Review

Such a great story.  I love a kink story that pushes me a bit. Forest’s needs are definitely far from my own, but watching this controlled and proper not just fall apart in an intimate way, but also breaking through the walls he has up when it comes to the idea of a long-term relationship. Finally accepting that he can have both. It’s like an epiphany.


And Jarod, finding someone worth fighting for!! Gah!


I also really enjoy the juxtaposition of what they get up to set against our expectations of a small town.


They may be naughty, but they are also really sweet together.


The series is narrated by James Edward Jones, and I’m enjoying every second of it. He’s talented and does a great job at differentiating the characters.

Synopsis

A bad boy mechanic and a kinky accountant: can an indecent proposal lead to love?

Though Forrest Patton looks like a tweedy, uptight accountant, he’s anything but. Underneath the fussy bow ties and love of color-coded spreadsheets lies a man searching for someone to peel back the layers and fulfill his shameful fantasies. Eavesdropping at the diner in town leads him to wonder if the local mechanic might just be the man for the job.

Jarod Keener likes it rough, and he makes no secret of that. But he never expects to be approached with an offer to trade accounting advice for some dirty, risky fun. Always up for a challenge, Jarod dives in headfirst but Forrest doesn’t trust anyone to give him the humiliation he needs once feelings start to get in the way.

When a secret about Jarod’s family upends everything, Forrest will have to decide if he’s willing to give Jarod a chance to show him that he can have love and the kink he longs for.

Embracing His Shame includes: mild humiliation play, small-town gossip, and two men falling in love despite their best efforts.

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 Quiet, a little grumpy, a little withdrawn, and maybe a little lost and lonely.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....

  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.

  MURPHY’S LAW Havenwood - Book Two by Riley Hart Release Date: April 19, 2020 Audio Review Date: June 16, 2020 Review Remy and Lawson have such a wonderful first me. It was special. But then life happened and it pulled them apart, hurting both of them. What followed was a hard fought for reunion and second chance.  And trust me, I love an emotional second chance story. There’s something so satisfying about someone getting do over. Healing past hurts. Getting to know each other again as they are now. Though both men had changed with life, they were still perfect for one another. Still lifting each other up and being the others safe space. Truly a wonderful story. Kale Williams also did a nice job of the audiobook, bring the emotional style of the story to life. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Lawson We were eighteen when I met Remington Monroe.
