The Princess of Baker Street by Mia Kerick
When she was a child, Joey Kinkaid-- assigned as a boy at birth--led her neighborhood on fantastic after-school adventures, but those innocent childhood days are over, and the magic is gone. The princess is alone.
Even Eric Sinclair, the Prince Eric to Joey’s Princess Ariel, has turned his back on his former friend, watching in silence as Joey is tormented at school. But Eric can’t stay on the sidelines forever. When Joey finally accepts her female gender, the bullies readily take the opportunity she hands them, driving Joey to attempt suicide and leaving Eric at a crossroads—one that will influence both their lives in not just the present, but the future.
Is there a chance the two teens can be friends again, and maybe even more?

IP Welcomes Mia Kerick and The Weekend Bucket List
Interlude Press is proud to welcome award-winning author Mia Kerick to its Duet Books for LGBTQ-YA fiction.
On April 19th, Duet will publish THE WEEKEND BUCKET LIST, her story of expectations, love and friendship:
High school seniors Cady LaBrie and Cooper Murphy have yet to set one toe out of line—they’ve never stayed out all night or snuck into a movie, never gotten drunk or gone skinny-dipping. But they have each other, forty-eight hours before graduation, and a Weekend Bucket List.
There’s a lot riding on this one weekend, especially since Cady and Cooper have yet to admit, much less resolve, their confounding feelings for one another—feelings that prove even more difficult to discern when genial high school dropout Eli Stanley joins their epic adventure. But as the trio ticks through their bucket list, the questions they face shift toward something new: Must friendship play second fiddle to romance? Or can it be the ultimate prize?
Look for the cover reveal for The Weekend Bucket List next week on @LGBTQreads.
A recipient of a @forewordreviews‘ INDIES Award for The Red Sheet (Harmony Ink, 2014), she has also received Rainbow Book Awards, a Reader Views’ Book by Book Publicity Literary Award, the Jack Eadon Award for Best Book in Contemporary Drama, and a Royal Dragonfly Award for her collection of both adult and young adult LGBTQ fiction.
Welcome, Mia!

Hide Your Love Away (IF I FELL Series Book 1) by Mia Kerick: New Release Review
Hide Your Love Away (IF I FELL Series Book 1) by Mia Kerick: #NewRelease #BookReview #lgbtq #mmromance #gayromance #agegap #2stars
Too young.
Too damaged.
Too close to Cole’s enormous secret for comfort.
Rough and tumble Edgewater University maintenance man Colton Ledger should keep his distance from the sleek and snarky college junior who has caught his attention. After all, Timmy is half his age, not to mention that Cole has a secret life he can’t afford to reveal. So why is he compelled to undermine the young man’s cocky…

REVIEW
Born for Leaving by Jude Munro
A newspaper request for a place to rent
A man with a room available to rent
A bartender and a bouncer will share a house
Two men with potential to become more than roommates
This was a sweet story with the promise of love, safety, a sense of belonging and “home” for Oliver and Bodie. Both men have trust issues and are a bit silent and rather distant from others but do make a connection with one another. The question is whether or not the one “born for leaving” will decide to stay or leave once again.
What I liked:
* Oliver: a mixologist-bartender with debts and dreams. He has a home, a dog and has been burned in love. He knows what he wants but it might take time for him to get everything he wants.
* Bodie: a strong rather silent man but still waters run deep. He had a difficult childhood and has reasons for keeping himself apart. He is a jack of all trades that feels safe rooming with Oliver
* The relationship that builds between Oliver and Brodie – sweet and charming and filled with hope
* Hugo – a special yellow lab that is special to both Oliver and Bodie, too.
* Sam and his daughter LeeLee, Mika and Nico – great friends and colleagues of Oliver and later of Bodie, too.
* The way the friends looked out for one another
* The information about mixology that was shared
* That the story did not veer away from tough subjects
* The way the story made me think and care and feel while hoping for a HEA for the two men
* Knowing that there was a good future for the people I learned to care about in the story
What I did not like:
* Knowing that the tougher issues faced by both Oliver and Bodie are confronted daily by people in the real world. People should not have to put up with harassment at work, child abuse, attempted rape/rape, etc
* Having to say goodbye to the characters when the story ended
Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more by this author? Yes
Thank you to the author for the ARC – This is my honest review.
5 Stars
BLURB
When they say be careful what you wish for, do you pay attention?
Neither did Oliver Tunstead.
Oliver wishes for nothing more than to get his mind off his crappy bartending job, pile of debt big enough to swallow him whole, and playboy ex-boyfriend/boss who refuses to back off. Too bad distractions, like the hot little convertible he has his eye on, cost megabucks. And Oliver is flat broke. Renting the spare bedroom in his rundown beachfront cottage is his only option to pick up the cash he needs--a risky proposition, as Oliver is the polar opposite of a people-person. When he responds to a bizarre ad in the Waterfront Gazette seeking summer housing, he gets more than he bargained for. But Oliver can cope... After all, how much harm can a single quirky tenant do to his tightly guarded life in three short months?
Where Oliver is a loner by design, urban cowboy Bodie is a loner by necessity. A family dispute long ago dropkicked him onto the path of a lifelong wanderer. This changes when Bodie moves into the tiny beachfront cottage and starts working the door at Oliver's bar.
Despite Oliver and Bodie's nearly paralyzing instinct to avoid commitment, they fall into a wary romance. And to their surprise, life as a couple is sweetly satisfying; that is, until their jealous boss devises a cruel plan to destroy the tentative bond they've built. True to form, Bodie hits the road, leaving Oliver to lick his wounds alone.
Can these wounded souls defy their urge to flee and fight for love?
**Trigger Warning: discussion of childhood sexual molestation of adult character, graphic physical violence, off-page coerced sexual relationship
