Overview: Julia McBryant lives in the prettiest city in the whole world with her roving nebula of German Shepherds.

Genre: Romance, MM
Christmas Cousins: Quinn, Ellis, and Amory (#3): The Rutledge family Christmas always sucks, but Quinn has his beloved cousins, Delia and Baylor: all three same-age, look-alike blond partners in crime who always have each other’s backs, whether it’s saving Baylor from Grandfather’s ire or telling off the roving gang of brats. Baylor once chopped off her hair to make Quinn feel better. Delia punched people in the face for him. Quinn picked Delia up from parties at 3 am. They’re tight as tight can be.
Quinn, Ellis, and Amory are all settled in for the Hallmark family Christmas before the boys leave for the Culliver twins’ three-day Christmas party on Tybee — Quinn’s cousin Baylor in tow, and Delia soon to meet them. Ellis only tells his boys one thing: BEHAVE WHILE YOU’RE GONE.
The beach house looks like pipe bomb of tinsel and fake snow exploded. The hot tub has multi-colored blinker bulbs strung up and set to disco. As the liquor passes from hand-to-hand, Delia and Baylor turn from Quinn’s staunchest allies to terrible teases who embarrass him at every turn. As Quinn’s misery reaches a Scrooge-ish rock-bottom, something has to give. Christmas is about family. But what happens when your family sucks?
A holiday story about the power of family and the special bonds between the people who grow up together, Christmas Cousins shows the real tangles, trouble, and most of all, the special love that binds cousins together.
Southern Scandal’s novella Christmas Cousins tells the story of the same party detailed in Southern Seduction’s What Christmas Means and Low Country Lovers’s Learning to Love Christmas. All three novellas should be read in the context of their series, but differ enough in details and perspective to be read together.
Remember All the Things You Don’t Want to Forget: The Prequels: Quinn, Ellis, and Amory (#4): Ellis, Quinn, and Amory have a happy daddy-boy-boy relationship. It took them a long time to get there — and they’re still healing from their journeys. Quinn used sex to cover up his deep well of loneliness. Ellis had lost himself. Amory had his home and his god ripped away.
This collection of short, impressionistic vignettes tells the story of how they got there. Told in McBryant’s lyrical, almost dream-like prose, Remember All the Things You Don’t Want to Forget shows how small events in Quinn, Ellis, and Amory’s lives — and sometimes not-so-small-events — shaped them, and brought them, almost inevitably, to each other.
These short snippets show their lives before they came together, and offer a glimpse of how the three fit together. Rather than short stories, these are small moments in the lives of three people who came to love one another — three people who were waiting for each other all along.
Full of the lyrical prose and attention to detail you expect from McBryant, these character studies offer a different perspective into Quinn, Ellis, and Amory in many events that are hinted at, but never detailed, in other Southern Scandal books.
Note that while Christmas Cousins, Southern Scandal #3, is still on preorder, this book contains no spoilers for it, and they can be read out of order.
