  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?

  SUMMIT Ricochet Ridge - Book Four by Jillian D Wray Release Date: May 28, 2026 Review The final story in the Richochet Ridge series was the darkest for sure. I loved the couple together; they are both lovely men, and it was definitely an interesting predicament; one who lies because he struggles to trust and the other who struggles to trust someone who lies.  Zeke has lived one hell of a tough life and can’t seem to catch a break.  Despite it all, he’s a sweet soul.   Christian, on the other hand, has lived a life of privilege and wealth, but that means he’s never really experienced a life of his own or been sure that his friends are his friends. But in order to carve out a future, they have to deal with an abusive to-be-ex boyfriend and the publicity of being wealthy and interesting to the media. I did struggle with parts of this story.  There is a lot of on-page domestic and sexual violence, which I’m not entirely sure was necessary for the story. ...

  MENDING HEARTS Chords & Courts - Book Three by Becca Seymour Release Date: May 28, 2026 Review Wow, this trilogy has blown me away. It also destroyed me, and it was basically three books of me crying, but the journey, pain, & love was absolutely worth it. We all cursed Ollie the entire way through book 2, and there was worry about how he could possibly redeem himself and win Rafe back. But they did it.  And it was THEY. It took both working together, at the same time, to find their happy ever after. And as long as you don’t torment yourself with the years they ‘lost’, you’ll know that sometimes you have to go through some things in order to find your forward. Truly an incredible story. One of those books (series) that i feel honoured to have read.

But control shattered the night everything went pub...
