Title: Hostile Ground by L.A. Witt & Aleksandr Voinov
Publisher: Riptide Publishing
Genre: Contemporary, M/M, Erotic, Romance, Mystery/Suspense
Length: 362 pages
Summary:
Enemy territory is a dangerous place to fall in love.
After the deaths of three undercover cops investigating a drug ring in a seedy strip club in Seattle, Detective Mahir Hussain has been sent to finish the job. He joins the club’s security team in the hopes of finding enough evidence to bust the operation before the men in charge find a reason to put him in a shallow grave.
To protect the strippers, only gay men can work the club. Ridley, the cold and intimidating head of security, knows exactly how to test potential new hires—including Mahir. From the minute they meet, Mahir and Ridley engage in a dangerous dance of sex and mind games. Mahir needs to find his evidence before Ridley figures out he’s a cop—and before they both grow too close to betray one another.
As the game goes on, Mahir burrows deeper into the operation, where he learns there’s much more happening than meets the eye . . . and why every cop who made it this far has been silenced with a bullet.

Author Bios
L.A. Witt is an abnormal M/M romance writer currently living in the glamorous and ultra-futuristic metropolis of Omaha, Nebraska, with her husband, two cats, and a disembodied penguin brain that communicates with her telepathically. In addition to writing smut and disturbing the locals, L.A. is said to be working with the US government to perfect a genetic modification that will allow humans to survive indefinitely on Corn Pops and beef jerky. This is all a cover, though, as her primary leisure activity is hunting down her arch nemesis, erotica author Lauren Gallagher, who is also said to be lurking somewhere in Omaha.
L. A.’s backlist is available on her website, and updates (as well as random thoughts and the odd snarky comment) can be found on her blog or on Twitter (@GallagherWitt).
Aleksandr has been published for twenty years, both in print and ebook. He has ten years’ experience as a writing coach, book doctor, and writing teacher, and he works as a financial editor in London.
After co-authoring the M/M military cult classic Special Forces, Aleksandr embarked on a quest to write edgy, dark, sometimes literary M/M and gay fiction (much of which is romance/erotica)—the only way he can use his American Literature degree these days.
He’s been published with Heyne/Random House, Carina Press, Samhain Publishing, and others.

I’m amazed at how prolific Witt and Voinov are, but they always deliver the goods!
Great sounding blurb
I’m really looking forward to reading this book. Alek and LA write amazing stories together.
Trix – I’m not nearly as prolific as Lori – I think my brain would explode if I tried that. It does help that my company decided to fire the whole department, so I’m currently re-training and hopefully writing all the books in my head. 🙂
Thank you for hosting us and the kind comments. Happy to answer any questions! (Lori is in NOLA.)
I’m glad to know that you, Aleksandr, are taking advantage of the time off for you are one hell of a writer. The two of you really can write fantastic stories! Looking forward to reading this and many more books from the you and Lori!
Sandra
Thank you! Lori should get here tomorrow, and usually when we’re together and unsupervised, we write at least one book together. 🙂
