  DRAKE Foster Bros - Book Three by Jodie Harper Release Date: May 28, 2026 Review I love this powerful, emotional series of Foster brothers, the amazing fathers who took them in, and the men they find to spend their future with.

REVIEW: Rescued by the Chinese Warrior Prince by CD Rachels (Time Traveling Men in Love #1)

Image
  RESCUED BY THE ANCIENT CHINESE WARRIOR PRINCE Time Traveling Men in Love - Book One by CD Rachels Release Date: May 29, 2026 Review This short fantasy/time traveling romance was pretty great.  I’m really enjoying CD’s foray into fantasy & paranormal.  Because it’s short, there is an element of insta-love, but it’s also got a fated vibe that makes it feel necessary rather than sudden. Was their meeting meant to be? That’s the fun of time travel.  Was it already written, or is this new? Will it change history? Carmine travels back in time to retrieve an artifact, but in his search, he meets Kurun.  A prince who is restless and dreams of a life of adventure, not that of leading a dynasty. When the artifact makes a new future possible, will he take it and the possibility of love? Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Our missions are simple: go back in time, retrieve an anomaly, come back in seven days, and don’t change the past. There’s certainly no ro...
