BDSM Romance, Gay, Dark Fantasy
Date Published: May 9, 2025
Three vampires battle the lives they left behind to build a future out of
the ashes of their pasts.
Immortal Steps: Tain, a renowned Celtic dancer, has bitter memories of his
first crush and the trainer who left him without a word. For years he’s
flung himself from one brief romantic encounter to another, the subject of
tabloid gossip and speculation, always insisting he’s not gay. When Kyle,
Tain’s old mentor, comes back into Tain’s life, the last thing Tain wants is
to give the man, or the vampire, a place in his heart.
Hidden Depths: Pat’s devoted his life to locating the wreck of The
Pelican’s Flight, sunk in 1692, along with forty other ships, when the
infamous town of Port Royal slid into the Caribbean. Jamie lost more than
his lover when The Pelican went down. Pat offers Jamie hope at finding his
ship, along with a chance at rediscovering love. Will the secrets they share
bring them together? Or tear them apart?
Vampires In Heat: Humans in Seattle are dying as a result of domestic cat
vampires and demonesses working together. The latest victim is Erron’s
neighbor and best friend. Nolan, the leader of Seattle’s Pacifistic Vampire
Clan, and Erron, an albino who is commonly mistaken for a vampire, team up
with the cat vamp leader to find the rogues who are killing needlessly and
trying to discredit vampire-kind. And just maybe, between them, they’ll find
more than a remedy for this vampire scourge — like love!
Publisher’s Note: Immortal Steps, Vampires In Heat, and Hidden Depths have
been previously published as stand alone novellas.
EXCERPT
Excerpt from Immortal Steps
Alone, Kyle Lohan entered his private balcony at the Grampian Theater in
Edinburgh, Scotland. As he sat down, the house lights dimmed briefly to
signal a two minute warning before the show began. The box smelled faintly
of sex, although he doubted anyone without a vampire’s heightened senses
could detect the erotic scent. Regardless, it was his own fault for sneaking
in to watch rehearsals the previous evening. He’d been unable to resist
tugging his cock in time with the heavy beat of the dancers as they
practiced.
Okay, not all the performers excited him. Just one.
Tain O’Halloran.
Tonight Kyle had better prepared for the public performance, or so he’d
thought. The quick release during his shower should have calmed his libido
enough to sit through the performance without a hard-on. But as the first
strains of a flute solo poured across the stage, the anticipation proved to
be more than his body could resist and his cock rose to an aching
fullness.
Tain. On stage. His stage.
How long had he waited for this? Worked for this? Dreamed of this?
Sometimes it seemed like forever. And yet, very soon, the moment he’d been
preparing for would arrive. One way or another, he would finally end his
long pursuit.
He adjusted the fit of his tuxedo pants as the chorus sprinted across the
stage. Their shoes hit the wooden floor in rhythmic, staccato beats,
flirting with the notes. Kyle couldn’t stop his own feet from scuffing
against the floor in a pale imitation of the dancers’ fancy footwork. Had
his heart been prone to beat, it would have been racing as fast as the
music.
A few more seconds…
Then, appearing out of a flash of light and smoke, bam! There he was. Tain
O’Halloran. The male lead’s long, sleek black hair floated behind him as he
bounced in perfect synchronization with the little blond at his side. His
grey eyes flashed with pure joy and a little arrogance. A smile curved his
thin pink lips. And what that black leather did for his ass…
Kyle groaned softly as his cock twitched with longing, but he refused to
slake his lust. Privacy wasn’t an issue, even during a public performance.
No, nothing mattered more than soaking up every moment of this night to tuck
away in his memories. If the evening didn’t go as planned, this could be all
he had left to remember the talented young man come morning.
The first dance ended, and Kyle felt the tightness in his chest ease as
Tain exited stage right. He’d reappear several times throughout the
performance.
Kyle itched with anticipation for the next time, and the next… and the
next… By the second act, Kyle could pick out Tain’s unique sweat from the
morass of odors permeating the air. The scent teased his cock like nothing
else. His whole body tensed as he imagined jumping over the balcony’s rail
to land on top of the dancer’s young bones, then fucking him to within an
inch of his life, claiming him on stage for all the world to see.
Well, that’s one way to announce that you’re back in his life, Kyle thought
with a rueful shake of his head. Definitely not one of your brightest ideas
though.
If anything, such a bold, stupid move would get him thrown out of Tain’s
life for good. Kyle’s goal was quite the opposite. If he had his way,
nothing would separate him from Tain ever again.
The show ended with a roar of applause that pulled the dancers back on
stage for a second encore. Vibrant and smiling under the lights, Tain looked
like he could hold out for a third reprise if the director let him. However,
the rest of the troupe wasn’t fairing as well, so when the curtains closed
again the house lights came up.
The show was over, but Kyle’s performance of a lifetime was about to
begin.
