We have a few more titles this week because we had two WIPs in different stages of completion that we have gone back to. I also just finished the galleys for Calendar Boys--August: Scorched and Vivien is working on the print galleys for Trinity Broken.

Summary: At twenty-two, Amanda Stevenson is tired of being treated like a child. Unfortunately, her parents are devoted to controlling her life, and they’re not above using blackmail to get their way. Their greatest weapon is the final two years of her college education, which they wield against her without remorse. Amanda’s choices are limited. But her former professor, and current friend, Jack Navis, has a suggestion—marry him and take advantage of the university’s tuition remission policy.
Jack is sure he can keep everything between them platonic. Especially since he’s a fetishist—he needs to watch people to get off and he doesn’t enjoy participating. He’s sure of that until he kisses her. And their world is thrown into chaos with new emotions, unexpected needs, and driving hunger.

Until he sustains a devastating injury—a concussion that brings his future as a bull rider into sharp question, and a torn shoulder that requires major surgery. He is forced to turn to the only friend he has in town, Rebecca Rankin.
Rebecca’s annual trysts with Spencer Cole are the high point of her Independence Day Celebration, but it never occurs to her to seek out from their relationship. And she is not prepared to be thrust into the role of nurse-maid for a bitter, angry cowboy. She is obliged to put her own blossoming career as a photographer on hold, but vows it will just be until Spencer can take care of himself—or hire a real nurse to take care of him
But Spencer doesn't just need a nurse. He needs somebody to show him his life didn't end when his career did.

WIP Report
With Mother's Day, Pepper gone for her Wilco concert, and various family obligations, this wasn't the most productive week for us. Hopefully, today will mark a swing back in the right direction for us.

Length: 35,000, though it'll probably end up being closer to 40,000
Words completed: 22,000 words
Date started: 5/4/08
Date Due: May 30, 2008
Summary: A widow lives in northern Utah in 1876 with her young son. Two strangers come to her cabin, looking for medical aid and a place to hole up during a very bad blizzard.

I also finished the edits on Fortune's Return last week, so that is off. And I did the edits for the July calendar boys story yesterday.
On the solo front, Pepper did her edits on her het song pax due out in July and submitted an m/m/m story to Samhain for its call for menages. Me? Well, I didn't get much writing done with the editing I was doing. But I did manage to write another 3k on a het vampire story I'd started eons ago. So it's better than nothing.

WIP Report
Today is our very first WIP report. A WIP is a Work-In-Progress, so these posts will be dedicated to what we're currently working on right this second, and maybe what we just finished.
We're very productive when we're in the same room, so it should come as no surprise that we wrote 9,000 words yesterday on our current untitled novella.

Title: Fortune's Return
Publisher: Liquid Silver Books
Length: 74,000 words
Status: Beginning edits this week
Release Date: Unknown
SummaryRyan Putnam has lost everything. Laid off from teaching high school and dumped by his lawyer boyfriend, he has nowhere else to go but his childhood home – the Good Fortune ranch. He plans to take the summer to regroup and start over. He never expects to be smitten with a cowboy. Especially not a cowboy like Teo Mendez, who is everything Ryan’s ex-boyfriend is not.
Four years after his wife's death, Teo Mendez has returned to what he loves the most – working the land. He believes the Good Fortune ranch is the perfect place to build a new life for his son, Antonio. When his boss's brother Ryan shows up to work, the other man’s haunted eyes reminds Teo of everything he has lost as well. So he offers the only thing he can—his friendship. But it doesn't take long for Ryan to reawaken long dormant emotions and desires.
Ryan doesn’t intend to find a relationship. Teo doesn’t want to complicate his life with a fling. What they have between them, however, is too powerful to ignore.
