TCO is so excited to bring you 12 Days of Kissmas. We have 12 of your favorite authors ahead over the coming days, bringing you beautiful pictures of men kissing that the authors have chosen themselves, along with exclusive posts, excerpts, and giveaways. The idea sprang from a conversation with an author that just turned into a “what if…”, and when I started asking a few authors, they immediately said they were in. Make sure you enter the giveaways, as there are lots of them! Thanks for stopping by, and a HUGE thank you to all the authors for their generosity, and loving spirit. Happy Holidays to everyone!
The pic I’ve chosen is a sweet, innocent kiss. For me, there’s something beautiful about it. Sure, hot and steamy kissing pics are always fun, but a you’re-so-damn-cute-when-you-eat-cornflakes kiss is intimately sweet.
My newest release, Switched, focuses on the evolving relationship between the main character, Israel Ingham, and his best friend, Sam. They’ve been best friends forever. Sam knows all of Israel’s secrets and fears, he knows what makes him laugh, he knows what foods and loves and hates; he knows everything.
Except what turns him on, what he tastes like, what he’s like in bed.
Taking the first step from friends to lovers is always risky, but Israel’s about to learn that the best things in life always are.
Switched will be out on December 27th, exclusive to Amazon.
Israel Ingham’s life has never been easy. He grew up in a house devoid of love and warmth. Nothing he ever did was good enough. The fact Israel is gay just added to the long list of his father’s disappointments.
Then a letter from Eastport Children’s Hospital changes everything.
A discovery is made, one of gross human error. Twenty-six years ago two baby boys were switched at birth and sent home with the wrong families.
Sam, Israel’s best friend, has been his only source of love and support. With Sam beside him every step of the way, Israel decides to meet his birth mother and her son, the man who lived the life Israel should have.
Israel and Sam become closer than ever, amidst the tumultuous emotions of meeting his birth family, and Sam finds himself questioning his feelings toward his best friend. As Israel embraces new possibilities, he needs to dissect his painful relationship with his parents in order to salvage what’s left.
Because sometimes it takes proof you’re not actually family to become one.
N.R. Walker is an Australian author, who loves her genre of gay romance. She loves writing and spends far too much time doing it, but wouldn’t have it any other way.
She is many things; a mother, a wife, a sister, a writer. She has pretty, pretty boys who live in her head, who don’t let her sleep at night unless she gives them life with words.
She likes it when they do dirty, dirty things…but likes it even more when they fall in love.
She used to think having people in her head talking to her was weird, until one day she happened across other writers who told her it was normal.
She’s been writing ever since…
N.R. Walker is giving away an ebook of the winner’s choice. Just let us know you think about the blurb and/or cover of Switched.

The cover gives off the tone the blurb have; really catch my eye.
James Escol says
I’m really looking forward to this book.
Israel’s been “left in the dark” ’bout his origin (not necessarily by his parents or could be too. IDK the story yet, anyway) so the cover’s PERFECT for the story.
Blurb has definitely got my attention. Haven’t read something like this one. I think I have an idea of what’s going to happen here.
Thanks for coming by, Miss Walker! <3
Alex Miska says
The cover is very stark and eye-catching. The blurb is succinct and descriptive… I like the final sentence. I get the sense that the story is extremely serious and stormy, without the lighthearted moments I enjoy so much from N.R. Walker.
Shirley Ann Speakman says
Great cover and I liked the blurb. I think after such a bad childhood it would be a kind of relief when he found out he has lived with the wrong family.
Angela says
I love Nr Walkers writing and this one is definitely on my Wish-TBR list. The cover is stunning and very different from all the other book covers by Nr Walker, Love it. Congrats on the upcoming release. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Sula says
The cover image suggest a tale quite deep and angsty, one to drag your emotions on a roller coaster on the tumultuous (but hopefully happy ending) journey for the characters: good and bad, joy and sadness, love and.. Thank you for a chance to win one of her books
