The Master's Pet by Stormy Glenn
Publisher: Siren Publishing
ISBN: 1-60601-543-5
Buy Link: http://www.bookstrand.com/product-themasterspet-14865-192.html

The world is in ruins, society divided into those who protect and those who need protection. That protection comes at a price, one that Jiri discovers when he's sold to Zane, leader of the Death Dealers.

He's shocked when Zane explains he wants Jiri as his own personal sex pet. But Jiri can't deny he's intrigued by Zane's proposal.

He wears the collar and leash Zane provides and prepares himself to be a possession. But the more he gets to know Zane, the more Jiri wants something more. He wants Zane to want him for him, and not just as a pet. But before Jiri can convince Zane of his desire, an attack comes from The Night Dwellers, one that could destroy them both.

The Pauper's Prize by Mark Alders
Publisher: eXtasy Books

The ruling family of Corrus needs an heir and the Viscount’s son, Wilhelm, must provide it. He is to be wed to Catherine within the week to ensure the family name continues. He, however, doesn’t love her. He can’t love her, for she cannot give him what he really desires. Wilhelm needs a man to satisfy him.

That man is the most unlikely person in the whole town, a pauper named Pavel.

Will Wilhelm give up everything, his title, his wealth, and all his family inheritance just for the chance to be with Pavel? Or will Catherine make sure he marries her so she can solidify her place as a ruler of Corrus?

A Different Light Event: Book Signing & Reading w/ Paul Bens & Ann Somerville

BOOK: Kelland & Remastering Jerna
AUTHOR: Paul Bens & Ann Somerville
DATE: Friday, October 30
TIME: 7:30 p.m.
LOCATION: A Different Light Bookstore, San Francisco

ABOUT PAUL BENS: A native Kentuckian, Paul Bens has lived in Los Angeles for the past twenty-five years and has worked in just about every segment of the entertainment industry. His short stories have appeared in Cemetery Dance, HeavyGlow, Velvet Mafia: Dangerous Queer Fiction, Outsider Ink, Chick Flicks, Twisted Tongue, The Egg Box, Scared Naked, and Bleeding Quill. Kelland, a dark look at truth and lies and all of the gray areas in between, marks Bens' debut as a novelist.

KELLAND: When the Truth is All That Matters

The truth begins with a family evacuated from Saigon during the final days of the Việt Nam War. Or perhaps it begins later, with a devoutly Catholic child with the voice of an angel who is troubled by visions both sacred and profane. Or perhaps later still, with a couple drifting apart following a tragedy.

Kelland appears to them all in the guise of a small boy, a lover, a priest...Kelland is an enigma, a puzzle, and an almost imperceptible presence. Kelland is violence, sorrow, and joy. Kelland is the common thread tying five disparate strangers together.

Amazon: Kelland

ABOUT ANN SOMERVILLE: Author of the Darshian series of novels, including the immensely popular Kei's Gift, Ann Somerville is a native of Queensland, Australia, and a prolific author of gay speculative fiction. After many years living in London, she has returned home and now writes full time. She holds multiple degrees in science, history and literature, and her partner is a zoologist, so her head is full of occasionally useful knowledge about amazingly useless things. A complex novel of dominance and submission, Remastering Jerna, is the first of three books to be published by PD Publishing, and Ms. Somerville's appearance at A Different Light is likely to be her sole U.S. appearance for a number of years.

REMASTERING JERNA: In a world not unlike our own, Jerna Setiq has a perfect life, a beloved wife and two adored children, with his past desires and needs firmly put behind him. But when he’s falsely accused of child abuse and imprisoned, he’s cast into hell, with no apparent means of redemption, or regaining all that he’s lost.

In the most unlikely of places, in the most unpromising of circumstances, fate offers Jerna his second chance and a path to freedom. With the cruelly fascinating Tolomy, a dominant in need of education and a patient submissive, Jerna dares to satisfy the long denied passions of his dual nature – but will he risk losing what has become so dear to him, all over again?

Remastering Jerna is a complex, erotic story of redemption, love, and the contract of trust in a relationship of control and submission.

Taming the Wolf by Michelle Houston

I really enjoy the shapeshifter short stories by Michelle Houston, usually they always have something special, a detail that made it worth to read them. In this case she plays a bit on the classical elements of the genre, the Alpha males and omega men. Ben is a turned shapeshifter, meaning that he didn't born to it but was turned by a rogue werewolf. In this paranormal world, otherworldly creatures like shapeshifters law themself with a Council, and that Council first killed the rogue werewolf and then "trained" Ben to be a "good" werewolf. If Ben wasn't able to fit, he would have been killed. Lucky him he fit but there is a catch: Ben is gay and there are no gays in the born werewolves. So he decided to live in an self-imposed isolation in a remote cabin.

Years later he receives a call: another innocent man was turned and Ben has to teach him how to behave or he will be killed. Nathan is young and cute, and gay... I don't know if Ben is more interested in training him to avoid him to be killed or for the fear to loose is only chance to have a mate.

This is really only a short story, probably I summarized all the story in those two sentences above. But as I said, it was very nice, and above all I liked Nathan's character: he is a sweet omega werewolf, so sweet and tender that he can be the perfect mate for Ben, that is not a real Alpha male. In a bigger contest, Ben would have been not the leader, but there, in their isolated cabin, he is the king. And as I said, Nathan is perfect for him; for a real Alpha, probably Nathan doesn't fit, he is not enough perky, he is too sweet-tempered, but for Ben he is right like he is.
