EWB IS OUT NOW!
EWB IS OUT NOW!
It’s a 97,000-word spicy gay romance where two guys who cannot stand the sight of each other agree to a mutually beneficial physical relationship and of course they fall in love!
BLURB:
Marshall
I hate Valentine Tye.
I’ve hated him since we were ten years old. I hate everything he is, everything he stands for. Even the mention of his name gets my back up.
And when I see him?
My blood boils. My jaw clenches and my hands curl into fists. That’s how much I hate him.
I want to cause him pain. I want to hold him down and actually hurt him.
And if that’s not bad enough, that’s exactly what he wants me to do to him.Valentine
I know what people think of me. I know what they assume. They all think I’m some spoiled rich guy who’s had everything handed to him.
They don’t know me at all.
Behind my carefully constructed walls is an emptiness so dark it scares men away. I like pain. I like being used. For some messed up reason, it validates me. I don’t need love or affection or, hell forbid, emotional attachment.
What I need is a man who hates me, a man who despises me.
A man like Marshall Wise.
Because never in a million years would he ever feel anything for me.
Right?BUY OR BORROW ON KU
PAPERBACK AND HARDCOVER OPTIONS
There will be THREE physical editions available! Each edition will be in paperback (at all retailers) and hardcover (at signings or through me directly).
The internal file/book will be the same…EXCEPTThe ‘after dark’ edition will have some pretty men images at the front of the book.However, those images will also be made into postcards which will be available with the other hardcover editions, at signings or through me directly. These postcards will also be swag at signings etc. And available to purchase through my store (when it’s up and running – hopefully soon!)All three of these covers were made by me. And I gotta say… I love them and I’m proud of them. GAH!I’ll have all the links for you soon!

Touch the Lightning release day! Storm Boys Series is now complete!
THE STORM BOYS SERIES IS NOW COMPLETE!
Thank you to everyone who has joined Tully and Jeremiah on this crazy adventure!
BLURB:
Without a working office, Jeremiah is tasked with repairing the automated weather station on Oxley Island. It’s remote, only accessible by boat, and with there being a good chance of crocodiles, he’s dreading it.
Tully, on the other hand, can’t wait.
With a boat licence, his dad’s boat, and two days alone with Jeremiah—and with thunderstorms likely—to Tully, it’s another perfect adventure.
But their plans go awry when Jeremiah’s research gets far too close for comfort. Thirty years ago, the day his life was touched by lightning, he was changed forever.
It’s about to change again, only this time he’s determined to set things right.
You can find Touch The Lightning HERE
or check out the whole Storm Boys Series HERE
PAPERBACKS – ORIGINAL OR ILLUSTRATED
I’ve been playing around with some illustrated covers lately, and when I had some character illustrations done for Tully and Jeremiah, I loved them so much I asked the artist (the very talented Christine Marie) if we could make them into covers… and she said yes! The original covers (made by Paper & Sage) are just as gorgeous, and all editions will start appearing at your favourite retailer soon – if not already.
I’ll provide the Amazon links for ease/speed but if you have another preferred retailer, please give the title plus ‘alternative cover’ a quick search in their search function.
Illustrated Paperback Links:
Original Paperback Links: (these are universal links, select Paperback)
And let’s not forget the gorgeous prequel, Second Chance at First Love
Original cover by N.R. Walker. Illustrated cover by Ashley Quick That’s all for now – thank you for reading this far LOL
Quick update: My WIP is at 80K words and it was supposed to be 65K words completed but they’re not done yet so I have no clue when I should finish it. Hoping for a Sept-Oct release. It’s titled EWB (Enemies with Benefits). Will update you all again soon!
Until then!

Paul Morgan has been running his luxury camping tour business in Kakadu National Park for the last five years. Taking small groups glamping, hiking, climbing, and swimming. It’s been a busy five years, a hard five years, as he tried to forget the man he left behind.Derek Grimes pushes people away—a self-preservation reflex. Because they can’t break his heart if he breaks theirs first, right? Five years on, lost and lonely, he tracks down the one and only love of his life. Maybe seeing how Paul had moved on will help Derek move on too . . .Paul can’t believe it when a familiar name pops up on his client list, and Derek can’t believe how good Paul looks, or just how happy living his dream job has made him. The spark between them never waned, but five years on, they’ve learned a few things about themselves and what they want.They could have everything they ever dreamed of—if they’re prepared to trust each other. Because a second chance at first love comes but once in a lifetime.There are four books in this series. The prequel, and three main books. The prequel is Derek and Paul’s story. The other three books are Tully and Jeremiah’s story. The audiobooks are being narrated by Glen Lloyd.
You can pre-order all books now!

Sorry for this blog being mostly inactive. I have a newsletter (that I also suck at updating LOL) but I feel to update both together is a bit spammy. I only send newsletters with news on new releases or super sales; sometimes months apart.

FREEBIE ALERT! One Day Only…
Point of No Return is 10 years old today!
This book has been through a lot: two different publishers, many covers, many editions. I finally got the rights back and had new forever-covers made in 2017… it seems like a lifetime ago.
Matt and Kira were my first original fiction boys that I ever wrote. I fully intended to write another fanfiction but these boys in my head were new to me and had their own story to tell. And I’d had many fanfic readers telling me I should write original fiction – so I did.
And Matt and Kira were born.
Ten whole years ago. What a crazy ride it’s been.
For their 10th birthday, I wanted to share this book with everyone. It will be free for ONE DAY ONLY!
And it’s already the 28th in Australia so grab it now!
Oh, and it’s whispersynced for audio – so if you love audio, grab it while it’s super cheap. Narrated by Sean Crisden, and he did an amaaaazing job.
AMAZON BUY LINK
UPSIDE DOWN IS JUST 99C!!
To celebrate Asexual Awareness Week, Upside Down is just 99c (based on Amazon USD, sorry). It’ll be back to full price by Monday so be quick to grab it!

Learning Curve is OUT NOW!
AMAZON BUY OR BORROW ON KU
I’m so excited to have Vincent and Cobey out in the world! The reception has really blown me away – Learning Curve went to #1 in 10 countries within 24 hours of release! And it went to #6 in the entire Australia Amazon store, and #8 in the entire Canadian store. Just craaaazy!!
I sent out the newsletter with the buylinks in it last week, and I’ll add them here now. I really hate the idea of over-spamming people and the idea of sending a newsletter AND a blog post makes me feel extra spammy LOL So I’m sorry if you’re getting both.
But I didn’t want my blog readers to miss out.
There are also two different versions of paperbacks available!
You can choose from either the standard pink cover which matches the ebook, or you can choose the special edition illustrated cover! The internal content is exactly the same. We just thought it would be a fun inclusion for the series – and both covers turned out amazing! As you can see from this photo I took, both covers are faaaabulous!
You can find them at Amazon, or check your favourite online retailer. These were distributed through IngramSpark and therefore will be appearing soon at stores like B&N, Target Online, and Walmart Online (not in-store) and most other book retailers. These links are to amazon:
PINK EDITION
ILLUSTRATED EDITION
Okay that’s all for today! I hope everyone has been keeping well 🙂 I’ll be at a book signing in Melbourne this coming weekend, which I’m most excited about. Then I need to hide in my writing cave for a while and finish my current WIP. Please take care, and stay safe!
Until next time…
