Her membership to the CAAH notwithstanding, Luna fiercely devotes herself to her amazing family and friends, drinks coffee like the life-giving ambrosia that it is, and reads gay romance novels voraciously. And just like any other card carrying Antisocial Action Hero, her favorite date night consists of dinner and a movie with her hubby.
Life for the superhero duo seemed perfect until the birth of twins threw their world into delightful and exhausting chaos. Leaving big business behind, The Adorables became her full-time job until Luna realized it was the perfect time to follow her dreams. So, she hung up her cape, donned her rainbow slippers and Wonder Woman pajamas, and dove into her fictional world.
When not saving her little monsters from themselves or overseeing the Dungeon, Luna slays fictitious evildoers between the pages of her manuscripts. Her books feature strong dominant males and the men they would die protecting. So, with love, her hero, and their monsters in her corner, Luna spends her free time writing sensual kink, and erotic gay romance, and loves every minute of it.

Wolves of Black Pine (The Wolfkin Saga Book 1) by SJ Himes
An ancient civilization long hidden from humanity is on the brink of chaos and war. Peaceful for thousands of years, the wolfkin clans are mysteriously losing packmates, kidnapped and killed by unknown foes.
The nightmare begins with an ambush by humans at a gathering of their kind, and lives are lost. Among them is Luca, youngest grandson of the two most powerful wolves in the Northern Clans. Thought long dead and gone, he is forced into a half-life, hidden in the far northern wilds of Canada and cut off from his kind. Those who raised him have no idea the creature they harbor in their midst, and name him Ghost. He begins to lose himself over the long years, and though he barely recalls his true name, the one wolf he never forgets is Kane.
Kane, Heir to the wolfkin clan Black Pine, is charged with hunting down the traitors who betrayed their kind to the humans. Years fly by, and more wolves are dying. He refuses to give up, and he vows to never again fail another of their kind, as he failed young Luca years before. His heart tells him Luca lives, but his mind tells him that it’s foolish hope, his guilt eating him alive.
Fate and magic change the course of their lives, and the two wolves long separated by the years find their paths intertwining. Though the gift of their reunion doesn’t come without price. Faced by the consequences of their growing love, and the goddess-forged bond between them, Kane and Ghost are besieged on all sides. Enemies are coming for their blood, and without the steadfast loyalty and love of family and friends, they may not be safe from the very people they fight to protect.
