robby riverton: Mail order bride
Now Available in Audiobook!
Being a fugitive in the old west shouldn't be this much fun.
The year is 1860. Robby Riverton is a rising star on the New York stage. But he witnesses a murder by a famous crime boss and is forced to go on the run--all the way to Santa Fe. When he still hasn't ditched his pursuers, he disguises himself as a mail order bride he meets on the wagon train. Caught between gangsters that want to kill him, and the crazy, uncouth family of his "intended", Robby's only ally is a lazy sheriff who sees exactly who Robby is -- and can't resist him.
Trace Crabtree took the job as sheriff of Flat Bottom because there was never a thing going on. And then Robby Riverton showed up. Disguised as a woman. And betrothed to Trace’s brother. If that wasn’t complication enough, Trace had to find the man as appealing as blueberry pie. He urges Robby to stay undercover until the danger has passed. But a few weeks of having Robby-Rowena at the ranch, and the Crabtree family will never be the same again.
Damn, what a kerfuffle. If only Trace can get rid of the fugitive while hanging on to his own stupid heart.

What people are saying about this book:
"I loved the way Shaw performs the dialogue and brings the locales and settings to life. This listen is a perfect example of how an audiobook can absolutely feel like a complete experience." - audiobook review on Gay Book Reviews
"It's Eli Easton at her best imho, hilariously funny at times, tinted with a touch of pathos, rip-roaring adventure and a good old fashioned romance." - Cadiva on Goodreads
"This is funny, sweet, sexy, serious, dramatic, more funny, and I loved every minute of it." - bestselling author RJ Scott
"I'm so glad Eli Easton decided to write this! Robby Riverton: Mail Order Bride is clever, fun, funny, sexy, and suspenseful." - Belen, Gay Book Reviews
"I wasn’t entirely sure what I was in for when I picked up this book, but Eli Easton hasn’t let me down yet, so I dove right in. Robby Riverton: Mail Order Bride was a sweet, funny, sassy, emotional gem of a book that I didn’t want to put down." - OMG Reads
"Robby and Trace had great chemistry and were hot together. ... this book was hilarious, with a witty and clever plot that weaves humor with the imminent danger of Robby being found by the men who were trying to silence him and from the Crabtree family finding out that he wasn't Ms. Fairchild. " - Bayou Book Junkie
"First, let me tell you how psyched I was for this. So psyched! Because Eli is one of my favs, this looks hysterical and one of my fav f/m tropes is the “mail order bride/forced marriage” scenarios. Second, this surpassed my expectations by also being ridiculously touching." -- Open Skye Book Reviews
the lion and the crow
In medieval England, duty is everything, personal honor is more valued than life itself, and homosexuality is not tolerated by the church or society.
Sir Christian Brandon was raised in a household where he was hated for his unusual beauty and for his parentage. Being smaller than his six brutish half-brothers, he learned to survive by using his wits and his gift for strategy, earning him the nickname the Crow.
Sir William Corbett, a large and fierce warrior known as the Lion, has pushed his unnatural desires down all his life. He’s determined to live up to his own ideal of a gallant knight. When he takes up a quest to rescue his sister from her abusive lord of a husband, he’s forced to enlist the help of Sir Christian. It’s a partnership that will test every strand of his moral fiber, and, eventually, his understanding of the meaning of duty, honor, and love.

“Eli Easton not only gave a convincing, seemingly historically correct story packed full of adventure, but she deftly wove a sensual love story right into the heart of it.” - The Novel Approach
“…the journey William and Christian take together, with the sexual tension hanging between, them is great because we do see these characters change.” - MM Good Book Reviews
