AARON’S UNLIKELY LOVE

Cardinal Falls - Book Four

by EJ Stoll

Release Date: February 26, 2026

Review

A gentle and lovely slow burn.


Aaron has been told numerous times he’s not a very good boyfriend. So no matter how much being with Oliver feels right and good, he’s reluctant to take them to the boyfriend level.


But you can’t fight something that works and makes you feel loved.  It takes them a bit of time, but ultimately Aaron and Oliver know they have good thing and fight to make it last.

Synopsis

All my past lovers have said the same thing: I'm a terrible boyfriend. It’s true. I’m dedicated to my friends, work, and running, in that order. Between shift work, a strict training schedule, and little free time, I leave myself with little energy for dating.

Which is perfectly fine until I meet Oliver. He’s gorgeous and easy to talk to, but he’s also on a date with my best friend’s crush. Not the best circumstances to start a relationship. I know better than to get involved with anyone, but someone who is enemy number one among my best friends is definitely a no-go.

The problem? I can’t seem to get Oliver off my mind or out of my bed.

REVIEW: Resting Beach Face by DJ Jamison (Swallow Cove #4)

  RESTING BEACH FACE Swallow Cove - Book Four by DJ Jamison Release Date: February 20, 2025 Review Declan is so beautiful. Quiet, a little grumpy, a little withdrawn, and maybe a little lost and lonely. Then there’s Cash - outgoing, sexual, and completely obsessed with Declan.  It’s a slow burn. One that requires both of them to shift their understanding of each other, and time to truly learn and understand both themselves and the other. I love both the trajectory of the relationship as well as the life and home they build.  It’s a truly wonderful pairing that may be my favourite in the series. Sure I see a bit of myself in Declan, but I also just adore the way Cash grew and how they balanced each other. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis He could have anyone he wants...so why is he so interested in me? Cash is a gorgeous chaotic bi guy with a reputation for getting around. And me? I'm the antisocial grump, closed off and lonely. We should be like oil and water....

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.

He’s calculating and lethal, his antisocial personality disorder provides him with the perfect tools for the Amatos to turn him into their deadlie...

REVIEW: Mine to Keep by Davidson King (Saint Brothers #3)

  MINE TO KEEP Saint Brothers - Book Three by Davidson King Release Date: March 31, 2025 Review Is there anything more delicious than two men who are attracted to each other but are fighting it, especially when it also involves the battle of a good but morally grey man and another who has a black-and-white view of what is right and wrong?  It creates some amazing tension. As the Saint Brothers continue to fight for those that need it, they, and especially Nick, find themselves in a predicament where the one that needs him, doesn’t want his brand of help.  But let's be honest, how could you not fall for the over-eager and stubborn man? Matt is lovely and I feel bad about not just his situation but that he had to have his eyes opened to the darkness most don’t see. But also, it’s satisfying to see his world expand.
