Utterly flawed me. I thought it would be basically a re-telling of the story from the first book in the duet, “Unrequited”, but from West’s perspective. Wasn’t I wrong!

And if you have (ahem… yes I’m talking from personal experience…), this is the book for you.
Yes, it’s erotica. Yes, it’s the most explicit MM romance book I think that has been published (and I read A LOT) But it’s so much more than erotica andYes, it’s erotica. Yes, it’s the most explicit MM romance book I think that has been published (and I read A LOT) But it’s so much more than erotica and it’s NOT SMUT. There is a storyline, and the development of a beautiful relationship between Tad & Scott, as Tad’s eye’s are opened through Scott’s sensitive encouragement of his bisexual awakening.
The s3x is minutely detailed, and with foreplay & orgasm control m, as well as a variety of kinks heavily featured, this is super spicy. But the emotional connection between Scott & Tad makes this the perfect package....more

Lucky it never seems to be goodbye in Cara Dee’s universe, and we know there’s a spin-off series on the way soon.
Favourite parts that made me teary were the progress of the freed captive boys, particularly when they went from non-verbal to “Daddy” and even chatting to grumpy River. Seeing Darius & Gray from the Auctioned series (my absolute fave from Cara) And the reunion between Shae, River & Reece, with the usually stoic Tenley twins showing the depth of their love? *Chefs kiss* Gaaaah I wish it could have gone for much longer…...more

E.M.Lindsey is quickly becoming one of my favourite authors. You can always rely on finding a story that features an incredibly diverse cast, an MC with a disability that is represented authentically, and a love story that initially seems like it has no chance of succeeding but eventually is perfection.

I think she’s one of the most exciting & talented new authors of the last couple of years.

You probably haven’t heard of S.M.Landon. Stef is a new author, with this only being her 2nd book. It’s a gamble trying a new author, but if you want to FEEEEEL, you need to read this book. Stef has this incredible capacity to make you burn with emotion - heartache, rage, frustration, happiness, & deep love. The writing hooks your heart…

The third book from Charli Meadows, the 3rd book in The Loyal Boys series, and I’ve loved every one. Strong character development, a sweet loving boy with a damaged boy that learns they deserve love, combined with smoking hot first time s3xual experiences REALLY hit all the right notes.

You really get to see a truly satisfying HEA, with lots of future details. Sometimes, books focus too heavily on the angst & drama around a couple getting together, and you only get a brief glimpse of them being happy together. We wonder whether, in the long term, they would make it. In this, we get the opportunity to see Jake & Roe thrive together, achieve success together, blend their families together seamlessly, and start to grow old together. I couldn’t have wished for more. Seeing them enjoy the quiet moments as a couple, and truly as soulmates, after all the angst they went through when it seemed like they’d never be together… it’s just simply perfection.
