Here's a quick post to remind you guys of our series - On a Night Like this.

If you're looking for some KU Easter reading, or you need to catch up on the series before the last two books release, then hop to it! 

(Yeah - okay - that was a little Easter pun.  Easter PUN... not bun.... mmm... Hot cross buns... what was I saying again?)

Anyway - this series has a little of everything in it.  It follows seven couples through their journey to be at a single night in Perth - the Pride parade.

Wow! - join drag queen Allotta as she reveals herself to Mark's new boyfriend, Joel
Confide in Me - what do you do when the guy you love just wants to be friends?
Come Into My World - firmly closeted Steve needs to choose between which life he wants to have
In Your Eyes - super hot Jordy Reynolds couldn't have been flirtying with Carrick all this time, could he?
Never Too Late - is it too late for love for Ari and Lee?
Wouldn't Change a Thing - Travis has a thing for bears... and his new employee is perfect for him!
​#7 - it's a secret!

Good luck and happy Easter!

So this is the fourth story in the series - remember you don't need to read them in order, so if you start with this one, that's okay.

In Your Eyes
By Renae Kaye
On a Night Like This, Book 4

On a night like this, magic can happen. Seven couples. Seven stories. One night. A night for love. 

Physiotherapist Carrick Cartwright has a big crush on rehabilitation nurse, Jordy Reynolds. Only Carrick isn’t out at work, and even if he was, Carrick tends to blend into the wallpaper.

But suddenly Jordy is working closely with Carrick and appears to be flirting. When Jordy admits he’s known for a while that Carrick is gay, Carrick gathers his courage, and with the help of the most impossible patient he has and a bit of bad Italian, Carrick scores a date.
​
But Jordy wants more than just a man who hides in the shadows. He wants a man who will stand up and dance proudly with him on Pride night.

Available for a short time at 99c on Amazon.  Available to read on Kindle Unlimited.

Come Into My World
By Sean Kennedy
On a Night Like This, Book 3
Released 13 February 2018

On a night like this, magic can happen. Seven couples. Seven stories. One night. A night for love.

Steve Colvin, ex-reality TV star, is trapped in a world of his own making. Refusing to let himself be outed on television, he has lived a lie ever since. It doesn't help that his brother is also gay, out and proud with a drag queen boyfriend to boot. Logically, this would make coming out easier, but it doesn't.
​
His self-defence mechanisms are wearing down, and Steve is in danger of losing everybody close to him as he shuts them out. But Dev, the kind-hearted nurse, keeps sticking around. And he’s the one Steve is most scared of losing, although he doesn't want to admit to himself why….

This story is just a taste of what is to come.  More aussie adventures are on the way.

The 9th of January is the day same-sex marriages in Australia will start happening all over!  Following the December 2017 law change, same-sex marriage is now legal in my country.  Couples wishing to tie the knot had to give one month's notice.  So far around the country, several marriages have been performed under special circumstances (such as the couple involved having a terminal diagnosis and not expected to survive until the 9th of January) but otherwise, there will be a rush of rainbow marriages starting next week.

As a celebration, I will be letting you all know some super exciting news about my new series on this day....  So please check back!

Until then, I hope you all enjoy Moe and Sam's adventures - and Stuart.  Who is Stuart, you ask?  Let's keep it a big surprise.  Read to find out.

You may notice that my Nano blog went from Day 2 to Day 5... that's because I didn't do much Nano-ing on Day 3 and Day 4.

Day 3 was a long awaited coffee date with a couple of the M/M Perth crowd.  No way am I missing that!  A chance to have cake and coffee without the calories - everyone knows that coffee and cake shared with friends is calorie free!  And to top it all off it was a beautiful spring day and we had some of the best views in Perth.

Day 4 wasn't a good day for writing.  My husband invited his parents over for an hour... and they ended up staying just shy of 5 hours.  My writing hours.

Today I was stressed and behind in the word count, so I sat down to get it done.  In the two hours following that sitting down in front of my computer, I planted out three plants, weeded the front garden bed, repotted several plants, pruned some other plants, filled up the compost, picked up some fallen branches... basically anything my brain wanted me to do - apart from writing.

The good news is I buckled down later and added 1400 words.  Not the 1667 required, but on my way to get there.  It's now 9pm and hopefully I have another hour in me to work before bed.  Another 300 words and I'll do the total for today, but I need 900 words to catch up to where I should be.

Nano total: 7391
Today's mantra:  Write or weed, that is the question

So after I posted yesterday (see blog post below), I did get on my bicycle and get some words on the screen.  I'm above the required Nano count for Day 2, and that's all that matters, right?

Today's Nano total was crap though.  I spent some time doing Mummy duties this morning, then switched to the Housewife cap and brought an atrocious amount of vegetables at the shop.  (Note to self: this is supposed to be spring!  Where are all the spring veggies coming out of the garden?  You've been lazy.)

By the time I got around to putting my Author cap on, read through yesterday's work, deleted some of it, added to some... I was then a whole 173 words up.  The Housewife cap came back out while I vacuumed the house, then I dashed off to pick up a child.  (Interesting note: I was pulled over by police on horseback today... random breath test.  Not something that happens regularly to me. The guy was an arse though.)

Other good news?  I've washed the grey out of my hair tonight.  Dinner was quiche, which contained eggs from the chooks, and spring onions and carrots from the garden.  Score.  And my characters are finally talking.  I'm doing well.  Hopefully I can get this misunderstanding between them sorted tonight after the kids go to bed.

Nano total: 3833 
Today's mantra: Chill!  It will be okay.
