Review

A great emotional best friends romance with a bit of stalker suspense to provide a little extra tension.


My first book by Bec Benson, and I really enjoyed the writing and the setting. I like romance stories with a suspense element.


Logan and Rider have a great relationship, but Logan is gay and in love with his straight best friend. While he’s trying to find a way to move forward and keep his friendship, a stalker pops up, forcing Ryder to become extremely protective.


Forced proximity and fear allow these two to find their way.


The audiobook is narrated by Liam DiCosimo & Kirt Graves, which definitely adds to why I enjoyed this book so much.

Synopsis

Ryder

I spend my days narrating steamy queer romance novels—which is ironic, considering my own love life is nonexistent and I’ve always thought I was straight.

Until Logan.

He’s my best friend. My person. We’ve been inseparable for years, and now I’m starting to see him as something more.

Then the emails start.

Someone’s watching me. Stalking me. And Logan is the only person I can turn to.

We’re together constantly, and the longer we’re stuck in this mess, the harder it is to ignore the tension between us that isn’t supposed to be there.

Or maybe it always was. Maybe I just wasn’t ready to see it.

Logan

I’ve never let myself think about Ryder like that. He’s straight. I shut that door the second we met in college and never looked back.

But now, Ryder needs me, so I stay close. Closer than we’ve ever been. And the more time we spend together, the more I start to wonder if I was wrong about everything.

Because the way he looks at me now?

Maybe I’m not the only one who’s been ignoring something.

And maybe neither of us wants to anymore.

Straight to You is a best-friends-to-lovers MM romance with forced proximity, bi-awakening, and an audiobook-narrator MMC. This is not a dark romance, but contains darker themes. HEA guaranteed.

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 Quiet, a little grumpy, a little withdrawn, and maybe a little lost and lonely.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