I'm on page 162 of Covalent Bonds. I do not normally gravitate towards romance as a genre, but Covalent Bonds is a geek romance anthology. It won't be released until February 14, 2017, so I honestly should be reading another book whose review will be published sooner, but this is too much fun. If I had been into conventions or gaming as a teen, these would be my fantasies.
COVALENT BONDSAnthology edited by Trysh Thompson
Red Moon Anthologies, Volume Three
It will be out on Valentine's Day 2017, so stay tuned here for my full review and reminder when it is published!
ANTHOLOGIST BIO:Trysh Thompson has written just about every form of non-fiction you can think of-everything from news, movie reviews, magazine columns, marketing hype, software manuals, and was even an editorial assistant on a gardening book no one has ever read ( The 7-Minute Organic Garden -see, you've never heard of it, have you?). To keep from being slowly and torturously bored to death by her day job, she turned to fiction as means of escape-reading it, writing it, and editing it.
CONTRIBUTOR BIOS:Wendy Sparrow 's first forays into fiction earned her time-outs, punishment, and "how many times have I told you the Boy Who Cried Wolf story?" But, she persevered. She's stubborn like that. Now, all her stories have a happily ever after and the lies are sexier and more elaborate. Sometimes, they even contain wolves. (Ha, mom! So there!) She's active in OCD and autism communities and writes on her blog to support awareness in both. If she's not writing or wrangling kids, she's on Twitter, @WendySparrow, where she'll chat with anyone about anything.
From New Mexico to Nebraska to New York to Indiana to Qatar to Washington D.C., , and others, as well as at Jeremiah Murphy has lived everywhere. And he writes a lot. His work can be found in anthologies such as Fae Fatales , The Dark Lane Anthology, From the Corner of Your Eye , http://www.jrmhmurphy.com.
Charlotte M. Ray splits her time between all kinds of gaming, reading and being a wife. Oh, and writing down all those stories that keep plopping up in her mind and won't leave her alone. She lives (physically) in Finland with her husband and their computers, and (mentally) in whichever imaginary world she is currently occupied with.
Marie Piper writes steamy western historical romance, so getting her geek on in Covalent Bonds has been a delight. Her trilogy, Fires of Cricket Bend , is being published by Limitless Publishing, and her short stories have appeared in collections from LoveSlave, House of Erotica, Torquere Press, NineStar Press, and Coming Together. Maidens & Monsters , Marie's 5-novella old west mystery girl squad serial, is out now. For more information, visit mariepiper.com or @mariepiperbooks

Tellulah Darling- YA and New Adult romantic comedy author because her first kiss sucked and she's compensating.
- Firm believer that some of the best stories happen when love meets comedy and awkwardness ensues.
Both a hopeless romantic and total cynic, Tellulah Darling is all about the happily-ever-after, with a huge dose of hilarity along the way. Her romcoms come in a variety of heat levels and flavors; straight up romantic comedy, shaken with Greek mythology or stirred with urban fantasy.
