Resilience is available now!

Resilience, the charity anthology to benefit Puerto Rico from Less Than Three Press, is available now! I have a story in it, as does a good friend of mine, Isobelle Winter.

https://lessthanthreepress.com/books/index.php?main_page=product_bookx_info&cPath=78&products_id=1521

Here's the summary of my story:
Beginnings by Alexa Black—The Finishers are a collective of alien beings that end worlds when "called" to do so. But when they're not ending worlds, they're extremely bored. When the Finishers meet Vana, a strange, small being, they find themselves a bit less bored—and curious about what other beings do when they're not being destroyed. Intrigued, they examine the contents of Vana's mind... and decide they'd like to try humans' version of companionship.

Bonnie and the Beast is available now!

Bonnie and the Beast, my lesbian erotic retelling of Beauty and the Beast, is available now from Less Than Three Press:

https://lessthanthreepress.com/books/index.php?main_page=product_bookx_info&cPath=91&products_id=1375&zenid=p5ff4954ljuhk3u599q1oiff63


The Beast’s castle has been lonely since an angry sorceress cursed her years ago, and she resigned herself to it a long time ago. But now a woman has promised to brave the curse, and for the first time in too many years the Beast has someone to talk to—and perhaps even break the curse. 
But tricking people into visiting your castle isn’t how you find a soulmate. And looking stranger than a werewolf doesn’t help.
Check out a longer excerpt at the site!

My novel, Steel and Promise, is a Lambda award finalist in the LGBTQ Erotica category!

To celebrate, my publisher has put the ebook version on sale for $4.99!

You can order it and find an excerpt here: https://www.boldstrokesbooks.com/books/steel-and-promise-by-alexa-black-1840-b

Courtesan Cailyn Derys serves the passions of the noble classes—but she’s never served anyone like Teran Nivrai. Everyone whispers about the reclusive noblewoman, indulging her penchant for cruel passions on a private, hidden planet. She’s even modified her body with retractable steel claws. Drawn by curiosity, Cailyn can’t resist a meeting. Is Lady Nivrai the demon everyone whispers about, or have gossip and scandal made a monster of her?

Sex and pain draw Cailyn in, but the loneliness Cailyn sees in everyone’s favorite villain keeps her there. When the ruling Councils decide to use Teran’s gift for inflicting pain—and her claws—against their enemies, will Cailyn discover that the monster is real?

Canines


Canines, the queer vampire-themed anthology from Supposed Crimes, was released today. I have a gay male erotic story in it (written under the pen name A. M. Hawke.)

A vampire fanboy manages to summon one of the creatures of the night he's so obsessed with -- and discovers "his" vampire is not at all what he expected.

You can get it at the Supposed Crimes site here: https://supposedcrimes.com/…/canines-a-supposed-crimes-anthology
Or from Smashwords here: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/661792
The anthology is FREE for readers, so if you like stories about gay and lesbian vampires, you have no excuse not to download it. ;-)

The Cyborg He Brought Home is available for preorder!

Bold Strokes Books is pleased to announce the acquisition of Alexa Black’s new erotic fantasy, Steel and Promise, scheduled for release in 2016 from Bold Strokes Books.

Steel and Promise Coming in 2016

Courtesan Cailyn Derys serves the passions of the noble classes—but she’s never served anyone like Teran Nivrai. Everyone whispers about the reclusive noblewoman, indulging her penchant for cruel passions on a private, hidden planet. She’s even modified her body with retractable steel claws.

About the Author

Alexa Black lives in the Washington, DC, area where she works as a peer mentor and advocate for people with disabilities. She has a master’s degree in philosophy from Georgetown University, but has always returned to her passion for writing. Though a philosopher by training, she would rather inflict complicated questions on her characters and take readers along than lecture about them. When not writing, she can be found gaming, seeking out new restaurants to try, or drinking ridiculous, fancy coffee. Steel and Promise is her first novel.
