Title: Leo by Meredith Spies
Single Dads of Gaynor Beach
Publisher: Meredith Spies
Genre: Contemporary, Gay, Romance
Length: 243 pages

Summary:

The funeral business is burying me. Entrusted with Morris Funeral Home and Crematorium, the company that has been in my family for four generations, I fear it’s going to go belly up under the growing pile of bills. But the troubles haunting me don’t end there. My son’s teachers don’t seem to understand how to work with a kid like Eddie, leaving me zero time for myself.

Then there’s Ambrose Jennings. The quirky baker is catering Delia Dennis’ wake, and I can’t seem to get him out of my head.

The last thing I need right now is any kind of romantic complications in my life. Still, Ambrose is boisterous fun and chaos wrapped up in a sexy, tempting package. Maybe one little taste of the baker’s goods wouldn’t be the end of the world?

When Ambrose gives me a sample of the sweet treats he has on offer, both of us ache for this to become more than a taste test. I don’t know if it’s enough to let go of my reservations, or if circumstances close the coffin on our chances for any future together.

Leo is a single-dad romance in the shared world of Gaynor Beach. It’s low-angst, opposites attract with the grumpy one soft for the sunshiny one featuring goth teen dance parties with way more glitter than expected, adorable kids who think piracy is a perfectly legitimate life goal, adults who need a reminder that life isn’t all about work, and steamy Grumpy and Sunshiny scenes.

Title: North’s Pole by Leta Blake
Publisher: Leta Blake Books
Genre: Contemporary, Gay, Romance
Length: 241 pages

Summary:

Located on the shores of Lake Pend Oreille in beautiful Northern Idaho, Camp Bay Chalet is a discrete and cozy B&B, popular with both locals and minor celebrities for its fabulous holiday weekends.

The pic seen around the world….

The son of Hollywood royalty, North Astor-Ford has lived his entire life in the public’s eye. He knows better than anyone that someone is always watching.

So when one not-so-innocent picture meant for a hook-up accidentally ends up crossposted across all his social media, North is left humiliated and scared. With no one to turn to, he flees to Camp Bay Chalet to be close to the one person he used to count on to protect him from the world.

Liam’s life has been in a holding pattern since the moment North fired him three years ago, even if it was for the best. A romance between a bodyguard and his client would’ve caused exactly the sort of scandal Liam was hired to prevent.

Now that North is back in his orbit, Liam’s going to do what he does best, protect North from the world. And maybe, just maybe, the charm of a Camp Bay Chalet Christmas will be enough to both heal North and bring about the romance they’ve both always wanted.

North’s Pole takes place in the Camp Bay shared universe, but can be read as a stand-alone. Look for more of the Camp Bay universe in Stolen Christmas by Marie Sexton.

Title: Subway Slayings by C.S. Poe
Memento Mori Book Two
Publisher: Emporium Press
Genre: Contemporary, Gay, Romance, Mystery
Length: 274 pages

Summary:

Detective Everett Larkin of New York City’s Cold Case Squad has been on medical leave since catching the serial killer responsible for what the media has dubbed the “Death Mask Murders.” But Larkin hasn’t forgotten that another memento—another death—is waiting to be found.

Summer brings the grisly discovery of human remains in the subway system, but the clues point to one of Larkin’s already-open cases, so he resumes active duty. And when a postmortem photograph, akin to those taken during the Victorian Era, is located at the scene, Larkin requests aid from the most qualified man he knows: Detective Ira Doyle of the Forensic Artists Unit.

An unsolved case that suffered from tunnel vision, as well as the deconstruction of death portraits, leads Larkin and Doyle down a rabbit hole more complex than the tunnels beneath Manhattan. And if this investigation isn’t enough, both are struggling with how to address the growing intimacy between them. Because sometimes, love is more grave than murder.
