Blurb:  Drafted to play for the Jacksonville Sea Storm, an NHL affiliate, twenty-year-old Lane Courtnall’s future looks bright, apart from the awkwardness he feels as a gay man playing on a minor league hockey team. He’s put his foot in his mouth a few times and alienated his teammates. Then, during a rivalry game, Lane throws off his gloves against Jared Shore, enforcer for the Savannah Renegades. It’s a strange way to begin a relationship.

But he’s determined to avoid another love affair after the last one left him devastated. Out of nowhere a one-nighter with rookie Lane Courtnall gives him second thoughts. Lane reminds Jared why he loves the game and why love might be worth the risk. In turn, Jared hopes to show Lane how to be comfortable with himself on and off the ice. But they’re at different points in their careers, and both men will have to decide what they value most.

His friends are worried, his panic attacks are getting worse, and the guy in the bungalow next to his is none other than Jamie Durham—the kind of neighbor who plays music loud, blows everybody’s breakers, and doesn’t care what people think of him.

But there’s more to Jamie than late nights, a huge inheritance, and a wild reputation. After endless bad press, Jamie longs for a chance to live a normal life, without the rumors and innuendo, and without his growing concern that he might be going crazy.

When Ben finds himself desperate for a date and Jamie is the only option, Jamie can’t believe his luck—a date with Ben would be as normal as it gets. But when the date doesn’t exactly go as planned, Ben and Jamie must overcome their personal demons to find their way to love.

Right One 4 Diesel by Talon P.S.: Exclusive Excerpt + Giveaway

unnamedAn Exclusive Excerpt from Right One 4 Diesel

by Talon P.S.

“I don’t want him.”

“Who do you want, Paris?” Diesel leaned in until his breath washed over Paris’ cheek.

Paris kept his eyes squeezed shut as he tried to prevent his physical reaction— and enjoyment— from the hot mouth wrapped around his cock.

He fought it, knew he shouldn’t confess it, but he couldn’t deny it any longer either. “I only want you.”

“Anyone else?”

“NO.” Paris slammed his head back against the wall, hoping the pain would quell everything else.

“Not even the Dominus?”

“That’s a trick question.” Paris threw the accusation back at him. “Since the two of you share everything.”

“You’re right it is, my apologies. But will you answer it?”

Paris sighed. He couldn’t deny that one, but he’d only take Trenton as a pair. “If you brought him to our bed, I would not refuse, but you would have to be with me.”

Diesel pulled the slave from Paris and guided him back. “Return to Blaine and tell him I said you’ve earned your pleasure. One of your choice.”

“Thank you, Sir. I choose to serve Paris.”

“Go now or I’ll send word to have Blaine beat you instead.” Diesel snapped at the slave. “Paris is mine. No one can have him.” And he watched as the man left without further issue. Only— when Diesel turned his attention back to Paris, he was met with Paris’ fist straight across his jaw.

Diesel took a step back, having been caught completely off guard. He shot an angry glare at Paris. “What the fuck was that?”

“MY FUCKING SAFEWORD!” Paris shouted.

“I didn’t give you a safeword!”

“It doesn’t matter! I’m calling red!” Paris would have done just about anything Diesel asked of him, except act as a pawn in one of his sexual games. Something inside him couldn’t have handled the pain if this was all he was to Diesel— a puppet.

~  *  ~

Diesel was about to belch out yet another argumentative statement but caught himself. There was valid pain expressed behind the anger in Paris’ eyes—

And then he stormed out.

Oh hell no. This is not how it’s going to go, he thought and started after him.

“Let him go!”

Diesel spun around, ready for a fight, glaring at the man who had dared to give him orders—

About Right One 4 Diesel

51sw-Q9Q8aL._SX370_BO1,204,203,200_Diesel Gentry knows exactly want he wants. Like his brother, he wants a Unicorn, a life slave to surrender her every desire and need to him— who is, in essence and body, the very same woman his brother, Trenton Leos, already possesses. He also wants Paris Dalqeaute.

He had the sexy Fallen Angel in his domineering grip once before, but Diesel purposely let him slip through his fingers. Being a Master of Doms within the BDSM lifestyle, Diesel knew he had to set Paris free— thinking and hoping Paris would eventually come back to him, to submit to Diesel willingly, and not just because Paris’ job description required it of him. After all, Paris had been hired as the director for the fetish and BDSM events down at the island resort Diesel and his brothers owned. Except Paris never did return; while he proved his value to his title, he has also been using his work to hide from Diesel.

It’s been a year now and Diesel’s bed and life have remained empty ever since. It’s time the running stopped.
Finding Paris wasn’t going to be the hard part— breaking down his walls to trust the two of them to commit to a life together was going to be the real challenge.

But even if Diesel succeeds, there is a problem with their future— what’s to come threatens the lives of everyone Diesel loves— and he doesn’t even know it yet.

About Talon P.S.

We Came— We Saw— and then we made it sexy.

And that’s pretty much how the Twins came to write Erotic Romances and Dark Fantasies. Both Talon P.S. and Princess S.O. have been writing together since they were kids, always challenging and competing with each other, and always each other’s biggest supporters.

Writing has always been an affair creating Fictions of Dark Apocalyptic Fantasy and Film Scripts in the Action/Drama and a few Sci-Fi’s. It wasn’t until they began an ancient history tale that the works turned to the Erotic Genre and they’ve been hooked ever since.

After a life time of gathering experiences, and honing their story telling skills, they have finally started putting them to novel size tales. Sadly, Talon passed away in 2012 leaving the books he started with his twin, entrusting her as his ghost writer, making her promise to see them completed before joining him.

Blurb: Qhuinn, son of no one, is used to being on his own. Disavowed from his bloodline, shunned by the aristocracy, he has finally found an identity as one of the most brutal fighters in the war against the Lessening Society. But his life is not complete. Even as the prospect of having a family of his own seems to be within reach, he is empty on the inside, his heart given to another….

Blay, after years of unrequited love, has moved on from his feelings for Qhuinn. And it’s about time: The male has found his perfect match in a Chosen female, and they are going to have a young—just as Qhuinn has always wanted for himself.
