Devil by the Tail

Caroline Lavoie

In a small town in the Rockies, a mountain looms: the Devil’s Tail. According to local lore, a wicked trickster haunts its slopes, and whoever glimpses it is cursed to lose someone they love.

Alex refuses to believe she’s been cursed. She only ever saw the beast in her nightmares. Even if it’s real, it can’t hurt her because she doesn’t let anyone get too close to her heart. That is, until Amka moves to town. In no time, Alex’s carefully built walls begin to crumble.

But what if Alex’s fear of loss is a curse of its own?

There are a hundred ways to die on the Devil’s Tail, but only one way to break the curse. The path is treacherous, and the beast is waiting.

Nobody Loves an Incubus

Nobody Loves an Incubus

Fangville High, #2

Dylan James

Serge is an incubus—one of the sexiest creatures alive. He has reigned long as king of the school.

But after getting his heart broken by a boy he genuinely liked, Serge is facing a crisis of identity. To continue being who he is only seems to lead to loneliness and heartbreak. Maybe he needs to change, to be truer to himself. The bad boy attitude is just an act, after all.

As he navigates this crisis with the help of Bram, his best friend, he starts receiving a nightly visitor—a cute ghost boy with gorgeous eyes, who appears for only a few minutes in the deepest, darkest depths of the night. Serge is desperate to talk to him, to get to know him, but any attempts at communicating with the ghost are met with silence. The boy doesn’t seem to even know he’s there.

To build that bridge and communicate with the ghost, Serge must do the thing he least wants—enlist the help of Victor and Igor, boys he used to tease mercilessly. It’s a gamble and the stakes are high, especially given the fact that life has taught Serge one thing and one thing only…

Lovey Dovey Deep Thing

Happy Lucky Everything #3

Kieran Frank

Senior year is just endless drama for Jayden.

From Jayden getting irritated with his mom’s scuzzy new boyfriend to the way Gracie flaunts her Christian superiority over Jayden any chance she gets, Jayden always finds life never goes his way. And when new complications come along like his estranged father re-entering the picture, and brings with him a shocking secret, things just get immeasurably worse.

But there is a bright spot in Jayden’s life. Or two, rather. Ollie and Geoff.

It started as a romance with Ollie but was upended when Geoff entered the picture. Now Jayden is faced with a problem—he likes both boys. A lot. When he’s with one boy, he’s always missing the other, and vice versa.

Could he talk both into a poly relationship? Or will he face losing one of them as a potential boyfriend?

The Time Witch

Posted on by Deep Desires Press

The Time Witch

Olivia Strange

England in 1645 is a dangerous time to be a witch. The Civil War is raging, family loyalties are tested, and disease is rampant. Preachers rant against magic and witchcraft and in the days of uncertainty and suspicion many innocents are denounced as witches, putting their lives at risk.

Jessica Jackson is not just a witch, she’s a time-witch, descended from a long line of time-traveling witches originating in ancient Lemuria. With her familiar and lover, a shifter called Titus, at her side, she navigates the perils of Civil War England with her Grimoire, an ancient book of magic garnered from magicians and witches across centuries and civilizations.

In the sleepy Norfolk town of Pendlebury, Jessica settles as a healer and, together with Titus, has a passionate love affair with the schoolmasters' beautiful sister, Constance. But then comes the witchfinder, Gideon Fallowfield, determined to uncover a coven of witches!

In a dangerous game of cat and mouse, Jessica and Titus, pursued by Gideon, travel from one century to another, across continents, to the Sargasso Sea and then ancient Egypt, realizing there is more to his vengeful pursuit than even he is aware of.

Jessica has to use her wiles, her wits, and her magic to survive and save those she loves, if she wishes to settle for good in the one time that matters most to her.

Olivia Strange

Posted on by Deep Desires Press

I'm Olivia Strange and I have been writing ever since I was at university. I have had several jobs over the years, including a flirtation with nursing and then some time in a pathology laboratory, where I spent long hours peering down a microscope. I enjoyed that time in health and science, but the written word was always the most important thing to me, so I became a journalist and am now a short story writer and novelist. 

I love writing erotic paranormal romances, some with a dash of horror, because they are the sort of tales I love to read. I was originally published by Ellora's Cave, and then with Cobblestone Press and now with Deep Desires Press, with whom I have a new novel entitled The Time Witch due out in the summer of 2024.

I also write on Medium.com where you can find over a hundred of my short stories in both erotica and horror.

Froderick, Gay Son of Dracula

Posted on by Deep Desires Press

Froderick, Gay Son of Dracula

Cali Kitsu

My name is Froderick Dracula, but my friends call me Frode. I’m seventeen and starting my junior year of high school. My father, the famous Count Dracula, is not only the most celebrated vampire in the world, but he’s also the school ruler, not to mention a huge idiot. He’s completely out of touch with the world and hates anything that he doesn’t understand—which is basically everything.

Being the son of the ruler of the school and the highest vampire in all of vampire society is hard enough on its own, but there’s one thing I forgot to mention: I’m gay. It’s pretty hard keeping such a big secret, especially with my father trying to convince me to get my first bite out of the way. I’m not interested in biting any girls, though, so that’s not gonna happen.

Starting the first day of school will be just like every other year, boring, bland, full of classes that I don’t care about. That’s what I assumed until our opening assembly, when I saw him. Caleb Cheval. The new vampire in school. He’s also a noble, and he wants to—hold my hand?

Whaaat?! What the fangs am I supposed to do?

Normal

Posted on by Deep Desires Press

Normal

John Luke Maxwell

Anyone who grew up in the small town of Normal has heard of old Milholland Place. Crispin Galloway certainly has. He's lived next door to the haunted house for years.

It’s now 1997 and a new family is renting the creepy old house. Crispin isn't putting money on them sticking around for very long. Nobody who rents the Milholland Place ever does. He certainly has no intention of going over there himself. After all, he's got enough on his mind, what with having a sexual awakening and crushing on his best friend.

Unfortunately, his new neighbors are in the market for a babysitter to take care of their twin children, and Crispin needs money. The job seems easy enough, even though it means spending an evening at Spook Central, and the money is good. Crispin figures he can handle it.

But then, strange things start happening. Crispin hears noises he shouldn't. Odd messages are left for him. And there is a growing sense that someone—or something—is watching him. Is he merely the victim of a practical joke? Or are the stories about the old Milholland Place rooted in reality?

It's up to Crispin and his friends to discover the truth. Four meddling teenagers and their dog will have to band together to solve this mystery.

And it's not like that's ever happened before!
