Teddy is unhappily single in L.A. In between sessions with his therapist and dates with men he meets online, Teddy has debates with his dachshund, Lily, who occupies his heart.

The Octopus of Pilgrim Valley is a western adventure short story by Ernest Haycox. Haycox was an American writer of Western fiction. Excerpt: "The valley, ringed on three sides by the Buttes and merging into a pine forest far to the south, was a self-contained, almost inaccessible land. No such thing as a fence was needed and since it was a great deal higher than the country outside and below the Buttes it drew more moisture and was visited with a cooler air. The buffalo grass, just turning yellow, covered the valley in a solid mat as far as his eyes could reach. It was an astonishing contrast to the dead area stretching west and north. No wonder Jim Breck, the octopus, wanted to keep out interlopers."

Amnesia, love triangles, and political intrigue, oh my! Rosalite may be stuck in her younger brother’s tragic BL story, but all she has is work on her mind. In Volume II of the blockbuster hit Touch My Brother and You Die, the story takes a dive into political intrigue with the amnesiac magic instructor Sage Oswald acting as the head of a large-scale band of thieves in the Barony of Veloce. The problem? He’s completely forgotten about the Magic Tower and seems more interested in sticking close to Rosalite than returning to his former duties. Meanwhile, Rosalite and Glen’s contractual relationship is all work and no play—especially for Glen as he takes on piles of work dumped on him by his lively paramour as the next Lord of Veloce. Rosalite seems oblivious to his stress, instead taking up the mantle of a diplomat in the distant country of Largole in the Alain Kingdom. Surely her crush on Largole’s third imperial prince has nothing to do with her decision to leave… or does it?
