Bloody Mary

John Luke Maxwell

1998. Summer is coming, school is almost out, and Deeks Bogart just wants to make it through one more year in his tiny Southern town. Being one of the only Black students is hard enough—being secretly gay is even harder. But when local teens start dying in brutal, supernatural ways, Deeks realizes he’s not the only one hiding dangerous secrets.

Whispers of Bloody Mary stalk the halls and mirrors of O’Khata Lake High. Victims share one thing in common: they were all living the same lie that Deeks is. Now, the ghost is haunting the closeted kids of O’Khata Lake, and Deeks may be next.

With his goth best friend, Sheena, his cousin Riri, and an unlikely ally he can’t help but fall for, Deeks must uncover the truth behind Bloody Mary before the killer in the mirror claims him too.

But surviving the curse will mean confronting the one thing that terrifies him most—himself.

Bloody Mary publishes on October 10th.

Defeating Demons and Breaking Up With My Boyfriend

Dylan James

Eli is headed out on a wilderness camping weekend with his boyfriend Brady and their best friends Keith and Stefan. For the guys, this weekend getaway is to celebrate graduating high school, but for Eli, it’s about creating wonderful final memories with Brady before he breaks up with him.

It’s not that he doesn’t love Brady, it’s that he doesn’t deserve Brady.

Brady is a young man that’s going somewhere—not just to the west coast for university—but in life. He has prospects ahead of him and the support of loving family behind him. Eli has none of those. Orphaned when he was just ten, he’s bounced from foster home to foster home and in a few weeks when he turns eighteen, he’s out on his own with no supports and no one behind him. He doesn’t want to drag down Brady with this, because it will eventually lead to the end of their relationship—so going out with good memories is the plan.

But for Eli, this plan is a weakness. Something evil has latched onto his unhappiness and his fears of rejection and isolation. When they set out on a hike to an abandoned church, it’s a trek Eli won’t return from as he is entrapped by a demon that draws on his deepest fears and brings them to life.
