Out Now_Drift, Don't Book 8
I'm so late doing this, as Drift was out a few days ago, but... Yay! Drift, book 8 in the Award-winning Don’t series, is finally -- alive!!!
It's taken a while, but it's perfect timing as the Don't... lads are up for one hell of a dark... explosive Christmas!!! *does exceedingly dark romance dance*
Usual very dark triggers apply, and I mean if it’s out there this one has it, and then some!

question:
Hi Gail! Thank you for asking. :) I'm on the last few chapters now! Drift's taking a little longer because it's two books in one: longer than Fractured, so a lot is coming your way from the lads. :) It picks after Natural-Born Cullers, too,

"Twisted Tale – Slay Bells Ring by Jack L. Pyke
Okay, Jack L. Pyke has a, uh, pretty twisted imagination. Her stories scare the crap out of me in their psychological intensity. This one had so many twists that I struggled to keep up. But I got the gist" Read more of this review » |

2 words... Gray Matter? Any comments? lol
Jack wrote: "Thank you for the add, April! :)"thanks for accepting. loved book 1 of the Don't... series & i heard good things about book 2. i'm hoping to start on Antidote tonight.
Ooooh! Edible rope, I'm liking that ...Saves having to sharpen your false teeth!!!! Hahaha! (No I haven't got any of those ...yet!..honest!)
Hi Jack :) Thx for accepting. I'm part of the Sinfully Sexy M/M team and Macky and Monique FINALLY convinced me to start reading your Don't. What can I say? I'm already hooked, it's the totally mind fuck, brilliant done! Now I can't wait to read Lynn's third Deliver Us book and your Antidote.
LMAO! Okay its sorted then.. You start at the bottom, I'll take the top..we take our time, meet in the middle, exchange a few pleasantries. You know, like I'll give you shoe lace untying tips...you tell me all the top secret stuff about what you and Lynn have planned next.. That sort of stuff, lol... and then we'll get back to the nitty gritty with 'Rope Boy!' What do you think? Its a plan.... ;)
LOL! Thanks for friending Jack.. How do you fancy unwrapping that 'present' together? Which part do you want to start..top or bottom? He he... We might just have to use our teeth to undo those knots... ;)
hey, are you planning to snag one of the m/m romance group prompts?! :D I'd love to read something else you've written... :)
Thank you so much for the lovely Christmas message on my profile :) I am so sorry this is a late reply. I hope you had a lovely Christmas with your family and are having a relaxing boxing day :) I wish you every success with Antidote I cannot wait to read it soon. Lots of love xx
What's the one thing I'm thankful I
don't
have in common with Santa:
Thank you for accepting! now now, go back to work on Don't...#2:)JUst kidding, but seriously, I need more.
I hope you're working on another book.. *poked around your website*... I still think of 'Don't...' pretty frequently and can't wait to see what you come up with next time.
Jack, thanks for the friendvite. Looking forward to chatting and perusing your reads.
Thanks for the friend request! We're gonna be awesome friends, I can tell ;)

Hi Jack, it's great friending you on GR and I look forward to chatting books with you. I just finished Don't and absolutely loved it. I was excited to see on your blog that you are working on a sequel and also a collaboration with Lynn Kelling! I will be keeping an eye out for release dates!
I'm super glad you invited me, thanks Jack. Your writing has completely captivated me. I'm on pins and needles for more :)
Hi there. Thanks for friending me! It's nice seeing other AW folk on Goodreads. It looks like we're in a lot of the same groups ;-).
Thank you so much for the friend invite. I don't think you are a pathetic author. I think I have stars in my eyes that an author has added meAlthough I am slightly embarrassed by my pathetic review after you liked it
It is not that you are an author but that you are THE AUTHOR!!! I was thinking aggghhhh why didn't I do a better job of it! About my question with the friend request I was 'flagged' as in some lovely person on GR's thought I had inappropriate m/m pics posted on my profile so they pressed the FLAG button!!
What can I say I love ALL THINGS m/m! I don't see anything wrong with sharing my love and obsession (TMI I know)
a fellow Brit :) I really look forward to the next book in the series- the darker the better for me please
(sorry for the essay I get verbal diarrhoea on GR's and my sarcastic sense of humour also comes out- please forgive me I never mean to offend though)
You're welcome for the friend request! And I've got to stop looking at that Giff... :)On the sequel, I've handed the script over to the publishers. It's completed, it just needs to go through editing and production. I'm roughly saying a few months, but I've had no set date yet. As soon as I know, I'll post to let you know.
Thank you for asking! In the mean time, I'm looking forward to catching more of your reviews.
:)
Thanks for the friend request! And I figured the gif fit since Gray IS a sexy bastard ;). Any hints on when the next book will be out?
