(Moonlit Skies Book Two)
release date-10/31/14
Blurb:
Reed and Taz are still
adjusting to their new lives together when a medical emergency sends them
flying down to Florida on short notice. Not quite the way Reed pictured
introducing Taz to his family. Reed’s sister, Rene, welcomes the outgoing Taz
with open arms, and the kittenish alien charms Reed’s parents.
But someone isn’t quite
so enamored of Reed’s boyfriend—his homophobic older brother Jacob seems
determined to be as unpleasant as possible, and he’s making their visit very
uncomfortable. The sudden appearance of Reed’s controlling ex releases a flood
of insecurity and bad memories.
Reed begins to doubt himself, and his ability to love and be
loved in return. When strange items begin appearing as if out of nowhere, he
wonders if he’s being stalked, or is he just paranoid? What can Taz do to prove
to Reed that he’s more than enough man for this alien?
Excerpt:
Reed had Taz pressed against the door of
their apartment, kissing him for all he was worth, when his cell went off. He
recognized the little jangle that blared out of his phone as his mom’s ring
tone. Talk about being cockblocked in a major way.
“Need to answer that,” Reed panted into
Taz’s mouth.
“Okay.” Taz rubbed his body against Reed’s,
clutching at him.
“Shit, babe.” Reed grabbed Taz’s hands.
He barely managed to stop Taz from shredding one of his better silk shirts. Those
claws of his boyfriend’s were something else.
The phone stopped ringing. Reed
shrugged. Some things were more important than a phone conversation, right? Just
as he resumed his exploration of Taz, the same damn song rang out again.
“Fuck!” Reed squirmed as he dug his cell
out of his pants. “Just hold that thought, babe. This won’t take long.”
“I need,” Taz whimpered.
“God, Taz, I know. Five minutes, tops.
Promise. Let’s sit down. Maybe that’ll help.”
He decided this was going to be the
fastest conversation in recorded history. Reed answered the phone with high
hopes, but slumped into a chair as he heard his mother launch into the same old
same old. Did he say five minutes? What was he thinking?
“What’s wrong?” Taz flopped at his feet,
gazing up in consternation.
Reed sighed, trying to calm his
emotions. He’d never known a day could last so fucking long. Okay, part of that
was his fault. Around lunchtime, he’d gotten the bright idea of plugging Taz
with a remote controlled butt plug. Just a little bit of foreplay that would
get them both in the mood for a fun night. A quick trip to the bathroom and the
deed was done.
Little did he know what he’d just
unleashed.
To say Taz had been hyped up all day was
like saying it was mildly cold in the Arctic Circle. Reed’s normally exuberant
boyfriend had been flying high ever since, which meant he’d had his hands full
of excited alien.

M.A. Church is a true Southern belle who
spent many years in the elementary education sector. Now she spends her days
lost in fantasy worlds, arguing with hardheaded aliens on far-off planets,
herding her numerous shifters, or trying to tempt her country boys away from their
fishing poles. It’s a full time job, but hey, someone’s gotta do it!
When not writing, she’s exploring the
latest M/M novel to hit the market, watching her beloved Steelers, or sitting
glued to HGTV. That’s if she’s not on the back porch tending to the demanding
wildlife around the pond in the backyard. The ducks are very outspoken. She’s married to her high school sweetheart, and
they have two children.
She was a finalist in the Rainbow awards for 2013.
