Sing Me Your Love Song

By Raine O'Tierney

Who wouldn’t be thrilled at the opportunity to see the red thread of fate that binds them to their destined lover? No more awkward dates, no more broken hearts, no more of the messy unknown that comes with finding “the one.” Just you and your perfect match, right? For Kennick, a Traveler whose red thread is getting mighty insistent, it’s more of a curse than a blessing. But he’s got a surefire plan for severing that nuisance once and for all. If only he’d prepared himself for what the thread leads him to: a drunk man in a wedding dress hugging a toilet. Fate is a funny thing.

Raine O'Tierney

Raine O’Tierney loves writing about first loves and friendship. She believes the best thing we can do in this life is be kind to one another, and hopes her stories always reflect that. Raine loves encouraging people to write and has been known to repeat the phrase “I believe everyone has a story to tell” endlessly, until she breaks down even the most stubborn nonwriter! Raine lives outside of Kansas City, Missouri, with her husband, fellow M/M author Siôn O’Tierney. When she’s not writing, she’s either playing video games or fighting the good fight for intellectual freedom at her library day job. Contact her if you’re interested in talking about point-and-click adventure games or about which dachshunds are the best kinds of dachshunds!

Dear Author,

These men are on their wedding night. They are wearing traditional attire according to their social/military/royal/world status. I want to know their story, and why is one of them hiding in a wash chamber. Is that a tattoo on his chest or did his husband brand him during the wedding ceremony? Why is the other so serious? Maybe he doesn’t like all the jewelry?

I wonder about their world, time, professions, etc. Did they marry for love, or convenience? Maybe it was arranged, or were they drunk?

I want their love to grow, as well as their need for each other. I just want them to be happy, but you can tell their first time together will be passionate. You can see it in their eyes.

I’m giving them to you, dear author. Anything and everything will be good for them. If any non-con is involved, I’ll prefer it happens off page. You can use any genre you prefer. And don’t be shy, these boys can take anything from BDSM to mpreg—your imagination is the limit.

Thanks for loving them,

LLH

We Leave at Dawn…

The irritation was constant now, like a niggling pain in Kennick’s nerve endings that never quite subsided.

At first it had only been mildly annoying. He’d catch sight of it out of the corner of his eye, drifting gently in the breeze—a flash of red that distracted him. Then it began to itch at his wrist, all the time, itching, and no amount of digging his fingers in would satisfy that itch. Quickly, the itch became tightening, pulling, tugging, and now yanking. He was being yanked, constantly, so that he physically had to fight to keep his arm steady at his side.

Oh, she’d cursed him well this time.

Reviews for Sing Me Your Love Song

[Isabel Coria · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Yeah this book needs a proper finish. Going pretty good then it just stopped

[Tercia Iyer · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Would rate it higher if the story was longer with a more definitive ending. As it is it just seems unfinished
