Song for the Wilds is the title for the second book in The Wilds Duology. Gay romance/adventure fantasy series.

Coming December 24th!

I’m not putting up the blurb yet because I want to do that closer to when Haunt of the Wilds will be published, but here is the awesome cover for Song, also done by Deranged Doctor Designs.

Song For The Wilds eBook CoverSong For The Wilds eBook CoverHere’s a smaller version of the cover.

Aaaand…random story time :)

Most of Song takes place in a plane devoid of a sun, but for half the year the sky is lit with a powerful aurora (Heh, see cover.) I ended up having the people of that plane call the lights gaslights because I like to try and name things using real terms so they might conjure an image. I’ve found this helps over using completely made up words all the time since I don’t have to drop into a paragraph of description every time I introduce something.

Of course, after I’d finished writing both books and was editing them I discovered that gaslight actually refers to some subgenre of steampunk or something or other. I don’t know. People make things up all the time and I feel behind. Like is clockpunk something now? Mythic? Dieselpunk? I’m so done.

At first I freaked, thinking I needed to change gaslights to something else. I even brainstormed a whole bunch of (dumb) ideas. Then I decided–fuck it. I’m keeping it. So gaslights it is and gaslights they will remain.

They are lights. In the sky. Green. Blue. Red. Purple. They’re cool. I like them. They allowed me to have people (like one of my leads) see without a sun–half the time at least :)

So I know technically this is the wrong month for it since November is usually reserved for Nanowrimo happenings, but I thought it would be a fun idea so I’m doing it anyway.

For the month of November, I’m going to do the A-Z challenge where I post every day (except Saturdays) with the topic of the post starting with the corresponding letter.

Haunt of The Wilds eBook CoverHowever, I’m doing it with a twist. Every post is going to be some sort of teaser for my upcoming novel publications. I’ve got short stories, poems, character interviews, (fake) book excerpts, (real) book excerpts, photos of my (admittedly crappy, but useful) maps, character diary entries, letters and even a quiz (because Q…) If that doesn’t excite you, I’m using the word Zombify for Z.

Basically lots of free fun wordage :)

Haunt of the Wilds, Book I in The Wilds Duology, is a gay romance/adventure fantasy novel coming out on December 3rd. It’s on preorder now on Amazon for .99c.

Haunt of the Wilds, the first book in The Wilds Duology, is a gay romance/adventure fantasy novel. It is now on pre-order at Amazon for only .99c!

But of course, it’s the cover you want to see, since that’s how we judge just about everything nowadays :)

Haunt of The Wilds eBook Cover

It’s awesome! At least I think so. Here’s a smaller version that might be easier to take in all at once.

Both Wilds covers were designed by Deranged Doctor Designs, who were great to work with!

For those interested, here is the teaser for Haunt of the Wilds:

The wild will reign.

When Houndmaster De’vii and his pack take on a seemingly innocuous escort job, things quickly spiral out of control. Creatures straight from a death plane hide within the unfamiliar country and the people he’s supposed to rely on to help have their own darker motivations.

And then there’s De’vii’s alluring charge.

Caliebb Renaveri is harmless and quiet, yet also manages to stir the wild in every dog in De’vii’s pack. He can’t afford to allow the wildness to take over, nor can he abandon the job. But Caliebb is more than he appears and stronger than he seems and by the time De’vii realizes just how dangerous Caliebb truly is he stands to lose everything he holds dear: his mind, his life and his pack.

The exciting beginning to The Wilds Duology!

Warning: This novel features a houndmaster with wild and rough tendencies, both in bed and out, a mage spring who doesn’t know his own strength and a dark journey that will test them both.

Coming December 3rd!

The Wilds Duology Header

Finally! That’s what I’m thinking at least. I feel as if I’ve been working on this duology all year and finally I’m ready to announce it! It’s exciting for me :)

So without further ado, I’d like to announce The Wilds Duology! Coming in December!

These novels are gay romance/adventure fantasy featuring the same M/M couple in both books. Because of the length of the stories there is a lot of adventure, a lot of world-building and, of course, plenty of romance along the way!

I’ll be doing a cover reveal on October 19th! I also have a project I’m working on to give a taste of these novels. I’ll announce what that is closer to November. Stay tuned! :)

Alley (Curtain Chasers Book One) Excerpt

I’d like to announce that the first in a novella trilogy I’ve written is on pre-order. It will come out on May 15th, 2015. All three novellas feature the same M/M couple and are set in a fantasy/contemporary world. Could also be classified as paranormal. I’ll add the missing links as they become available. First chapter is below :)

ALLEY
Curtain Chasers Book One
28k words

Amazon | iBooks | Kobo
Nook | Scribd | Inktera

For three years, Clay Devlin has been stuck in an alley, hanging suspended between worlds. He yearns to be free. Even if that means facing consequences from a mistake he made before someone caged his soul on the wrong side of a newly opened curtain.

So when Jacob Hunt wanders down Clay’s alley, desire overwhelms good sense. Not just the desire to be free, but the desire for some normalcy and the touch of another man against his skin once more. But Jacob is a hotspot hunter with a famous blog, thousands of fans and a one-track mind. His attention could easily be motivated by manipulation rather than true attraction and his promises as empty as the alley Clay calls home.

Being free might be worth the risk of trusting Jacob. But if he’s wrong, and Jacob Hunt is just another selfish curtain chaser, Clay will find himself stuck on the wrong side of that curtain. Forever.

Warning: This novella involves alley hookups, wasted whiskey and a trip into the otherworld.

Chapter One

He could always tell the writers. They walked with glazed expressions, annoyance flickering across their faces whenever someone dared interrupt their reverie with small talk. Especially if said small talk was about the weather. They were the ones who looked down the alley with a mix of wonder and fear in their eyes, as if the story written in the stained brick and cracked pavement spoke to them. Continue reading →

I am excited to announce that my first novel will soon be published by Loose Id. Written for their Homecoming call, Shatter By Glass is a fantasy/mystery/romance with a M/M couple. An excerpt will be coming soon.

Shatter by Glass Cover Loose Id Novel Erotica Romance Emmi Lawrence

Shatter By Glass cover designed by April Martinez

Shatter By Glass

Coming Sept 30th, 2014

When Detective Brettoni Rhodes is assigned to investigate a murder that occurred in the desert outside his city, he doesn’t anticipate the victim to be a man straight out of his past. Nor is he at all prepared to find clues that the murderer could be an old lover he hasn’t seen for twelve years. An old lover who, once they reconnect, isn’t interested in staying an ex.

With Luca Baino going from old lover to new lover all over again, Brett struggles with whether they’re on the path to something real. And if it they are, what then? Because in the desert city of DaSunder, death is the punishment for murder and Luca’s conjuring abilities have put him at the top of a very short list of suspects.

In order to save the man he loves, Brett would have to go against the laws he’s sworn to uphold. But with evidence stacking up against Luca and conjured creatures appearing in the city, Brett doesn’t know if he can protect Luca… Or whether he should even try.
