I'm pleased to announce the release of the 5th book in my Canadian Werewolf urban fantasy thriller series: Lover's Moon.

While the series has always leveraged humor, it took the support of my good friend Julie Strauss to help me create this paranormal romantic comedy flashback tale to how the two main characters of the series first met.

The book was released May 24, 2022 and is available in Hardcover, Trade Paperback, and eBook. The audiobook is in production - but in the meantime, Julie and I are taking a note from the playbook of Terry Fallis and are doing a "read by the author" version of the book via a weekly podcast appearing at Lovers Moon Podcast.

Book Description:

He’s an alpha wolf and a beta boyfriend.

She’s dated every monster in New York City.

It’s time for their Meat-Cute.

Michael Andrews, a Canadian living in New York, is learning to live with the side effects of lycanthropy. Other than waking up naked and bloody in Central Park once a month, he’s managing just fine. If only he could finish the book he’s supposed to be writing. If only he could find someone he trusted enough to tell the truth to.

Gail Sommers may not have her love life in order, but at least she’s smart about things that really matter. She runs the coolest occult shop in the city, and is a pre-eminent scholar of the occult. She’s made a vow of celibacy so that she can spend this year focusing on her work and her self-care. She’s even been hired to help out a very famous and very sexy horror author.

As a new era in the Canadian Werewolf saga begins, Lover’s Moon flashes back to the romantic and comedic story of how Michael and Gail met and fell in love back in the summer of 2011. Told through both Michael and Gail's unique perspectives, it also explores Gail's past, introduces new characters, and reveals some of the deeper secrets of both of their lives.

A special Canadian Werewolf tale co-authored by Mark Leslie and contemporary romance author Julie Strauss.
