A Little Lie by Max Turner

A sprite and a pixie walk into a bar— Christmas is a strange time for fae folk living in the mortal realm... Awen had a discomfort with Christmas. It didn’t make sense to him that any of the fae celebrated it; it wasn’t part of their traditions. A time when humans spoke of fairies and elves as though they were those creatures of lore and not their living, breathing neighbours? It was unsettling. And for Awen, another reminder of how apart from the world he was. Brock hated Christmas; there was something about it that stripped him of his usual confidence and charm. It was hard to be charming around all the happy couples when he knew his own happiness was not an option. Instead, year after year, he had to endure his mother asking when he would finally settle down, knowing he’d never get up the nerve to tell her the truth. His truth. A Little Lie is a sweet and smutty age difference Christmas MM romance where a nightclub hook-up becomes a fake relationship with a HEA, in a magical place called Three Rivers City (... Truro).

Dancing With The Count by Max Turner

Neither seasoned dance pro Tommy Miller or celebrity chef Count Christian De Clare want to be the first same-sex pairing on Celebrity Ballroom, but it’s happening. The pressure is on to not get eliminated or become the season’s novelty act… which would be a lot easier if they actually liked each other. This sweet, tropey Christmas-time romance is a short read chock full of intimacy, sweetness, and of course, dancing! The quick plot and medium heat level are just right for a cozy night in.

The Child of Hameln by Max Turner

Elk Pass is a town cloaked in darkness and plagued by an unknown evil, where twenty years earlier all but one of the town’s children were stolen. That remaining child, now the deputy sheriff, is left to unravel corruption and cover up when his mentor, the town sheriff, dies unexpectedly. The mystery unfolds as a snow storm blows in, threatening to isolate the town, leaving Deputy Bobby Taylor to deal with a plague of rats and the monsters, both human and fae, that follow. This supernatural mystery and light horror is a dark fable set in 1980’s small town USA, and is a retelling of the German folktale The Pied Piper of Hameln.
