As you saw from my previous post about starting Tropes and Tenderness, I mentioned I had a few different alt-POV bonuses that I wrote as I was getting to know these guys.

Have I mentioned that they’re both pains in the asses?

Ready for a bonus?

When I first started working on Klynn and our grumpy human agent’s book, I had no idea where to start. They both just kept shrugging at me, which isn’t surprising considering how little they like sharing with anyone else. So I poked at them by doing some alternate point of view scenes to get them to start talking.

There is a bonus library of shorts for newsletter subscribers (some that have originally popped up in random places), and I add to it on a semi-regular basis (when Sage reminds me too lol).

I’ve recently added a shorts collection, Blue Ridge Magic: Bonus Shorts Collection, that has four shorts that take place in the Blue Ridge Magic world! Some of the stories started out free on Patreon and one is a completely new one (Lorne’s Arrest).

Inspiration for books comes in a variety of ways like songs and random things people around me say. But most of the inspiration for bonus shorts and text conversations like this usually come from different places. And the inspiration for the different groups of friends come from different places too.

I’ve got something fun for you…but I can’t tell you much about it.

Ugh. Author problems.

So…how do I explain a short freebie for the Too Close cuties without spoiling anything?

Um.

If you read book 10 (Too Close to Resist) and you wanted to see what happened next, this is what you’ve been waiting for.

One of my favorite new scenes in Hiding From Laughter is when Ashton is being very vague about the answers he filled out on the application to the Bound and Controlled club, so I decided to poke Conner and see what Ashton did.

Take a peek and I hope you have fun with Hiding From Laughter. It’s up on preorder now and will go live on Early Access on April 20th and on Amazon on the 25th.
