Devil by the Tail

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.

Timothy Black

After taming the Temple of Ishtar, rebel airship captain Charlotte Frost and her clockwork courtesan, Arslan Tash, have a monumental task ahead of them. They must protect and defend the Temple from Gabriel Harper, a mysterious alchemist who has designs on the Temple and the secrets therein.

The problem? Charlotte is attracted to Gabriel. She must overcome this attraction to the enigmatic man while simultaneously orchestrating a defence against the Matriarchy, who plan to break into the Temple and claim the fabled Engines of Eros, power cores that contain the very essence of the gods.

Can the intrepid aviatrix resist her hungers for Gabriel long enough to keep the Engines out of the hands of those who would abuse their power?

The Rest of Your Life Soundtrack

The Rest of Your Life Soundtrack

Benjamin Roesch

When teen musician Rainey Cobb gets noticed by a major record label, she’s caught between her rock & roll dreams and her sick father’s hope that she goes to college.

She finds a romantic diversion in Mia, a music-obsessed college dropout who makes the best mix tapes ever. But it's hard for Rainey to fully open her heart when she’s not quite ready to show the rest of the world she’s gay.

Signing a contract with the label should be a no-brainer. But they’re also demanding that Rainey swap her Grunge-curious look for Gap-catalog styles and her edgy original songs for a more radio-friendly sound. They even offer to pay her dad’s expensive cancer bills if she’ll commit to their vision—but how much should a dream really cost?

My Only Real Friend is the Easter Bunny at the Mall

My Only Real Friend is the Easter Bunny at the Mall

Christina Bagni

When Mo’s therapist suggested she get an after-school job to help with her depression, she didn’t expect to end up as the photographer at the Easter Bunny photo set. She also didn’t expect to befriend Billy, the man in the bunny suit—an extremely tattooed ex-gangster (probably).

Mo’s therapist also didn’t lay out the risks. Like how Mo’s shoplifting habit might make things difficult with her mall cop dad. Or how the cute changing room attendant at Pandora’s Box might reveal to the world that Mo’s queer before she’s ready.

Or how it all might end with Mo getting arrested.

Well, whatever her therapist expected, Mo’s about to tell her the truth…for maybe the first time. Because after it all blows up, she’s all Mo’s got—besides her only real friend, the Easter Bunny at the mall.

The Clockwork Courtesan

The Clockwork Courtesan

The Tales of the Tantric Aviatrix, Book 1

Timothy Black

In 1836 the Industrial Revolution collided with the sexual revolution when magic was unleashed upon an unsuspecting Earth.

Ancient mystic practices were applied to a new form of technology pioneered by the first tantric aviatrixes, the Matriarchy, who used their secret Art to launch a flying city named Godmother, the Amethyst City. But twenty years of aerial and techno-magical superiority have led the ruling Crone Council and the zealots of the Legion of Lilith to slowly turn the Matriarchy toward the idea of rule rather than liberation.

Although concerned with the recent militaristic bent of her sisterhood, Charlotte Frost is more preoccupied with a cheating wife and trying to keep her Liberty Ship, the Harlot’s Promise, aloft and free of interference by the Crones. But the appearance of a prototype Doll, self-aware and capable of mind control via sex, shakes what little faith Charlotte has left in the Matriarchy’s pure motives.

The truth is far darker and more tangled than she ever suspected.

Blowin’ My Mind Like a Summer Breeze

Blowin' My Mind Like a Summer Breeze

Benjamin Roesch

Fifteen-year-old Rainey Cobb never thought meeting someone could actually change her life. But, then again, she’s never met anyone like Juliet.

It’s 1995 and The Cobb Family Band, led by Rainey’s rock star parents, has arrived for a week-long gig at the Midwestern resort owned by Juliet’s family. Dazzled by Juliet’s carpe diem attitude, DIY tattoos, and passion for grunge, Rainey falls hard. And when Juliet gives Rainey a mixtape that unlocks her heart’s secret yearnings, Rainey starts seeing herself—and her vagabond, show-biz life—through new eyes.

If Rainey quits the band, her parents’ fading career might never recover. But if she doesn’t leap now, she might be stuck forever in a life she didn’t choose…and always wonder who she could have been.

Mark of Ravage and Ruin

Jacyn Gormish

When Barli wakes up in a religious-run prison called the Asylum, she has one goal: get out and back to her girlfriend.

The Priest that runs the Asylum sees something more in Barli. He sees an assassin in the making. He pushes her into training to become a Black Sin, a killer for the clergy, free to roam the streets and eliminate anyone he wants removed from society.

For Barli, this is a way to escape and get back to her girlfriend's arms. She plays along with the Priest's plans, even if she has no desire to be a Black Sin.

But the friendships she develops along the way take her by surprise. In particular, she becomes fond of Ferran, a boy locked in the asylum for life for reasons she doesn't know...if there is even a valid reason for the power-hungry Priest to do such a thing.

When Barli's opportunity finally arises to set out into the city and escape to her lover, she learns something that stops her in her tracks.

Ferran is to be killed.

And only Barli can save him.
