One monstrous feastTails, Trysts, and Tentacles
Guess what's coming to dinner! One Monstrous Feast: Tails, Trysts, and Tentacles - A Monster Romance Anthology just debuted on October 15, 2024. The Trevor Project is dedicated to providing crisis support and safe spaces for LGBTQ+ youth.
Eleven indie authors invite you to sink your teeth into this decadent collection of sweet and spicy monster romance short stories. With dragons and demons, mythical beasts, and creatures of legend, One Monstrous Feast is guaranteed to turn up the heat on a chilly autumn night. My short story in this anthology, written under my pen name Nyx Coronado, is titled Dragon Navidad, and it is the closing story in this anthology. Dragon Navidad Description: Dragon shifters are analytical, possessive, and dominant. Camila is all of those things, but when it comes to Ruiz her dragon starts to take over—eager to claim him and make sure he knows he’s a valued part of her hoard. |

My short story in this anthology is titled Pestilence, and it can be found in chapter five.
