Features stories from-
Crea Reitan
Kady Monroe
Kelly Lord
Lizzie James
Raven B. Stone

••••

REVIEW->There are trigger warnings throughout this book, so I’d read the warnings before grabbing the book.

There is also taboo subjects (but I personally didn’t see them!)

I do love an anthology, it gives you a chance to read new authors. I grabbed it as it has my favourite author in it (Crea Reitan) her book “I have sinned” was definitely my favourite in the anthology.

Some were a good size novella, one was a little short, but it got its message across.

It’s definitely made me want to look at the rest of the authors to see their writing.

Do a quick review of each book ….

.
____

For I have Sinned Crea Reitan

It’s about a priest falling in love, he’s fighting his feelings and the church. They aren’t big on homosexual relationships.

Both Zaiden and Ellsworth were likeable and I found myself hoping they would be together. But it’s not an easy journey. And there is a few heartbreaking moments!

It’s almost an instalove (but it’s a novella, so it’s going to be quick ?)

_________

When Opposites Collide by Kady Monroe

This novella is based in a college, and the MC, hasn’t come out yet (in fact he has a girlfriend!)

I liked this one as well, although again a short story it did feel a little rushed! But once the MC decided he was going to love who he wanted to, there was no stopping him ? I’d love to see a series with the rest of the friends who supported both the main characters as they all seemed like a pretty great butch of characters.

_____

My Strength, my Weakness by Kelly Lord

I’d say this is my second favourite in the anthology.

Griffin and Kendall have an office romance with a side of kink ?

I loved Ken, so full of life and colour, and Griffin definitely needs that in his life.

What starts out as flirting soon turns into more…. But Griffin has a life already mapped out! Can he give the love of his life up?

_________

Dangerous Elysium by S. K. Graves

A dark college romance. Stalking and obsessive thoughts and actions!

The twist comes where is not the jock who is the stalker ?

This was the shortest story in the book, and just as I’m getting into it, it finishes!! I’d definitely buy it if it ever became a full novel.

Caspian and Beaufort were were great characters, and I’d love best friend to Caspian to get a book.

___________

Unbreakable by Lizzie James

Tyler and Damon are together, they just haven’t told their families.

Firemen and policemen ? I love a story with uniforms, I also like established couples. And this one had both.

It basically told a story about how a couple went about telling family and work they were together. Simple idea, but a whole barrel of emotions.

___________

Shatter Me by Raven B. Stone

Without giving too much away Griffin and Maxim come together after a hacker steals money from a company!

I’d definitely says it’s more of a sweet romance feel to this office romance.

There is a little revenge and a twist. Great characters and a storyline that flows really well. Although it did seem a little rushed (like the author forgot it was a novella! ??‍♀️)

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 7, 2023

The heart is a cruel master.

After the fallout between me, my brother, and Simon, I find myself either wallowing in a black pit of depression or lashing out with vicious rage. Technically, Simon still lives in the condo the three of us bought together, but ever since our relationship imploded months ago, I’ve barely seen him.

His absence is loud and it feels like a knife through my heart.

I miss dancing with him. I miss having him sandwiched between my brother and I at night. I miss the soft brush of his lips against mine, just because. I miss him.

A newly single co-worker strikes a bargain. All he wants is someone to wreck his body while I get to let out my anger. It’s a win-win….

Except I’ve still lost.

Once, the only future I saw was with Simon, but I don’t see a future at all anymore.

Because all I have left is a broken heart and no one to pick up the pieces.

••••••••

REVIEW: After reading book one (For your Time) I really didn’t like twins Damon and Declan. They weren’t very nice to Simon, made his life miserable, and in my opinion caused Simon to leave and not return messages or phone calls.

I didn’t like the dynamics between the three, I felt it was just wrong. But that’s just my opinion.

Damon is still in love with his best friend, he doesn’t ever see that changing. But he won’t get to see him if him and his twin don’t change their way of thinking!

Sage is a fitness and nutrition professional in the same gym Damon works in. He’s had a crush on Damon for a while now, but has never had the never to approach him!

It’s starts with Sage proposing a casual relationship (just s£x!) to Damon, and even though both know it’s going to end up in disaster (Damon knows he’s going to break Sage’s heart) they approach each other with caution…..

It took till about chapter 12, for me to forgive Damon and for said character to pull his head out from his a$$ and see what a wonderful man he had in Sage. Once he came to that conclusion (after almost losing him!) he couldn’t hold back his love, he wanted Sage to be his and his alone ?

Additional characters were all needed in this book, including the brainwashed ex girlfriend and Sage’s horrible mother! She was a vile individual and I was glad when Damon evicted her from Sage’s life. I loved catching up with Simon and ? Didn’t see Vulcan in this book (sadly) but we did find out who Declan falls for ?

I want to see Declan’s side of the story now (even though we get a glimpse at the end of this book ?) I want to read his side immediately ?

And I’m going to admit I was wrong, I’m going to eat humble lie and beg forgiveness from both the twins and the author. I was ready to hate the book, and all the characters in it (I’m still in love with book one)

I ended up loving this book (book one still my favourite)

There a lot of triggers in this book, including a taboo subject that a few readers might find hard (and I have a feeling it might evolve in book 3 ??‍♀️)

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date August 17, 2023

The best time to find yourself is before you hit rock bottom.

My mom died when I was ten, taking my happy family life with her. And since my dad’s only useful enough to drain a bottle, I’ve learned to live with nothing, except the love and generosity of my best friends.

My relationship with twins Damon and Declan has always been close. Too close according to what society has deemed appropriate between guy friends. But that’s never stopped our hugging and cuddling—in public or private. My best friends know I didn’t receive affection from home, so they never let me go without it.

But at twenty-two, the guilt of taking handouts from my friends catches up with me. Filled with self-loathing, I decide it’s time to make a change.

Determined to pay my own way, I accept a strange proposition from my former professor. Suddenly, I find myself with a sugar daddy, and a whole lot of questions I’m not sure how to process.

The twins have always known they were gay—just like I’ve known I was straight. But now, I wonder if the love and affection I’ve always craved was for something else entirely.

•••••••

REVIEW: Again something different from one of my favourite authors. It has triggers, so I do advise reading them before opening. Because once you open you won’t put it down!

Simon just makes you want to cuddle and protect him, he also wants to make you want to take him away from a relationship that really isn’t doing him any favours! His relationship with his best friends (twins Declan and Damon) in my opinion was suffocating! They come across as controlling and possessive! They might have been friends forever, and their parents took Simon in when he lost his mother and his father just stopped caring! But that didn’t give them the right to take over his life! Simon had gotten so much love from his parents as a child, and when that got taken away, he was left open and vulnerable, and I think the twins at first were doing it from a good place, but as they grew older I think they hoped Simon would announce he was gay. And maybe the twins thought he would be theirs!!

But Simon only hooks up with girls, and even then it’s more as a function than a need ??‍♀️ And even a one night stand with a guy doesn’t really excite him! But the twins are furious! (Were they hoping to be his first gay experience?)

Quinlan is a teacher with a huge crush! Meeting Simon in his class last semester had a huge impact on him, but fraternising with a student is a big NO! He wouldn’t put his career on the line, but there was something about Simon that pushed all of Quin’s buttons. So when an opportunity arises, Quin is there to fill out a fantasy! But before he can ask Simon out on a date…. The twins descend and take him away!!!

Simon might like the attention and the love Declan and Damon give him, but he’s not happy with taking money from them (even though they constantly offer and sneak him money) and so when a debt comes in, Simon is going to pay it off himself….. the answer….

What comes next is an emotional rollercoaster of a ride. As an outsider you can see where this is going. But reading it makes you experience this ride. And let me tell you I did not put the book down. It pulls at your heartstrings, it will make you want to throw your kindle at the wall, and it has me throwing my hands up several times shouting “why would you do that?” ?

Can Simon explore his newfound sexuality (apparently he’s only gay for Quin!) without losing his two best friend? (Who are vile in some instances!) Will there be a time when Quin will have Simon all to himself? Or will he have to constantly vie for his lovers attention?

I did like the way Quin supported and cared for Simon. He gave him the tools to make his own decisions, their relationship although rocky at first, gathered strength.
Is it a HEA (happy ever after)? I don’t know. I know it’s a HFN (happy for now)

I’m hoping the next book in this trilogy has a few snippets of Simon and Quinlan. I’m not ready to let them go ❤️‍?

Do I want a HEA for the twins? ?

Oh…. And Vulcan! Yes that’s his real name (best friend to Quinlan) is absolutely adorable, I want a HEA for him, I’d love him as a friend, he sounds like the coolest guy alive ?he brought laughter and tears to this book. He was a great addition to the characters.

It’s another really well thought out and beautifully written book. The author is stretching her wings with different genres, and it’s another one that’s going to be a favourite of mine.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 27, 2023

Don’t go into the basement…

After finding themselves kidnapped by a hidden secret society that operates out of the basement of Sacred Tongue Academy (AKA Satan’s Touch), the witches barely managed to get away, taking a tortured demon along with them and landing in the middle of Crea’s new family’s living room. This was not what they’d hoped for during their last years of graduate school.

As they get ready to launch their next line of magical sex toys in their successful business venture, A Lick of Magic, the secret society continues to haunt the girls. Tempting them with glamor and wealth. Prestige. Extravagant promises of success. Trying to convince them that it was all a misunderstanding – they weren’t hurting the demon but helping him.

After all, witches don’t go missing at Satan’s Touch. This new society swears that they’ve been trying to find those who go missing. The girls are about to find out just what lies within the walls, whether they like it or not.

***

This is a LGBT+ story with content not intended for those under 18 years of age due to graphic scenes and situations.

•••••

REVIEW:This starts where the last book ends (so it would be prudent to read book one before book two)

This series revolves around a coven of witches who start a business selling toys. s£x toys? to be exact, and it’s a thriving business, all whilst trying to finish their schooling. Oh and don’t forget the men/demons and shifters who enter their lives and remain there. And a society that want them to join up!!

Each book is just a continuation of the previous book, points of view from everyone is mentioned (but you’ll get the hang of it pretty quick)but has lots of interaction with the coven. It’s also got an understory (a secret society want the girls to join them!) there is plenty of laughter in this book, we have drama also (a demon is rescued and healed within the coven) and we get plenty of spicy moments?

There is also a murder to solve. But obstacles are being thrown out, the girls will need their wits about them to work out who is doing this (my money is on the secret society ?) and after being kidnapped Crea, Sinclair, Elizabeth, Indie, and Devyn now have to be extra vigilant!!

I’m really enjoying this series, it’s written differently from other books. Although none of the books are really dedicated to one person, you do get a little more time with a female from the coven. Sinclair and her males are given this book, but it doesn’t stop other characters having chapters in this book.
I really like the secret society (although not really good guys, it’s more of dark and sinister, they are happy to sacrifice whom ever to gain power)

A fast paced read with action/adventure/murder and mystery. And lots of spicy moments ?

Cliffhanger alert!! It does end on a cliffhanger, but so did book one… something I need to just let happen ?

Need the next book to see who is left standing…..

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 6, 2023

Possessions. Toys. Breeders.

That’s how omegas and betas are kept in the city of Chaingate. Alphas rule the city, owning the other designations as if they were play things instead of people. Alphas are raised cruel, bloodthirsty, and harsh.

Alpha Nicolai tried to be like the others. He was accepted into one of the biggest alpha packs, one that owned twelve omegas. The alpha pack that ran the city. But try as he may, Nicolai couldn’t bring himself to possess an omega or mistreat a beta.

Having reached his limit trying to live up to the expectations placed on him, Nicolai ran in the middle of the night, taking two omegas with him – the omega that claims his heart and the one his omega loves. He knows that it’ll be a life on the road for them but he vowed to keep them safe. To fight for their freedom. It wasn’t long before they saw that the rest of the world wasn’t like Chaingate. And neither were other alphas.

But that doesn’t mean they’ve seen the last of the city they fled. Betas may disappear from Chaingate from time to time, but no one was going to look the other way when two omegas vanish in the night.

•••••

REVIEW:Ok, the first thing I’ve got to say is that, this is a hard hitting book. Trigger warnings for the first part of the book. This has to be one of the authors books that I’m glad I read the warnings.

But it’s also my second favourite book she’s written. Although I didn’t really connect with the three main characters!

An alpha who runs off with two omegas…..

Alpha Nicolai loves Ayri (who is an omega) but has had enough of the way he’s treated in the pack (chaingate treat their beta/omegas like property) he’s uncomfortable with the treatment of the omegas, so he’s had enough, he wants to leave with Ayri, but he knows that his omega has feelings for another omega Paradise, so he has to run away with both! It’s going to be risky, if caught it will be the omegas that will get punished!

It’s not necessary to read the previous books, it’s stands on its own without any problems.

I really liked how the suspense was kept up. They thought they would be discovered and returned at any moment…. I enjoyed how slowly Ayri and Paradise began to relax and trust (Paradise took longer) Nicolai.

And when they meet Leith, Briar and Sutton, it’s almost love at first sight for the trio. They see how damaged Nicolai, Ayri and Paradise are (Nicolai had been emotionally damaged whereas Ayri and Paradise had been emotionally and physically damaged!) so it’s a slow process to get them to trust Leith/Briar and Sutton, but these alphas are nothing but kind, gentle and persistent.

Does Nicolai’s old pack come looking for them? You’ll have to read and and find out ?

It does end on a HFN (happy for now) for this new pack, it’s going to take time for Ayri and Paradise to truly feel safe and loved.

If you like your books dark and a tad uncomfortable, then give this book a go. It’s really well written, and will take you on a journey that’s going to need tissues.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 25, 2023

A touch so intimate, a kiss so deep…

Egon Wolf is on a hockey scholarship but failing at everything else. Knowing he’s going to lose his ride if he doesn’t get his academic act together, he seeks out a tutor.

Rakesh Aahnu is a dual major and dangerous when bored. What he enjoys more than anything is the challenge of making straight men fall for him before walking away. Just because he can.

But both Egon and Rakesh are about to discover that life has a way of throwing you in the sin-bin when you least expect it.
And when faced with an unfamiliar play?

All you can do is shiver.

•••••

REVIEW: It’s just m/m in this book. And to be honest I loved it. This author can be relied upon to get our pulses racing with multiple partners and established groups. So I did wonder how only two bodies would fill the page. I need not of worried, Egon and Rakesh fill those pages just nicely thank you.

Egon Wolf is a hockey player with a problem! His grades are slipping! And if they fall any further he’s off the team and out of college (he’s on a scholarship) so he needs a tutor, luckily his hockey coach has a genius on hand to help him……

Rakesh Aahnu is teaching assistant in the same college who is also working on his own dissertation on atomic metric of an RNA for his P.h.D, getting his master’s in physics
(not to brag, but the man is a genius) he doesn’t do people, nor does he like to tutor (most of the students he tutored did not take him seriously!) but he owes his uncle a favour and reluctantly takes Egon on…….

Gay guy leads straight guy astray ? and that’s all Rake wants, (he finds the challenge of selecting a man and then conquering him, until the novelty wears off! But along the way feelings are involved (which is a foreign concept for Rake!) and this angers and scares Rake (he’s only looking for a little fun then he moves on to his next conquest.
Egon is also struggling with his feelings and thoughts about his tutor! He likes girls, he has a “sort” of girlfriend. But the more time these two spend together the lines become blurred….

And when the inevitable happens, one heart will break, and the other heart shatters! And when that moment came….. I blubber like a baby! I wanted to scream at Rake for abandoning Egon, I know he was scared, but the way he left Egon was just low!!!!

Both characters have family issues, and it’s great that they are looked at and resolved.

The bedroom scenes are hot ? the humour between Egon and his teammates will have you chuckling. And the romantic moments…. Well they will just have you sighing like a Victorian maiden ?

So will Egon forgive Rakesh? Can Rakesh move past his fears of commitment? Will they get their happy ever after?

This book has been a little gem. And I hope we get to see more of the team in future books.

Loved Egon (my favourite character in the book) he was just a gem. Took me a little while to warm up to Rake, but once you see his caring/dominant side come out, I’m there grinning from ear to ear. Secondary characters had me wanting to read their stories, especially Uncle ? and BFF’s Rakkis and ?

I’m not a big sports fan, so the writer could have written anything, but with enough hockey terminology it stopped the book becoming boring.

There are a few subjects that might upset some readers, my advice is to check them out before reading this book.

A highly recommend read ??

ABOUT THE BOOK: It starts with an unsolicited d!ck pic that led me to the @rgy where I met five glorious men for a night of my life. Don’t worry, this doesn’t result in an accidental pregnancy. It’s a whole lot weirder than that.

By the next afternoon, I found some odd marks on my body. They’re very obviously not bruises. It starts with a red line spiraling around my left ankle that kinda looks like a snake. And then a gray-blue star on my hip. By the time the fourth mark shows up, I realize that each one is where one of them men had held me while we… you know.

I’m starting to feel like a freak show as they continue to cover my body as visible reminders of my salacious night. Now, I’m doing the unthinkable – tracking down my one night stand (all six of them) to figure out what the f*ck is going on.

All I can say is I’m not prepared for the world I’ve been marked into. But at least the men are hot and hung.

This is a polyamorous story with content not suitable for those under 18 years of age due to graphic scenes and situations.

••••••

REVIEW:  Could you imagine that a d!ck pic sent to you by mistake, could result in a night of passion/tattoos and more ? than you should shake a stick at? No? Well that’s what happened too Lux…..

Lux is a photographer, she loves nothing more than capturing beauty in all its glory. So when a group of d!ck pics come her way, curiosity and appreciation for the male form has her conversing with total strangers (I do love the text parts of the book, did make me chuckle) and then an invitation to a party to meet up has Lux in a quandary, does she stay at home, or have a night to remember?

Let’s just say, there is a lot of spicy moments, and some may say maybe too much?! If it’s not your thing, then either skip over or don’t bother grabbing the book. It didn’t bother me, it became part of the story. In parts it did get a little monotonous, but it’s all part of this book.

I did enjoy the interactions between Lux and the men she was with when they weren’t all going at it ?

I also enjoyed trying to work out the dynamics within the “brotherhood”, don’t panic, they aren’t blood related, they just refer to themselves as brothers. And the tattoos I hear you ask, well, after her spending the night with them all, mysterious shapes begin to appear on Lux’s body! And she’s not happy, not happy at all! She goes in search of Sunny/Apo/Sham/Rage/Atar/Gedd and Doom to enquire what the hell the markings are about….

But they are nowhere to be found! And a search is in order for Lux to have her questions answered.

There are a few twists that I sort of saw coming. There were also a few twists I didn’t see until I got slapped with them. There are definitely questions left unanswered. There is also m/m in this book (it’s not all about Lux ?) I liked that Lux seemed more mature in age than usual FMC, I also liked her no nonsense attitude, her confidence and her brain (she didn’t become a doormat after being with the guys)

Sunny/Apo/Sham/Rage/Atar/Gedd and Doom are all great monsters/men, this is end of days (and as the author tells you in the front of the book, she created this world, her word is law) each has his own personality, i’d personally like to have seen a little more development. Apparently this was suppose to be a one off book, but I’ve seen that there is now a second book. ??‍♀️

I can see why we needed possibly a second book, as there was a few questions that needed answers, but to be honest I think the author could have left it at book one (my opinion)

Do they all have a happy ending? Well to find out you’ll have to read the book.

EQUIPOISE
Brothers of Eschat 2
by Crea Reitan
Genre: adult, polyamorous, paranormal, romance
Release Date: May 4, 2023

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

ABOUT THE BOOK:  Fight or f*ck. That’s how the Eschats live.

What started with unsolicited d!ck pics that led to an @rgy has resulted in the end of the world. While I’m happy in my new life with the seven Brothers of Eschat, living in their underground world of Manaalanian, there are questions left unanswered. Questions that require a lot of d!ck-in time to contemplate, make plans, and decide to put forth an effort to solve.
But we don’t actually find the person responsible for setting the end in motion. He finds us. And he needs our help to set the world right because now there’s something else interfering in his endeavor to rebuild civilization by unaliving everything that is left.

I said it before and I’ll say it again; at least the men in this weird world are hot and hung. There are worse ways to spend my days. Like running from things that are set on killing me while my men fight for their very existence.
This is a polyamorous story with content not intended for those under 18 years of age due to graphic scenes and situations.

•••••

REVIEW:Book two has us almost where book one left us. I’d recommend reading book one first, but that’s just me. (But this book will make more sense if you read book one)

And without giving too much away from book one….

Lux is still with her hot posse, they are discovering that “end of days” is still going to happen! And they are all linked to the end of days prophecy! They are still trying to correct the damage Kulki created! But there is also something else in the dark that’s trying to bring on the end of days….. and it’s harder to pin down….

Lux is still a strong character, but in parts she does become a little whiny! She also stops questioning things and lets her “guys” deal with issues! And I’ve also got issues with Sunny/Apo/Sham/Rage/Atar/Doom and Gedd, they’ve gone from wanting to save the world to almost “meh” ? whatever!!

Kulki has a few chapters to have his say in the book, and also a few chapters dedicated to “nothing” (this is a character that interests me immensely) who are these characters? well in order to find out, you’ll need to read the books ? #sorrynotsorry

Still plenty of smut and spice, still lots of m/m, m/f/m, in fact throw those two letters in any direction and there they are ? all still at it.

I did get the feeling that the author didn’t really want to write this book, don’t get me wrong, the descriptions are spot on, continuity is dead on. It just felt a little half hearted.

I love this authors work, I’ve read most of it, but I have to admit, this isn’t my favourite couple of books!

Crea lives in upstate New York with her dog and husband. She has been writing since grade school, when her second grade teacher had her class keep writing journals. She has a habit of creating secondary, and often time tertiary, characters that take over her stories. All of her RH relationships end up being heavily polyamorous – meaning it’s not just all the men for one woman. There’s also some M/M action going on. When she can’t fall asleep at night, she thinks up new scenes for her characters to act out. This, of course, is how most of her meant-to-be-thrown-away characters tend to end up front and center – and utterly swoon-worthy! Don’t ask her how many book boyfriends she has…

When not writing, Crea is an avid reader. Her TBR pile is several hundred books high (don’t even look at her kindle wish list or the unread books on her tablet). Sometimes, she enjoys crafting; sometimes, exploring nature; sometimes, traveling. Mostly, she enjoys putting her characters on paper and breathing life into them. Oh, and sleeping.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 6, 2023

I’ve always been a part of the world of monsters. Storms thrive on the energy of other storms. In many ways, all monsters are perfect storms. That’s why they’re hunted. Content with a life of work and friends, I somehow find myself falling for the eleven gorgeous storms of House Igarashi. Settling in with them is natural, as if I’ve always been missing these pieces and suddenly I can take a breath of fresh hair. And then the Division of Silence threatens to take it all away. My name is Hadley. I am a lightning storm. If I lose even a single one of my men, I’m going to bring this world to its knees with blinding fury from the sky.

This is a polyamorous story with content not intended for those under 18 years of age due to graphic scenes and situations.

•••••

REVIEW:It’s the continuation from book one, so you’ll definitely need to ready that one before diving into this one…..

It’s still told in the Bronte and Hadley points of view, but it’s not all about them, it’s a story involving all of the harem.

Hadley is settling down to living her life with her houseful of “husbands” although she’s still sad that she’s lost her friends who didn’t understand her decision to move in with 11 men!! But she’s making new friends with the help of Bronte. She just needs a job!

Bronte is getting use to asking for what he wants and not what he thinks everyone else needs. The love that keeps the household together is shown through Bronte. But after the attack, Bronte has so many doubts and fears, he’s not sure if he will ever get past them!!!

The book starts off with a huge bang!! And I’m sure there were tears and snot bubbles (including mine!!) and from there on it’s a rollercoaster of a ride!! The organisation that what’s them eliminated have stepped up their campaign, no one that is in a harem is safe!

So what do the groups decide? After long discussions and debates, they want to go on the offence, take the fight to the organisation. Bronte wants revenge, but he doesn’t know how to go about it, he also just wants to hide and keep his family safe. Hadley feels the same, but her power wants revenge. Her husbands want to keep Hadley and Bronte safe, they don’t know who will be next…..

The duet has become my favourite in this series. The emotions will have you on the edge of your seat, the twists and turns come in thick and fast.

And we catch up with previous harems which I love. The banter and connections will have you smiling. I don’t want to give too much away about the ending, but it wasn’t what I was expecting.

A really highly recommended read.
