You know what I hate. You write your review and BAM, it is gone. *Pulls hair out* I wrote this epic review and it is GONE! Now, I am going to have to start ALL OVER!Okay, since I am ranting, let's start this review with my mini rant about one particularly scene in the story. Rabies. *sighs* I...
Ed Maurer and Laurie Parker are trying to figure out what is the next phase of their life after their life dreams were brought to a halt.Ed Maurer was a semi-pro football player but neck injury ended his football aspirations. Laurie Parker dreamed of being the next Mikhail Baryshnikov until a sca...
I can totally relate to the two major plot points of this novel. First, I come from a huge Catholic family (though Spanish/Australian, and not Italian). So I can understand how someone could make it into his forties without consciously realizing he's gay.Second, I have had personal interaction wi...
This was a great 'I loved to used' story. The d/s aspects of this relationship was seriously hot. I also liked how when he got his punishments he enjoyed the release they brought but he wasn't a masochist so he didn't get off on the pain alone, which I thought was pretty realistic.This was an ov...
I liked this book. I did not love this book, however. I really enjoy Heidi Cullinan as an author, her Special Delivery series is the BOMB! I enjoyed the sex in her other series better because it was laid out in detail. She included emotions with her love scenes in Special Delivery; she did not in...
Just fell short of perfection to me. Whilst I loved the first half of it, the second half was rife of unnecessary banter and tedious digressions i.e. if I wanted to read Mansfield Park or watch Tangled, I would have. Kelly was a bit OTT in the schmaltz factor that he leaned on ridiculous. Conside...
I feel this story was a solid 4 star work of fiction!!! I have been a fan of historical romance for decades and I am pleased to say that even though some of the subject matter was difficult to push through...I was very impressed with the writing and the story itself!!! Wes/Albert & Michael both...
I absolutely adored Love Lessons and dived into book #2 immediately. I was so disappointed though. This book was all over the place and had so many plot threads going on that it could have been 5 different books. It also felt like a fairytale soap opera. While that Disney theme was adorable in LL...
I enjoyed this third book in the series, but not quite as much as the previous two. The MCs were great, and it was wonderful revisiting the MCs from books one and two. I liked the storyline and was not at all put off by the stronger BDSM content; so, I'm not quite sure why I prefer the first two....
This was as close to perfect a read becomes to me. I instantly fell in love with both main characters, Arthur and Gabriel, and along the way I fell in love with the majority of the supporting cast as well, including Arthur's meddling mother Corinna Anderson, his nephew Thomas and sister. Both Art...
This was just too wholesome for Randy. I guess I expected this to be somewhere along the kinkfest that is Hooch & Cake. And Crabtree - I didn't actually picture him as someone who's somewhat a looker but him and Randy just makes me cringe - he reminded me of that Russian boss in 2012 for some wei...
I didn`t like Randy telling Emma about Sam`s sex life and I would have preferred the wedding night without Randy and with more tenderness between Mitch and Sam.But most of all I was disappointed that Mitch broke his no-kissing rule and considered to break it in the future too. That ruined the sto...
This was a very interesting read. It is not your typical m/m romance novel. I was very surprised to see that most of the conflict in this novel revolved around self-discovery and overcoming character flaws. This book was a lot more introspective and deep than I was expecting but it was still a...
This compact, chilling, and wonderful ghost story focuses on a paranormal investigator named Michael Clarke who's trying his best to free the energy of a ghost from an old house in Missouri. A psychic has given him a clue that leads him to odd job man, Pete Eason. Pete doesn't know it yet, but he...
The wand focuses power and can create the spark of life needed for a spell. A wand is a tool, but it is also a weapon. Timothy had lost Charles. He sagged against the wall of a house and sank down to the ground between two garbage cans as he tried to catch his breath. Ten seconds. He had b...
Johann was angry, and Conny had no idea how to make him happy again. Johann was a different kind of angry than Conny was accustomed to in a man, all stoic and frowning, without any rantings or accusations, only terse exchanges and tight-lipped assurances he was well, thank...
He sat up with a groan, grimacing at the taste in his mouth and frowning at his feet, which were bare and picking up a significant draft. Making a mental note to check Gabriel’s weather stripping later, he rose and padded to Gabriel’s room to wake him up. When he opened th...
Now that he’d tossed a buoy to a drowning victim, he needed to get them both to shore. Lewis’s hazel eyes brimmed with tears, but not one of them fell. The cords in his neck throbbed with tension, and the veins of his arms bulged as if the beet bucket had been laced with s...
Arthur replied immediately, said it was fine and offered to host. But when Marcus responded, he said he wanted to host because they wanted to show off the new house, which Paul knew was Marcus believing Frankie wanted to show off. Arthur complained he had plenty to show off too, because they’d se...
he’d told Ethan as they debriefed in the bar when Randy had called a halt to their part in the game at 2:00 a.m. “A lot of green players do that, but you’re better than most green players, so stop. If your hand is bad, you fold. I know, sometimes you fold and then find out you would have had a da...
They went from near-nuclear war to careful allies in the span of one afternoon. Sure, they still fought, but how they fought was different. It reminded me more of the way Emmet was with Althea, fighting with an understanding beneath it. David, I’d already learned, loved a good argument, so he enj...
He tried his only hope for an out, though, calling Rosa to see if she needed any more help getting ready for the party.She didn’t, because Noah had been over when El had been playing lovey-dovey with Paul, and he hadn’t just finished the cleaning, he’d appeared with a brand-new patio set. Complet...
Sam told himself this, but as he sat frozen in his seat, watching Mitch’s rigid jaw, it was a hard line to buy. Sam breathed shallowly, as if to keep from being noticed by too much movement. After a minute or so, his hand hurt, and he realized this was because he held the seat belt strap so tight...
