Sweet Young Thang (TAG #3)

SweetYoungThang_468banner

When Plan A fails, turn to Man A.

Thanks to Collin Montes, Theta Alpha Gamma now welcomes gay and bisexual students. Persuading his Uncle Monty, president of the TAG Alumni Association, that the open approach won’t adversely affect TAG’s reputation is Collin’s own first step toward coming out. As long as there are no repercussions, he’ll escape the closet by graduation.

Enter repercussions, stage left: someone rigs the TAG House water heater to launch through the ceiling, then plants a bomb—thankfully unsuccessful—in the fraternity’s basement. Now Collin has his hands full not only trying to convince his uncle that this might not be the work of homophobes, but also dealing with a fratful of brothers worried about their kegger fridge.

Paramedic Eric Dixon can’t stop thinking about the kid he met during a call at his former college fraternity house. The age gap between them is trumped by sexy eyes, so when Eric sees Collin again at the bomb scene, he pursues him. Soon, Eric is dreaming of being a househusband, fighting to keep Collin safe from whoever’s trying to destroy the fraternity, and helping his sweet young thang realize that repercussions sometimes have silver linings.

SWEET YOUNG THANG is available for preorder from Riptide now! Excerpts coming soon, I promise. :-)

Next up . . .

Untitled (Brad and Sebastian short)

Uh, more details soon . . .

Poster Boy (TAG #4)

PB will be the last story in the TAG trilogy (which became a quadrilogy, or whatever it’s called, when someone convinced me to write Paul’s novella, Love Hypothetically). This book is the story of Toby—originally Sebastian’s roommate before Brad and Sebastian met—and Tank’s little brother, Jock.

Except I can’t seem to decide if his name should be Jock (a bastardization of Jacques) or Gavin. I don’t know what the deal is with that, but I’ve already started writing it, so… We’ll see what happens. Assuming I get this one in on time, it will be out in early October from Riptide.

    Will Collin get his own story?

  2. Hannah E. says:

    I loved Frat Boy and Toppy! I bought it as a birthday present to myself and finished it within 24 hours. Thanks for giving me something to smile (and laugh out loud) about!

  3. Anne Tenino says:

    Why can’t I reply to you? IDK.

    Anyway, funny you should bring up Paul, because some people might have given me a plot bunny for him. He probably deserves to fall in love with a jock with an ass like a juicy apple, don’t you think?

  4. Theodora says:

    I’m a fan of your works since 18% Gray so I’m definetely going to buy Turning Tricks. Will it also be published by DSP? I really can’t wait to read it! in fact, I will be looking forward to reading all your WIPs once they are completed, including Collin. Paul, and Toby’s stories. you will publish them sooner or later, right? (the sooner the better though, not to perssure you or anything :p

    • Anne Tenino says:

      Hi Theodora! I’m glad you can’t wait! I kind of can’t wait, either, come to think of it… And yes, Dreamspinner is publishing Turning Tricks, and the release date is scheduled for May 30th. After that, I’m not positive, but I really, really need to update my WIP and Coming Soon pages.

      And yes, both Collin and Paul will get a story. I’m hoping I’ll get one of them out before the end of the year, but honestly I don’t know, I don’t have a deadline. I’m still working on Sam (from Whitetail Rock) and Ian’s story, which should be out before mid-October.

  5. keodhia says:

    I’m a certified stalker of your books. Just literally finished frat boy and came to see if Collin, Paul and Toby are getting a book. Cant wait to read them. Please email me when r released.

    • Anne Tenino says:

      Cool! Where do you get stalker certification, anyway? And yes, in case you didn’t find the answer, Paul and Collin will get their own books. I’m sure Toby will, too, but I’m not sure when or who the guy will be. I’m actually working on Paul’s now. His will be more novella (or even short story, actually) than book, but he’ll get one. As a bonus, the mystery over his hatred of jocks will be be uncovered. ;-)

      Hmmm, guess I should make a mailing list, huh? Then I can tell people when stuff is coming out.

      • keodhia says:

        You can only get certification to stalk if you are truly obsessed with an author. I have several certificates. Lol. So excited to hear about your upcoming projects. It’s so hard to find good m/m author’s.

      • Foretta says:

        OH yea! I would love to be put on a mailing list! if you ever make one! They are the best! Can’t wait to read more of your work… when you finish it since I’ve read everything! LOL

  6. Anne Tenino says:

    Well, I’m sort of in the middle of setting up a newsletter. . . You know, after I finish this next book. :-/

  7. Lisa Thomson says:

    Another Author joins the ‘Watch This Space’ List

    Hello from Australia! I’m halfway thru 18% (audiobook via Audible.com*) & I’ve had to stop it to jump on the net to look up the Author – YAY! There’s a sequel. When is it going to be recorded (Puleese say it’s going to be recorded).

    * I have NO self discipline when it comes to reading, NONE. If I didn’t listen to audiobooks instead of reading the books the housework wouldn’t get done, I wouldn’t have a job, I’d be chronically sleep-deprived (hang on, actually I am chronically sleep deprived), but at least I can load the dishwasher while listening to a book. It’s 12.04am here & I’m on a deadline on a project (& starting to get pretty nervous about it …), but I’m on the net finding out about the book that comes after the one I’m listening to …. Did I mention the bit about NO self discipline? [sigh].
    But please, when will it hit Audible? Or any other audiobook provider?
    Thank you!
    Lisa :D
    (I usually don’t use so many exclamation points but it’s late & I’ve found another Author!)

    • Anne Tenino says:

      Hi Lisa! You sound like me—I always wait until the last minute to finish anything with a deadline. LOL As for when TT will hit Audible, I don’t know unfortunately. That’s something Dreamspinner decides, and I don’t know how they made the decision to record 18% in the first place. I guess I would say you should contact them (http://www.dreamspinnerpress.com) and ask when they plan on making an audio file of the book. I’d ask, but they seem to respond better to readers who say “I want this!” than to me saying “People are telling me they want this.” I dunno why, it’s a mystery.

      I’m really glad to hear you’re enjoying 18%! :-)
      Anne

  8. Mercedes says:

    Hi I just recently discovered your work and I absolutely LOVED 18% Gray it was my first science fiction book. I wanted to ask if Logan and Laslo would be getting a book in the series? I just really liked them the brief time there were in the boom and was really curious.

    Thanks!

    • Anne Tenino says:

      Hi Mercedes! Yes, I promise Laslo and Logan will get a book—the next book in the series, actually. I’m hoping it will be out in the first half of 2013, but I’m still working on it. I’m glad you liked 18% enough to stop by my site. :-) Thanks!

  9. Katie Bobb says:

    What about Jules, he seemed quirky. Loved Frat Boy and Toppy :) Reading Paul’s soon

    • Anne Tenino says:

      Hi Katie :-) Well, the honest truth is that Jules is straight. I know, it may be hard to believe, but he’s one of those “other” types of guys—the straight ones who get pegged as gay but aren’t. I briefly toyed with having him go gay, but I actually wrote him originally to be straight so I feel like he should probably stay that way…

      I’m glad you liked the book!

  10. Sassafrass says:

    this sounds great, I can’t wait for it’s release! ~Sassafrass

  11. Larissa Rodgers says:

    This sounds like a good one! I’ll be adding it to my tbr!

  12. Lee Anne says:

    Thank you so much for participating in the Erotic Enchants Party! Authors like you have made this so much fun!

    Lee *Show me the Smut* Anne

  13. Stopping in to say Hello and Thank you from Erotic Enchants!

  14. Heather in FL says:

    Just checking in from EE! Thanks for participating!

  15. Anna says:

    Hello! I am also from the EE group. Congrats on the new book!

  16. Darling Amanda says:

    Thanks from the EE group and Happy Holidays!

  17. Baby says:

    Another EE person here. Happy Holidays!

  18. Anthomaniac says:

    EE!

  19. Can’t wait to find the story!

  20. Scraps says:

    Wish I could follow this page so that I’d know when you updated it! I’ve enjoyed all that I’ve read by you so far (haven’t read the Task Force books, I’m not much into sci-fi) and can’t wait to read more! You’ve got a fan who has you on her auto buy list!

  21. Anne Tenino says:

    I really need to get my act together and do that newsletter, don’t I? I’m lame. You can follow the blog (bottom item in the right sidebar), but you’d get all my posts. Not that I’m much of a blogger, here.

  22. Theresa says:

    I just finished reading To Stupid to Live and I loved it. I’m always excited to read about Sam and Nik’s friendship. To see that Sam finally found love, was a gift worth waiting for. Is there a wedding and kids in the future for both Nik and Jurgen? I think it would be hilarious to see Nik’s attitude dealing with both marriage and kids.

    Thanks again for such a great story.

    • Anne Tenino says:

      OMG, can you imagine Nik with kids? That’s insane. Although definitely an intriguing idea… I have characters I’m planning on giving kids someday (whether in my head or in a story), but Nik never crossed my mind. I think he needs a little too much attention for himself to share.

  23. Hi Anne,

    Just finished Too Stupid to Live and loved it. Will you be following up with stories for Miller and Tierney?

    • Anne Tenino says:

      I will be, but I think it’s unlikely they’ll be out before 2014. :-/ I’m working on finishing up my Theta Alpha Gamma series this year (and I’ll never write more than one series at a time again. Probably), and then I’ll be working on Romancelandia full steam ahead.

      I’m glad to hear you liked it!

  24. alisn says:

    hi…so i just barrelled through 18% Gray and Turning Tricks…loved them! i know you mentioned laslo and logan’s story, One Queer Iota, that didn’t get written cause you wrote Tricks instead, just wondering if we’ll ever see the book you were “supposed” to write…didn’t see it on the coming soon page. :(

    • Anne Tenino says:

      Hi alisn-

      I’m very much planning on writing Laslo and Logan’s story this year, although at this point it won’t be out until 2014. I know that’s hugely disappointing to a lot of people, and I’m really sorry, but I’d like to explain why (and I should probably do a blog post about this). For various reasons, I won’t be publishing the rest of the series with Dreamspinner, but with Riptide. The problem there is that I’m committed to three books for Riptide first (one of which I just completed, except for edits—Sweet Young Thang). Once those three books are out of the way (and before I begin two other projects I’ve committed to) I’ll write One Queer Iota. I’m really excited about the story, and I certainly haven’t lost interest in the series (there will be a few books after OQI), so I can guarantee it will be out eventually, just not as soon as I’d like. :-(
