Can a game night bring these two together?

Miles O’Donnell was a comic artist in San Francisco. With multi-colored hair and eyes to match his sassy personality, Miles never had trouble getting attention. Unfortunately, most couldn’t satisfy what he really needed…

Shane Long was an engineer who just turned forty and wasn’t sure there was a partner out there for him when they all complained he was too big. Until a chance meeting and a game of Truth or Dare put a certain size queen in Shane’s path.

It might take more truth than they expected to share!

Reviews:Trish on Goodreads wrote:

This was a super fun, sexy story about a rainbow haired twink and the muscular top who he falls for!

Miles is an unashamed size queen. He knows what he’s looking for, but he hasn’t found it yet. When he gets invited to a kinky game night, he thinks it’ll just be a bit of fun. Then he meets Shane…

Shane has struggled with partners in the past due to his size. It’s either a turn off, or the only turn on. When he meets Miles, he’s instantly attracted, but worried a guy half his size will run for the hills.

But when the party gets spicy and the two end up as the last two in the room, they have the chance to see if they’ll be the perfect fit 😆🍆


Truth or Dare, Cinderfella? was originally part of the Game Night: Truth or Dare anthology in 2024 as Size Queen. This edition is a standalone novella with an expanded story including a completely new epilogue, now connected to Frick's X Club series!

Enemy

R.A. Frick
Book Cover: Enemy
Editions:Kindle, Paperback

Is it really kidnapping and torture if they both get turned on by it?

Giorgio “George” Greco was the former leader of the Italian crime family in the Bay Area, but he was done with that life. Children grown and wife long dead, George was ready to start exploring what it meant to be a civilian… and maybe get to know a new side of himself as a Daddy.

Vasily “Basil” Kiselov was fresh out of college and ready to prove himself to his Russian crime family in San Francisco. After being kept on the edge of their business, Basil goes on the hunt for an Enemy. When Basil tried to kill George, he ended up being the one under the gun.

The problem? George didn’t want to let go of the boy so easily.

Enemy is part of the Ruthless Daddies multi-author collab and a complete standalone. With a sadistic older Italian Daddy, a not-so-innocent Russian boy, and rival families, these two hurt each other until they like it! Want more deliciously morally gray Daddies and boys? Grab the whole series!

* See Author Note and Triggers inside: Enemy has connections to characters in my other books (X Club: For You), but is a standalone. Contains dub con, see CW for full details.

Tangents & Tachyons

J. Scott Coatsworth

Tangents & Tachyons is Scott's second anthology - six sci fi and sci-fantasy shorts that run the gamut from time travel to hopepunk and retro spec fic:

Eventide: Tanner Black awakes to find himself in his own study, staring out the window at the end of the Universe. But who brought him there, and why?

Chinatown: Deryn lives in an old San Francisco department store with his girlfriend Gracie, and scrapes by with his talent as a dreamcaster for the Chinese overlords. But what if a dream could change the world?

Across the Transom: What if someone or something took over your body on an urgent mission to save your world?

Pareidolia: Simon's not like other college kids. His mind can rearrange random patterns to reveal the images lurking inside. But where did his strange gift come from? And what if there are others like him out there too?

Lamplighter: Fen has a crush on his friend Lewin, who's in a competing guild. But when the world goes dark, only a little illumination can save it. And only Fen, Lewin and their friend Alissa can light the spark. A Liminal Sky short.

Prolepsis: Sean is the closeted twenty-five-year-old editor of an 80's sci-fi 'zine called Prolepsis. When an unabashedly queer story arrives from a mysterious writer, it blows open Sean's closet door, and offers him the chance to change the world - and the future.

Plus two flash fiction stories – The System and The Frog Prince, never before published.

This is the first time all of these stories have all been collected in one place.
