Hallelujah, it’s 2013. The Dragon is finally slinking back into his cave and here’s hoping that the Snake sliding out to replace him is a little kinder.
That being said, 2013 looks promising. It looks hopeful. It’s chock full of shiny, pretty things and I’m convincing myself that it’s going to be fantastic.
What are these baubles of delight of which I’m so pumped about? Well, thank you for asking. Let me fill you in…
Honour – Novel – M/M Historical Erotic Romance
Coming March 6, 2013 with Less Than Three Press

Sonata – Novel – M/M Contemporary Erotic Romance
Coming July 17, 2013 with Less Than Three Press
At thirty-eight Ian knows better than to search for love in a bar. It was craving that drew him there, it was shattered self-esteem that urged him to leave, but it was fortune that brought him Jordan. Sexy, young and single–it was only a brief encounter that Jordan was looking for and he was adamant that no amount of coercing was going to change that. After all, Jordan already had more than enough on his plate trying to scrape a life together for him and his autistic son, Cole… <click here for more>

Rockabye – Serial Fiction – M/M Contemporary Erotic Romance
Coming 2013 with Less Than Three Press for their “Rocking Hard” Anthology
Malcolm didn’t have a lot going for him. He wasn’t one of the blessed, or one of the beautiful. He didn’t have many talents. He was, however, a damn good chef. He worked hard and he insisted on perfection – not just from himself but also from everyone else in his kitchen. And if that made others miserable, that was just too damn bad. If one couldn’t live up to expectations then one didn’t belong at Burgeon Manor… <click here for more>

And I’m very pleased to add this most recent submission to the list…
MEMWARS! – Serial Fiction – M/M Fantasy Romance
Coming 2013 with Less Than Three Press for their “If You’re Reading This” Anthology
Silas’ father had always been distant. Career-focused and single-mindedly pursuing the American dream, he’d provided Silas nearly everything money could buy. Emotionally however, Silas’ early years had been destitute. While that should have left Silas bitter, it merely fueled his own desire to succeed, to be strong. Even with his father’s recent suicide, Silas refuses to succumb to emotionalism – not even as he packs up his father’s belongings and says good-bye. He almost loses that battle however, when he finds what he assumes to be his father’s journal… <click here for more>

Released October, 2012 with Less Than Three Press

I have no idea what to say except congratulations!! I’m so excited!! *tackle-hugs you*
Thank you so much! ❤
Honestly {EDIT}, you should just send it to me. I’m your biggest fan. I keep telling you that. -huffs- But fine, I’ll do it this way. And if I don’t win, I’ll buy my own copy and demand an autograph. XD
That sounds like a fair plan. I can totally live with that. XD
❤
You should send it to me. I am not only over eighteen, I am over double eighteen.
Ah well, still younger than I. *grins*
Besides, you’re only as young as you feel and all, right? Here’s to being five forever!
❤
SO many things in 2013 to be excited about! I can’t wait for all of yours and my own, as well. *hugs*
(And yes. I want the signed, printed version. No, I have no qualms about doing what I must to get it. >.>)
That sounds so ominous! Or inviting… *grins*

Absolutely – thank you so much for the support!

This is the first time I hear of AF Henley and just finished reading all the excerpts. They all sound intriguing and especially loved Honour. I gather it is the sequel to Inflori? I’m looking forward to knowing more about you and your writings!
Congratulations and much success to you!

Hi, Rush! Thanks for reading, I’m thrilled they sound intriguing. Honour is actually a standalone novel, as is Înflori. Înflori takes place current day, Honour in old-world England (1600’s). There’s a snippet posted for Înflori on LT3 : http://www.lessthanthreepress.com/excerpt-inflori/ if you’d like to know more about it. I also have the opening scene posted on Goodreads : http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/418101924
I’ll do the same for Honour on its release (March 6th).
Thank you for the good wishes and I hope 2013 is successful for you as well!
❤
Bwaaahhhh I never win any contests but I HAVE to try! Lots of hugs and kisses from Croatia!

Oh, I have to try this. This is just too delicious to ignore. Lots of love from Denmark!
Thank you so much! Some Canadian love back to you! ❤
Read the excerpt and I want to read more! Hence this comment, in case i get lucky enough to win a print copy, haha! Thanks for the giveaway!
You’re welcome! Thank you for the lovely comment. Good luck! ❤
I am totally out of the lt3 loop, when did they pick up such an awesome author. The blurb for honour was the most exciting for me,something about princes haha congrats on all the upcoming pubs 😀
Well thank you so much for the congrats and the kudos! But LT3 actually has quite a few great authors. I’m really looking forward to Honour’s release. I tried to give it a dose of emotion, conflict and character development. I hope you enjoy it! 😀
Congratulations! 2013 looks like it’s going to be a wonderful year for you! 🙂 Inflori sounds absolutely awesome (and I love lt3), so count me in on your contest! Thanks.
I hope 2013 is an awesome year for everyone. We deserve it! 😀
Thanks so much for saying so! I’m an LT3 fan myself. They’re great to work with and I’m honoured to be part of it.
Good luck with the contest!
I would love a copy of Înflori! Have been meaning to check it out. Congratulations on all the upcoming shinies!
Thanks so much! I’m really pumped about everything this year is promising to be. Best of luck in the contest! 😀
Ooh, how exciting! Count me in 😀
Thanks, Kayla! And absolutely! 😀
This sounds like a very interesting book. I’d like to win it!
I’m glad you think so, thanks very much! Best of luck! 😀
Yay, sounds like fun. It took me a bit to get to the giveaway part. Too many links confuses my computer illiterate mind.
If it makes you feel any better, I was just as confused trying to put them all in. XD
I hope you found something interesting in one or two of them! Good luck!
Congrats on the upcoming publications, so cool that even more got picked up!!!!
I’d of course like to enter to win the print copy of Înflori!
Thank you so much! I’m really looking forward to hearing some responses on Honour when it comes out. I’m in love with the story. xD

Hiya Free. Came over from Y! …. been meaning to do this for a little while. Life ate my soul. Need a good book to bring it back.
Hey, Crash! Great to see you over here! 😀
Here’s hoping this year proves a little better for you. ❤
*grins* Thanks…. I hope so too…. I kinda fell off the writing wagon … need to run and catch up. Looks like you’ve been productive though.
I look forward to seeing what you get out there! It’s always a pleasure to read your work. ❤
I've been trying to keep myself busy. Here's hoping it proves successful. 😀
Congrats to the winner. I’m not jealous. Honest, I’m not! >.> Ok, I’m a bad liar.
Gonna have to buy my own copy this weekend. I need an address to send the book to mister! XD
