Blurb:

Born and raised in a small town outside Pittsburgh, Stephanie Huschuk has had to battle for everything she’s achieved in life. Now she’s vying for the spot of starting goalie on the Philadelphia Venom and there’s only one thing that might hold her back: her feelings for Professor Greg Blue Blanket. Greg is considerably older than she is and recently divorced.

As if those two things weren’t reason enough for Stephanie to keep her distance, he’s also the twin brother of her goalie coach, Alice Dunlop. But the heart wants what the heart wants and soon Stephanie is facing not only the ire of one of her coaches, but she’s going to have to make one of the most difficult decisions a woman can make.

Will the stresses of family, life, and hockey rip them apart, or will love be enough to keep this couple together?

Authorly News - Change on the Wind






This past year has been a crazy one. Filled with ups and downs, great moments and not-so-great ones. It was with a heavy heart that I just signed the rights revision letter with Torquere Press. I'm sure many of you have heard that they're folding. Another small press gone. That saddens me terribly. I will always have fond memories of my experience with Torquere. They gave me a chance with my first M/M hockey romance and for that alone I owe them much. I also made some wonderful friends from my time there.


So, I now am looking at about sixteen books coming back to me. Yeah, it's a little overwhelming to say the least. I'm going to work on getting the books from Ellora's Cave - who is also folding and returning rights - up first. I have a new series coming out for the Cayuga Cougars that I'd been sitting on. Now that I own Victor and Dan, I can start putting up more stories about the boys from Cayuga!

Once I get the EC books settled and up then I'll focus on the books from Torquere. I promise those who are fans of my M/M Lake Erie shifter books that I'll for sure be working on getting those back up. It will take time. All the books will need new cover art, ISBNs, and editing, which is costly. I won't get into the money side of all of this but suffice it to say that there has been little royalty money paid out from either house.

Bare with me gang. I'll do my best to get my books back up for you. Until then, I ask that you do not purchase any of my works through Ellora's Cave or Torquere Press. Hold onto your cash for just a little while. Next year is going to be BIG for the Cougar's as well as my other M/M hockey romances. Look for some box sets filled with man-on-man hockey goodness coming in 2017! And my shifter fans, I will not forget you. You have my word on that. Thank you all for your support and love.

Victor Kalinski & Dan Arou/ Point Shot Trilogy - 2016 Rainbow Award Finalists!







Talk about a fantastic way to start your day! I woke up to find the news that Vic and Dan were finalists in the 2016 Rainbow Awards Best Bisexual Contemporary Romance and Fiction Category. Their books - The Point Shot Trilogy - placed in the top three! You can find the listings for the top 5 in this really tough category here:

Reviews and Ramblings 2016 Best Bisexual Contemporary Romance & Fiction


I'm still shocked and deliriously happy. It's an incredible honor and a huge shout out to M/M hockey romance! Of course, Victor's head is now so big Dan and I fear he'll never fit through another doorway again. And, maybe, just this once, he's entitled to be a cocky peacock.

Since I'm reeling in stardust about the award, I'll pass along that next year is going to be a big one for Victor and the Cayuga Cougars. There will be three Cougar books and a Point Shot Trilogy box set coming your way in 2017. Here are the release dates--

Point Shot Trilogy Box Set - Releasing March 1, 2017

Snap Shot - Cayuga Cougars #1  (Mario & Lila's Romance) -Releasing April 6, 2017

Open Net - Cayuga Cougars #2 (August & Sal's Romance) -Releasing August 1, 2017

Title to be Determined - Cayuga Cougars #3 Holiday Story ( Victor and Dan) Releasing December 5, 2017

That's right. Vic and Dan are going to be sharing the ho-ho-ho with you next year! As if I'd be able to not give him another book now that he's a Rainbow Award Finalist. I love him to  bits the cocky so-and-so.

Blurb:

Minor league goalie Adam Seiger is a nice guy. He’s kind, cute, and a little quirky (but show me a goalie who isn’t) and he loves to interact with fans. During a meet and greet after a game Adam meets Cason Reyes, a hard-working young man with stunning amber eyes and a smile as sweet as a candy cane. Desperate to see Cason again, Adam does something more than a little naughty.

To add insult to the egg nog, it appears that one little white lie may end Adam’s chance of having a merry Christmas with a new boyfriend. Will he end up with nothing but a lump of coal in his stocking, instead of the man who owns his heart?
