Image
  THE BAIT The Milvus Files - Book Two by NR Walker Release Date: September 27, 2024 Audio Release Date: September 6, 2024 Review Harry and Asher’s quaint life in the remotes of Australia is disrupted, and their lives are thrown into chaos when they and their friends' lives come under attack. Suddenly, after a couple of years, they are back in the game, unsure who to trust, who the bad guys are, whether or not they will ever get their quiet life and cat back. It’s an entertaining game of cat and mouse, as we are reminded why these two work so well together, and exactly how much they love. Such a great couple, and I love the suspense of it all. And let’s not forget, the audiobook is narrated by Glen Lloyd, who will always be a favourite - he’s truly talented Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis When three men turn up in their sleepy little town of Tallowwood, Harry and Asher know something’s wrong. Not because someone could find them, but the fact that Asher’s informant and ...

  PRINCE OF THE NORTHWEST FOREST Runaway Prince Hotel - Book Four by Leslie McAdam Release Date: August 29, 2025 Review Leslie’s wonderful writing is set in a world of realm princes, baristas, evil fae, wood nymphs, and more. Kalle and Justice are such wonderful people and have such a sweet bond, even if they don’t understand why.

REVIEW: A Werewolf Mate for Christmas by Gigi Rivers (MM Monster Christmas Novella)

Image
  A WEREWOLF MATE FOR CHRISTMAS MM Monster Christmas - Novella by Gigi Rivers Release Date: November 1, 2024 Review Ugh, I really love this cozy (with some spice) MM monster holiday series.  The world is simple but interesting, and the family of kitchen witches are sweet and kind. I love hearing Wulfric’s thoughts when he’s ‘stuck’ in his wolf state while healing. How excited he is for his fated mate, but also the loss of his pack.  He immediately screams devoted and gentle (unless you mess with his mate!). Briar is equally lovely. He’s close with his large family, but is also longing for something of his own, so a fated mate is perfect for our nature-loving witch. There’s also a bit of an origin story for this series inside as well, which is adorable and funny. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis A wounded werewolf. A witch who nurses him back to health. What happens when the witch turns out to be the werewolf’s mate? Hearth witch Briar has a tendency to care fo...

REVIEW: Love By Design by Kate Hawthorne (Club Rapture: Risk Aware #1)

Image
  REBOUND by Kate Hawthorne Club Rapture: Risk Aware - Book One Release Date: September 8, 2025 Review Kate is such a solid kink writer. And really good at creating relationship dynamics that are both dom/sub, but also just two men building a relationship. Marshall is a solid and caring man, for all those he loves, and even young men who are talented and skilled but aren’t being respected by the father they work for?  And the way he helps Silas come into his own, giving him the space to be himself, and the care to let him be free of all that worries and stresses him. It was a lovely (and spicy) journey, with some equally lovely side stories about brothers and best friends, all of whom I hope we get to see again soon. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis The first book in Kate Hawthorne's new series, Risk Aware , takes us back to Los Angeles and back to the club where it all began...Rapture. Love by Design: Risk Aware Book One is a dad's business rival (with a mouth on ...
