The Deep of the Sound

(Bluewater Bay 08)
by

Amy Lane

Cal McCorkle has lived in Bluewater Bay his whole life. He works two jobs to support a brother with a laundry list of psychiatric diagnoses and a great-uncle with Alzheimer’s, and his personal life amounts to impersonal hookups with his boss. He’s got no time, no ambition, and no hope. All he has is family, and they’re killing him one responsibility at a time.

Avery Kennedy left Los Angeles, his family, and his sleazy boyfriend to attend a Wolf’s Landing convention, and he has no plans to return. But when he finds himself broke and car-less in Bluewater Bay, he’s worried he’ll have to slink home with his tail between his legs. Then Cal McCorkle rides to his rescue, and his urge to run away dies a quick death.

Avery may seem helpless at first, but he can charm Cal’s fractious brother, so Cal can pretty much forgive him anything. Even being adorkable. And giving him hope. But Cal can only promise Avery “until we can’t”—and the cost of changing that to “until forever” might be too high, however much they both want it.

Yours All Along

(The Loving on the Edge 07.5)
by

Roni Loren

The new Loving on the Edge romance from the New York Times bestselling author of  Nothing Between Us turns on the heat between two men who wonder how much they’re willing to risk in the name of love.

Four years after an accident tore their friendship apart, Hunter and Devon are living separate lives. Hunter is now the all-America hero—a congressman’s son and a pro pitcher in Houston preparing to marry his beauty-queen girlfriend. Devon is in Dallas running a new restaurant.

But when Hunter unexpectedly shows up in Devon’s bar, Devon can’t turn him away. Damn it if the man isn’t still gorgeous. But engaged? Hell no. All he’s doing for Devon is bringing back memories of their college-roommate days, and the night their relationship went too far. Turns out Hunter has never forgotten it either.

Now Devon can’t help but be drawn in all over again by the only guy who’s ever gotten close enough to break his heart. Maybe one more night together would be enough for both of them to finally move on. Or maybe one night will change everything…

Guitars and Cages

by

Layla Dorine

Asher Logan is a bartender and a pretty wicked guitar player, when he isn’t wrecking his hands fighting in a cage. With a past he keeps hoping to outrun, Asher’s been on a downward spiral for longer than he can remember. When his sister-in-law leaves Rory, his eight-year-old nephew, in his care, Asher is forced into two things he’s never been good at: sobriety and responsibility. As he struggles to care for Rory, his own life begins to unravel.

When Asher’s brother, Alex, turns up, presenting as a girl and announcing her new name is Alexia, it further complicates matters, as does the arrival of his new neighbor, Conner. Both, in their own way, compel Asher to look at his own closely-guarded views on sexuality.

When the siblings’ older brother, Cole, reacts violently to Alexia, Asher is placed squarely in the middle of a family conflict which compels him to confront who he pretends to be versus who he really is.

Asher must choose who to trust and who to finally walk away from.

A young man and a wolf appear close together. The young man is dark-haired the wolf has pure white fur and amber eyes. The young man is holding the wolf close to himself in an almost possessive manner. They seem like they belong together.
STORY LETTER:
Dear Author,

I am an Alpha werewolf who has been looking for his mate. Until I find him (yes, I am gay, my pack is pretty much open to sexuality), I am allowed to have fun with other guys. I’m known as a player but that’s okay because once I find my mate, my wolf and I will be truly monogamous.

Then I find him. My mate (You can decide how we meet— make it meet-cute type). But then my mate says that he is an asexual. What the hell? What does he mean, asexual? Does he mean that I cannot have sex with him ever? That he will never enjoy sex with me? How can I make him fall in love with me then?

But my wolf and I are determined to romance my mate; even if I have to join AVEN forum (which I thought at first as forum for AVIAN shifters) and talk around to couples with asexual lovers for tips. Because I will have my HEA with him, right, dear author?

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Ami

PS: No D/s or BDSM, no “baby” as endearment please!! (And keep the endearment on the minimum, I dislike excessive endearment), and no sex before halfway (remember, the mate is an asexual!!), and I prefer a kind of humorous type of story about a werewolf who wants to woo his asexual mate

Review: Cute and sweet story. It was intriguing reading about an alpha wolf and his asexual mate and how they coped with it. Though some of the story seemed a little off and others seemed rushed nevertheless it was interesting reading about Aidan and Brandon circumstances as they grow closer. I would have preferred more of Aidan’s point of view as the story was mostly told in Brandon’s.

Brandon and Aidan seemed made for each. I loved both characters personalities throughout. It was an enjoyable read on a subject I was not really familiar with. It was informative and a delight to read although at times I was confused.

Good read.

Reviewer: Shorty

Review: Hmm, I have to say when I first started reading this book I honestly thought the beginning was the author words and not the story so it took me by surprise to realize I was reading the actual story. Armando seemed abrasive and rude to the point of being insulting at times yet tender at others while at the same time coming off as conceited and self-absorbed.

Although I love sarcastic characters this did not strike me as sarcastic at all. I was very glad that Mads seemed to give back the abrasive behavior to Armando rather than not say anything. However if it had been me I would have walked away and never looked back.

I hate to say it but I did not enjoy this book as much as I normally would a paranormal book which shocked me. That was due to the very beginning and Armando’s dialogue. I had to force myself to read the entire book and was gritting my teeth wanting to slap Armando at times.

I’m sorry but I did not like this book, but will give it a 3 for effort.

Reviewer: Lisa

Review: Each book in the Peyton City collection features a different romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. In fact, you will have to. It is the only way not to be confused with this story. Even with time has passed, and I haven’t read the other books in a few weeks I am a bit lost with it. E. A. Reynolds has one amazing imagination. The characters are well written and developed.

Taylan has always been on the side of good but he never fully trusted him Dom. He was in love with Collen but he tried to get messages to him, but Collen never did anything about the danger. Then while meeting one of the cats, he is injured and has lost his memory. He has forgotten that he had in fact been mated to Collen.

Collen did not know what to believe, but he knew that he did love Taylan. He loved his sub but did not think they were mates. He took Taylan home after he was hurt, and kept him by his side. Now he must learn to trust what is in his heart as well as in his mind.

I came across this author some time ago and there is always a twist to the stories. I love the twist and turns to it, but it is so confusing at times especially if you haven’t read the first two books that it does the exact opposite of what one would like. You have the paranormal world mixed in with love, danger, suspense, excitement and some pretty hot action in this book. I enjoyed it enough to know that I will read them over more than once.

Of course I will start with the first book to recap what I do not remember from them.

I would be happy to recommend this book to my friends.

Blurb: Foster brothers Josh and Morgan aren’t related by blood, but they are each other’s only family.

When sharp-tongued Morgan gets thrown out of their latest foster home, protective ‘big brother’ Josh runs after him. At eighteen, they’re utterly alone, penniless and hungry. Morgan is quick to turn to sex work, and despite his hesitation, Josh agrees to act as his bodyguard.

Lusty and shameless, Morgan revels in getting paid to do what he likes best – having as much sex as possible with as many men as possible. Meanwhile, Josh is tortured with jealousy, because he’s been secretly in love with Morgan for years.

It’s not long before the two find trouble with the law. They flee across the country, Morgan plying his trade and Josh struggling with his complicated feelings, until they find work at an expensive sex club. As security, Josh has to use all his strength to protect Morgan from the people who want to use and abuse him – but when a wealthy and sadistic client takes a special liking to Morgan, Josh will be forced to admit his true feelings are anything but brotherly.

Reviewer: Tams

Review: Morgan and Josh become brothers by circumstance at a young age. Barely a few weeks apart in age, and carrying the same last name, the troublesome twosome are placed in foster care at the same home and become instant best friends.

As they grow older they cycle through several foster homes, always managing to stay together. At barely 18 Morgan is caught in a compromising position with their current foster parent’s son, and the two teens wind up homeless. To make some much needed money, Morgan quickly turns to, as he puts it, “the one thing I’m good at”, sex.

Early on Morgan isn’t very smart about choosing his clientele and things get dicey, thankfully Josh had followed Morgan and he quickly comes to Morgan’s aid. Sadly, it puts them into a very bad situation and they have to leave town. On the run from the law with no jobs, no education, nowhere to live, Josh and Morgan make a series of mistakes of epic proportion on their journey to finding happiness.

Let me start by saying this book is very graphic when it comes to the ins and outs of the life of a hustler. Morgan lands a job as a rent boy at a local club in the town they wind up calling home. Josh, unwilling to let Morgan work there on his own, takes on a job as security for the club. It’s a more viable option than picking up strange men in dark alleys, that much is certain. But the life in the club even is dark, dangerous and seedy and the boys still manage to find trouble.

I’m a little torn on the sexual aspect of the story, I don’t think it was the amount of it per say, I understand the character is a nympho. Morgan loves sex and that is the essential makeup of his character. I think it was more what happened at times, the situation. Then there was this constant monologue inside Josh’s head, how much he wanted to be the one Morgan came to, to scratch his almost constant itch.

And yet, Josh stands by and lets Morgan screw random guys in dark alleys, the back of an eighteen wheeler…I think Morgan would have banged a cop in broad daylight in the middle of town square if said cop would have stood still for five minutes. That part of the story just didn’t mesh for me.

That being said, I absolutely loved the fierce loyalty Josh held for Morgan. And I loved how unapologetically gay Morgan was, he owned it, he never tried to hide it, he smiled about it. There was a very raw reality to the writing, I appreciated the author’s approach to keeping the context real and it showed in the overall feel of the story. I also thought the author took the right approach by showing Josh and Morgan having to face the consequences of their actions in the end.

Overall, this was a good read. As I said, be warned the subject matter is a bit dark and gritty and there is a whole lotta of lovin’ goin’ on! Oh, and the author also made sure to differentiate the sex between Morgan and his various partners from the sex between Morgan and Josh, that was a smart move as well. If you like the more emotional, raw, slightly angsty stories with a different kind of character than you are used to, give this one a go.

Blurb: With a summer storm threatening to ruin his Friday afternoon, Asa Burton packs his briefcase and bolts for home before the driving gets dangerous. On the interstate, stuck behind an accident, he regrets his decision until he sees Ford Weston standing along the side of the road talking to a police officer.

Ford Weston can’t believe his luck, bad and good. First his car gets clipped on the tail end of an accident, and than none other than Asa Burton pulls over and offers him a ride home. Coming face-to-face with the biggest regret of his life leaves Ford off-balance. He’d screwed up with Asa years ago. It was his fault the relationship ended.

Asa can’t believe he’s found Ford again, so why is he angry with himself? Could it be because Ford walked out on him without a word seventeen years ago and he did nothing to stop him?

Asa’s sure of only one thing—Fate just handed him the opportunity to win Ford back—and get some answers.

Reviewer: Prime

Review: This is a sweet and rather short story which, above all else, is about love persevering and two old flames reuniting.
Years earlier Ford left Asa heartbroken and had struggled to pick up the pieces after disappearing without a word. Now nearing 40, Ford and Asa meet up again and the attraction is sizzling between them and the sexual tension is palpable.

I really enjoyed the story. I’m finding it difficult to exactly name and describe what made me give this a 3.5. However, I just can’t work it out. As I said this was fun and enjoyable, it just did not dazzle me and pull me in. The only thing I can come up with is that I just couldn’t feel the emotion to connect to the guys. That and I don’t think I was quite convinced by Ford simply running off while he and Asa were first falling in love years before.

Nevertheless, this is well worth the read.

Blurb: Tory Cuthbert is the owner of Misty View Motel, and he’s mostly satisfied with his life. He rarely thinks about the time, fourteen years ago, when a boy he loved—Wheeler Ridley—left him behind. Maury Landrum, one of Tory’s employees, is a tempting morsel, but Tory can’t seem to bring himself to take the next step, even though he knows Maury would be more than willing. Something keeps holding Tory back, and then that something literally shows up on his doorstep with a reservation for the weekend.

For Tory, the past comes rushing back with a vengeance, and to make things worse, Wheeler doesn’t even recognize him. Tory, however, tries to be as professional as possible in order to get through the next two days. But then, Wheeler extends his stay, hits on him, and becomes a pain in the butt. Why now?

Meanwhile, Maury abruptly resigns. Shocked, Tory watches his employee walk away from him, and that wakes him up to what was right under his nose all along. Now, Tory needs to figure out which man he truly wants, not only at the motel, but in his bed and in his heart.

Reviewer: Prime

Review: I’ve read a number of JD Walker’s novellas/shorts and so I’m not afraid to say that I am a fan of both the writing style and the fun that I’ve come to expect. In fact, when I saw this book it was like a knee jerk reaction when I decided that I was going to read it.

This is about Tory, who owns a motel in a small town. He’s still hung-up on his high school crush. Then enter his high school crush… the story is simple and the outcome was charming and a lot better than I had expected. Its fun, it’s sexy and there is all manner of sexual tension, attraction and even possibly what could be classed as a love triangle.

The best part for me is that it’s named after a song! I am a firm believer that all stories have a sound track so not only was the author a draw, but the fact that music is involved was the thing that sealed it for me. I will admit that you don’t need to know anything about the Beatles to read this, the song just lends to the book’s name. However, for anyone who knows the song I guarantee, like me, you will have “Love Me Do” in your head.

Fun, sweet and charming. What more could you want, especially in a short story that is filled with plenty of action. Unfortunately, I just realised that the blurb gives away more of the plot than I think is completely necessary.

Blurb: A relationship-challenged actor unexpectedly finds love in the arms of his childhood best friend.

“Sexiest Man Alive” and Golden Globe winning actor Ethan Baker lights up the screen but fizzles in his personal life. When his latest girlfriend breaks up with him, Ethan turns to his one “forever” person – Jude Harrison. But as Ethan makes the familiar drive to his best friend’s house, an unexpected detour and a bewildering passenger take him through places in time he’d long forgotten. Suddenly Ethan sees Jude’s actions over the years from a different perspective, but it’s his own reaction that’s the biggest surprise.

Review: This is the 2nd edition and has been added to and is 50% longer than the 1st. Ethan is returning home after a week of filming, and his welcome, is his girlfriend breaking up with him. Now he finds himself on his way to the one person who has always been there for him, his ‘forever’ friend Jude, but he ends up taking a side journey that opens his eyes to what he has been missing.

This is a sweet short that has a ‘Christmas Carol’ feel to it. Ethan is a film star, who, after being dumped, goes to the one person who is always there for him, Jude. But on his way to his best friend, he is waylaid by a woman who takes him on a journey of discovery. Ethan visits places in time that have happened to him before, but now, as an outsider he notices things that he never noticed before, and he comes to a startling revelation about himself and his own feelings. 

Ethan is a great character who is just human, he might be rich and famous but he isn’t a diva, he is just ignorant of things around him that don’t concern him and his career. So he is given a wakeup call in the shape of ‘Ginger’, who takes him on a journey so that he can see what is right in front of his eyes and just what he is missing. Jude is an absolute jewel, and as we see him through Ethan’s eyes, as the revelations strike Ethan, we also realise, along with Ethan exactly what he has with Jude for his friend, in the shape of friendship and love.

So if you want a sweet story of revelations, of discovering oneself, and of friends to lovers’ story, of seeing beyond the obvious and a happy ever after, then this is definitely the book for you.

Blurb: Two years ago Shilo’s life was great. Good job, loving husband, great house, and nothing major to worry about. Then his husband vanished without a trace. He still has the job and the house, but no idea why his husband left without even writing a note.

Days before the two-year mark of his husband’s disappearance, he’s nearly killed when his house blows up. Before he can make sense of any of it, Shilo is swept up in a deadly stand-off between two powerful factions of the preternatural world he has always ignored—and his husband right in the middle of it.

Review: This was my first story by Ana that I have read and it wasn’t what I expected at all. I knew that it had a paranormal tone to it but it comes off a bit dark. It was pretty good but confusing at the same time. It got a bit hard to follow in some spots and I can honestly say that I hated part of the ending. I think had it been a tab bit different that it could have had a second book after this. So I wasn’t too happy about that. It does have a happy ending for Shilo and Mazin.

Mazin had disappeared two years ago with no words at all. He had left his things behind except for some pictures. Shilo did everything to try to find his husband but there was no luck. Now his depression has gotten a bit worse for him. Things are just not looking good for him, than his house blows up. Things are looking a bit worse. On top of that, he is kidnapped, hurt, saved by a crazy loon who he is related to through Mazin. At the end there is his husband who just happens not to be human. Talk about a bit of trouble all the way around.

This book like I said is really good, but there is something missing that would have made the story better. It caught my attention from the moment I started reading and I couldn’t put it down till I finished. However I can’t put my finger on it but it left me with a bit of questions. I do wish that the ending hadn’t been the way it was though.

I hope that there is another book that will follow this because I felt like I was left hanging.
