It's that time of the week... time for an author to pop by with their latest release. Today I've got author Jacey Holbrand with some interesting facts about her male/male romance, The Gathering
The year is 2112, and the world
has changed…
Jake Landry is
interested in having some fun. He’s in Las Vegas, newly single and just off his
most recent tour of duty. In Vegas he has met up with his old friend Nicola
Goodheart, a scientist and inventor who studies portals, other worlds, and
strange beings. Jake has also met and become enamored with Alexander, a
gorgeous man with violet eyes. Jake goes with Nic on a portal finding mission,
and they all end up in Alexander’s alien world.
Recruiter
Alexander Bloodworth is interested in Jake for himself and in Nicola for
placement in a pleasure house on his home planet of Aurath. When he hears word
one of his people’s enemies are after Nicola and Jake, he goes to save them
both, even at the peril of losing his job.
Will they risk
their hopes and dreams—Alexander and Jake for a chance at love and Nicola for
her career—or will they falter and lose everything anyway?

10 for The Gathering by Jacey
Holbrand
Because
The Gathering starts off in a
futuristic Las Vegas, NV setting, I wanted to share some interesting factoids
about the area that tie into the story.
10. 1946: The Pink Flamingo opens, built by notorious mobster Bugsy
Siegel. It is the first luxury hotel on the Strip, It would become The Fabulous
Flamingo in 1947, The Flamingo Hilton in 1974, and Flamingo Las Vegas in 1999.1
9. Nevada State Route 375 is also known as
Extraterrestrial Highway. The highway was given the name in 1996. 2
8. Along the Extraterrestrial Highway
you'll find the Black Mailbox (though now it's actually white). It's a locked
box that's protected by a quarter-inch-thick bulletproof metal, located along
Tikaboo Valley off a dirt road (which leads to the restricted Area 51).
Allegedly, there are between two to three UFO sightings here a week!3
7. If you get hungry or need a place to
sleep for the night, pull over to the Little A'le'inn, a bar, restaurant and
motel. Here you can order the "Alien burger" and learn about Area 51. 3
6. Lake Mead – The massive body of water
was created in 1936 after the construction of the Hoover Dam on the Colorado
River.

5. Lake Mead hasn’t been officially
full—1,221 feet above sea level—since 1983.4
4. This year (2014), thanks to a wetland
rehabilitation project in Mexico, the Colorado briefly reached the Sea of
Cortez again for the first time since the El Niño floods of 1998. Before humans
started tampering with building massive dams on the Colorado, it did so every
year.
4
3. A decade ago, Lake Mead was home to
nine boat launch ramps and six marinas. Six ramps and three marinas remain open
today.5
2. People used to come to Las Vegas to
watch the nuclear testing that happened outside of the city limits. The
National Atomic Testing Museum is in Las Vegas.6
1. Although most people are completely
unaware of its existence, the UFO-Nukes Connection is now remarkably
well-documented. U.S. Air Force, FBI, and CIA files declassified via the
Freedom of Information Act establish a convincing, ongoing pattern of UFO
activity at American nuclear weapons sites extending back to December 1948.7
