Exercising Restraint
(Different Dynamics 02)
by
Tamir Drake
Pierce may have a crush on Steve, his sweet, funny personal trainer, but he doesn’t plan to act on it. They have a great relationship in the gym but are also friends outside of it, and Pierce has no intention of jeopardizing that. Besides, he may be an omega, but he’s got a good handle on his body’s biology. He’s not worried he’ll accidentally take things too far.
Steve may have a crush on Pierce, his smart and incredibly hot client, but he’s definitely not planning to say anything anytime soon. Pierce can do way better than Steve, and anyway, Pierce is a pretty casual dater. What Steve wants is anything but casual. And that’s not just the alpha in him.
When Pierce goes to Steve’s gym one snowy afternoon to work out, he thinks nothing of the fact that he’s in heat. He’s taken his libido inhibitor and is wearing his odor blocker, so there’s no chance of bothering Steve. Except, then the blocker wears off.
Steve wants nothing more than to keep himself under control, keep himself from doing something Pierce might not want. But Pierce might have something else in mind…
Blurb: Deep undercover to investigate rumors of embezzlement at one of his family’s companies, Jayce Roman finds himself magnetically attracted to his number-one suspect.
Lonely omega Wren Smith is a single father struggling to provide a good life for his hard-of-hearing daughter in an alpha’s world. When his mate Travis Mueller was killed in a tragic accident, the wealthy Mueller family refused to acknowledge Wren or Harriet, perceiving them both as a threat to their “perfect” son’s legacy. Wren is proud of the life he’s built on his own since Travis left them with nothing, and he’s grateful to have a job at a company that’s willing to employ a single-parent omega, even if it means covering for his smarmy boss. But when a young alpha named Jack Coheed shows up amid rumors of a company audit, Wren finds himself at the center of a high-stakes investigation — and the dashing alpha’s attention.
With a newly minted Econ degree and a desire to prove himself to his family, Jayce Roman is finally ready to get serious. He wants more out of life than an endless string of modelesque lovers and meaningless flings, and Wren Smith is more in every way. The husky omega is clever and responsible, and seemingly oblivious to the nerdy charm that has Jayce smitten at first sight. Unfortunately for him, Wren isn’t at all interested in being swept off his feet by a much younger alpha and all signs point to the omega being at the center of the very corruption Jayce was sent to investigate.
When Jayce’s secret identity and Wren’s secrets collide, Jayce will have to prove he can step up and be not only a mate to Wren but a father to his daughter as well. The omega’s dream of a happily ever after might have been shattered, but this alpha is determined to fit the pieces back together.
This romance features a husky omega and contains mature subject material that follows MPREG tropes and may have a rough road leading up to the inevitable happily-ever-after. Adult audiences only.
Review: Jayce goes undercover at Eracorp to figure out who is embezzling money. While there he meets his mate, Wren. Unfortunately things are looking like Wren is the suspect until Jayce discovers the real culprit has been using Wren and plans on framing him.
Blackmail, action, suspense and drama surround this thrilling story as Wren and Jayce grow closer and the culprit tightens the strings on them both. I loved this story from start to finish. The details of Wren’s past are painful. I felt for all Wren had been through.

Blurb: Gray Roman is a CEO on an undercover mission, but the last thing he’s expecting to find in a place like the Cathouse is… a mate?
Dylan doesn’t lead an easy life, but he lives it on his own terms. He attends college by day with dreams of owning his own spa, and at night, he strips off his dignity and dons a less-than-modest uniform to wait tables at the Cathouse. The pay isn’t great and the management is worse, but when a self-described corporate drone shows up to lay the groundwork for a new omega bar across town, things get interesting. “Griff Styles” isn’t a typical alpha, but a night of heat-induced passion makes Dylan wonder if “Griff” is really who he claims to be.
Gray is an alpha who has it all: He’s handsome, driven and set to inherit Roman Enterprises, a multibillion-dollar corporation with a portfolio encompassing everything from security firms to…omega bars, apparently. Sent on an undercover mission as Griff to investigate his father’s latest acquisition, Gray finds himself surrounded by loud-mouthed alphas and scantily clad omegas. Falling for an omega was never in his five-year plan, but what he feels for Dylan is the kind of thing money just can’t buy.
Can an alpha and an omega who are far more interested in their respective careers find love in the unlikeliest of circumstances, or will their prejudices keep their shared attraction undercover?
~Approximately 40,000 words. This is the first book in the Undercover Alphas series and it can be read as a standalone, HEA guaranteed. Undercover Alphas: Gray is a steamy gay romance that contains mature subject material that follows MPREG tropes and may have a rough road leading up to the inevitable happily-ever-after. Adult audiences only.
Review: When Dylan meets Griff at the Cathouse where he works he has no idea who the man really is. The two strike up a conversation and due to Dylan going into heat one thing leads to another. Grey is all business when his father wants him to check out an investment. Gray is not impressed with the place but the cute waiter has him feeling things he never thought he would.
Misunderstandings, jealousies and deceit are all in abundance in this story. I really felt for both Gray and Dylan throughout the story. I was glad everything was straightened out between the two and with Gray and his brothers.

His Wildest Dream
(Portville 03)
by
Xander Collins
Dreams really do come true …
When Daniel goes into a debilitating super-heat while delivering a package to the office of one of the wealthiest men in town, he is horrified. It’s not like any other heat he’s had before, and he finds out it could have been caused by some very compatible pheromones.
Those of billionaire Cameron Styles.
He can’t fathom that Cameron could be interested in a young, poor omega like him, but when he’s asked to move into Cameron’s penthouse condo, he can’t turn down the chance to live out some of his dreams.
Cameron has hidden himself away in his penthouse ever since his omega partner was killed in an accident. He has made sure to not come into contact with anyone who might set off his powerful alpha hormones, or touch his heart.
Until Daniel walks into his office, that is.
After Cameron inhales Daniel’s scent and sees the sweetness in his eyes, he can’t get him out of his mind. But he’s afraid of love and pain, and most of all, of scaring an innocent omega with his depraved desires.
Can two people from different backgrounds let go of the pain in their pasts and come together to find the love they’re searching for?
His Wildest Dream is a Cinderfella-style romance of 46k words. It includes a May/December relationship between a sweet, virgin omega from a poor part of town and a reclusive billionaire single dad, and is served up with a big side of kink.
It is a very sweet, incredibly hot mpreg romance with kids, babies, a lavish wedding, and a super-HEA that will have you smiling from ear to ear.
Blurb: I vow to love you and protect you as my omega, my husband, and my mate. I vow to be a good father to every child born of your womb whether born of my seed or not.
Christian Hawkins, owner and operator of Greasy Fingers Garage in Hollydale is in a rut. His life is spent taking care of his business and looking after his younger brother Kent. The scent of cinnamon is everywhere as the alpha finds himself haunted by the memory of the omega that he ran into…literally…on his way home from work one night.
On the run from the abusive ex who had no desire to be a father to the child he carries, omega Liam Leigh finds himself homeless, hungry, alone, and pregnant in the sweet little town of Hollydale just a couple weeks before Thanksgiving.
Christian and Liam both keep running into each other, as well as an odd little old man with a penchant for appearing just when he’s most needed. But what’s up with the unique golden tipped white feathers that keep popping up?
Review: Each book in The Hollydale Omegas collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order.
Christian and his brother were raised by their omega father and never knew their alpha dad. Their father was one of a kind and showed them how to be men. So they knew what it was like to be poor but well loved. When Christian came across Liam, he knew something was up and knew he had to help. He just got a little help from a angel in disguise. A little old man who seemed to know things before others.
Liam was very pregnant and on the run. His old alpha was an ass who didn’t want anything to do with their baby. He was broke and homeless. Unless helped him he was going to be in dire need, not only him but his child. It came in a sweet alpha and an crazy old man.
I came across this author with the first book in this series and can’t seem to get enough of them. They are funny as hell with a bit of magic thrown in. My attention had been caught from the moment I started reading and kept it all the way to the end. The characters are quite quirky and are a blast to read about.
I can’t wait to get started reading the next book.
Blurb: “I will always love you, both in this life and the next. I vow to love you, honor you, and stay by your side through haunted houses, dead relatives, and random appearances of red croquet balls.”
Milo is a mild-mannered omega who just wants to save his Sweet Ballz, the candy shop he owns on Main St. in Hollydale. Someday maybe he will find an alpha as awesome as the book boyfriends he reads about in the popular books by his favorite author. But for now, Milo is content to be at home curled up with his favorite romance books.
Rafe is a lonely alpha trying to juggle his writing career while settling into the gorgeous old manor he’s just purchased in quaint Hollydale. He just wants to have a home of his own away from the craziness of his rich, socialite family. All Rafe wants is peace and quiet to secretly write his popular romance novels, and to maybe someday find a sweet omega to love like the ones he writes about every night.
Rafe can’t explain the odd happenings in his new home, or the strangely sweet little old lady who comes and goes, even when the doors are locked. Is he being gas-lighted or is there more going on? Rafe and Milo could be perfect for each other, if they can first overcome the red croquet balls that life keeps throwing at them.
This is the first book of The Hollydale Omegas series. This book is 35k and most likely contains an HEA. 18+ readers only please! And yes, this book contains M/PREG, adults adulting in sexy grown-up ways, and way more than an occasional use of potty mouth language.
Review: I came across this author with an email to her book list and I will admit that it was the title to this book that had me wondering. And let me tell you that I am glad to have looked.
At first I was wondering about the alpha and omega part thinking shifters, but the guys never once shifted. So I was second guessing my choice because I usually don’t much care for books that use the same subject in the non shifter way, but I was quite surprised by it, in fact I will definitely put this author on a favorite list to read.
Milo is a sweet omega who just loves to make sweets and read a good romance. His best friend, who is just like his brother invites him out for a drink with a couple of strong alpha’s. To his shock, the sexy alpha looking at him like he was the top meal, also happens to be one of his favorite author of all time. He just had one problem and that was work. Someone was trying to say he stole a recipe from them, and he needed to get his family recipe to prove his innocence.
Rafe is a hot alpha with a great attitude. He was no one to go out and drink but he was loving the night. His heart might be caught but he has a nice surprise in store for himself. A sweet old lady is always showing up and giving him advice, and well if you want to know more read the book.
It was a fascinating book that kept my attention caught the whole time. In fact I read this story twice and can see me reading it more than once. It was the perfect length for me. I loved the characters and their story quite a bit.
I had so much fun reading this book and can not wait to read the next book.
