For a sport (hockey) MM romance, which are usually on the lighter side, this hit me in the feels much more than anticipated. The writing was emotional, and the s3x scenes were intense & intimate. I don’t usually enjoy enemies-to-lovers, but this was perfectly paced for the transition in the relationship to feel natural.

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!

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

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.

Phobia brings together 12 authors, both MM and MF romance, with many authors you’ve probably heard of, and others that you’ll want to seek out their other books. My 5 fave stories (all MM) were:
The diversity of the cast, the deaf & autistic representation is a standout in this book. I learnt so much about the deaf community and ASL as I read,The diversity of the cast, the deaf & autistic representation is a standout in this book. I learnt so much about the deaf community and ASL as I read, a lot of things that will stay with me and transform the way I interact with deaf people.
As someone who loves an autistic person, I found it really emotional to read Bodhi’s experiences, because I could heavily relate to the ways he was treated. I’m not sure whether it was because of that, but I just didn’t feel the connection between Bodhi & Caleb. I found the switch from Caleb being abrupt & intolerant to being attracted to Bodhi too sudden. Anyway, that’s just me. I gradually warmed up to them towards the end, and enjoyed seeing the positive impact of the relationship on Bodhi, but I didn’t fully connect with Caleb…...more

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.

Noah is reluctantly in college, and acts out to be able to leave. He is rescued by his Dad’s work partner & friend, Sawyer. Instant attraction, and despite the age difference and being Noah’s dad’s best friend, they fall quickly into an intense relationship. Sawyer is a calming influence on Noah, reigning in those brattish tendencies, but Noah’s past comes back to chase him.
I’d guessed the plot twist before it happened, but good effort made to give multiple possibilities for the “who dunnit”. Enjoyable, easy read, but be aware of content warnings for triggering content...more

This is spicy AF, and I’m totally here for it! The voyeuristic tendencies, and the sex in public places rounds it out to be a must-read ...more
