Author Bio:
Short, sexy and sweet— where a little love goes a long way.
That’s the best way to describe Jackie Nacht’s stories. She
was introduced to M/M Romance through her sister, Stephani, and read it for
years. Then, she thought it was time to put her own stories on paper. Jackie
began writing short and sweet stories that ended with a happily ever after.
Thinking back to her own book addiction, where there were
many nights Jackie stayed up way too late so she could read just one more
chapter— yeah, right— Jackie decided to write short romances for young adults
as well as adults. Hopefully, they will give high school and college students,
or working men and women something they can read during their lunch hour, in
between classes or just when they want to briefly get away from the daily
stresses of everyday life.

Blurb(s):
Two years ago, TL came across his fire
ant mate, Rio. Duty kept them apart, and they were only able to love each
other from afar.
When Striker escapes the tortures of
the anti-venom pack, running into the wild, he didn't expect to encounter his
mate. However, he is a shell of his former self, broken from the abuse done to
him.
Rio saved TL once, and when his TL
comes to ask for help, Rio finds himself shocked that the venom he’s always
loved is holding their mate, a mate they’ll have to heal together.

Excerpt:
Chapter One
Two years
ago
TL was in a
fucking load of trouble. This nasty bitch of a viper was giving him one hell of
a fight. He swung his arm and landed a punch to her horned nose. She hissed and
came back at him with a wicked-looking blade. The viper was completely bald,
her entire body covered in snakeskin. She was lean and sleek, but TL knew
firsthand, she was very fucking lethal. He jumped back as she swung, and he
went for his hunting knife.
The snake had
already gotten a piece of one of his wings, making it completely impossible for
him to fly his way out of this situation.
The viper
female She was strong, and he was in her territory. Why the hell hadn't he
waited for Boone? TL sliced the knife through the air, causing a deep gash to
her chest but not enough to bring her down. She charged him, crazed, fangs
leaking the venom TL wanted nothing to do with. He kicked out and missed. She
tackled him to the ground, sinking her blade deep in his side.
“Ahhh!” TL
screamed out in utter agony. The white-hot pain caused him to fall back,
completely defenseless as his enemy straddled him.
With the last
of his strength, he pushed up, slicing the viper under the arm. She screamed,
hissed, wriggling around, more snake than human, much like the venom she
presented right on top of him. TL attempted to get out from underneath, still
bleeding like crazy. He managed to break free, and try to gain as much distance
as he could while unable to get off his damn hands and knees.
She came back,
maddened and enraged, and TL held up his arms, waiting for his end. She
slithered toward him at a speed only venom of superior strength could match.
A boot shot
out in front of him, connecting with her face, just a mere feet from his own
body. He glanced up to see a man standing above him with a ball mace in his
hand and enough other weapons on his body for a small army. The muscular man
pulled a machete and went after the female. TL’s head fell back. He didn’t even
have enough strength in him to see who won. Closing his eyes, he let the
darkness take him.
