Blood Moon Rising by Amelia Faulkner (Tooth & Claw #2)

A pack in turmoil. A ray of sunlight. A moon that demands blood... Randall Carter is in love. If only he could say it to Ellis’ face, but he’s been too busy - or too much of a coward - and now he may never get that chance. With the threat of a blood moon looming in the night sky his Alpha is on the warpath against both a new pack invading his territory and the vampire lover he ordered Randall to destroy. Ellis O’Neill’s problems are mounting fast. Randall’s Alpha wants to kill him, a vampire neighbour invites him to join some sort of coup, and his secrets are stacking up like firewood waiting for a single spark to set them ablaze. The last person he expects to betray his trust is the man he’s fallen in love with. Torn between love and obligation, Randall soon realises that he can’t satisfy both. He’ll have to choose, but the cost may well be more terrible than he can imagine. COVER ARTIST: Cover Design by Amelia Faulkner and Jen Fowler PUBLISHER: Ravensword Press YEAR: 2015 LENGTH: 268...

Clover Highhill Comes Home by Ennis Rook Bashe

Clover Highhill was just an ordinary person who lived in a cozy hole in the village and pined after their best friend. Now they're back from a great quest to destroy an evil mythical artifact, gravely injured in soul and body- and still pining. When a mysterious elf shows up with a dangerous, too-good-to-be-true offer that would separate Clover from their community, will they have the strength to resist?

*I received a free review copy in exchange for an honest review of this book. 

Queer Rep Summary: Lesbian/Sapphic Main Character(s), Genderqueer/Nonbinary Main Character(s).

CLOVER HIGHHILL COMES HOME is a beautiful short story about coming home after grim and harrowing adventures, and confessing love to one’s recent traveling companion.

There are brief descriptions of relevant portions of the quest, but the heart of this story is Clover adjusting to life at home after their hand was damaged during the quest, and Jillian working up the nerve to tell Clover how she feels about them (with her fiancĂ©e’s help). 

A brief read and very good, definitely check this one out.
