Welcome to Riptide Publishing
Riptide Publishing is a boutique purveyor of some of the finest LGBTQ fiction, romance, and erotica
available today. Created by industry professionals and LGBTQ authors who were hungry for more favorable
editing, marketing support, and production values, Riptide Publishing seeks to fill a critical niche in the
LGBTQ market: quality books, pristinely packaged, that will satisfy readers’ desires for rich, plotty, welledited stories.
Romance and Beyond
Riptide is a romance-focused house, but that’s not all we offer. First and foremost, Riptide publishes
quality LGBTQ fiction. Erotica? Yes. Romance? Absolutely. But stories with LGBTQ protagonists or a
focus on the LGBTQ experience also have a place at Riptide. From high fantasy to historicals to upmarket
contemporaries, Riptide’s offerings would be at home not just on LGBTQ shelves, but also on genre and
popular fiction shelves.
Sales Support
Our marketing team works to build and maintain reader excitement about every release by implementing a
custom blend of social media, print/digital promotions, and targeted outreach—and we never stop promoting
our backlist titles. Whether launching a debut author or heralding an award-winning bestseller, we work
hard to garner wide attention and accolades for all our authors and titles, including reviews in national
outlets like Publisher’s Weekly, Library Journal, USA Today, Romance Times Magazine, and Dear Author, and
widespread recognition from juries at the Lambda Awards, EPIC Awards, Rainbow Awards, Goodreads
Choice Awards, and more.
As Riptide is an ebook-focused press, our titles never go out of print or fall out of the public eye. Thus,
rather than organize our catalog by season, the following pages are arranged by genre. Metadata—including
heat levels—are included for each title, along with a URL where you’ll find more thorough metadata and
keyword information to help you determine the right titles for your markets.

Hypothetical love can be a real pain in the ass.
Paul’s been called many things, but “forgiving” isn’t one of them. When the new softball coach
at Calapooya College requests Paul to tutor his athletes, he’s forced to ignore his “no athletes”

school boyfriend. Yeah, that one—the guy who sacrificed Paul for the safety of his closet and
his future career. But Trevor’s out and retired now, and now he’s looking for a second chance.
There’s no earthly reason Paul should give him one, but he keeps letting the man state his case.
And touch him. And take him sailing. The waters are far from smooth, though, and Paul has to
decide: forgive Trevor, or move on.

It took a morning meeting with a frat brother’s hairy, naked ass for Brad to admit it, but he

Brad’s history class, is everything Brad is not. Intellectual, suave, hairy. Out. Brad’s been with
plenty of girls, but with Sebastian, the sex is something else entirely. And when mind-blowing
sex turns into something more—dare he admit the “L” word?—Brad must face the crushing
realization that Sebastian doesn’t feel the same. Unless, of course, he does. After all, even grad
students can be idiots about matters of the heart.

With a wedge at last driven between Mat and Dougie Carmichael, courtesy of Nikolai Petrovic’s
expert manipulations, the brothers must each accept their new path forward: Dougie, a perfect
slave, sweet and obedient and loving. Mat, a tightly reined dog, snarling and snapping but never
allowed to bite. Unfortunately, no transformation, however well planned, is without its growing
pains. Mat’s leash is so tight it’s choking him. Dougie is tormented by a little voice inside his
head—a fragment of his former self—that he cannot silence.

Nikolai Petrovic is a man of refinement. He collects fine art, enjoys gourmet cuisine, and trains
boutique sex slaves for some of the wealthiest—and most morally dubious—men and women in
the world. Charged by a wealthy client to buy a man to train but not break—to shape into a skilled,
obedient slave who will yield with hatred rather than love in his eyes—Nikolai finds the perfect
raw material in Mathias Carmichael. But there’s a problem: he was auctioned off in a lot with his
beautiful younger brother.

eager to please.

$4.99 ebook
Death is the family business, and Brendan Connolly is about to come into his legacy. Nobody
warned Bren that Dad was a death god, or that someday he’d inherit his powers. So far, falling
in love with the angel sent to protect him has been the only good thing to come out of this
whole mess. Bren’s guardian angel, Lorygdarain, knows the aura of a ticking supernatural time
bomb when he sees one. Add to that the angel’s first taste of the human emotion called love,
and protecting Bren from the god who killed his father could be Dar’s hardest job in an eon.
Snakes, amnesia, and a mysterious god named Bob might not be much of a rescue plan, but
one guardian angel can only do so much. With a veritable pantheon on his heels, and the
universe hanging in the balance, Bren must learn to lock and load the most dangerous weapon
of all: himself.

more polite than the stoners, and Josh welcomes the break in the monotony—especially when
he acquires himself a sexy new boyfriend with a deadly secret. Will Josh survive this retail
nightmare? It’s a Big Gulp of a chance, but between the hazard pay and the hottie with a sweet
tooth for Josh’s candy, it’s a chance he’s willing to take.

What’s a poor night clerk to do when he’s besieged on all sides by deluded vampire slayers,
angry zombies, crazy gods, and the most terrifying enemy of all: a dickish CEO? To survive
this, Josh will have to do more than rely on his necromancer boss, his hot vampire boyfriend,
and his yeti stalker. This time, he’ll have to find his own inner hero to save the day.

$3.99 ebook
What most people call a hellish shift, Josh Caplan calls a normal evening. But some monsters
are odder—and more dangerous—than most. Like the rampaging, oversized mustache who
skips the Pringles and eats the customers instead. Or Cthulhu’s half-brother Stan, who doesn’t
know how to take no for an answer . . . or where to put all those tentacles. Yet even those pale
in comparison to the monster other monsters fear. When hell’s big boss demands a sit-down
with Josh, she reveals a destiny bigger than he’d ever imagined.

As night-shift clerk at the go-to Quik-Mart for monsters with the munchies, Josh believes
he’s seen it all. But then a yeti with poor communication skills drops a dead skunk on the
checkout counter. The living, breathing shag carpet won’t leave him alone, but hey, at least it
seems harmless . . . until two human customers try to out-monster the monsters. Times are
strange when creatures from the hell portal save the day, but between the lovesick yeti and a
sexy vampire boyfriend, maybe Josh’s new normal isn’t so bad after all.

$0.99 ebook
Josh Caplan knew the night shift at the Quik-Mart would be full of freaks and geeks—and
that was before the hell portal opened in the parking lot. Still, he likes to think he can roll
with things, and it’s not all lizard-monsters and the walking dead. There’s also the mysterious
hottie with a taste for sweets who might also be sweet on Josh. Now if only Josh could figure
out whether that’s a good thing. After all, with the hell vortex nearby, Josh has learned to take
nothing at face value—even if it’s a very pretty face.

him up to Earth. He’s not so happy about the mean old detectives interrupting him halfway
through his dinner—but he changes his mind after getting an eyeful of Lars’s muscular,
Nordic charms. Now Rael has a vested interest in keeping Lars safe from the real killer, even if

Pierce must turn to other bodily fluids for sustenance. Together, Cary and Pierce find a
mutually pleasurable solution to both their problems. Turns out, though, there’s more to this

$2.99 ebook
Since finding her father’s body at the bottom of the basement stairs, Annette’s been drifting
through her days, watching cars pass down the rural Ontario crossroads beside her house. Then
she meets Sadie, a tattooed, world-weary, newly single portrait artist. Something about Sadie
awakens something in Annette—the essence she captures in her subjects, perhaps, or the way
the old familiar crossroads seem so fresh and promising from the view out Sadie’s window. Their
slowly heating friendship melts into passionate nights, and somewhere along the way, Annette
discovers that her lover has helped her to discover her own endless worlds of possibilities.
“[B]eautiful; I literally went back and read it over again from the beginning.”
Portside, by Elyan Smith
June 18, 2012 • www.riptidepublishing.com/titles/portside
$2.99 ebook
Life on the dole in a dying town is defined by drinking when you can, smoking to pass the
time, and, if you’re gay, going down to the old port to get some. Everyone else seems to have
learned how to get what they want, yet Iwan can’t get past everything that could go wrong. He
knows who he is, regardless of labels, but he doesn’t trust others to see past his mismatched
body. Paying for what he’s afraid to get for free may seem absurd, but it’s better than just
watching, and it’s better than porn. It may not change the world he lives in, but with luck, it
will change him.
The Heart’s Greater Silence, by Anne Brooke

Mark isn’t sure he believes in love, especially when he finds himself torn between his reliable
boyfriend, Craig, and his illicit lover and priest, Richard. The sex with Richard is unlike
anything he’s ever known, and he hungers for it as much as—if not more than—the truer
intimacy he finds in his boyfriend’s arms. When Craig discovers his betrayal, Mark is forced to
examine his life more closely, but the path to self-knowledge is never an easy one. Richard seeks
the way back to God, but Mark finds no solace there. Can he ever discover the truth of his own
soul, or is he too afraid of what he will—or won’t—find inside his heart?
