Stop Dragon My Heart Around - Rachel Langella

Genre: Fantasy, Romance LGBTQ+ Category: Gay Reviewer: Tony Get It On Amazon About The Book Sometimes Fate has a bizarre sense of humor. Or at least it seems that way to Gus, owner of the Rainbow Room, Asheville’s main hangout for gay paranormals.

He found all of it amusing, until his fated mate walks in and suddenly the twists aren’t so funny any longer! Bear Hickes is a mage who specializes in fire, but life has … Read more

Hexes and Horns - Rowan McAllister

Genre: Fantasy, Paranormal, Romance LGBTQ+ Category: Gay Reviewer: Tony Get It On Amazon About The Book Ryan O’Byrne has rules: 1) no using his magic, 2) no getting dragged back into his family’s craziness, and 3) no dating supernaturals of any kind, especially shifters … in other words, nothing and no one who will tempt him to break rule number one. But what if the gorgeous wall of muscle he can’t seem to stay away from just happens to be a shifter? Well, it is only a short-term thing, and he isn’t a master of denial for nothing. Leo Holt … Read more

by
Purgatory Playhouse

Genre: Romance, Fantasy, Comedy LGBTQ+ Category: MM Gay Reviewer: Tony Get It On Amazon About The Book Staging a musical in Purgatory can be absolute hell. Lonnie Coleridge last saw the sun in 1968. Since then, he’s been consigned to Limbo, still wearing the same tie-dyed T-shirt and bell-bottomed jeans he had on when he left his life behind. He and others like him have one chance each year at redemption: produce a show for the Greek pantheon. Whoever pleases this very specific—and temperamental—fan group could earn the right to move on. But after a literal act of god (*cough* Hermes *cough*) … Read more

The target’s too young, too pretty, and too appealing for comfort, and the clients are offering more threats than cash.

Linden’s on the run, and the human realm’s a … Read more
