Magic University
The third volume in Cecilia Tan''s LGBT new adult paranormal romance series. Since his arrival as a freshman at Veritas, the hidden magical university inside Harvard, Kyle Wadsworth has been on a quest for true love. He''s had his heart broken a few times along the way, though, and now halfway through his junior year he thinks he isn''t ready to love again. He has grown obsessed with studying an ancient prophecy and is still haunted by past events, even in his dreams. But Kyle isn''t the only one suffering from haunted dreams. One of his good friends, an enchantment student named Lindy Carmichael, is having uncontrollably erotic dreams and difficulty with magic. Lindy, a sexually naive young woman who, like Kyle, did not grow up in the magical world, fears she is losing her power. Kyle can''t do anything about the incubus haunting her nights, but power is one thing he can provide-through erotic magic. Lindy and Kyle start "dating," first for the sake of schoolwork, but they quickly become more serious about each other. As their romance blossoms, Kyle discovers perhaps he can do something about the incubus after all. Is Kyle the hero prophesied in the ancient texts? Whether he is or not, there is one person whose help he must enlist. The one person who wants the least to do with him. The person Kyle sees in his dreams: his old Gladius House rival, Frost. "Cecilia Tan brought me into her world of magic with a plot that intrigued me from the start. Power comes in many forms and I found myself enthralled with the erotic nights spent between Lindy and Kyle." --Siren Book Reviews "The Incubus and the Angel is an entertainingread that has a similar magical world structure as the Harry Potter books, though these tales of magic definitely aren''t for children. Kyle is a strong hero but with a touch of femininity which helps him relate to Lindy in ways an alpha male type couldn''t. He''s been hurt emotionally, but willing to keep searching for his soul mate. I like that resiliency about him."--You Gotta Read Reviews "If you want a book about students practicing magic and sex, this is definitely the one for you." --Erotica Readers Association"

Bent for Leather

release date: Apr 10, 2023
Bent for Leather
"Tan''s collection of stories is a symphony of lust: queer desire, heartbreak, power, surrender, and a dulcet submersion into the inner ache of wanting." --Sinclair Sexsmith, author of the Sugarbutch Chronicles From the award-winning writer and erotica pioneer, Cecilia Tan, comes a collection of her queerest and most personal erotic stories, Bent for Leather. Published to coincide with her keynote speech at International Ms. Leather and Bootblack in 2023, an event that was postponed three years because of the pandemic, Bent for Leather collects stories that span nearly 30 years, many of which originally appeared in publications such as the groundbreaking lesbian erotica magazine, On Our Backs, or the recent Best Lesbian Erotica of the Year (Vol 7) anthology. Coming from the pen of a kinky bisexual writer, these stories feature many characters who are butches, androgynes, or bois, and whose labels--or their lovers--may be nonbinary, or transmasculine, or bigender. All are sizzlingly erotic, exploring the deepest desires of the characters, what it takes to satisfy them, and just what makes them Bent for Leather. "I jumped into the world of BDSM role play in my twenties, and I quickly found that I could be a girl, boy, maid, slave, or puppy and that none of these roles actually depended on my gender or physical body. All they depended on was the story that my play partners and I were creating together. So I guess it''s no surprise that these reflections of my inner self have come out in my erotic stories. My brain has always been my biggest sex organ, and storytelling and fantasy have always been my biggest kinks." --From the Introduction by Cecilia Tan
