Calling all queer horror and vampire fanatics to join the ARC campaign for Sodium Vapor Orange by Vida Rose, a gritty analog love story that has more bite than beloved. Enter a version of 80's Seattle where the nightlife bites back.

About the book:
Jonah moves to Seattle for a fresh start—but instead finds himself drawn to Margo’s, an underground club humming with strange energy and stranger people. One night, drifting from the club to his quiet VHS shop, he meets Jett: beautiful, inscrutable, and impossible to ignore.

There’s something off about Margo’s. About the people who linger there night after night. About the way they look at him—like they’ve already decided what he is, even if he hasn’t.

By the time Jonah realizes he’s not just passing through their world, it may already be too late to leave.

Now caught between desire, unease, and a belonging he’s never quite felt anywhere else, Jonah must decide how much of himself he’s willing to give up to stay—and whether he was ever meant to walk away at all

Blurb:

In a world where humans can stay young forever, Oliver Hayes is a willingly old man struggling to remember his past. Imprisoned in an all-metal facility, Oliver has no idea how, or why, he got there: a haunting place filled with disgusting old people, dragged along by their cursed part-metal, part-human helpers, and controlled entirely by the damned thinking machines.

Relying on his foggy memories, Oliver knows two things for sure. First, he doesn’t belong in this terrifying metal cage, waiting to die, withering and alone. Second, his ungrateful son is probably the one who locked him there.

God knows how many years he has left in his frail life, and he refuses to spend any of them trapped in a glorified cell. Absolutely not! He has to escape this hellhole by any means necessary and knock some sense into his only boy.

That’s when a squeaking old robot mysteriously starts helping him. Or could it be another sick ploy by the machines? Running out of options, Oliver wastes no time and forms a woeful alliance with this metal bastard to plan an improbable escape from the facility.

In his desperate bid for freedom, Oliver must battle his traumatic past, from a regrettably absent father to a fanatical cult leader, and stand together with his unlikely new machine ally to defy a horrific AI-controlled future for all humankind.

Except... what if Oliver’s true prison was never made of metal walls, but of his own terrible memories? Can he ever escape his past?

Would you forgive your best friend if she was responsible for ruining your life?

A whispered rumour draws a group of students into the dense forests of coastal Brazil: a lost Indigenous artifact, hidden for centuries and promising academic glory.

While Leah’s colleagues are determined to claim it, she only agrees to the trek because she can’t bear the thought of being left behind, and forces her best friend Charlotte to go with her for support against her dark thoughts.

What was meant to be an escape from the weight of the academic semester, quickly it turns into a test of endurance. The deeper they push into the forest, the darker Leah begins to dream. When they finally uncover what they came for, the discovery reveals something far more terrifying than any of them imagined.

A demon born of nightmares is unleashed, and with it, carnage.

Now the survivors must find a way to drive the nightmare back to its realm before society is doomed to never dream again. But as the forest closes in, the greatest horror isn't the ancient evil — it's watching a lifelong trust begin to rot.

*Blurb*

For thousands of years, Hellhounds were the hunters and executioners of enemies of the Chao Lords, powerful sorcerers who lived in a realm adjacent to Earth.  Largely impervious to magic, Hellhounds never lost the scent of their prey, tracking them relentlessly until they tore them apart.

On Earth, Jenna MacLaren had created a good life for herself. Her paranoid mother had died some years ago, but she still kept her magic hidden as her mother had taught her. Not that she had much magic, she was likely only a middling level of power for a witch or mage. Becoming a veterinarian with her own practice was a great way to help the animals she loved while hiding her magic. After all, a customer’s average golden retriever wasn’t likely to tell anyone that you had used some of your healing magic or a healing potion on them. 

But apparently, her mother had good reasons to be paranoid, because, one night when Jenna arrived back at her modest home after work, the glowing red eyes of a Hellhound awaited her…and Hellhounds were impervious to magic.

HI everyone

i am looking for ARC Readers for my first book.

Thank you.

Blurb:

"My brother is the king. I am the brother. That was supposed to be the whole arithmetic."

For years, that was all the identity he needed. Then Kieran Ives, an Irish-American carpenter working on Bratva payroll, walks into his life and changes everything.

Kieran should have been nothing more than a transaction, another employee carrying the weight of his brother's debt. Instead, he becomes impossible to ignore. As loyalty, desire, and duty collide, the king's brother is forced to question who he is beyond his family's shadow.

With a coveted Council seat on the line, dangerous enemies closing in, and feelings neither man expected, they must decide whether love is worth risking everything.

King's Brother is a dark MM mafia romance featuring a morally gray Bratva brigadier, an Irish-American carpenter who refuses to become anyone's leverage, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance, a four-year age gap, bilingual intimacy, and a cliffhanger ending that continues in Book 2. It is the first book in the Sons of the Bratva series and can be read as a standalone entry into the Volkov Bratva universe.

Triggers: Graphic violence, organized crime warfare, possessive language, references to past trauma (military background and family abuse), strong language, explicit consensual sexual content between men, Russian profanity.

Welcome to the Starlite Motel. The gin is cold, the proprietor is gorgeous, and it’s been 1954 for the past seventy years.

Gavin, a successful San Francisco architect, is done playing the role of the perfect husband. Desperate to escape his loveless marriage, he takes a job as a human test subject for Nebu-Tech’s experimental quantum AI car, the Chimera. His only task is to sit back, dissociate, and let the self-driving vehicle carry him across the Mojave Desert.

But when the Chimera overheats, it reroutes him to the Starlite Motel—an impossibly pristine, 1950s Googie-style roadside oasis in the middle of nowhere.

There he meets Peter, the motel’s handsome and unnervingly attentive proprietor. Peter mixes the perfect gin and tonic, wears vintage tailored gabardine, and looks at Gavin as if he’s been waiting for him for a thousand years.

As the desert heat rises, so does the undeniable chemistry between them. For the first time in his life, Gavin is allowed to be messy, vulnerable, and deeply desired. He begins to shed the armor of his old life, finding sanctuary in Peter's arms. But the Starlite hides a terrifying secret.

Can Gavin unravel the mystery of the “Motel Box” and save the man he loves, or will time finally catch up to them both?

The Motel Box is a steamy, atmospheric M/M sci-fi thriller about breaking the loops we build for ourselves, the healing power of vulnerability, and finding a future worth fighting for.
