Suzanne Clay– Suzanne’s work is new to me, but I read By Pain of Death, which is a Hades and Persephone retelling where Persephone is trans (Seph) and Hades is disabled/dealing with chronic pain.If you love historical romance with a heavy dose of queerness, hit up her work, especially Tommy Cabot Was Here. Cat Sebastian– Cat’s books are notoriously tender, and what I love most about her work is that even the MF romance is queer.Magen Cubed– Magen’s Leather and Lace is the buddy cop/monster hunters in love kind of story that has a ton of action that is balanced with tenderness and silliness.Bross– Bross’s The Roots that Clutch is a fantasy story set in a desert world with lots of queer characters, found family, magic, and interesting world-building. I highly recommend all of his series, but I particularly enjoyed Widdershins as well as his latest book The Forgotten Dead. Hawk– Jordan’s books are a lot like mine (gay, monsters, mysteries), so if you like my work, you will love Jordan’s. Today, I’ll be posting the first 12, and I will do another 12 next week as well since there are way too many amazing queer books/authors for one post.

And he's beginning to think that an empty teaching post without the charming Dr.

But as the two travel across Scotland's lovely-and definitely haunted-landscape, Joachim's resolve starts to melt. Joachim is one thesis away from realizing his dream of becoming a psychology professor, and he's not going to let anyone stop him, not even an enchanting ginger with a penchant for tartan and lewd jokes. He knows he's not crazy-he just needs someone else to know it, too. If he can convince Joachim, Ainsley might be able to win back his good name and then some. He agrees to motor his handsome new friend around to Scotland's most unmistakable hauntings. But Joachim is tenacious and openhearted, and Ainsley's intrigued despite himself. When Joachim Cockburn, a WWI veteran studying the power of delusional thinking, arrives at his door, Ainsley quickly catalogues him as yet another tiresome Englishman determined to mock his life's work. Two years ago, he catastrophically ended his academic career by publicly claiming to talk to ghosts. Ainsley Graham is cultivating a reputation as an eccentric.
