queerly_belovedOkay, let's see if I can manage this two weeks in a row: Posting Thursday Recs at a not-completely-unreasonable hour!

thebibliosphere, AKA Joy Demorra.
First of a planned five book series, with an endgame M/M/F triad (all of them bi). Style-wise, Joy's writing style has been compared to fanfic, and also as a cross between Terry Pratchett and Jane Austen.
This book comes in two versions: The "Flirting" edition has explicit sex scenes, both solo and partnered, while the "Fluff" edition has replaced those with scenes of emotional intimacy and fades-to-black, for anyone who doesn't like reading explicit sex. Both versions are also available as audiobooks, and the plan is for all future books to get the same "two versions" treatment.
For more information, as well as links for where you can buy your own copy (related note: Payhip gives the most money to the author), check out the link above!
Do you have a rec for this week? Just reply to this post with something queer or queer-adjacent (such as, soap made by a queer person that isn't necessarily queer themed) that you'd, well, recommend. Self-recs are welcome, as are recs for fandom-related content!
This week, I'm reccing Hunger Pangs: True Love Bites by
In a world of dwindling hope, love has never mattered more…
Captain Nathan J. Northland had no idea what to expect when he returned home to Lorehaven injured from war, but it certainly wasn’t to find himself posted on an island full of vampires. An island whose local vampire dandy lord causes Nathan to feel strange things he’d never felt before.
Particularly about fangs.
When Vlad Blutstein agreed to hire Nathan as Captain of the Eyrie Guard, he hadn’t been sure what to expect either, but it certainly hadn’t been to fall in love with a disabled werewolf. However Vlad has fallen and fallen hard, and that’s the problem.
Torn by their allegiances—to family, to duty, and the age-old enmity between vampires and werewolves—the pair find themselves in a difficult situation: to love where the heart wants or to follow where expectation demands.
The situation is complicated further when a mysterious and beguiling figure known only as Lady Ursula crashes into their lives, bringing with her dark omens of death, doom, and destruction in her wake.
One thing is for certain, nothing will ever be the same.
