The Rainbow Snippets group on Facebook asks its members to share six sentence snippets from their work each weekend (I'll beg forgiveness in advance for sometimes going over the sentence limit!). Check out the group's Facebook page to read all the snippets and add lots of great books to your TBR. You'll find all sorts of books with the common thread that the main character identifies as LGBTQ.
I'm switching over to snippets from To Love the Dragon King, the first book in my Dragons of Ivria series (I promise I'm working on book 2 and will have it out as soon as possible!). To Love the Dragon King is a dragon shifter fantasy romance in which Lysander, the king of Ivria, discovers the existence of a plot against him and his country. While searching for the conspirators, he encounters Sascha, a young man whose family has been using him as a bargaining chip in that same plot. Lysander is immediately fascinated by Sascha, but can he trust him? Can they trust each other, even as they become closer and danger closes in? This snippet comes from the very beginning of the book.

The high gray stone walls of Castle Grau were bleak against the slate-colored clouds blanketing the sky. Sascha shivered and huddled deeper into his fur-trimmed cloak, despite knowing the reaction hadn’t been entirely—or even mostly—caused by the raw chill in the air. His first sight of the place he would live for the next several years made him wish to be anywhere else.
But he couldn’t stop staring out the carriage window as they approached the building. He schooled his features carefully into the serene mask he’d practiced for long hours until he could hold onto it even if everything inside him quaked, as it did now. Deliberately forced his breathing to even out. Best to prepare himself when he was alone, Lord Jannik’s man of business having chosen to ride up with the driver the whole journey from Sascha’s family home where the man had retrieved him and turned over the contractual payment to his parents. It had made for a long and lonely trip—all day yesterday and overnight in the carriage—but Sascha wouldn’t have chosen the company of the other man anyway.
