And Manny Makes Seven, Cream and Screwdrivers coming December 3

The next Mannies book is coming out on December 3!

This one was fun to write, although with a family of six siblings, it was also a challenge!

When Adam's parents died three years ago, he kept his five younger siblings together, playing parent as best a twenty-one year old could under the circumstances. Now his mentor Helena has passed away from cancer and Adam doesn't know what to do. He's shocked, but grateful when a reading of the will determines that he's not only inherited her beloved shit-zhus, but also the house, a generous trust for everyone's education, and three million dollars, some of it earmarked for hiring a nanny.

Hutch has worked as a nanny since he was nineteen and took over the care of his neighbors children when both parents were killed in separate missions overseas. He's worked with several families since and feels confident he can handle five children aged four through seventeen.

Hutch's arrival is just what Adam needs and as Hutch begins to turn the big house from Helena's place into their home, Adam and his siblings begin to see Hutch as more than just the nanny.

Can a path of tragedy and sorrow turn the corner to happiness and love?

This will be out on December 3 at Torquere Press.

Also coming out the same day from Torquere is the next Hammer Club novel -- Cream

Cream, a Hammer Novel

Storm owns the Beat & Cream bakery, popular with the Hammer Club members for its name, the amazing pastries Storm bakes, and his willingness to make all sorts of naughty creations. Not into the lifestyle himself, Storm loves the punny nature of the name of his establishment and everyone he's met have been nice.

Zeb, an unattached Top and Hammer Club member hears about the bakery and knows he must check it out for himself, given he has the world's biggest sweet tooth. He finds the pastries delicious, but he's even more taken with the owner himself, and sets out to woo Storm.

It's easy to fall in love with someone who makes you laugh and brings your life joy, but what happens when that happens with someone who isn't into the same things you are? Zeb and Storm are about to find out if they can find some mutual ground, or if Zeb's lifestyle will keep them apart.

And the collection of Hammer Club short stories featuring Marcus and Jim, Billy and Montana, and Simon and Jeremy also comes out December 3!

My God It's Monday, holiday edition

I am having a relaxing and extremely fun time visiting with BA Tortuga and Julia Talbot. There has been so much laughter, the kind that is deep and bellyful and continues on long enough to make your eyes tear up.

We have tons of wonderful Thanksgiving food planned out. Everything from mimosas in the morning to turkey and sweet potatoes, deep fried brussels sprouts and cranberry sauce. Mustn't forget the dessert -- pecan pie, pumpkin pie, cranberry salad just to name a few.

Share your Thanksgiving menu (or just your favorite Thanksgiving food) with me in the comments for a chance to win a copy of No Regrets, which comes out on November 30. I'll randomly draw a winner on Saturday the 29th. If you don't celebrate thanksgiving, you can still enter by telling me what your favorite celebratory meal/food is.

I hope everyone has a wonderful week, whether you celebrate Thanksgiving or not.

Coming Soon, the Holiday Stories Edition

I have five Holiday themed stories coming out in the next few weeks. That's more than any other year when it's been one or two, which makes me happy. I do love Christmas, so it's always a pleasure to write holiday themed stories -- even if it is in the middle of July!

Speaking of the holidays, I have Christmas Cards and I'm not afraid to send them! If you'd like one, please email me at seanmichaelwrites @ gmail . com (without the commas) with your mailing address and I will pop one in the mail to you when I get home.

I don't have access to my files while I'm on holiday, so unfortunately, I can't share any excerpts of these stories, but I can share the blurbs and let you know when they'll be available.

The first one coming out was actually written quite a few years ago. It's been out of print for over a year and I'm so pleased that Amber agreed to re-publish it for me, right in time for Christmas, too! So if you haven't read No Regrets yet, now's your chance!

Drake is a musician and singer with a career that has spun out of his control. When he gets an invitation from an old friend to come and spend some downtime in the country, he happily turns off his cell phone and heads to the middle of nowhere.

Artist Scott hopes Drake will find some peace on his little farm, and sets about making his old buddy right at home. Can the two of them fight off Drake's fame and find happiness together, at least for the Christmas season?

No Regrets will be available on Sunday November 30 at Amber.

The next Christmas story to be released is a part of Dreamspinner's "Celebrate" Advent Calendar. Beginning December 1, the stories will be available individually, but if you pre-order the package, you get all 31 stories delivered throughout the month for a much lower price than buying them individually.

Check out the whole package here.

My story is The Swag Man Delivers.

Orpheus “O” Drummond, a recent Ph.D. graduate, is visiting Australia after defending his thesis, and being dumped by his boyfriend. While alone on the beach in Australia was not how he’d originally planned on spending his Christmas, when O runs into Gage, he figures Santa knew exactly what he was doing.

Gage is traveling away from his Texan home, trying to “find himself.” When he finds O instead, he doesn’t think things could have worked out better. Together Gage and O celebrate Christmas in the best way they can think of.

Next up is Guns, Leather and Tinsel, featuring the owner of a biker bar and an undercover leather-daddy cop. Strangely enough there are gunrunners, lots of leather and also some tinsel in this book!

Undercover cop Brian “Boom” Simpson is working the week before Christmas so the guys with families don’t have to. He’s on the hunt for a motorcycle club that’s running guns. His work leads him to The Rusty Tailpipe, a biker bar just outside of town where the Bloody Sundays hang out.

Raptor Evans, owner of The Rusty Tailpipe, loves his life. He owns a bit of land, and his bar, where he doesn’t put up with any trouble, running a tight ship with the help of his trusty baseball bat. When Boom comes walking in, the drool worthy stud turns Raptor’s world upside down, in more ways than one.

Can Boom and Raptor’s fledgling relationship survive Boom’s job, the Bloody Sundays, gunrunners, and Christmas?

This one will be out on December 3 from Resplendence Publishing.

After that is my story with Changeling. They do a different theme every year and this year's theme was Peppermint Twist. I had a lot of naughty pun with this one. (And no that isn't a typo.) 

Bad Elf, No Candy Cane

When candy maker Syllabub runs away from the North Pole, Claus sends his best enforcer after the wayward elf.

Power is good at his job, but when he finds Syllabub in the sweltering heat of Ottawa in July, the last thing he wants to do is return to the North Pole.

Is there something between them? Or has the heat gone to Power's head? Only time will tell.

This one is coming out on December 12 (Changeling is usually early, though, so look for it on the 11th!)

And finally, we have my annual Hammer Christmas Auction story. I don't have the cover for this one yet.

 It's been two years since Neil's Master Chris passed away unexpectedly and he's ready for someone to touch him again. More than ready. The problem is that everyone is respectfully keeping their distance. Participating in the annual charity Hammer Auction seems like the perfect opportunity to announce his readiness, and to get some of the touches he craves so badly at the same time.

To Neil's surprise, his best friend and neighbor, Master Dalton makes the winning bid, leaving Neil to wonder if he must continue exist alone and untouched. Master Dalton has a secret, though, one that might change Neil's life forever.

This one will be out on December 17 from Torquere Press.

Believe it or not, I have five other releases in the month of December that aren't related to the holidays! That's what happens when I do holiday themed stories on top of 'regular' stories! I'll save them for another blog post.

Happy Sunday!

My God it's Monday

Today was spent wrapping up a million and one little things so that I can relax and have an amazing time on my holidays, which start tomorrow at an ungodly hour (I have to leave the house at 4am). I will still post here and on twitter and facebook I'm sure as the mood takes me, but I also may not.

Meanwhile, I got to see my part of the world entirely blanketed by snow today. It is so beautiful, it takes my breath away.

Everyone be good, or at least don't do anything I wouldn't do - which yes, leaves you wiiiiiiiide open!

Throwback Thursday - Fine as Frog Hair

If you have any requests for Throwback Thursday, just let me know!

Today, I'm throwing back to one of the earlier novels I wrote: Fine as Frog Hair. Did you know that's an expression? I first heard it from BA Tortuga, and new it would make a great title. And you know me and titles, we're not fast friends at all - in fact that's an understatement, titles are the hardest part of writing! - so if I have a title before I have a book, I have to run with it!

Fine As Frog Hair follows Russ as he sets out to see America and finds something even better in Trey, a true cowboy and all around good folks. Russ and Trey have a wonderful guy next-door quality, taking their romance one step at a time, but when sparks fly it heats up fast, and we’re swept right along with them. These two have it all, from laughter to heartache to the hottest sex West of the Mississippi, all the while proving that while life isn’t perfect, it’s just fine by them. Fine as frog hair.

Somewhat Smutty (and seasonal!) Excerpt:

They finished their coffee, Trey's hand still just touching him as they listened to carols playing on the radio. He reached for a cookie and nibbled at it. The sugar was sweet in his mouth and on his lips and he licked them and his fingers to clean them.

A soft moan split the air, Trey's touches stuttering. He glanced up, fingers still in his mouth. It wasn't until he saw the look in Trey's eyes that he realized how suggestive what he was doing was. His cheeks colored.

Trey blushed dark. "I'm sorry... It's just... You're so sexy, Russ..."

"Me?" He shook his head. "Now you, with those long legs and that sweet little butt? You're the sexy one."

Trey's eyes went wide and those cheeks got darker. "You like my butt? Russ... You... You're a damned fine man."

His own cheeks were hot enough he was sure they were going to be starting a fire any minute now. He stood up. "Floor's getting awful hard." Not to mention it was awfully far away from Trey.

"There's room by me." Trey patted the sofa.

"I was hoping there would be."

He set his cup on the little side table that held the lamp and sat next to Trey, right next to him. His hand landed on Trey's knee and he stroked softly.

Trey put his mug down, too, hand sliding around his waist. "Can I kiss you?"

"Yes, please, Trey." He leaned forward, meeting Trey halfway.

Their lips met, Trey's tongue sliding into his mouth so carefully. Coffee and sugar and whiskey and cream and cinnamon -- Trey tasted just like Christmas. He sucked lightly on Trey's tongue, need expanding in his belly and rushing down into his balls. A low noise slipped into his mouth, Trey's hand tightening on his waist, pulling him closer. He could feel Trey all along his side and their legs were pressed together. He put his arm around Trey's shoulders, holding on, staying close. They fit together well; Trey's body was warm and relaxed, not soft, though, the muscles firm against him.

Russ lost himself in the kisses, in the way Trey's mouth fit against his, in the tastes and scents that were Trey. One of Trey's hands slid around the nape of his neck, massaging, rubbing, making him melt. He wasn't a virgin, had made out with guys before, but he couldn't ever remember kissing feeling so good, so amazing.

Trey leaned back a little, breathing a little quick, dark eyes almost black. "You taste good."

He nodded. "So do you. Better than anything I've ever tasted." He brought their mouths together again. "I don't want to stop kissing you."

There's a smutty excerpt here from my smuterday post, and here's another one right here.

Smutty Excerpt:

Dick went through the leather costumes on the bed, trying to figure which one to try on first. Ralph had dropped them off earlier so he could find something for the Mardi Gras party they were going to next week.

And no one was home, making it the perfect opportunity.

He was half in this contraption, all straps and metal rings, when he thought he heard the door.

Nothing happened for a few minutes, then he heard something hit the floor. Rig was standing in the doorway, briefcase at his feet, blinking. "Jesus Christ. You... Oh, Pretty..."

His cheeks heated and fuck, he was too old to be getting all nervous and hot-cheeked like that, but all he was wearing was the leather separating his balls from his cock, holding both tight, and the... he supposed it was a harness, though it wasn't quite on right. He thought maybe the straps at the bottom were supposed to go around his thighs.

It really was more than a little... perverse.

Of course, when a fresh-from-work, still in his suit Rig just stumbled up to him and dropped to those skinny knees, mouth sinking over his cock?

Perverse wasn't a bad thing.

"Fuck... oh fuck." He moaned, legs spreading just a bit so he didn't topple over. Fuck, that felt good.

Rig was moaning, mouth working his prick like it had been days, those white curls bobbing furiously. He was maybe going to have to keep this one... It was his last thought before he came, Rig just Hoovering the spunk right out of him.

Rig drank him down, then kept sucking, hands tracing the leather, his skin, gray eyes hot and bright as they looked up at him.

He smiled down, fingers stroking through Rig's curls. "So you like this one?"

Rig blinked, staring up. "There's more?"

He chuckled and nodded back at the bed. "Ralph dropped off a bunch so we could try them on for that party. You're supposed to wear this under your shirt and pants, right?"

Rig laughed, mouth moving over his belly. "I reckon. There's no way Rock's letting you out of the house like this."

He snorted. "No way I'm letting me out of the house like this." He stroked Rig's cheek, traced the man's lower lip. "Of course, I might start walking around the house like this..."

"Oh, I could fucking vote for that." His fingers were drawn into that warm mouth, sucked gently.

"Me, too," he whispered, cock jerking as Rig loved on his fingers.

Rig's eyes got darker, hotter, a low sound vibrating his fingers.

"Well would you fucking look at that. It's a fucking porno, right in my own bedroom!" Rock's voice was thick, husky.
