewok in Return of the Jedi—started talking to him in a morphed version of Xander’s voice.






Excerpt w/ Sad Cat Diary
He clicked Pause on an amusing video and answered his lover’s call. “Hey, Marc.”
He’d been with Marc Sadir for six years, and living with him for ve. They had met at Entwined and fallen hard. Their needs didn’t quite match, so they maintained an open relationship. But that didn’t mean Marc wasn’t everything to Hunter. It simply meant they were realistic, and he didn’t want Marc to accept less.
Marc purred into the phone, “Hiya, sexy. You already at Entwined?”
“Yup. Oh, later remind me to show you the Sad Cat Diary.” He still smiled at the cat’s perspective of a human’s reality.
“Another Facebook find?”
“Yeah, a YouTube video. I just.... It’s funny. You have to see it.” Hunter chuckled again.
“I will…”


Pretties: I want you to see the video. Even if you already have seen the mournful cats it’ll probably still crack you up!
