New Release

Some things you can outrun. The SWARM isn’t one of them.

In the small town of Mullins, Nebraska, two things are certain: nothing good happens on Caleb Hartwood’s birthday, and the government building known as The Hive has been a mystery since the day it was built.

Men in suits call it agricultural research. The residents of Mullins say nothing at all. But as kids, Caleb and his best friend, Bryan Kightlinger, had theories. Every summer, the two would-be detectives crept closer, dug deeper, and pieced together a truth about what was really happening behind those gleaming walls.

Then his eighteenth birthday destroyed what little he had left, and Caleb fled town, swearing he'd never return.

Fifteen years later, he’s back to bury his father, but Mullins isn’t the town Caleb remembers. Bryan has grown more politically ambitious. The townsfolk have become more reclusive. And The Hive has noticed Caleb is home.

To survive what’s coming, Caleb will need the town that fears him, the friend he no longer knows, and answers to questions he stopped asking a long time ago.


Coming Soon

Releasing November 11

Very romantic. Very campy comedy.

They say love is everywhere this time of year. Tucked under the mistletoes, scrawled across handheld cue cards, waiting at the arrivals gate with a sign held just a little too high. But at Berkeley Shore University, love (and a great deal more) is unwrapping itself behind the closed doors of five very naughty Barracudas.

Gerard and Elliot are learning how not to be quiet in the library. Drew and Jackson are taking steam to a whole new level. Oliver and Ryan are bringing fantasies to life, while Kyle and Alex are sharing secrets over eggnog. And then there’s Nathan, who may just be the biggest surprise of them all.

Five sinful stories set over one snowy December day, where four couples and one lonely heart can’t stop crossing paths. Because this Christmas, Barracudas, actually, is all around.

Releasing November 30

Rule one of being a cheerleader: don’t fall for the football player who thinks your sport is a joke.

Tommy Jenkins has spent two years as co-captain of Wildbrook University’s nationally ranked cheer squad, perfecting every stunt, every tumble, every count of eight. He’s used to the snickers in the hallways and the jocks who think his uniform is a punchline. He has a trophy case full of comebacks and a sharp tongue for anyone who still doesn’t get it.

Hunter Campbell is Wildbrook’s golden-boy wide receiver and the guy Jesse has been verbally sparring with since freshman year. When a drunken rant of Hunter calling cheerleading “glorified choreography” goes viral, the athletic department hands down a very public punishment. Six weeks of cross-training with the cheer squad, under Jesse’s command.

Jesse plans to make him suffer. Hunter plans to coast through it and get back to the gridiron where he belongs. Neither of them plans for the heat that sparks every time they step onto the mat.

As Nationals approach and the season builds toward its loudest moment, Jesse will have to decide whether he’s willing to be Hunter’s frenemy for life, or be tossed into the air and caught in the arms of a lover.

Meet the Author

Christopher J. Brice is the author of adult and young adult queer romances.

Ever since he was a young boy, Christopher J. Brice has had a very active imagination. His love for creating interesting characters couldn’t be stopped, and he started putting the proverbial pen to paper shortly after graduating from college.

When his writing journey began, he had a choice to make—screenplays or novels. He honed his craft creating stories for the silver screen, from romance to drama, and horror to soap operas. As an avid reader, he realized that he had so much more to tell that a two-hour movie could never convey. Thus, Christopher decided to write his very first novel. And as the saying goes, the rest is history.

When Christopher is not writing or reading, he enjoys spending time with friends, family, and the most adorable cat known to mankind.
