But when his Admiral asks him to use his peerage, as an earl and the heir to a dukedom, to investigate a missing weapons stash, he’s forced to do just that. As if being undercover on a Regency planet where the young men are supposed to remain pure until marriage isn’t bad enough, Nate finds himself attracted to the king’s unmarried son.

Sometimes love just catches you by the tail...


Chayton Winston is a veterinarian. He is also a werewolf. Much to his Native American parent’s chagrin, he has always dreamed of a fair-haired, Caucasian mate. However, he never imagined his mate would be male. As a heterosexual man, he’s not quite sure what to do with a male mate, but more than willing to find out.


Keaton Reynolds wakes up, in wolf form, and finds himself with a mate. He’s instantly attracted, but not so thrilled to find out the man is straight. Having been in a relationship once before where his partner professed to be “Not gay” left a bad taste in his mouth. Keaton wants to make a break for it and pretend he never set eyes on Chay -- but Chay is not ready to let him go.


Together the two work to solidify their shaky relationship and battle the prejudices against homosexuals. Chay must deal with not only his mother’s prejudices against gay men but also her hatred of white people. When a power struggle in Keaton’s pack threatens Keaton’s life, the two men learn to depend on one another and their relationship to get them through it.

DIP Disorder

I’ve discovered a new disorder. As far as I can tell it only affects authors. DIP: Deadline Induced Panic. What are the symptoms? The first and the most telling is shouting at a manuscript, “You suck! I hate you!” Sometimes this is accompanied by tears, other times by throwing things, cursing and stomping around.

The second symptom is writing critique partners and telling them, “This sucks, I hate it.” This is a sad attempt to get others to tell the DIP sufferer, “No, it doesn’t suck.” Which is pointless, because an author suffering from DIP will not allow themselves to be swayed by compliments.

In most cases, after the initial stages of DIP an author will fall into depression, mood swings, chocolate overindulgence and tearing at one’s hair.

Some believe the severity of the condition is directly related to the brilliance of the manuscript involved. Others believe that the people who say it’s related to how good the manuscript is are nuts.

There is no cure for DIP but with a good support group, patience and a lot of caffeine an author can learn to live with it until the manuscript that initiated DIP disorder is sent off to an editor.

Evil Plot Bunnies




My critique group has had a majory attack of plot bunnies lately. It's become quite the joke, so much so that one of my latest characters has been attacked. Not only has my critique group decided to do fan fic with him, the plot bunnies have made them plot naughty pictures of him :). Not that I'm complaining mind you, I'm anxiously awaiting the pictures. Anyway, I found this picture and I had to share, it was just too good.

Samhain

Laine opened the men’s room door, bumping a man on his way out. “Excuse me.”
The man kept walking.
Laine shrugged and went to the urinal. He did his business and zipped back up. He turned to go to the sink and ran smack dab into someone.
“Hello, Laine.”
Fuck, fuck, fuck. Shit and damn. Laine peered up into Victor’s eyes and glared. “Get out of my way, asshole.”
Victor cupped Laine’s chin and made a tsking sound. “Now, Lainey, is that any way to speak to your Alpha?”
Laine slapped at his hand and stepped back. “Don’t touch me. You had your lackeys destroy my shop today. Wait till I tell Dev you’re here.” Laine was seething. No way was he going to stop Dev from busting this asshole up this time. The fucker had some nerve. Laine tried to step around Victor, but his arm was grabbed and he was jerked around and pulled up against Victor’s chest. “Let go!”
Victor chuckled. “No, I don’t think I will.”
Laine struggled, flailing and jerking, to no avail. Victor was a lot bigger and stronger than him. Damn.
The larger man backed him up against the wall, chuckling, giving Laine even less room to maneuver. “I do like the way you struggle, Laine. You may be a wimp, but you’re no coward.”
“Fuck you.”
“I tell you what, Laine. You let me fuck you and I’ll take it easy on your loved ones. Speaking of which, where is your boyfriend?” Victor’s mouth crashed down on his.
Laine wrenched his head to the side and used all his strength to escape the Alpha’s arms.
Victor just laughed at him, holding on tight. “You know, if you’d have just kept your mouth shut—”
“Fuck you. If you weren’t such an ass to everyone, I would have kept my mouth shut.”
Again, Victor tried to kiss him.
The door creaked open and a gasp sounded as Laine managed to bite Victor’s lip, drawing blood.
Victor howled and let go with one hand, raising it up, making a fist. “You little shit.”
“I don’t think so, asshole,” a deep voice growled.
Victor was yanked away as his fist descended, missing Laine by several inches.
Laine blinked, watching Cole pummel the man’s face. He sighed in relief. He hated to admit it, but he’d been getting a little concerned.
Finally, after several blows, Victor bolted towards the door. When he got there he turned to glare at Laine and pointed his finger. “You will regret this, Laine.” He took off out the bathroom door.
Laine sagged against the wall, taking a deep breath.
“You okay, Lainey?” Cole came over to him.
He nodded. “Thanks, Cole.”
Cole frowned. “The Alpha?”
Again Laine nodded. “Yeah, he—”
The bathroom door flew open and hit the wall with a loud bang. “Lainey!” Dev came running in, looking around. His gaze fell on Cole, then Laine. He rushed forward, pulling Laine into his arms, practically crushing him. “I saw Victor running out, I thought… Are you okay?”
“Yeah, thanks to Cole.” He hugged Dev then leaned back. “I’m all right, really.”
Dev glanced at Cole without loosening his grip on Laine. “You okay, buddy?”
“Yeah. I’m good. We have to stop this guy, Dev.”
Dev nodded. “Yeah…yeah we do.”

About me

  • My name is J.L. Langley and I write M/M erotic romance, among other things. I'm fortunate to live with four of the most gorgeous males to walk the earth...ok, so one of those males is canine, but he is quite beautiful for a German Shepherd. I was born and raised in Texas. Which is a good thing considering that Texas is full of cowboys and there is nothing better than a man in a pair of tight Wranglers and a cowboy hat as far as I'm concerned.
