Cattle Valley: About the Girls
print edition of Truth or Dare and Fool's Gold

Sometimes love appears when you least expect it.

Truth or Dare: Naomi Rivers has the book store she's always wanted, but doesn't have one special person to share her life. Everything changes when a sexy blonde author walks into her store.

Courtney Cross is on a book signing tour, and decides to vacation in Cattle Valley. The laid back atmosphere provides a calm get-away, and the backdrop for her next novel. The cute red-head at the bookstore doesn't hurt, either.

They fall in love, but while Naomi thrives in Cattle Valley, Courtney has her own life in Chicago. The ultimate game of Truth or Dare helps them figure out their lives.

Fool’s Gold: Adeline Murphy heads to Cattle Valley looking for a fresh start. She's invested every dime and purchased the local bed and breakfast. With a cranky girlfriend in tow, Addie's devastated to discover the inn has been vandalised, no source of income and a mounting stack of bills.

Melissa Danes' quiet existence is shaken by the arrival of Addie and her surly tagalong, Chloe. Mel discovers Addie has several barriers to cross, including repairing the inn and her damaged self-esteem. She sees more than Fool's Gold in Addie, but needs Addie to see it too.

Night Shift

Homicide Detective Cullen Ryder is worried. Someone is brazenly killing drug pushers on the grimy backstreets of Chicago. When the monthly murders jump to weekly and draw the focus of the chief of police, the Chicago P.D. starts jumping, too. The chief assigns a special task force to the case, much to Ryder's chagrin.

Handsome, dark-skinned Trevor Stone has testosterone and attitude to spare. As the head of the task force, he marches in giving orders right and left. Ryder doesn't like being bossed around, but he does like Stone. Maybe a little too much. When he discovers the feelings are mutual and the men fall into bed, neither is sure where the relationship is headed. Both know one thing--there’s a murderer on the loose whom they need to catch, before he catches up with them. (m/m)

This book gets a rousing 5. The sex is explicit and dirty. The dialogue is very real. Even though this is a short read/novella the characters are well developed, even the minor ones! Do not let this book pass you by!" Acquanetta Ferguson, The San Diego Examiner

"NIGHT SHIFT is another book in Total E-Bounds Lust Bites series and I fell in love in these guys and this cute story. There are bite your nail moments and some laugh out loud moments that easily cut the tension of the book and makes it all that more realistic and a perfect late evening read." ~ Erotic Horizon Reviews

"Night Shift is the best thing I’ve read by Ms. Byrnes. Can’t wait for the next m/m story from this talented writer." ~ 4 1/2 Stars, British Bulldog, Rainbow Reviews

Rose & Thorn Society 2: Never Say Never

Adam Reeve can't keep his eyes, or his hands, off the sexy new stud working out at Full Throttle Fitness. Adam's policy is not to jeopardise his job by having flings with clients, but tall and gorgeous Nick is too hard to resist. Plus, it’s been a serious dry spell since Adam's long-time love, Mitch Silver, callously walked out on him.

Nicolas Fontana is instantly captivated by the handsome personal trainer, sweet talking his way into Adam’s bed and his heart. He doesn’t tell his new love about his desire to dominate. Instead, he takes things slow, leading the less experienced man down the D/s path Nick craves.

Mitch returns with thoughts of reclaiming Adam. He’s amazed and surprised by the changes in his old lover's life. Sure, Nick is handsome and definitely hot. But Mitch would never let anyone dominate him. Never. (m/m, m/m/m)

"NEVER SAY NEVER is a wonderful second book in the Rose & Thorn Society series. I loved meeting these three guys – they make fun for themselves, they were confident and had a sense of family and caring about them that you can’t help but admire.

Ms. Byrnes wonderful style is full frontal in this book, with her pacey scenes, concentrated plot lines and characters that refuse to let me go, NEVER SAY NEVER was so worth the wait." ~ Erotic Horizon Reviews

Dan's ready for the sex, but not so sure about life on the outside. When he stumbles upon a homicide and runs from the scene in the same way he did in the past, suddenly he's a wanted man. Dan must either solve the crime or risk returning to the place he dreads the most--the prison that changed his life.
