Ch. 6 – Vampires Vampires Vampires on Patreon!

Chapter Six of Vampires Vampires Vampires , a M/M/M Victorian vampire romance, is up on Patre♡n! Wherein Malory and Talfryn enjoy a tryst in the monastery ruins.

“Do you consider my debt repaid, sir?”

Malory hesitated. By his own reckoning, Talfryn had more than repaid him. Yet, if Malory admitted as much, Talfryn might well pack up and leave the ruined monastery forever.

Talfryn smiled. “Unless you’d prefer I remain.”

Malory swallowed hard. “Perhaps we might come to some arrangement.”

Talfryn grinned. A beautiful grin. One in which Malory couldn’t help noticing peculiar pointed eye-teeth that leant a feral aspect to the whole.

Yet the sight did not deter him from twining his fingers through those dark curls as Talfryn devoured him in another kiss.

Fiorenzo is a queer fantasy-of-manners romance featuring swordplay, hurt/comfort, and a happily-ever-after.

Fiore has a plan. Find a wealthy elderly gentleman, delight him until the end of his days, and retire on the resulting inheritance. It’s the best outcome a low-born courtesan in the city of Halcyon can hope for.

And it seems a perfect scheme… until a mysterious masked man upends it.

Banished from university after a disastrous duel, Enzo wanders the city searching for scraps of the affection he’s lost. His public mask conceals private agonies. A single night in the company of a courtesan, however, balms his wounded heart, and he finds himself returning again and again to Fiore, revealing more of himself than he’s ever dared before.

Furthermore, and more astonishing still, Fiore finds he returns Enzo’s affections.

But while Fiore wears no mask, he nonetheless has secrets of his own. And when the ghosts of their pasts return to haunt them, only the bond of trust between them will carry them through.

Four Free Queer Romance Books – including Hold Fast!

If you’ve been waiting to read HOLD FAST, QueeRomance Ink has a wonderful opportunity for you to snag a free copy – plus three more queer romance books! – when you join their mailing list.

HOLD FAST is a gay Victorian romance between a whaling harpooner who inherits a baronetcy and the estate agent tasked with turning him from sailor to gentleman.

Morgan Turner, agent to the Winthrop estate, owes everything to his benefactor. When the late baronet’s will tasks him with finding the lost heir and making a gentleman of him, he is determined to succeed.

Thirteen years ago, Evelyn Winthrop ran away to sea. Now that his hated patriarch is dead, the ancestral home he returns to is more shadowed than what he left behind. Ungrateful relations and old friends alike tie a knot of scandal and depravity only a sailor could hope to unravel. And all the while, the siren song of the sea calls him to return at the first opportunity.

Neither anticipated forming more tender attachments.

To Evelyn, his unexpectedly handsome agent is the only thing anchoring him to shore. He sees a captain’s soul within Morgan, and his heart is caught upon the hook of command—if only Morgan would return his affections.

To Morgan, his new employer’s charms threaten to tear down the thorns that have grown around his heart—thorns he cultivated to restrain his unnatural instincts.

When the estate and all who live there are threatened by a maelstrom of bitter secrets and sinister plots, it is down to Morgan to take command, down to Evelyn to hold fast, and down to them both to navigate their own treacherous sea.

Ch. 4 – Vampires Vampires Vampires on Patreon!

Chapter Four of Vampires Vampires Vampires , a M/M/M Victorian vampire romance, is up on Patre♡n! Wherein Octavio encounters a mysterious and handsome stranger.

“Care for a drink?” Octavio asked, thinking of the tavern in the village.

The stranger’s eyes glinted in the moonlight. “I care more for good company.”

“One might have both.”

A wry smile wound its way up the stranger’s cheek. His eye-teeth sat a little larger and further ahead than the rest of his mouth, but by far not the strangest set Octavio had seen since he set foot on English shores. “One might have both, indeed.”

Chapter Three of Vampires Vampires Vampires , a M/M/M Victorian vampire romance, is up on Patre♡n!

A book lay open on the counter by the stove.

“There’s a chapter on receipts for captains of ships, though I daresay my uncle has had his fill of seaworthy fare.”

Octavio privately agreed.

“And another,” Miss Ferndale continued, “called, ‘Read this Chapter, and you will find how expensive a French Cook’s Sauce is.’ Which, if my father had seen it, would put us all in a very different position from the one in which you find us at present, Mr Bo’sun.”

Octavio suppressed a smile. “Just bo’sun, ma’am.”

“As you will.” She glanced about the kitchen. “You would not object to peeling potatoes, bo’sun?”

“Easier’n peelin’ a whale,” Octavio replied.

Miss Ferndale paused in the midst of handing him a knife. “Do you peel whales?”

“Aye,” said Octavio, accepting the knife and approaching the potatoes Abigail set out on the table. “More like an orange than a potato, now that I think on it. But peeled, all right. To strip the blubber off and melt it down into oil,” he added in response to the women’s bewildered looks.

“The peel is more valued than the fruit, then,” said Miss Ferndale, turning to her receipt-book. “Though I suppose it wouldn’t do to candy it.”

Octavio chuckled. He glimpsed the ghost of a smile flickering at the corner of Miss Ferndale’s mouth in reply.
