September Slowburn

September Slowburn

N. Slater • September 2026

Hey, you beautiful chaos gremlins.

It’s been a minute since the last newsletter and for that I apologize. It’s been crazy between work and writing and trying to figure out a few things for the future. The first thing I realized is that shiny things make me happy. New books make me happy and sharing all of the weird ass ideas in my head make me feel all warm and cuddly inside.

Unfortunately, it’s an impossible business model even as much as I try to pretend it isn’t.

First things first — I’m not going anywhere but you might see a few more moving release dates and last minute tweaks to the schedule so that I can give myself a bit of room to breathe.

The goal is that August 2028–September 2028 will be a rest month and everything else leading up to that will be slowly winding down.

All the books are still coming. All the crazy is still going to be here. I’m just going to be spending a little more time with me, my dogs, and family.

TLDR: Author Spotlights (Enslaved, An Unexpected Gift and Seventy-One, Subliminal Bonds Duet, Unspoken Rules); This is my taboo era — All Knotted Up just dropped; Along for the Ride jump in starts Sept 18; 2026 signings; Full 2027 signing schedule; Release schedule link!

Want to know what’s planned but not yet on preorder?

Don’t Miss the Drop

For Your Information

I’m slowly moving into more paranormal (monster), dark, and contemporary themes. I’ll still be writing omegaverse but that will be thinning out through the rest of the year and 2027. Think more monsters, more darkness, more chaos outside the verse — but still all the spice you know and love.

Spotlights

go add these to your TBR immediately

Enslaved by Cheyenne Browning

Enslaved — Cheyenne Browning

A dark why-choose paranormal romance with FFMM dynamics, possessive love, power struggles, and a bond that refuses to be broken. If you like your paranormal with teeth, this one’s for you.

An Unexpected Gift and Seventy-One by Susan Horsnell

An Unexpected Gift and Seventy-One — Susan Horsnell

Two MM romance short stories. Best friends, secrets, heartbreak, and reunions — one set on a cattle property in Queensland where eleven years of silence shatters when Corey walks back into Mason’s life, and the other following two men who’ve done everything together since high school. Sweet, emotional, and worth your time.

Subliminal Bonds Duet by Y.V. Larson

Subliminal Bonds Duet — Y.V. Larson

A dark why-choose omegaverse duet that is MMMF+, spicy, emotional, angsty, and sprinkled with enemies-to-lovers. A feral omega who refuses to submit to anyone who isn’t her pack, captivity, trauma, and bonds that might be the only thing keeping everyone alive — or tearing them apart. This one will wreck you in the best way.

Unspoken Rules by Penny Fox

Unspoken Rules — Penny Fox

An MM forbidden romance. Bryson shouldn’t want Cole — he’s his best friend’s father. But one night changes everything and now neither of them can stay away. Secrets, tension, and the kind of falling that ruins everything. Or saves it.

This Is My Taboo Era

no apologies

All Knotted Up

All Knotted Up — Just Dropped!

I just dropped a taboo novelette and I’m fully in this era now. If you’re into the forbidden, the filthy, and the things you’re not supposed to want — welcome home.

The Cestverse

Along for the Ride

new jump in starts September 18th

Along for the Ride

Read It As I Write It

Along for the Ride is exactly what it sounds like — you’re not buying a finished book. You’re buying a seat while it gets written. Every month you’ll get 2–3 new chapters, lightly edited and fresh off the page, delivered straight to your BookFunnel library. No waiting for release day. You’ll watch this thing take shape in real time, chaos and all.

When the last chapter lands, you get the finished, fully edited ebook plus a discount code for the paperback. You also get a private Discord channel, early cover and art reveals, and your name in the acknowledgments.

Current offerings:

🐺 In Darkness We Bleed — a paranormal wolf x vampire MMFM romance

🥚 Nested — an FFMFF monster eggpreg romance

🏫 Pretty Little Trophy — a dark MMFM academy romance

First files delivered September 18th. Are you ready?
