ILLEGAL FORMATION

The San Diego Storm MM Football Series - Book Two

by Emerson Beckett

Release Date: April 1, 2025

Review

I love a second chance romance, and Dane broke my heart. Breaking his own heart all those years ago. 


When fate (and some parental meddling) happen, they find themselves in each other's paths. And there’s no going back, no matter how much they might fight it.


Lennox is a pushy dude and completely relentless. But they were a lot of fun once they stopped bickering. And their connection was wonderful.


Things jumped pretty quickly at one point, but otherwise, I really enjoyed the pace and trajectory of their story.

Synopsis

There’s a thin line between love and hate. Everything depends on what lengths you’re willing to go to in order to cross the line.

The last thing I remember is the night we graduated from high school.

Twelve years later, we’re both living in San Diego.

He can’t stand to look at me, and I can’t stand to stay away.

I have to know what he’s hiding, and I’ll stop at nothing to find out.

Lieutenant Dane Calloway

Lennox wants me back in his life. But I walked away from my former best friend and our plans for a reason.

He wants to know what happened, but I think he knows.

I hate him, and he lives to irritate the f*ck out of me.

And I’m not giving in even though it’s all I want to do.

About Emerson Beckett


Who is Emerson Beckett? That’s a good question.


I’m a retired educator who loves all things romance and an avid reader and consumer of well-written M/M romance books.

My journey to becoming an author started with an idea one night while I sat reading on my sofa. That idea became an email that ultimately resulted in me editing for three wonderful MM romance authors. The third referral led to an opportunity to co-write with one of the most genuine and kindest people I’ve ever had the pleasure to know. (She’s my co-author for Quarterback Keeper.)


Besides being a retired teacher and now an author, I’m a wife and a mother of three beautiful adults, one of which is trans. They have left us with an empty nest now full of pets.

REVIEW: All I Fear by Abrianna Denae (All's Fair #2)

  ALL I FEAR All’s Fair - Book Two by Abrianna Denae Release Date: September 19, 2023 Review protective, possessive and violent men.  Tennant and Hollis are an incredible pair. Kinky in the wildest way, they are everything and I adored them (even if slightly disturbed too).   Roman is heir to the Amato family and Tennant, as second in command, must shape him into the man he needs to be to one day takeover. Roman is a bit bratty and wild. Truthfully I don’t really care for him, but he certainly makes for an interesting dynamic to both Tennent and Hollis’ lives. I also love the addition of the odd chapter by other people’s view points, it adds a really interesting dynamic and keeps you tied to all the characters in the series. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Tennant Mason is the Amato Family’s Second in Command. He’s calculating and lethal, his antisocial personality disorder provides him with the perfect tools for the Amatos to turn him into their deadlie...

  NOT NOT NORMAL by Peter E. Fenton Release Date: September 11, 2024 Review I don’t read a lot of YA, but if they were all like this, I totally would. Not Not Normal was a touching and uplifting story that anyone who wasn’t ‘normal’ in school could relate to. Finding the tribe of people, friends or lovers, that appreciate you just the way you are.  Jordan and Nathan are both pretty special guys and they make each other's lives so much bigger and more interesting, while also supporting each other, in the ways they can, through the big emotions and frustrations they are experiencing in their lives.  It was such a warm and rich read, and I love the ease in which you could connect with the characters. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Jordan and Nathan couldn’t be more different, but when order and chaos collide, opposites attract. Jordan is a bit of an oddball at school. He likes rules, routine, old sci-fi novels, and is often the victim of his bully’s torment. Wh...
