Hi, Elisa!
Add one vote for Love & Loyalty by Tere Michaels, thank you!
The rest I managed it on my own. And I suppose I'll cast my vote for Zero at The Bone under Mistery/Thriller. I don't catch exactly why is the book listed also here, although it's one of the more beautiful books I've ever read.
Ciao e grazie

The "Shadow of the Templar" series by M. Chandler (free on line, and also published by LuLu)
Here's a link to the web-site:
http://mooncalf.org/sott/
ETA: Oh, I just realised the books have to be published in the last year. I'm not sure exactly if these qualify now ... I'll have to check the dates.
Does each story need to be nominated separately? If so, then here are the story titles:
Morning Star
Double Down
With a Bullet
High Fidelity
Another ETA: I just re-read your rules:
For the 2009 LGBTQ Rainbow Awards I will consider ebooks or print books released between September 2008 (included) and August 2009 (Included). I'm not against the idea to consider also re-releases (maybe a previous ebook released in print, or viceversa; or a reprint of the same book from a different publisher).
I think these will qualify, as the earlier ones have been re-reprinted.

This is a really great idea you had for this competition for both writers and readers. Thank you for all the work it obviously takes to pull it off.
