Today I'm excited about hosting my friend M A Church. I have loved her writing since I first read The Harvest, which is soon to be released. Watch out for it. It will take your breath away.
But this post isn't about that book. It's about Be My Alien which she's co written with another friend and damn fine writer Julie Lynn Hayes. Without further ado let me introduce you to M A Church and her alien
Hey guys! Be My Alien is on the Coming Soon page and ready for pre-order.
It’s scheduled for release by Dreamspinner on May 8th. This is the first a
series of novel length books written by Julie Lynn Hayes and me. J
What’s an alien to do? Dumped at the
Empire State Building by the very male he’s been trying to get a date with
forever, Taz is stranded on a backwater planet called Earth with no money, no
idea where the motel they rented is located, and… he’s starving to boot! The
lovely moonlit skies he had admired no longer holds any appeal for him.
Where can he go, what can he do? The
answer comes in a form of a human named Reed… and a love that will travel
across the universe.
Blurb:
A man too busy for love…
Reed owns an upscale men’s boutique with
a naughty back room. While making a late delivery to a client, he runs into
Taz.
A man on a disastrous date…
When Taz agreed to come to Earth on a
date, he didn’t expect to be dumped and left with no way home. Then he falls
into Reed’s arms—literally.
A coffee date soon becomes a trip back
to Reed’s apartment. But when Taz’s stripes begin to show, Reed discovers Taz
comes from a planet far, far away.
Reed never believed aliens existed, but
he’s facing one now. What in the world is he going to do?
Excerpt:
“Are you okay? Hello?”
Reed dragged his mind away from those
sexy green eyes. “Ah, huh? What?”
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to fall on top
of you like that. You see, it was like this. I was pushed, and you just
happened to be there and….” The stranger grinned at Reed. “And down we went.”
Reed shifted under the body lying so
contentedly on top of him. Hell’s bells, the guy fit against him perfectly.
From the feel of things, they were both close to the same height. Which also
meant certain things were… aligned. “Oh yeah, I’m okay. Banged my head a
little, but I’m fine.”
The stranger bit his bottom lip, his
teeth worrying the tender skin. Reed debated slamming his head against the
floor a few more times in the hopes of rattling his brain back to normal as the
stranger rolled off him.
“I really am sorry.”
“No harm done.” Reed sat up and looked
at the guy once again. Well, not much harm, anyway. His libido just had to pick
now to perk up, didn’t it? But damn, this guy was sexy. Reed struggled to his
feet and held his hand out to the man still on the floor, looking up at him.
The guy took his hand and let Reed pull him up.
“Name’s Reed. Are you okay?”
“Hi, Reed!” The guy hopped to his feet
in a single, lithe movement, as if it was the most….world. “My name is Taz.
Nice to meet you, and yes, I am.”
For a moment there was a flash in the
guy’s eyes that belied his statement. “Good, that’s good. Glad to hear it.
Well, I guess I’d better be going—”
A forlorn expression crossed Taz’s face
and his pretty eyes clouded. “Oh.”
Reed hesitated. There was something
about the guy that pulled at him. When was the last time he’d felt that pull?
Way too long ago. Taz was cute, sure. But there was this look of hurt. Dammit,
Taz just looked so lost. Insane as it was, he wanted to make it all better.

bio:
M.A. Church lives in the southern United
States and spent many years in the elementary education sector. She is married
to her high school sweetheart and they have two children. Her hobbies are
gardening, walking, attending flea markets, watching professional football,
racing, and spending time with her family on the lake.
But her most beloved hobby is reading.
From an early age, she can remember hunting for books at the library. Later
nonhuman and science fiction genres captured her attention and drew her into
the worlds the authors had created. But always at the back of her mind was the
thought that one day, when the kids were older and she had more time, she would
write a book.
By sheer chance she stumbled across a
gay male romance story on the web and was hooked. A new world opened up and she
fell in love. Thus the journey started. When not writing or researching, she
enjoys reading the latest erotic and mainstream romance novels.

Bio:
Julie Lynn Hayes was reading at the age
of two and writing by the age of nine and always wanted to be a writer when she
grew up. Two marriages, five children, and more than forty years later, that is
still her dream.
She blames her younger daughters for introducing her to yaoi
and the world of M/M love, a world which has captured her imagination and her
heart and fueled her writing in ways she'd never dreamed of before. She
especially loves stories of two men finding true love and happiness in one
another's arms and is a great believer in the happily ever after.
She lives in
St. Louis with her daughter Sarah and two cats, loves books and movies, and
hopes to be a world traveler some day. She enjoys crafts, such as crocheting
and cross stitch, knitting and needlepoint and loves to cook.
While working a
temporary day job, she continues to write her books and stories and reviews,
which she posts in various places on the internet. Her family thinks she is a
bit off, but she doesn't mind. Marching to the beat of one's own drummer is a
good thing, after all. Her other
published works can be found at Dreamspinner Press, MuseitUp Publishing and No
Boundaries Press, and coming soon with both Extasy Books and Torquere Press.
She has also begun to self-publish and is an editor at MuseitUp.
