Well, Orlando is back and his book is now live, but Amazon was a bit of a pain in the butt and the preorder for this did not go smoothly. But that’s okay because Santa’s Little Faker is now live and that’s what’s important.
You met Orlando in Who’s Your Daddy…and he was not Terrence’s Daddy, but he was watching everything that naughty little was doing so he could learn from the best.
What was he trying to learn?
How to manipulate the sexy Daddy next door who would make the perfect Daddy…once Bastian gets his head out of the sand and realizes his feelings for Orlando.
Hmm…so shenanigans are obvious here, but knowing Orlando’s family should we have expected anything else?
Santa’s Little Faker has an age gap relationship with two nuts who’ve known each other for years, age play, some fun fantasy dirty talk, and a family that doesn’t understand healthy boundaries. That’s okay, though. It’s a Daddy’s job to save his boy from scary things like an overbearing mother.
Check out the first chapter if want a peek at what these two are up to.
Orlando’s finding the holidays to be much more interesting after working on the fascinating and highly educational Terrence’s house. He learned all about fun new books, what it means to be little, and what to look for in a Daddy…and he knows just were to apply all that knowledge…his neighbor and closeted Daddy…Bastian. Now he just needs to figure out how to get the stubborn man’s attention.
Bastian’s finding the holidays to be much more stressful this year when he discovers his frustrating neighbor has somehow ended up with a Secret Santa Daddy and is doing his best to throw himself into discovering his little side. Now he needs to figure out how to chase off the scam artist and protect Orlando from himself…because that’s what a good neighbor would do, right?
What’s a cutie to do when the man of his dreams keeps putting his head in the sand? Invent a Secret Santa, of course.
In 2024, I ran a series called ‘Past Pages’ in my reader group. Each month, I’d spotlight past books published during that month – sharing writing secrets, character insights, and the stories behind them. I even opened the floor for questions and comments. This year, I’m bringing ‘Past Pages’ to my blog! Feel free to join the conversation, whether you participated last year, or not. I’m excited to revisit these books with you!

19 total books have been published in November since 2016! Below is the full list by year, click on each title to check out it’s full blurb, keywords, tags, preview the first chapter, and links to purchase. In 2024, I added 3 books to this list!
Let’s take a closer look at 3 of the titles released in the past.
Family By Fate
First of all, this was a really hard month to pick which ones I wanted to talk about because I’ve released stories from a lot of my favorite series and about my favorite characters. So I’ve picked a few of my top cuties to talk about, but the list was daunting.
For those of you who haven’t read this one yet, this is the prequel to The Accidental Master and it shows a peek at an early Christmas for the two subs who are already a couple when the trilogy starts.
These two were already a package deal when I first started thinking about The Accidental Master. They mentioned a few things about their past but their focus was looking forward. Mostly because of Cooper, honestly. But they were in a good place when Jackson came along.
But you guys kept asking about their past and wanted to see more. It just took a little while to figure out what part of their past to show. I don’t like writing sad. It just doesn’t come as easily most of the time as happy stuff does.
Their first Christmas on their own with Cooper’s friendship with the local working girls and Sawyer’s constant grumpy worries as he’s picking out the best present for Cooper were fun to write even though there’s still a lot of stress.
So I think it was a good mix of real stress for them and happiness for me worked out pretty good.
Answer in the comments: But what do you think? Have you read this one? Have you read The Accidental Master series? Do you have any questions for me about Family by Fate?

The Owners
I really can’t believe how long ago this came out. 2017? How is that possible? And looking at the list of books that have come out in November in past years, this is clearly the time of year that I end up writing bonus stuff.
This was the original bonus short for the owners of the Bound & Controlled club. It gives a peek into their relationship and let me get to know them better. Which eventually lead to their other story. (Becoming The Owners from earlier this year)
But I think my favorite parts of getting to know them have been seeing Conner pop up in random places jumping head first into shenanigans.
Answer in the comments: What’s your favorite place Ben and/or Conner have shown up? Do you have any questions for me about The Owners?
—————
His Human
My favorite part about these books is that they meet and just know there’s something special. Even though Trip meets his alien cutie at the grocery store, he knows there’s something special and he throws himself into their relationship.
This book was probably the hardest to write in the series not because the characters were arguing but because the first one wasn’t planned at all. So with this one there were constantly questions I had to answer.
But I think they have my favorite meet cute in the whole series even though I love how playful all my aliens are.
Have you read these guys?
If you haven’t read this series, it’s about aliens that came to live on Earth and they’re a whole civilization of mostly Doms who love that Earth has so many different kinds of subs. They’re playful Doms who are always pleasantly confused by what humans are getting up to.
Answer in the comments: Do you have any questions for me about His Human?

Too Close To Change
Okay if you haven’t read this one it’s part of the Loving series or what I most of the time call my Too Close books. They’re taboo (!ncest) and on my site and Smashwords. So if the cover doesn’t look familiar that’s why. (There are going to be spoilers in this so if you’ve just started reading the series skip this post)
Some of my characters like Kevin from this series jump into things head first and some need more time to overthink the situation. So when there are a mix of characters involved I don’t always know how they’re going to react and sometimes I’m the one who’s overthinking things.
That means when this series started to shift from having two couples who were simply best friends to something more going on between them we’d all take turns overthinking and alternating that between surprising Shaw.
This one was one of the surprises. Maddox is not usually the one who throws me for a loop but when he does it’s always interesting lol.
Answer in the comments: Have you guys read this series? Feel free to comment about what you’d like to see in general with these guys too. Do you have any questions for me about Too Close To Change?
I’m ridiculously excited about this one because Malik is a Bigfoot Daddy and Alton is so cute when he’s little.
Here’s a little peek at the start of their relationship.
“Well, the fates figured it out for you anyway.” No kissing until we’ve talked about it. No kissing until we’ve talked about it. “What kind of Daddy did you ask for?”
I wasn’t sure if that would throw off his headspace but he giggled and hid tighter against me. “One who liked cuddles and playtime and wanted Little me.”
Making a surprised sound, I acted shocked, getting another silly sound from him. “That’s me.”
Alton nodded, snuggling against me as he clung to me and Bouncy. “I found you. You were hard to find.”
“It’s the magic.” I was partly being silly and partly being honest, but got a dramatic sigh of agreement from Alton. “It’s naughty sometimes, but we did it.”
“I’m not naughty.” Little Alton seemed to want to make that very clear. “You’re not naughty either… and you’re snuggly and carry me big and you’re pretty.”
My aura.
I could get used to being pretty.
So we’ve got an adorable little and a Bigfoot Daddy with a pretty aura. We’ve also got lots of playtime and a Daddy big enough to carry his little. So we’ve got a teddy bear of a Daddy (He would not be offended at the comparison lol)…a chatty cutie who loves the playground and his pretty Daddy…and some fun new paranormal ancestry.
Have fun with The Professor and his Little Roo and all the other fun stories in the anthology.
I really should’ve clarified what the matchmaker had meant when she’d asked if I liked bears.
Alton
Dating is difficult…especially when he doesn’t know what he’s looking for and he ends up putting his fate in the hands of a magical matchmaker with a bit of a reputation. But when she sets a Daddy with a captivatingly beautiful aura right in his path, he starts to think maybe he shouldn’t have been questioning her methods or her magic.
Malik
Dating is difficult…especially when he lives in a small town and is usually considered a mythical creature. Being a Bigfoot and a Daddy hasn’t helped expand his dating pool either, but he’s really starting to wonder if a matchmaker was the best decision he could’ve made or absolutely insane.
When a cutie with a serious case of wanderlust meets an introverted Daddy with a cabin in the woods, it’s going to take toys, playgrounds, and a bit of magic to bring them together.

Monster Daddies
One, two, Daddy’s coming for you…
You’ve met Daddies living on sprawling ranches out west. Mafia Daddies in huge, sparkling mansions.
Now, meet the Daddies living underneath your bed.While these Daddies might look monstrous to some, they have one common goal: Find and claim their little ones, by whatever means necessary.

October – 15 total books have been published in October since 2016! Below is the full list by year, click on each title to check out it’s full blurb, keywords, tags, preview the first chapter, and links to purchase. In 2024, I added 1 books to this list!
Let’s take a closer look at 3 of the titles released in the past.
Wade
Oh my sweet heart Wade.
I hate crying when I write which is why I stick with really happy goofballs a lot of the time but I couldn’t avoid it in his story.
Wade is in my omegaverse (the Romance & Revolutions series) and his is the last book in that series. So every time he popped up with something sad I kept telling myself I didn’t have to worry about it yet. It would be a long time before I got to the last book.
Then I got to the last book.
If you haven’t read his book, he’s a sweetheart who lost his husband too early and he just stopped living for a long time.
His friends are a great support system, though, and they’re always there for him. But it’s still an emotional journey for him.
Ugh, writing sad is soooo hard and I was really glad when that book was over. (I’m terrible) But to me he’s a really good character and he’s so sweet as he falls in love again.
If you haven’t finished this series then I’m going to challenge you to go have a good cry with my cutie as he falls in love again.
Answer in the comments: If you have already read the full series, which book was your favorite?
Do you have any questions for me about Wade??

Magic & Mayhem
My dragons lol.
I love all these guys but this one was so much fun. I love how adorably innocent and manipulative Kenzie is and I loved how grumbly Talon is. And all his “F-ing aliens” comments and thoughts just crack me up.
When I was in the “what if I wrote this” stage, Sage was asking me what I wanted to write and I told her I wanted to write about dragons. She didn’t tell me I was crazy but she was amazing at charging right in and giving me a list of a thousand questions to answer about the world before I could start writing the book.
She made the most amazing google doc with pages and pages of questions that I had to think about to make sure I knew what I was doing when I started writing the book.
Talon just jumped out on the page, though. He immediately charged right in and started grumbling about how he was stupid and there were too many aliens.
The first chapter of Magic and Mayhem is one of my favorites from everything that I’ve written and Kenzie is one of my favorite littles.
Answer in the comments: But who’s your favorite dragon or human in the series? Do you have a part in any of those books that you reread because they’re your favorite? Do you have any questions for me about Magic and Mayhem?
—————
Austin
Writing his book was so much but he’s so outrageous and we kept having to talk about some of his questionable past decisions.
He kept trying to tell you guys all about everything he was proud of but a surprising amount (surprising to me lol) was illegal or questionable. So we settled on being vague.
Some people just have more money and passion than common sense.
But it was fun having a character that always wanted to go a bit too far and who’s just so different from me lol.
My favorite part of him as a character is that he will do anything for the people he loves and thinks of as “his”. And I love when he sees something that he wants he just goes after it.
Answer in the comments: What’s your favorite scene that Austin has been in or thing that he’s done? Have you read about my omegas yet? Do you have any questions for me about Austin??
I know I’ve mentioned this before but sometimes I just don’t have a good place to put strange ideas…and unfortunately…my brain needs somewhere to stick them. Stuff doesn’t go away until I write it down. Ignoring isn’t helpful because it’s kind of like having a chatty ghost following me around all the time constantly wanting to tell me one part of their life’s story.
Chatty, slightly strange cutie wants to adopt a little…okay let’s tell Patreon about it and see what world he fits in.
Dragons texting each other about weird stuff…okay let’s tell Patreon about it so I can make Kenzie go away for a while.
Our fun human helper from the last New Neighbors book wants to tell everyone about his job…okay, let’s tell Patreon about it and do a series of shorts so he can tell everyone about his favorite parts of his job.
He’s very chatty too.
Like dragon nonsense or Kevin level chatty.
So far, to make him happy I’ve got shorts for him going up on Patreon about every two or three weeks through the end of the year because he’s ridiculously talkative and likes to tell everyone about odd parts of his job.
His first interview for the job… (that almost went very badly lol)
How his job started… (That was funny)
His favorite interactions with his charges and the fun humans they bring home… (those are so much fun to write)
I’m still figuring out the best way to organize these into some kind of ebook, but until I figure that out and they get edited, they’re going up on Patreon for any paid tier. I think I need to have a few more done before they’re worth putting in an ebook form, but that might be me overthinking things.
However, if you’re curious about our human helper and the aliens, or you want to see the other random things I’m working on (and wanted readers thoughts on) then come check out Patreon, they will all be collected into a folder here for easy reading.
I’m so excited for you guys to get to see how cute these two are and what everyone’s been up to. Kenzie’s trying to get his way. Lorne got up to some mischief. The diner men are getting in trouble. Boyd might just strangle all of them.
And Wren is just enjoying the chaos and getting to know his mate and Daddy.
His alien Daddy.
He’s enjoying that part too.
When you’re done reading their story I’d love to hear who else you think needs a story and what you think should happen next.
I’ll be good and won’t tell you my thoughts just yet but we’ll have to see how long my patience lasts.
Have I mentioned that I’m excited this is live?
Have fun with my cuties. If you need just a little more incentive, a href=”https://authorshawmontgomery.com/chapter/culture-and-curiosities-chapter-1/”>click here to read the first full chapter.
Wren
Mates. Wren knows they just pop up when it’s completely unexpected, like at a party with clowns, crazy townspeople, and the cutest alien he’s ever met. Alien dragon? Mage? His mate is clearly not a local but that’s just going to make the adventure of a lifetime even more interesting. Besides, the only thing that matters is he’s a Daddy…right?
Toman
Mates. Toman knows mates are granted by the fates, but the last place he expected to find his was on another world where nothing quite makes sense. Team Binkie? Team Pony? His goals were planned out, but everything changes when his adorably confusing mate bounces into his life. Now he’s got a new list of things to learn, like what makes a Daddy and how do Earthlings fall in love.
When the mate bond strikes, two men must learn how to build a love that crosses cultures and bridges the stars.
Author’s Note: This is the first book in a new spinoff series. This takes place after the events in Blue Ridge Magic and is best read after the original series. You’re not going to understand why the old men are so funny if you don’t see the original chaos and you have to meet Deputy Talon the way he was meant to be seen, cussing about f-ing aliens and wondering what kind of crazy job he signed up for.
