Bad Habits by Hollis Shiloh



Bad Habits
by Hollis Shiloh

Jack and Cameron have a good thing going. Jack is a burned out reporter and Cam is a fox shifter who gives him tips. They also meet up to play pinball...and to have sex. It's a nice arrangement, no messy feelings involved, no pressure that neither one of them needs.

Cam is frightened by the idea of falling in love—been there, done that, got the scars to show for it—and Jack's last relationship ended in a painful breakup. But things have been changing lately.

When there's only one guy in the world you really want, is it going to work to keep pretending it's just casual?

Magic At Sea

 


Magic At Sea
by Hollis Shiloh

When Captain Reynard gets a magician assigned to his sailing ship, he's resigned to the worst. He's a fighting man of the King's Navy, and magicians are a nasty lot. But something about Jessop is irresistible.

Magician Jessop, small, grumpy, extremely touchy and on edge, has been deeply damaged by life. Touch is not easy for him, strangers are not easy for him, but against all odds, the crew takes him under their wing, and most of them are very kind to him. The captain especially turns out to be a gentle man, and his warmth undoes something in Jessop.

The captain falls in love with his magician—but does not dare speak those words aloud. The magician feels things for Reynard, as much as he's able to for anyone. Perhaps they might work their way to a satisfactory conclusion, commitment and happiness and a life together. But war is a dangerous time for love...

News & Upcoming

Kindle Unlimited...?

I think it's time to test Kindle Unlimited again.  I'm planning to test it with the books in the "Marrying Men" series (except the first book which will remain free everywhere). 

I will let you know when the books are in KU.   If you want to get them elsewhere, get them now while you can!  (links below)

Scribd | Apple | Kobo | Amazon | Google Play | Barnes and Noble


Shifter Books...?

In other news, I think I will be writing more shifter books.  I enjoy them.  I just don't know if the ones in future will fit neatly into a series.  It's very much a work in progress!  I really liked having a long-running series, but it started to become too restrictive with the specific job requirements.  


Smashwords!

Many of my books are now on Smashwords 


Libraries

Many of my titles are available on Hoopla, etc.  If your library grants access to ebooks, 

mine are quite likely there.  They're free to you.  If you are interested, please check it out!  


Upcoming Book:

Here's the cover for an upcoming release:

It's still very much in the editing stage, but I will put it up for pre-order at some point.  :-)


Take care

Christmas With Alfie


Christmas With Alfie
by Hollis Shiloh


Henry knows what he likes—and what he doesn't.  He likes Christmas far more than one is supposed to, and gets started with his decorations far sooner, too.  He likes quiet days, and he gets annoyed with his coworkers and their idea of humor.  Unfortunately, he also likes Alfie—short, chipper, insecure Alfie.  

Having  a crush on a coworker is not ideal.  But Alfie is now seeking him out, spending time with him, and...wanting to be his friend?  Henry knows better than to get his hopes up, but his days are certainly brightened by Alfie's presence.

Alfie's life is messier than Henry's, even though most people consider him more normal.  He really needs a friend right now.  And possibly something more than a friend?

When Jack's old friend Peter is on the run and injured, Jack agrees to help him out. Ollie has severe misgivings about all of it, but he can't let Jack handle it alone. With little to go on and no chance to investigate, they have to make a plan to get Peter out of the country safely. Meanwhile, Jack's abusive ex is being investigated for murder. Jack and Ollie try to dodge the murder investigation, with mixed results. But one nosy cop thinks Jack knows things he's not telling, and doesn't plan on letting go that easily.

Of Partners and Friends (shifters & partners #30)


Of Partners and Friends 

shifters & partners #30

by Hollis Shiloh


Can Rory's friends at the diner help him figure out what to do?

Wolf shifter Rory knows he's not great at a lot of things, but it hurts when his own partner is fed up with him. Working with the cops isn't easy. It's even harder now that Walt, his partner, has started to hate him.

Rory struggles to navigate the challenges—and dangers—of his life, without any meaningful help from his partner. He needs another option, but he doesn't want to leave the friends he's made here, much less go back to his awful pack.

His friends at the diner offer advice, especially the clever, prickly fox shifter Elias. But can Rory follow through on it? Meanwhile, Rory and Elias are getting closer, but not in all the fun ways.

Unfortunately, Elias is off the menu. He only does committed relationships. And Rory can't do that. Right?
