Novels
Welcome to the bookshelf!
Whether you found me as Evie Drae or discovered me anew as Stevie Rae Diehl, all my stories live here. From spicy contemporary romance to galaxy-spanning love stories, get ready to fall hard and swoon often.
In a galaxy ruled by blood, love is the fiercest rebellion.
The Aekosi were once the galaxy’s most revered race—mystic warriors of light and blood, bonded by soul and sacred rite. But that was before the war. Before their world burned. Before their people were enslaved.
Now scattered across the stars, the surviving free Aekosi hide in the shadows or live beneath the cruel boot of the Sovereign elite. Their sacred bonds are forbidden. Their blood is currency. And their freedom? A dangerous dream.
But in the ashes of a shattered empire, six fated couples will rise—bound by passion, defiance, and a love that refuses to be silenced. Together, they’ll challenge the system that broke them. They’ll reclaim what was stolen. And they’ll show the galaxy that even in its darkest corners… love still burns.
Epic sci-fi. Soul-deep romance. High heat. Higher stakes.
The revolution begins with Ashes of Desire.
Their love was forbidden—but fate doesn’t play by the rules, and neither did their hearts.
Briette Nolvareth was never meant to survive. Born into the Gritfolk slums—the lowest class in the Galactic Commons—she’s scraped and clawed her way through a system built to keep her down. Now, after years of fighting to claim a life worth living, she’s carved out a safe haven as a bartender at a cozy Gritfolk café-bar, finally able to breathe. Finally free… or so she thinks.
Dr. Eryndor Vaelric is a prince in everything but name. Raised by a royal family in hiding, he’s one of the last free Aekosi—a race of immortal beings hunted, enslaved, and drained for their regenerative blood after the Sundering War nearly five centuries ago. Disguised and disciplined, Eryndor hides in plain sight, working as a trauma surgeon in the outer districts where the need is greatest and the rules easiest to bend.
They’re from different worlds. Literally.
Their love? Forbidden.
But when fate brings them together, neither can deny the pull—soul-deep, dangerous, and utterly consuming.
In a galaxy built on blood and control, falling in love isn’t just risky—it’s lethal. When an attack on Briette threatens to rip them apart, the two are forced to run. But even lightyears from everything they’ve known, shadows lurk. The kind that don’t just threaten lives—but hearts, hopes, and the fragile threads of love that bind them.
To survive, they’ll have to defy the system.
To find peace, they’ll have to outrun the past.
And to claim the future they deserve… they’ll have to fight for it.
Before there were galaxies, there were gay love stories—and they’re still bringing the heat. Check out my MM romance books as Evie Drae!
Classic fairy tales. Queered, heated, and set loose in Vegas.
Las Vegas is a city of glittering lights, shadowy corners, and second chances—where fate rolls the dice and love always finds a way. In this steamy queer romance series, classic fairy tales get a contemporary makeover, complete with sizzling chemistry, unexpected twists, and the kind of happily ever afters that don’t play by the rules.
Each book in the Once Upon a Vegas Night series is a standalone retelling that reimagines beloved stories through a modern, LGBTQ+ lens—set against the backdrop of Sin City’s electric pulse.
Whether it’s an MMA fighter with something to prove, a “Prince of Pop” craving something real, or an Olympic swimmer caught in the current of first love, these heroes are fierce, flawed, and totally unforgettable.
These aren’t your childhood fairy tales—they’ve come out, turned up the heat, and made Vegas their playground.
Champion MMA fighter Adam Littrell is preparing for the biggest fight of his career. If he wins, his record-breaking title reign will remain unbroken. If he loses, he’s on the fast track for retirement. But when nerdy and awkward Beauregard Wilkins stumbles through his front door, staying focused on the task at hand becomes a struggle.
After taking over as his little sister’s legal guardian when their parents passed away, Bo is used to working hard to take care of his family. And now that Lulu is off at the expensive college of her dreams, he can’t afford to lose the generous salary his new position as Adam’s live-in personal assistant offers. However, as chemistry sizzles beneath the guise of an unexpected friendship, Bo discovers his new boss hardly lives up to his beastly reputation.
At the end of the day, Adam always thought the most significant fight of his life would be a physical one. But when things take an unexpected turn, he realizes his greatest prize can’t be won in the octagon.

As the son of music industry royalty and a famous rock star in his own right, Henry “Cinder” Cinderford has spent his life on the road. Craving stability, he signs on to do a special limited engagement in Las Vegas and plans to spend the next six months discovering the meaning of home.
After losing his mom at a young age, Ellis Tremaine survived a childhood with an abusive stepfather who took out his anger on the son he never wanted. Nearly two decades later, Ellis continues to struggle against the emotional manipulations of his family, even in his career. But when he meets none other than the Prince of Pop himself, things start to change.
From attraction to friendship to something so much more, Ellis and Cinder become the celebrity ‘ship known as “Cinderellis.” But when reality threatens their storybook romance, all they can do is hope there really is a happily ever after for every once upon a time.
Love, danger, and submission—this isn’t just a romance. It’s survival.
They were never supposed to meet.
One night was all it was meant to be—one transaction, one release. But when retired baseball star Landon Jenks opens the door to a scarred, sharp-witted escort with walls taller than the stadiums he used to play in, the rules change in a heartbeat.
What begins as a paid encounter turns into a lifeline.
Haunted by a past he can’t outrun, Toby Carmichael has learned to survive on his own terms. But Landon’s gentleness, his need, and the unshakable truth in his eyes unravel every rule Toby’s ever made to protect himself.
Across three books, one explosive, gut-wrenching journey unfolds.
From tentative touches to brutal truths, from private scars to public danger, Landon and Toby will fight for something neither of them ever believed they deserved—a love that owns them. Heart. Body. And soul.

Trapped in the sticky fine print of an ironclad contract that forbids him from revealing his very-much-single status until the season finale of his reality show airs, retired four-time Golden Glove-winning shortstop for the Chicago Cubs Landon Jenks is lonely, heartbroken, and fraught with need for simple human contact. At the suggestion of a friend, he calls an elite male escort service that caters to the rich and desperate. With discretion guaranteed and no fantasy off limits as long as the bill gets paid, Landon doesn’t know what to expect.
Accustomed to servicing his often less than savory clients at more upscale locales, twenty-six-year-old Toby Carmichael is surprised when his handler sends him to a rundown motel off I-55. But ‘surprise’ doesn’t come close to describing the shock that rocks his system when a delightful stuttering mess covered in tattoos and nearly ten years his senior sweeps Toby off his feet—and right into bed.
For the first time since Toby fell into the life of prostitution, he breaks his most staunchly protected rule and kisses a john. But that kiss—at first only meant to calm Landon’s nerves and quell the itch of Toby’s curiosity—sparks a desire that has nothing to do with the money that changed hands and everything to do with genuine chemistry, attraction, and the faintest beginnings of something so much more.
But when Toby’s dark past and equally troubled present make it impossible for him to see a future with Landon, his truth comes to light. Horrified and helpless but determined to save Toby at all costs, Landon buys them time to think—by buying Toby’s time. Facing monsters of all shapes and sizes, Toby and Landon must overcome their personal demons before they can even think about saving each other.
