Lucky Dip by Clare London
Andy Jackson always knew that class 2C's help in preparing for the annual Christmas Fair would be a mixed blessing. Then he's paired up on the Lucky Dip with Greg, the man who dumped him but now can't keep away, the pupils are either lecturing him on his lovelife or losing bladder control, and no one's fixed the broken handle on the storage room. It may all be one whoopee cushion too far for him.
Butterscotch Kisses by Chrissy Munder
Matthew Morrison is determined to conquer his fear of heights and achieve a winning outcome. At least, that's what the best-selling, self-help book he's listening to promises. Being stuck on a three-story tower in the middle of a snowstorm wasn't part of the plan. With no St. Bernard in sight, it's Cute Ticket Guy Adam to the rescue, and an outcome Matthew never anticipated.
Wintertide by Lou Harper
May meets December when Jem and Oscar chance on each other at the Santa Monica Pier, only weeks before Christmas. The two men are separated by age, social status, and their taste in candy, yet if they are both naughty and nice, they might just find holiday cheer together.
When in Amsterdam… by Josephine Myles
Brandon is on his first visit to new boyfriend Jos's home country, just in time for their Sinterklaas celebrations. But an unexpected detour into a sex shop leads Brandon to new discoveries about himself, and a whole new dynamic to their relationship. The weather may be cold and damp, but Brandon and Jos soon heat things up!
A Pint of Beer, a Bag of Chips, and Thou by JL Merrow
What's the best gift a young man could get for Christmas? Mohawked saxophonist Liam wouldn't have picked the hideous collection of knitwear he's presented with by his mum and his aunties. He'd rather have the gorgeous older man he sees every day while busking at King's Cross. But with a little Christmas magic in the air, maybe those garish garments are just the thing for attracting a silver fox…

We had a great mix of authors and genres, with excerpts and covers everywhere you looked. So many in fact, we broke the site! While I apologize for not being able to get back on the site Monday due to the techinical difficulties, I really applaud the staff at TRS for working so hard to get it all back and running.
Congratulations to DBrown3400 who won a copy of The Scenic Route! for participating.
I’m hoping they will have another event in December, and if they do, look forward to seeing you there!

Oh, the best laid plans and all of that. Otherwise known as “if I didn’t write it down…”. All that muttering translates to my realizing I forgot to put up my “What’s happening in October” post earlier this month. Sorry about that.
So here’s my quick invitation for everyone to join me and a HUGE assortment of authors at The Romance Studio as they celebrate their 2nd Annual Spookapalooza this weekend! They’re giving away a NOOK to one lucky reader plus a lot of other prizes — over 175! Books, gift cards, jewelry, bath collections and more, more, more… including an ebook copy of my short story, The Scenic Route. It’s all at their party site and the event runs through midnight EST Halloween, October 31st.

Having been brought up in a household that didn’t celebrate the December Holidays I was quite amused when a friend politely pointed out I currently have 5 Christmas/Holiday stories available for sale through Dreamspinner Press.
Imagine that.
Better with Sprinkles: College student Tom Molina isn’t too interested when his roommate Derek tries to convince him to leave his books and help out with the campus LGBTA Center’s annual Christmas cookie sale. But Derek has an ace in the hole to score the center Tom’s grandmother’s sugar cookie recipe: fellow volunteer Jeanette’s cousin just happens to be the organic chemistry T.A. Tom’s been dreaming about. Now Tom just has to hope Isaac is as interested in baking cookies as he is in chemistry and HIV awareness.
The Reason for the Season: All college student Adam Everett is trying to do is get to his sister’s house for holiday break. First his car breaks down, then his ride takes off to Vegas with his gas money, forcing Adam to come up with a Plan C. His last hope is a campus ride exchange, where he ends up with the reluctant Michael Brennan. When a “snowpocalypse” forces them to share a motel room, they soon find out there’s more than one reason for the chance happenings of the season.
Season’s Greetings - Russ Manners writes greeting cards for a living, except Christmas is fast approaching, there’s no snow, and he’s fallen behind on his big Easter Card project. He’s blaming the new guy, Ian Fiorillo, because ever since Ian was hired, Russ spends all his time writing bad Valentine rhymes to Ian’s best asset. What Russ doesn’t realize is that Ian would love to help him appreciate the wonders of Christmas in Florida.
A Gift of Ash and Frost – (Historical Romance) When new residents come to the Grange, Mathias applies for a job at the house and is hired on at the housekeeper’s request for the Christmas season. He finds there a temptation of the body and heart in the form of the house’s master, one that he is ill-equipped to handle or resist … not that he has the desire to do so.
Giving Gifts - Seth is having a scarily good time at the office Christmas party this year. He owes it all to his hoped-for boyfriend, Oscar, who turned him into a carefree programmer from an uptight nerd. If Mr. Saroc, the company CEO’s assistant, would quit dogging his steps at work, Seth believes his happiness with Oscar will be complete in time for kissing under the mistletoe.
Santa’s Little Helper – Left in the lurch without a Santa, Rob grabs a gorgeous guy he sort-of recognizes from the office to wear the red suit, and it’s immediate attraction on both their parts. But Rob’s ex, John, knows something important about the jolly ol’ fellow, something he hopes doesn’t ruin the holiday magic.
Don’t Forget: There’s a 20% Holiday Discount from Dreamspinner Press! That’s right. I just love it when they do this. This discount is available now through the end of the year and each customer can use it twice!! Definitely worthy of an overuse of exclamation points. The code to enter at checkout is: HolidayDreams (without the cool colors).
And a NEW ADDED BONUS: This year let Dreamspinner make your eBook dreams come true. Each day from Dec. 26- Dec. 31, they will draw one name from the customers that purchased during the month of December to win every eBook on their registered account’s wish list.
