ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 23, 2025

Franchesca Frankie Blake’s life is a carefully balanced chaos: single mom, rink-side bartender, and secret late-night skater with two left feet. Romance? Not on the schedule. Especially not with the cocky, dominant, too-hot-for-their-own-good beer league boys who practically live at the rink.

At least, that’s what she tells herself—right up until a babysitter emergency drops her kids in the laps of Travis and Elliot.

Travis is a rugged carpenter who smells like sawdust and sin. Elliot is a golden-retriever firefighter who blushes when he’s turned on. They’re best friends, which makes her off-limits. But stolen glances spark into heated kisses, secret phone calls, and one night that turns into three tangled bodies and dangerously tempting more.

Now Frankie’s juggling bedtime stories, secret sleepovers, and two men who don’t know how to share—but aren’t willing to let her go.

But someone else is watching.
A stalker lurks in the shadows, leaving behind chilling reminders that her past isn’t as far behind as she thinks. And when obsession turns dangerous, Travis and Elliot might be the only thing standing between her and the threat she doesn’t dare name out loud.

She never planned to fall for either of them.
She definitely didn’t plan to fall for both.
And she never expected the biggest risk would be surviving it.

REVIEW:🏒 Cedar Bluff Penalties 🏒

First and foremost, holy freakin smokes! You want a book that is going to spark a little sumtin, sumtin, this is the read for you. OTP is a MMF hockey romance featuring a single black cat mom and two very different guys that she falls for. Check your trigger warnings before reading, some topic on and off page.

Frankie is your average Mom, doing her best with what she’s got, and truly what she has are two very wonderful children that know they are loved and a support system she doesn’t even know she had. After returning to her hometown after years away, she is finally getting her life back to where she and her kids feel safe. And safe is the hockey rink with the beer league and her regulars. Enter Elliot and Travis.

Elliot is a golden retriever, with a nickname like Sunshine how could he not be. He’s giddy and upbeat, always willing to help others and spread a little joy. He’s a firefighter with a hero complex, but what firefighter doesn’t have one of those. But like every person, he too has his own struggles and with the help of Travis and Frankie, those struggles just might not be so bad.

Travis is the grumpy silent type. He’s big and broad, and tougher than anyone, he hides his emotions well and always seems to know just what to say when the people around him need him. He is a protector to his core and loves to work with his hands, so as a contractor that works well for him.

Together this trio makes a new family, but with every family there are growing pains. Not to mention a terror from Frankie’s past makes a reappearance, one that will take all of them together to face, and beat.

What a freaking book this was! This isn’t some soft afternoon read friends, this is emotion, this is spice, this is love. Frankie, Elliot and Travis’ journey isn’t an easy one, each of them has their own insecurities, and even more so as a group, they have to keep constant open communication, they are all learning how to be together. The depth between Travis and Elliot was probably one of my favorite parts of this book, the vulnerabilities they each have, but their willingness to open up to one another with Frankie as their conduit was simply breathtaking. There is much emotional baggage from all three of the throuple throughout the book, but it is well paced and the storyline flows unbelievably well. As always with this author, you can count on the best spice there is, and that holds true with OTP as well. I am very much looking forward to the rest of this series!

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 23, 2025

Marta

I joined the Royal Harlots MC to hunt monsters—not to fall in love.

Atlas and Wesson Colt are chaos wrapped in leather and sin. Brothers bound in blood and violence.

When a ritual goes wrong, the three of us are dragged into a liminal world where desire has teeth, pain tastes like pleasure, and every boundary we once held sacred melts into hunger.

Atlas

I’ve spent years fighting monsters and keeping my brother alive. I can handle blood, curses, and death, but not the way this bond twists through the three of us, tightening until I can feel Wesson’s breath in my chest and Marta’s heartbeat in my veins.

The liminal exposes everything—every craving, every flaw, every memory I buried to survive. In this place, hate and hunger blur until I can’t tell where mine ends and theirs begins…and whether any of us can survive the pull of our worst impulses.

Wesson

I wasn’t made for this life. Not the Harlots, not the warriors, not her. Atlas carries rage; I carry shame. The kind of damage you don’t come back from.

But being in the liminal forces it all to the surface. Every thought I shouldn’t think. Every desire I shouldn’t feel. For her. For him. For the darkness strangling the three of us with every breath.

If we don’t escape this realm soon, it won’t just claim us. It’ll consume us.

Three enemies. One cursed bond. A darkness that feeds on love and fear alike. When the only way out is through each other, survival might cost them their souls.

••••••••

REVIEW: FILTHY LITTLE WITCH is the first instalment in Jena Doyle’s contemporary, adult ROYAL HARLOTS MC: ASHEVILLE NC dark,erotic,paranormal/ fantasy romance, a part of the multi-authored RHMC, a spin off set in the RBMC worlds. This is witch Marta McDonnell-Ruiz, and step-brothers, warriors Wesson and Atlas Colt’s storyline. For fans of the RBMC and RHMC, there is a slight cross over with the RBMC and a cameo by Peter Hellsing (Hellsing’s Grace).

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise including MMF, MFM sexual situations, there may be triggers for mores sensitive readers

Told from three first person perspectives FILTHY LITTLE WITCH follows in the aftermath of the ceremony in which Royal Harlot MC member witch Marta Ruiz would be supernaturally bonded to a warrior chosen by fate but fate had a different plan for Marta and gifted our heroine two warriors, step-brothers Wesson and Atlas Colt, two men Marta blames for the death of her parents. Within hours, the trio has their first assignment, to uncover the truth behind a series of ghastly murders, murders that appear to involve a dangerous and dark supernatural element. Pulled into the liminal, a world in between, Marta, Wesson and Colt would have to work together in an effort to survive but an ancient demon is determined to claim our story line trio, forcing Marta, Wesson and Atlas closer, in the wake of their growing bonds, and a desperate need to survive.

The world building is detailed and complex as ancient rites and rituals are manifested and used in an effort to escape the demon from H&ll. Forced to use dark magic to escape the demon, our trio are trapped in the liminal (the in-between) for several months, time in which they will develop more than a witch and warrior relationship.

The relationship between Marta and the Colt brothers begins acrimoniously as Marta blames the Colt brothers for the death of her parents but fate has forced the trio together wherein love will blossom between not only Marta, Wesson and Atlas, but between the step-brothers as well. The $ex scenes are provocative, erotic and intense.

The secondary and supporting characters are energetic and colorful including several members of the RHMC: Asheville, a coven of witches, and their fated warriors. We are introduced to RHMC: Asheville president Lilith, VP Circe, Marta’s best friend and fellow witch Bridget, and Marta’s grandmother Tita, as well as a cameo by Peter Hellsing.

FILTHY LITTLE WITCH is a story of power and control, magic and darkness, family and relationships, acceptance and love. The premise is dark, dramatic and gritty; the romance is edgy; the characters are powerful, determined and dynamic.

Cactus Heart (Whynot 1) by Clio Evans-review tour

In the small West Texas town of Whynot, why not fall for your brother’s two best friends—even if it means risking a broken heart?

Two years ago, I moved back to the dusty small town I used to call home. Every day that goes by is the same until two men I have no business wanting turn my life upside down.

Levi Rayburn. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the ex-hockey player, but now he’s back in Texas—hotter and more rugged than ever.

Mateo Jimenez. The mustached firefighter is sexy, sweet, and has been there for me more times than I can count.

The only problem? As my overprotective brother’s best friends—Levi and Mateo are completely off limits.

At least, they should be…

•••••

REVIEW: 🌵💞Because WHYNOT? 💞🌵

Cactus Heart is the first installment in the Whynot series by Clio Evans. This book had me in an absolute state as soon as it hit my Kindle. A small-town, why choose, brothers besties romance, sign me right the heckie up! This is a queer romance friend, if that’s not your cuppa…well you know what to do.

Now I’m sure you’re thinking, “what a weirdo this chick must be..” Why yes, I live in all things “weird” but so does our main girl Avery. Avery is a Whynot native and surrounded by her two older (and far too over protective) brothers; Austin and Dallas. (I so hope they get books btw) She is a free spirit, a painter, a woman who knows what she wants, but also a woman that no man in the state of Texas is allowed to date. After moving back to her small-hometown of Whynot, and an end to a VERY bad relationship, Avery is more than ready to get on with her life, even if that means she has to be single forever.

Well life has other plans for her.

Levi is a hockey player, good at his job, but utterly miserable. When he finally decides he needs a break, he packs up and heads to the one place and the one person who still means something to him. Whynot Texas and his childhood friend Austin. When he arrives into town, he is surprised to find not one, but two people waiting there for him. Mateo is a local hero, a fire fighter and all around good guy, not to mention he’s been in love with Avery since he laid eyes on her two years ago. Afraid to go after the woman who is his best friend’s little sister, he stays close to her in the only way he can, as a friend. When the addition of Levi arrives in the small-town, it gives him the nudge he finally needs to make his move on Avery. But Avery isn’t the only one he wants now. He wants Levi too, and so does Avery.

What a read! I loved this story so much. There is drama, there is pain, there is growth, there are tears, and oh my gawd there is spice! The characters’ relationship with each other, the way they learn to open up to one another and be vulnerable, to share their secrets, their wants, then communicate in a way that allows them to come to a consensual place for their sexual wants and needs. (kinky spreadsheets anyone?) Each of the three have their hang-ups and trauma, each needing something from the other and willing to learn and grow together. Mateo, Levi and Avery really make up a beautiful throuple together and make for an even better read. Along with the fantastic BDSM scenes there is also the family drama from Avery’s Mom and brothers, her grief from her father and don’t forget about Levi and his soul searching as I like to call it. All this culminates in a wonderful HEA that just brought such delight to my soul. Here is hoping the rest of the series can top Cactus Heart.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 30, 2025

The night I met them irrevocably changed my life.
The Devil’s Den.
The notorious MC known for boozing and sharing their women between brothers.
That life never appealed to me. Not until I met Walker, Hudson, and Levi.
I’ve found myself sucked deeper into their life as each day goes by.
It was never supposed to be more than a small favor, but you know what they say.
Play with the devil and get burned by his flame.

••••

REVIEW:  THE DEVIL’S DEN by Cala Riley is a stand alone, contemporary, adult, ‘why-choose’ erotic, romance story line set in the multi-authored 31 DAYS OF TRICK OR TREAT. This is Zoologist Esme, and Hudson, Walker and Levi’s reverse harem relationship.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from four first person perspectives (Esme, Hudson, Walker and Levi)THE DEVIL’S DEN follows the building relationship between Esme and the three men with whom she will fall in love. Having caught her boyfriend Troy in bed with her best friend Kimberly, Esme was struggling with issues of self esteem but when she discovers another set-up wrapped in yet another betrayal, our heroine takes charge, literally landing in the lap of a biker at a bar. Walker agrees to play along, thus embarking on a lifelong relationship with his two best friends, and the woman with whom they will fall in love. The past refuses to let go, refusing to give up and walk away, and in this Esme finds herself facing down her demons on more than one occasion.

The world building focuses on the ‘why choose’ relationship between Esme, Walker, Hudson and Levi. Levi and Walker are bisexual, and have been in a relationship for as long as they can remember: Hudson is the third friend, who loves his ‘brothers’ equally , and all three are hoping to find one woman with whom to share their lives. THE DEVIL’S DEN focuses more upon the relationship than the MC lifestyle . The MC consists of several clans and polyamorous relationships, each searching for one woman to share. Esme, as well as Hudson, Walker and Levi all grew up in the foster care system, and in this they share a kindred spirit with their own heartbreaking past.

The relationship between Esme, and Hudson, Walker and Levi begins as a pseudo rescue in the wake of the ongoing betrayal in Esme’s personal life.Worried that the woman with whom they are falling in love will choose only one, Walker, Hudson and Levi each have personal time and a chance at seduction, ensuing Esme will fall in love with all three. The $ex scenes are erotic, and provocative without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The secondary and supporting characters are limited. We are introduced to Esme’s former friends Kimberly and Ambers, as well as ex-boyfriend Troy: co-workers Charlotte and Susie.

THE DEVIL’S DEN is a story of love and loss, obsession and betrayal, family and friendship, acceptance and love. The fast paced, character driven premise is thought provoking and inviting; the romance is spicy and unconventional; the characters are energetic and charismatic,

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 9, 2025

One beast is bad enough… but three?

Briar Rose always knew she would be married to the highest bidder. So it comes as no surprise when she finds herself at the altar with Cillian Blackwood, a notoriously beastly billionaire.

No one mentioned anything about the other monsters, though.

With his scarred face and hulking brawn, Dane is enough to scare most people out of their skin – literally. And when he isn’t around? The clever, callous Rhys is all too happy to prove there are worse things than fear.

Briar might think she has a plan to escape the beasts without giving anything away…

But what happens when your monsters turn out to be your mates? And all their twisted torments become your wildest fantasies?

REVIEW:🥀🥀🥀 OMEGAVERSE AT ITS BEST 🥀🥀🥀

Book two in the Royalverse series by the ever talented Ari Wright, is the next adventure in this omegaverse series. This is a Beauty and the Beast retelling, just with a darker twist. Each book can be read as a standalone in the interconnected series, but as always I do recommend reading the series in order to get the most out of it. Also, check your trigger warnings, most is off page, but there is talk of different trauma.

Briar Rose (Love the name) is a former prima ballerina and current caged bird. A pawn to her father, abused, experimented on and finally sold off. Sold by her father (i use this title loosely) after he no longer sees her worth anymore, sold to a man that may not be any better than Daddy dearest.

Cillian Blackwood, a name as dark and ominous as he is. He needs a wife, and Briar will do as well as any other. After their marriage ceremony, they return to their new home together, little does Briar know that it’s not just one beast she has married, but a whole pack of them. Cillian, Dane and Rhys are feral, dangerous alphas that make up the Blackwood pack, each with their own damage and trauma, each needing Briar in a different way. Cillian marries Briar with a secret, a secret from her and a secret from his packmates, one that he isn’t willing to share just yet. They have an agreement in place, none of them can touch Briar without her consent, but what happens when it’s made clear that the pack needs an heir? A new agreement is made and all hekie breaks loose. Briar slowly opens to the pack, learning what she can pull and what she can’t. Dane is quiet and closed off, with his mask covered face and soft eyes. Rhys who suffers from horrible headaches, his venomous personality one that only Briar can tame. Then Cillian, with his quiet control, he hides secrets in his room that he can’t wait to share with her. As Briar starts to spend more time with each alpha, she slowly starts to develop feelings for each of them, they speak to her in a way that she both loves and hates, but gives her something she has never had. A choice.

Holy Hekie!!

Talk about a spicy re-telling! Ari writes omegaverse like no other, her characters are fierce and protective, always fighting for what they want and always getting their HEA. Dane was definitely my favorite for the majority of the book, until we get more of the back story with each of the alpha’s and then I don’t think I could pick one. Each guy is so torn and broken in their own way, and each is only soft for their omega, this makes such a great read. I really have to give the author credit for where she goes with the plot for this book. I was pleasantly surprised towards the end and even happier when the bad guy gets what is coming to them. I can’t wait to see what re-telling we get next!

Vesper Rossi was born into violence, but nothing could prepare her for the truth she now holds—a truth that burns hotter than revenge and cuts deeper than any blade. Her brother is alive, and her son—her stolen son—has been passed off as at the new Petrov heir, raised by her cousin as her own child.

With blood in her veins and fire in her heart, Vesper embarks on a savage journey to take back what’s hers. The Petrov empire will fall. Their alliances will shatter. And their very bloodline will burn.

With the Second Sons at her back and in her bed—Vesper will carve a path through anyone who stands in her way. She is no longer the captive; she is the storm, and she won’t stop until every lie has been scorched from the earth.

As Vesper tears through the underworld to rescue her brother and reclaim her legacy, the dark forces that stole everything from her are preparing to strike back. This is no longer about revenge—this is a war.

The truth will ruin them all. Blood will be spilled. And by the time Vesper’s vengeance is unleashed, the world will be nothing but ashes at her feet.

••••

REVIEW:The conclusion to the Second Sons Duet, All The Darkest Truths has arrived!! You must have read the first book in the duet series, nothing is going to make a lick of sense if you haven’t. Check your trigger warnings, this one is just as devious as the first installment.

We just right back in where book one (All The Pretty Little Lies) left off, Vesper is free and more determined than ever to take back what is hers no matter the consequences. Vesper with her guys, Zaire, Oscar, Talon and Alex are a force to be reckoned with, with them together again they embark on their journey to find Luca and Vesper’s son. Of course there is the mystery of The Collector and where they will turn up. This book takes dramatic twists and turns to another level, through contained struggles and hardships, Vesper and her guys fight to find their happiness.

Vesper and her men grow so much throughout the two books. Character growth is always important, but when you have a reverse harem like this, it can get a little dicey, with so many characters, sometimes it feels like some get more than others. Not with Ms. Paige though, all of the fellas in this series really come into their own, not to mention Vesper. She is such a complex character, she is sassy and strong, but can be delicate and vulnerable with her guys. Truly a character to relate to. The storyline is fast paced, which is good because this series takes you through the emotions, but it just enhances the reader’s experience. When the ending finally came up, I was waiting for something else, but no, it’s just BAM it’s done, a little sad for that but excited for what will hopefully come next!

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 13, 2025

She’s out of their league… but they’re still playing for keeps.

You know the phrase, “It is what it is?” Well, for Bridget Woods, it is what you make it.

But even she has to admit… this situation seems pretty hopeless.

She accepted the Locke Pack’s ridiculous offer so she could finally find some control over her life. Sure, they were a hot mess and she definitely hated them, but Bridget was never a girl to shy away from a challenge.

She also never expected she would be splashed across media headlines, outed as the famous pro-baseball players’ “fake fiancée.” There’s only one way to save face—the atrocious alphas have to double-down and move in with her.

With four strong-willed men invading her space, Bridget soon finds out her beloved independence might be a little hard to swing. Big-bat-wielding alphas who smell like her own personal heaven? All up in her business (not to mention her tiny bedroom)?

It sounds like a fun, naughty dream she had once. But now the men who only wanted Bridget as a showpiece are suddenly treating her like she might be their mate… And making sure she knows exactly how much they want their fake engagement to become the real deal.

Can Bridget still walk-off without catching feelings? Or will these players beat her at her own game?

••••••••

REVIEW:The lovely Ari Wright has graced us with the next installment in the MVP Pack series! As always, I recommend reading the series in order to get the most out of it, but each book can be read as a standalone in the interconnected series.

Bridget is an omega, a shy, sweet, kind woman who just wants to find her place in the world. Coming from a family that treated her unkindly, a society that degrades her body type and a near zero self esteem, she just wants freedom. She wants what all omegas want, a loving pack that will treat her with sincerity and respect, however due to her rather strong perfume she is labeled as “undesirable”. Enter the Locke Pack. Their pack has a reputation, and not a good one. When they offer up a fake engagement to solve their bad rep problem, Bridget jumps at the chance, but not everything is as it seems. Colt, Jesse, Dante and the newly added pack leader Adrian make up the Locke Pack. When they agree to this fake engagement, they think nothing of it outside of it being a means to an end. However, as time progressed they start to realize just how perfect Bridget is for them.

I loved the grovelling in this book! I have read my fair share of Omegaverse, and Ari Wright quickly became a favorite. Bridget’s character is so relatable to so many people nowadays, the way she struggles to come to terms with herself and that this pack does truly want her makes the story that much better of a read. Colt had me wanting to smack him at times, and Adrian is definitely my favorite, but each of the guys had something that Bridget needed to feel complete.

Overall the plot was fun and easy to keep up with, the characters relatable, the spice perfect. For readers that enjoy the world of Omegaverse, this is the series for you.

If three’s a crowd, then what’s four?

A happily ever after.

All my life, my parents bounced around hippie communes, dragging me along for the shroom-fueled ride. When they announced we were moving again, I expected more of the same—group cabins, rundown shacks, or flimsy yurts. But Eternal Sun was nothing like the other places. It was a dream come true.

Until that dream plummeted into a nightmare.

When the leader of the luxurious wellness center shared where I fit into his prophecy, I was forced to run away from everything I knew and loved—including my parents. I landed a coveted job at Black Resorts and got my first taste of a normal life.

It was also where I met Cole, Marco, and Freddy.

A hot tech nerd, a mountain of a bodyguard, and a cocky chef who was also my boss. Three very different men who made me feel an intense attraction I’d never experienced before.

But then Eternal Sun stole them from me, too.

Or so I thought.

Because when things went from bad to worse, they were back. Taking care of me. Hovering over me. Annoying the hell out of me.

I tried to keep my distance. When that didn’t work, I ignored them. They didn’t let that happen, either. The longer I spent with the three possessive men, the harder it was to choose. But I had to….

Right?

REVIEW: It’s over and I am sad! Little Goddess is the third and final installment in the Black Resort series by the ever talented Layla Frost. Each book can be read as a standalone in the series, but I do recommend reading them in order. Triggers warnings early, this is a why choose romance with a bi-awakening, if that isn’t your thing, best not to read. If it is; buckle up Buttercup, it’s a wild ride!

Callie has lived a rough life, escaping a cult and now trying to make her way in Las Vegas, things aren’t going the best. Growing up and having to not only take care of herself but her parents as well didn’t leave her much time to herself, and let’s face it living in a cult isn’t the norm. When she finally has had all she can take, and goes out on her own, she finds herself working for who you guess? That’s right, funny and sweet Freddy, the Chef at the Black Resort kitchen.

Freddy and Callie hit it off right off the bat and their interactions cooking together are sweet and kind and maybe even a little flirty. While Freddy starts to develop feelings for Callie he is also struggling with his feelings for his best friend, and a secret crush he doesn’t dare tell another soul about.

-Que dramatic music-

Cole is one of the few men Maximo trusts (we all remember Daddy Max right, previous book) and Cole takes that seriously. Change is happening and poor Cole is taking hit after hit, he hates being alone, even more so now that he has moved out of the pool house, his internal turmoil over his attraction to Freddy, and then finish it off with his growing attraction to Freddy’s new employee. Poor man is living in his own personal hell. Oh and then Marco, beasty, built like a freight train, Marco. This man is the living personification of built for protection, one look at Callie and he is gone for her.

When it comes to light that all three guys are trying for Callie’s attention; they do what all guys do when it comes to more than one of them wanting the same thing. They compete, well kinda. This doesn’t last long as Callie has feelings for all of them, and Freddy and Cole also have feelings for each other. Drama and chaos ensues but oh what a book it makes.

For writing a why-choose for the first time, Ms. Layla you have knocked our socks off! The Black Resort series varies with its genres but for Little Goddess to produce a Why-Choose with an MM romance as well was such a great way to end the series. Callie, Cole, Freddy and Marco have a dynamic that works so well; Freddy and Cole share this spicy yet soft connection that brings a great add on to their relationship with Callie. And don’t count Marco out now, he may not be into guys, but he IS all about Callie, and I think that works about perfect for their little quad group. Callie grew up without much love, so for her to receive love, attention and protection from these men, it makes my heart just flutter.

There is so much more I could add, but alas, the page only holds so many words. For fans of this author and the Why-Choose genre, get, read it, love it!

Growing up, Layla Frost used to hide under her blanket with a flashlight to read the Sweet Valley High books she pilfered from her older sister. It wasn’t long before she was reading hidden Harlequins during class at school. This snowballed into pulling all-nighters after the promise of “just one more chapter”.

Her love of reading, especially the romance genre, took root early and has grown immeasurably until it was time to write her own stories.

When she’s not writing, Layla Frost is an insomniac with a deep love of iced coffee, tchotchkes, plants, and her hens. She’s also the world’s okayest mom, but her kids think she’s cool… ish.
