Finding his way out of the woods is hard enough, but Johnny would also like to save Zimri-if Zimri even wants to be saved. *** Bread Crumbs is a dark M/M romance between a rejected drummer and a rising star, and is part of the Fallen Fairytale series.

You can't fly away from destiny. Crow Rapp assumes he'll spend his life growing corn in rural Illinois, like the grandparents who raised him. But during a visit to a traveling carnival, he encounters a handsome stranger named Simeon Bell-and receives a prophecy of a horrifying future. When that future materializes soon afterward, Crow flees... only to find that no matter how far he goes, fate pursues him. Simeon reenters his life a decade later and causes Crow to consider whether actively fighting his fate might be better than constant attempts at escape. In a world tinged by magic, where myths are as real as the sky above them, the men try to determine Crow's true identity. Along the way, they test the powers of friendship and love and explore the boundaries of free will-ultimately discovering whether the force of destiny can be overcome. Crow's Fate is part of the multi-author Carnival of Mysteries Series. Each book stands alone, but each one includes at least one visit to Errante Ame's Carnival of Mysteries, a magical, multiverse traveling show full of unusual acts, games, and rides. The Carnival changes to suit the world it's on, so each visit is unique and special. This book contains an Illinois farmboy, a roustabout from London, and realizations about the power of love.
Brute mène une vie solitaire dans un monde où la magie est omniprésente. Ce qui le définit le mieux serait sans doute ses deux mètres trente de laideur, et son ascendance honteuse. Personne, pas même Brute, ne s'attend donc à ce qu'il puisse être autre chose qu'une main-d'oeuvre corvéable. Mais les héros sont de toutes sortes et de toutes tailles, et quand il se retrouve handicapé pour avoir sauvé un prince, la vie de Brute change brusquement. Il est invité à venir travailler au palais de Tellomer afin de devenir le gardien d'un seul et unique prisonnier. La tâche semble facile, mais elle s'avérera être le défi de sa vie. Les rumeurs prétendent que le prisonnier, Gray Leynham, est un sorcier et un traître. Ce qui est certain, c'est qu'il a passé les dernières années dans une misère à peine imaginable: aveugle, enchaîné, et rendu presque incompréhensible par un bégaiement extrême. Et comme si cela ne suffisait pas, il est assailli par des cauchemars durant lesquels il assiste à la mort de gens vivant à proximité - pire, ses rêves se réalisent. Tandis que Brute s'habitue à la vie au palais et apprend à connaître Gray, il découvre sa propre valeur, d'abord en tant qu'ami et en tant qu'homme, puis en qualité d'amant. Mais Brute apprend aussi que les héros sont parfois confrontés à des choix difficiles et que faire ce qui lui semble juste peut aussi l'exposer à de grands dangers.
Brute leads a lonely life in a world where magic is commonplace. He is seven and a half feet of ugly, and of disreputable descent. No one, including Brute, expects him to be more than a laborer. But heroes come in all shapes and sizes, and when he is maimed while rescuing a prince, Brute's life changes abruptly. He is summoned to serve at the palace in Tellomer as a guard for a single prisoner. It sounds easy but turns out to be the challenge of his life. Rumors say the prisoner, Gray Leynham, is a witch and a traitor. What is certain is that he has spent years in misery: blind, chained, and rendered nearly mute by an extreme stutter. And he dreams of people's deaths--dreams that come true. As Brute becomes accustomed to palace life and gets to know Gray, he discovers his own worth, first as a friend and a man and then as a lover. But Brute also learns heroes sometimes face difficult choices and that doing what is right can bring danger of its own.

This collection contains the ninth and tenth Bureau novellas. CAUGHT Art Gundersen did not make it as an agent with the Bureau of Trans-Species Affairs. But when Chief Townsend orders him out of the lab and into the mountains of northern California to collect evidence from a murder scene, Art's happy to go. He looks forward to tromping around in the wilderness-and finds he enjoys the company of the forest technician who discovered the hiker's corpse surrounded by sasquatch footprints. Jerry Humboldt lives a somewhat reclusive life in the fire lookout tower. Nobody comments much on his enormous size. Or his unusually hairy feet. Then Art shows up, and Jerry is forced into some new realizations. As Art and Jerry interact, they discover some long-past connections as well as some very present dangers. It's a risky equation: an awkward not-agent, a virginal "wild man" of the forest, and a multiple murderer-with the Bureau's help six hundred miles away. CHAMBERED Agent Dash Cooke likes simple assignments: annihilate the dangerous monsters and move on. He likes a simple life too: a furnished apartment that he switches out for a new one every few years and no messy personal connections. Then his boss gives him an assignment that's not simple at all. Reports claim that a beautiful old house in Sacramento is haunted by a poltergeist, but Dash soon discovers a very different type of spirit. Henry will be destroyed if Dash evicts him. And suddenly Dash's life has become very complicated indeed.

A Love Can't NovelSmall but mighty-that could be Detective Nevin Ng's motto. Now a dedicated member of the Portland Police Bureau, he didn't let a tough start in life stop him from protecting those in need. He doesn't take crap from anyone, and he doesn't do relationships. Until he responds to the severe beating of a senior citizen and meets the victim's wealthy, bow-tied landlord.Property manager and developer Colin Westwood grew up with all the things Nevin never had, like plenty of money and a supportive, loving family. Too supportive, perhaps, since his childhood illness has left his parents unwilling to admit he's a strong, grown man. Colin does do relationships, but they never work out. Now he's thinking maybe he won't just go with the flow. Maybe it's time to try something more exciting. But being a witness to a terrible crime-or two-was more than he bargained for.Despite their differences, Colin and Nevin discover that the sparks fly when they're together. But sparks are short-lived, dampened by the advent of brutal crimes, and Colin and Nevin have seemingly little in common. The question is whether they have the heart to build something lasting.
