EBOOK SPOTLIGHT: Over the Emerald Valley: MM Paranormal Fantasy Romance by Lee Colgin
Life as a concubine isn’t bad. Temaj has food, shelter, and every inch of his skin is draped in emeralds. What’s freedom worth when weighed against the luxury of the palace?
Solon’s dutiful life earned him the rank of army general. But when he’s sent on a diplomatic mission rather than into battle, he senses a lonely retirement.
Temaj is gifted to Solon, but the last person Solon wants in his bed is a slave sent to spy on him—even if he is a gorgeous, silver-tongued vixen.
Trouble brews when emeralds go missing. With only the clever concubine on his side, can Solon escape with his life, or are they destined to haunt the mines forever?
Over the Emerald Valley is full of snarky banter, dangerous secrets, steamy stolen moments and only one bed. A stand-alone novel with no spoilers, no cliffhangers, and always an HEA!

Needed.
Hoped for.
