Title: Hands On Author: A.M. Snead Genre: Erotic Romance Length: Novella (43 pages) Publisher: A.M. Snead (October 27th 2014) Heat Level: Explicit Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥5 Hearts Blurb: During his last night as a custodian in the hospital, Brian Aimes encounters heart surgeon, Donovan Chambers, distraught and half-drunk in his office. In an unexpected turn of events, Brian finds himself in the doctor’s condo for a night of wild, unbridled sex.
‘It was just a one-time thing’ Brian tells his best friend, Eddie, the next morning. ‘He’s from a different world.’
But Brian soon discovers that the doctor’s world isn’t so different or distant from his own after all.
Review: When Brian Aimes walks into Donovan Chambers office, he doesn’t expect to find Doctor Chambers in the office, much last nursing a bottle. And the last thing he expects is to wind up naked in the good doctors arms, on Donavan’s couch while his wife sleeps upstairs. It was Brian’s last night of employment at the hospital, so why not go out with a bang, literally. Not like he will ever see Donovan again. Or so he thought.
Short, Sexy and Steamy, my three favorite colors! I devoured this book in about thirty minutes and was surprised at just how much content was given in so few pages. You really get a feel for what each man is going through in their life, and why they so desperately crave each other. The story alternates points of view as well, which can sometimes be confusing. But I was completely engaged and engrossed the entire time.
It was quite nice seeing each current situation through each mans eyes.
If you are looking for a fast, smexy, well-written novella then you must grab a copy of this one!

Title: Gridiron Cage Series: The Master & Servant, # 2 Author: Crawford Rhine Genre: BDSM/Erotic Romance Length: Novel (213 pages) Publisher: Extasy Books (January 1st, 2015) Heat Level: Explicit Heart Rating: ♥♥♥3Hearts Blurb: A marked man enters The Service wanting adventure and to find love and is assigned to a famous football player infamous for his partying.
Brand is right-out-of-school young when he enters The Service, maybe too young. He is assigned to Mike Dobrogost, a cocky NFL football player with the New England Patriots. Gost, as everyone calls his new Master, is famous for his partying and sexual exploitation. Not exactly the Master that Brand had hoped for—one that would worship him and one with whom he might fall in love.
Further complicating matters is that Gost is already used to having a Servant, because Brand is not the only Servant in his employ.
Review: It’s Brand’s first assignment in the service and he’s given to Mike Dobrogost, Gost. An NFL football player with the New England Patriots who already has another servant named Mark. Mike seems very immature and loves to party. Brand takes it all in stride and does what he’s told.
I didn’t like the fact that Mike shares Brand with other players without asking if he’s o.k. with it. After all he’s Mike’s servant not everyone else’s. Mark and Brand seemed to hit off well, which was a good thing in my opinion. The story has a lot of sex in it with different people.
Brand gets to go to every game with his Master and also has to participate with the other servants. Although well written I think half the book is sex scenes. I would have preferred more story than sex scenes myself.
It was an o.k. read.

Title: Obsession Series: Fever Dreams, # 3 Author: Derek Adams Genre: Erotic Romance/ Contemporary Length: Short Story (49 Pages) Publisher: Extasy Books (December 15, 2014) Heat Level: Moderate to Explicit Heart Rating: ♥♥♥3Hearts Blurb: When a man’s long-suppressed passion is aroused, can anything stand in its way?
Robert Fenwick has successfully banished all thoughts of passion from his life—or so it would appear until a chance encounter with handsome, young Marc Prentice turns his world upside down. Despite the gap in their ages, they seem perfectly matched.
However, in order to experience the freedom and sexual fulfillment that Marc offers, Robert must first break away from everything that currently defines his outwardly successful life.
Review: When Robert stopped to help a young man, he didn’t know his life would change. His marriage has not been what a marriage should be and he knew that someday it would have to stop. He knew the secrets his wife hid from him, but she did not know his. Now he helps Marcand realizes that it might just be time.
It was a cute story but not for me. I don’t like the idea of cheating even if your marriage is not a true marriage. When one stands up and says I do, then if you want to be with someone else that marriage should end. Other than that little bit I didn’t like, the story itself was very hot. You can see the tenderness between the two men, even though Robert just comes off as an ass at first.
I loved Marc’s spirit and the fact that he seemed like an over the mountain cheerful type. I got a big kick out of him. Altogether though the story just didn’t do what it should have for me to truly love it. It was well written and the sex between them was extremely hot.
Title: My Bodyguard Series: N/A Author: Derek Adams Genre: Contemporary/Erotica Length: Short Story (38 Pages) Publisher: MLR Press (November 28, 2014) Heat Level: Explicit Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥4Hearts Blurb: Jeff’s desire to go to college and live a normal life is undermined by his crime boss father’s insistence that he be accompanied at all times by a bodyguard.
Jeff does his best to despise Vic Torres, but his disdain is gradually turned to desire by the man’s quiet charm and his undeniable sex appeal. Try as he might, Jeff can’t breach the barricades Vic has erected between them until one fateful night when their quiet world is rocked by violence.
Reviewer: Lisa Review: This was a fascinating story if not a bit hard to believe. Oh not the fact that they wanted each other, but the fact that Jeff’s father was the leader of an organized crime syndicate. More than likely if his father found out they would be killed. So it tells how strong they are to even attempt this. I did love it though. Jeff was off to college and his father sends him with a bodyguard. Now Jeff was an ass to Vic, but there was a lot of passion between them. Also a lot of danger coming for Jeff. It was up to Vic to protect the man he has fallen in love with.
There was so much story put into such a dynamic short story. I had a blast reading it and look forward to more by Derek. I was impressed with the way Vic stood up in the end and proved that he could protect the man. However, in the beginning, he acts like a scared little puppy and that pretty much showed him different in my eyes so I was glad that he showed his balls in the end. Well he showed them in more ways than one. The sex between them is hot and could set the sheets on fire. I wished that it had been longer because it left me wanting more. I want to see where these two gorgeous men go in the future.
I would recommend reading this little hot and explosive story. You won’t regret it. It is a great story to read when you are just wanting to take a break from a long day at work.

Title: A Thing for Cops Series: N/A Author: Roland Graeme Genre: Contemporary/CopKink Length: Novel (219 pages) Publisher: eXtasy Books (August 7th, 2014) Heat Level: Explicit Heart Rating: ♥♥2Hearts Blurb: Jim Melton has had “a thing for cops” ever since he can remember. So it is only natural that be becomes a police officer himself. As a gay cop, Jim soon realizes that he belongs to a subculture within the law enforcement subculture. His many erotic adventures with both civilians and his fellow cops give new meaning to the phrase, “to protect and serve.”
ISBN: 9781771118576 Product Link: http://www.extasybooks.com/roland-graeme/a-thing-for-cops/ Reviewer: Gigi Review: So Jim likes cops so much he becomes one. He quickly finds a gay cop sub culture and becomes initiated through many tiring repetitive erotic adventures.
The plot is not as thick as all the phallic references I read, but I think this is what most expect for jerk-off material. In that sense, rating it as masturbatory reading, I would still only rate this a 2. The scenes had some fun kink, but the relentless sexual thesaurus became tiring.
Within the opening gambit of one scene, I read the phallic descriptions, fuck stick, prick, cock, aching tool, pouting piss slit, glistening tool, and fuck piston, drooling piss slit, on and on…. The dialogue was amazing, “Your cock really feels good in me. Are you feeling as good as I am?” …..” Hell, yeah.” Add new names, multiple partners and repeat.
Eventually, Jim pairs up, and he and his partner have frequent sex parties, threesomes, and foursomes with other cops to celebrate their anniversary, monthly. Like I said, it’s jerk-off material with a few mildly erotic scenes, without a plot, and meant for the porn industry.

Blurb: In the Land of Enchantment, New Mexico, lives a man who has secrets. Levi Kape watches people at a bar nightly, writing things in his notebook and trying to blend in with the locals. His secrets keep him from getting close to anyone until Bobby Dawes comes off the road after a long haul in his 18-wheeler. After getting to know Bobby, he realizes he’d never been close to anyone. That was about to change.
Levi can’t settle down and not because he doesn’t want to, but because it could endanger his life. Bobby is a gentle, loving and strong man who doesn’t do commitment. He’s also a man who Levi wants more than anything, including his own safety.
Danger causes Levi to leave but he can’t forget the truck driver that drove into his life, changing everything. When Levi leaves, Bobby goes back onto the road, trying to forget the “Golden God” he’d fallen for, but with some help from friends with connections to dark people and places, Bobby finds his man and swears never to let him go again.
Can they save each other not only from the men who want Levi dead but from years of never seeking or finding the love they found in one another? Will the ultimate betrayal cost them the trust they need to make it work between them? Can Bobby save him, or be lost in a dark world alone
Review: This is the first book in this series and way to go! I was so happy to get to see some of my favorite characters from the Honkey Tonk Series. I loved to get to see more of Hunter, Ethan, and Carter.
Don’t worry if you haven’t read Honky Tonk because this stands alone perfectly. I do have to say I loved how Rain Carrington brought back a few of my favorites, but they didn’t upstage the new characters at all.
Road Runner is about Bobby and Levi. Bobby is an over the road truck-driver and grew up with most of the men in this town. Bobby goes to the Honky Tonk to see Carter Ethan and Hunter when he comes into town. He sees a cute guy that is new and Ethan goes into matchmaker mode.
Levi is new in town. He has a bit of crush on Hunter but knew he didn’t stand a chance with Ethan and Carter is straight. The minute he sees Bobby he is in lust. He likes the big brutish looking men. Levi has many secrets that could put Bobby and the town in danger.
I looooved this book. I never thought I’d like a character as much as Ethan, Rebel or Binks (the last two are from Rain’s other series Apishpa Creek) but I fell in love with Levi right off the bat. He may be subbish but he sure is a spitfire. I thought I liked big brutish guys too but I find myself drawn to smaller, subbish, yet bossy and smart characters. Levi is all of that and more.
I actually loved Bobby, too. He is everyone’s dream. Big, strong, handsome and a protector with a gentle heart.
I have to say the setting is a big part of this story and the way the author described things I could just envision all the environments, sights, sounds, and smells. I want to go to New Mexico now just to see if it’s this beautiful!
The story is intriguing as the characters. I thought I had it figured out pretty quick, but was I off the mark by a long shot. There were so many twists and turns. The ending shocked me a couple of times, but I was satisfied with the outcome. There lots of mystery and intrigue. The sex is also very hot. I rate it explicit since there is a lot of sex, but it’s not overly raunchy or anything like that. It’s very hot, and very sensual.
There is a little light BDSM, but no whipping or Masochism or anything like that and the D’s thing isn’t predominant. The relationship and sex between Levi and Bobby is absolutely steamy and sensual.
If you like big, strong brutish me with a gentle side, Knights in shining armor, brains winning over brawn, truck drivers, writers, interracial relationships, mystery and intrigue and some smoking hot mansex this is for you.
I also recommend you check out the Honky Tonk Series as well. You won’t be sorry! I can’t wait for the next one!
Title: Beneath the Stain – Part 4 Author: Amy Lane Genre: Contemporary/ Erotic Romance Length: Serial (85 pages) Publisher: Dreamspinner Press (September 19th 2014) Heat Level: Moderate Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥ 5 Hearts Reviewer: Tams Blurb: Mackey’s fragile recovery from his bout with self-destruction is complicated even further by his feelings for Trav—and Trav’s feelings back. Trav is older, and he should know better, but now that Mackey is drug-free and conquering his demons, all he can see is the stunning, brilliant man who existed under the stain of pain and excess.
Trav and Mackey struggle to find a balance between Mackey’s recovery and their growing attraction. Trav decides to make a rare leap of faith—but can Mackey find enough faith in himself to make it through life in the spotlight and a visit to the past that almost destroyed him?
Review: I believe this installment in this serial is what one would call, the calm before the storm.
Mackey has made it out of rehab and is finally back home with his family, and Trav. Though Trav is wary of entering into a relationship with the younger and volatile musician, the attraction they have to each other will not be denied. Trav concedes that he will try to be more than friends and manager for Mackey, but they are going to take it slow. Trav courts Mackey and shows him that there is more to life than sex, drugs and rock & roll. There is love, tenderness, passion and control.
Sad news from home almost sends Mackey into a tailspin, but Trav is there by his side, steadfast and strong, helping Mackey come to terms with it in his own way. But there is something inside of Mackey that is slightly broken, a piece of his soul that can only be tamed with touch of another man. He can see the truth in what Trav is saying that they need to date and be boyfriends for a while before they throw sex into the mix, especially with Mackey still being raw from rehab.
But there is a thirst deep down inside Mackey that can only be quenched with Trav taking every part of him and making him his, completely.
Compared to the other parts of this saga to date, this was a very timid installment. It was nice for a change though, to see Mackey being loved and cherished by Trav. The inner workings of their relationship are quite different and I always wonder how it will play out on paper. Trav is obviously Mackey’s strength, and it was a joy to see him lose that control he keeps such a tight hold on for a change. I fear though, that there are going to be surmountable roadblocks ahead for these two, which is just how Lane rolls.
I’m also loving the ‘bonus scenes’ that come with each part of the serial. With each one we get a deeper look into the mindset of certain secondary characters, this time around it was from Blake’s POV. Oh boy, now that could be a juicy storyline indeed! Can’t say more, you’ll have to grab a copy and read for yourself. I have to say that I love this hard-core story, and I look forward to the next part each week. If you haven’t read any yet, definitely get caught up, but start with part 1.

Title: A Sailor’s Seduction Author: Lisa A. Adams Genre: Contemporary Length: Short (26 pages) ISBN: 9781631052217 Publisher: Secret Cravings Publishing (June 7th, 2014) Heat Level: Moderate Heart Rating: ♥♥2.5 Hearts Reviewer: Anna Blurb: Seaman Thomas Musak has just arrived in San Diego to begin training in his new occupation. However, he realizes soon enough that training a new partner to share his rack is more fun than he ever could have imagined.
Seaman Jacob Lyriceman has just flunked out of Nuke school, and is now passing the time before his next big adventure begins. Becoming a Navy Seal requires stamina and a sense of adventure. Both of these characteristics make him irresistible to many. But, Thomas has the one thing he truly desires.
Review: Adams introduces us to Thomas as he flies to San Diego to start “A” school. Fresh out of boot camp and trying to get as far away from Army territory, Thomas soon meets Jacob, the only other recruit from their class. They quickly become aware of the attraction that connects them, deciding to spend the rest of the week enjoying the alone time they have left.
While this is not an amazing story (there are many and glaring plot holes and mistakes), nothing bad can be said of Adams’ writing. The author is quick to engage the reader, if not for the story itself than for the amazing description of the sex scene. That being said, I give 2.5 Hearts to this book, because I feel that while it’s not good (it’s not bad either), the writing really was the breaking point for me.
Blurb: DIGITAL ORIGINAL 62-page gay erotic graphic novel! “FAST FRIENDS is like a classic gay short novel executed entirely in pictures and without words–the silence makes the story even more seductive. It’s pulp fiction transformed into art: erotic, real and surprisingly tender. People often forget that genitals, even male genitals, can connect to the heart. A lovely piece of work.” — Christopher Bram, author of *Gods and Monsters* and *Eminent Outlaws: The Gay Writers Who Changed America*
Review: FAST FRIENDS is just another of Dale Lazarov’s beautiful masterpieces, once again in collaboration with illustrator Michael Broderick. It tells the story of two ordinary men in unhappy “relationships”, who meet and, as the title says, become fast friends. Soon after, they can’t resist the pull and give in to their attraction, changing each other’s lives. And the genius of this story is that not a single word is used.
The reader is guided only by Broderick’s subtle and powerful creations, leaving details such as names and conversations, to the reader’s imagination. Each panel is detailed to perfection to make the characters seem life-like, their facial expressions and actions perfectly in tune. One example is the first and last sex scenes. While the first scene is drawn in a way that allows the reader to immediately see that something is wrong, the last one is intimate, sexy and touching.
Lazarov and Broderick’s FAST FRIENDS is definitely worth buying.
Title: Tales of a Prison Bitch Series: N/A Author: Ethan Stone Genre: Erotic/ Thriller/ Crime Length: Novella (64 pages) Publisher: Wilde City Press (August 6th, 2014) Heat Level: Explicit Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥5Hearts Blurb: Thomas Grayson is young, handsome and in prison. If he wants to survive, he only has one choice—find someone who will take care of him. Neil Booker is perfect for the job, but Grayson must be willing to pay the price.
Grayson has never been with a man and isn’t thrilled about being a prison bitch but he’d rather be with Booker than be abused by other convicts. He takes to it easier than expected and actually enjoys his time with Booker.
The roles are changed when Booker is paroled and Grayson gets his own boytoy. However, he can’t forget about Booker, not even when he finally goes home. Product Link: http://www.wildecity.com/books/gay-erotica/tales-of-a-prison-bitch/#.VAovCGPdaiw ISBN: 978-1-925180-31-2 Reviewer: Shorty
Review: 22-year-old handsome Thomas Grayson is sentenced to 5 years in prison for trying to kill the guy his girlfriend was sleeping with. In order to survive he gets the protection of sexy Niel Booker. They settle into their lives and things are going great until Booker is transferred.
Once Grayson is released from prison, he works for his brother. Six months later Booker shows up at his home and confesses that he’s thought about Grayson all the time and wants to be with him. Some very hot and heavy sex is all throughout this wonderfully written story.
An interesting and impressive story about what happens between inmates. Great read.
Title: Vinny, Porn Star Series: Working Boys, #3 Author: J.P. Barnaby Genre: Erotica/ BDSM Length: Novella (56 pages) Publisher: Wild City Press (August 27th 2014) Heat Level: Explicit Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥ 5 hearts Reviewer: Tams Blurb: Vinny is just your typical all-around average guy, well, except for the leather and the floggers, oh and maybe that little room at the back of his house where he likes to take a guy and strap his ass before he before he nails him. Well, maybe Vinny isn’t so average. At least, that’s what Angel thinks. You see, Angel got himself into a bit of trouble by scheduling a fetish shoot with The Sounding Board when he’s never even been tied up.
Who better to show him the ropes than professional fetish model, Vinny D’Forino? The answer will bring him to his knees.
Review: Vinny D’Forino is a porn star with a few kinks. His particular twist is BDSM. He craves the control and submissive nature of another man, who being a Dom, awards him. And he doesn’t kiss, ever. His reputation precedes him in the business, perhaps because he doesn’t take from the unwilling and there are limits to his domination. When his friend and producer calls in a favour, Vinny is hesitant at first, but finally agrees to mentor a fresh new face to the business that may have gotten in over his head.
Angel has been fantasizing to the video version of Vinny for years. He signs up for a BDSM shoot through a rival company, not fully understanding what he’s getting himself into. Thankfully, Vinny takes on the challenge to show him the ropes, pun intended! The absolute submissive nature of Angel throws Vinny for a loop, but he refuses to budge on a previous promise to himself not to take on another Sub, not to open up or care. When Angel goes through with the shoot anyways and is worse for the wear afterwards, all bets are off.
What I enjoyed about this story to spite the more hardcore aspect of the BDSM genre was the insight into the mind of the Dom, which is solely based on how Barnaby wrote him. I liked how even though Angel didn’t know exactly what he was getting into with the shoot, Vinny explained every little detail of what they were doing when they were together. The only time there was any type of pain involved wasn’t even described, it was just spoken of toward the end.
I can’t wait to see where Barnaby takes these two characters with future installments. They are very yin/yang in their personalities. And Angel may be a natural submissive, but he definitely has a mind of his own, so it was a lot of fun watching the personality clashes and how each man reacted to the other in those situations. I cringed occasionally when Vinny really got into his role as a Dom, but the sex was fucking outstanding, and Angel seemed to love every second of it!
Of course, BDSM fans will love this one, but I think those who sit on the fence will enjoy this title as well. Like I said, it’s not hardcore or crossing over into abuse or pain, but the dominate and submissive roles are clearly lined out and delved into… in an oddly sexy way.

Blurb: Brokenhearted after a stolen kiss in high school, a new college graduate must overcome years of bitterness to save the now desolate young man who once shattered his heart.
Logan only wanted one thing in his life, Christian, his childhood friend. But a stolen kiss on graduation night broke Logan’s heart and destroyed the special friendship they shared. Now four years later, Logan returns to his family in Santa Cruz on the verge of a new life to find Christian on a treacherous, lonely path of booze and drugs, harboring painful secrets. Only Logan’s love and acceptance can lead Christian back from the brink of destruction. Can Logan put aside old grudges to save the young man who shattered his heart and in return, accept the love he’s craved?
Review: This is the first book of Christie’s that I have read and I can tell you that it will tear you up and make you feel something you have not felt in a long time. There are stories out there that will break your heart when you read it and this was one of them. To feel the pain that each one of these guys felt makes me wonder how anyone can start over. Logan and Christian have known each other since grade school. There was one secret that Logan had never told Christian and that was the fact that he loves him. That he was in love with him. On graduation night, he tells Christian and kisses him. Only Christian reacted almost violently. It had hurt Logan more than anyone would know. Nearly destroyed him to the point of no return.
Christian has always hated what he had done to Logan on the night of graduation. The problem was for over two years he has worked with his band, drank, and was doing some hard-core drugs. To the point that friends were thinking that he was going to overdose one day. There are things that he is hiding from everyone and instead of getting help. He was substituting with drugs and alcohol. It had been four years since he had seen Logan after breaking his heart. Telling Logan that he never wanted to see or hear from him again. A friendship destroyed by the move of a young man in love.
Now Logan was back and was trying desperately not to see Christian. He figured Christian still hated him and really did not want to get into that again. He found out though that Christian’s father had passed away two years ago around the time that Christian had quit college and started using. It broke his heart to find out this. However when they come across each other again it was Christian that makes the first move. A move that will change their lives forever. However, Logan knew that if Christian did not stop using there was nothing he could do but leave once more. Then one night Logan finds out the truth that Christian’s mom had been hiding from all of them. It almost causes Logan to lose Christian forever.
This story shows you what can happen when someone you love is hooked on drugs. That the only one to help them is their selves. They have to admit that they are addicts and seek help. Almost losing his life and Logan would be the one reason Christian seeks help, but in truth, one must do it for themselves. You can’t do something for someone else. It just doesn’t work like that. I would recommend reading this story, but I must warn you that it will make you cry in parts and will tear you up on others. This story will give you sexy men, pain filled days, tender story, and lots of love. It did catch my attention from the start and kept it all the way to the end. I didn’t know what the story would be like till I read it. It comes off more real than a lot of other stories do.
Title: Dangerously Happy Series: N/A Author: Varian Krylov Genre: Contemporary/Erotica/BDSM Length: Novel (244 Pages) ISBN: B00KFLTOV0 Publisher: Varian Krylov (May 18th, 2014) Heat Level: Explicit Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥4.5Hearts Blurb: Aidan has always played it safe. Instead of pursuing his dream of creating innovative music that makes his soul sing, he settled for a degree in software, a job in a cubicle, and a spot in a generic band with his buddies.
And he’s always been straight. But when he’s seduced by magnetic local literary luminary Dario, Aidan must decide whether to keep playing it safe, or succumb to a ravenous passion and a nourishing love unlike anything he’s experienced before. Will he find the courage to go after real happiness if it means admitting he’s in love with a man?
Their journey together isn’t easy. Sometimes it isn’t safe. Even if Aidan has the courage to admit he’s in love with Dario, can he endure the repercussions of the traumatic event in Dario’s past? Product Link: http://www.amazon.com/Dangerously-Happy-Varian-Krylov-ebook/dp/B00KFLTOV0 Reviewer: Tootsie Review: Varian Krylov is a new author to me, but one that I am very happy to have discovered. In this release of Dangerously Happy, she brings us a story that is not necessarily a new storyline but she has put a new twist on it that will pull you in and keep you glued to the pages. It is a dark read at times, the sexual content is very explicit, but it fits the story and will have you completely captivated.
Lets meet Aidan – single due to a recent break-up with his long-term girlfriend, plays the guitar and sings in a band, very handsome but doesn’t seem to know it himself. Not really happy in his day-to-day job but is good at his job. Trying to pacify his father, he chose a business degree instead of music, which was his lifeline. He belongs to a small time band that practises a few nights a week at a friend’s loft and performs gigs on the weekends. He has never considered himself anything other than a straight male. He’s kind of a loner sometimes, doesn’t feel he really fits in with the other guys in the band. The guys, almost always, stay after practise to smoke weed and tell tales about their women experiences from the nights before. Aidan stays on occasion, falling in line with his buddies, but most of them appear immature. After 10 years of just playing as if they have a band, Aidan wants to have one for real.
Now, let’s meet Dario. Charismatic, charming, good-looking, confidant or so he appears to those in his presence. He has a loft with a large space that he lets different people occupy almost nightly, whether it be artists or bands. What he doesn’t let others see is he is a damaged soul. He has some very traumatic experiences from his past that he still has not completely gotten over. He portrays someone who has everything and not afraid to go after what he doesn’t. Everyone knows he is gay, it’s not a secret, and no one seems to be bothered by it. He is a very generous man, always giving to others.
What you will learn about him as you read on is he is also scared. At his core, he feels weak and frightened. For three years, he has watched Aidan from afar. He notices everything about him, is intrigued by him, yet still keeps his distance. He only acknowledges him in general conversation with occasional hello’s and good-bye’s. To Aidan, Dario doesn’t even see him and while he doesn’t understand why this should bother him, he just knows that it does. How will Aidan react when Dario reveals his interest? Aidan has never had an interest in another man, until now. There will be many truths exposed, feelings uncovered, but will they admit these revelations, to not only each other, but also everyone else?
Varian Krylov has written a deep and sometimes dark story that will have you cringing at times but needing more. Everything, however, is not all doom and gloom. She will expose sides to her characters that bring out the best in them. She exposes their inner weaknesses but shows their strengths, as well. This is a long novel that has many twists and turns. You will be hooked from the beginning and even though the road sometimes is bumpy, you grab on for the ride. Ms. Krylov does not shy away from exposing scenes that sometimes are hard to read. She will also expose the caring, the sensual, and sexual sides to her characters. She doesn’t rush them into sex. She gives them time to come to terms with new developments they are experiencing. When they feel they are ready to be intimate with each other, you are ready also for them to take it to the next level.
As Aidan and Dario explore their sexual relations, not only are they breathless, but you will be too. As I stated earlier, this author does not skimp with the sexual content. Most always, it is very explicit, so if this is not your thing, you have been warned. However, if you love not having to guess or create your own scenes as you read, you will be in awe of this story. I think the author done an incredible job of showing many sides to a relationship, one where communication is as important as the physical acts. The story continues to move forward, never stilted or stagnant. As Aidan and Dario explore and experience many levels, they form a trust and a bond that will be hard to break. The content is expressive, but it is addictive and will leave you only wanting more. I will be exploring many more books by Ms. Krylov in the future.

GWM Wanted
by
Amanda Young
Mark is still deeply in love with Sam, his partner of 15 years. He’s perfectly happy with their relationship, even if their sex life has grown a little stale lately. But when he begins to notice Sam’s gaze wandering toward other men, he fears that his younger lover may be losing interest in him.
Then Sam suddenly suggests they broaden their sexual horizons by inviting a third man into their bedroom. And Mark’s fears become almost certainty. He reluctantly agrees, willing to do whatever it takes to hold onto Sam. He’s willing to share his husband’s body if he must, so long as he retains his heart.
Together, they answer an ad in an online advertisement. The other man seems to be just what they’re looking for — handsome, hung, and only interested in no-strings-attached fun. But once the excitement begins they find out they’ve made a terrible mistake.
Title: In Sickness and In Health Series: A Jarhead Story Author: Sean Michael Genre: Erotic Romance/Contemporary Length: Novella (80 Pages) ISBN: 978-1-61040-747-2 Publisher: Torquere Books (April 29th, 2014) Heat Level: Explicit Heart Rating: ♥♥♥3Hearts Reviewer: Lisa Blurb: The Jarheads back in a new adventure–a journey through sickness and health with Rock, Rig, and Dick, who stand by their man, come what may, no matter what they come down with. Colds and flu are no match for the Jarheads, who know that cold medicine’s great in its place, but the one sure cure for what ails them is good old sexual healing
Review:This is one of the Jarhead stories and they should be read in order. It would be easier to figure out who everyone is. It is a delightful story with lots of sex. It involves three very hot and sexy men.
Dick and Rock are two very hot marines and Rig is one sexy doctor. You can tell with the first paragraph exactly what type of story this is. Majorly hot is just one word for it.
Rig comes home to find his two hot and sexy men sick with the flu. After working hard at the hospital with sick patients, he comes home to take care of his very sexy men. He is really good at taking care of them, but what happens when the doc himself gets sick. As most of you know doc’s make the worst patients. This book shows how three men love one another and take care of each other. They show that they would do anything to keep each other safe and happy.
It is a pretty good book and I love the humorous parts to it. However, there wasn’t really much of a story line other than the fact that they stand by each other when they get sick. It shows how three men can make a true relationship work. It also has its kinky factor that always makes for an interesting twist.
Blurb: When Dr. Seth Coleman catches the gaze of handsome conference speaker, Carson Randall, he is intrigued. After the speech, Carson introduces himself and hands him his business card. Seth discovers the card holds more than Carson Randall’s information; on it Carson has written his room number.
For as long as Seth can remember, he has focused his attention on being a doctor. But now he has the chance to focus on his own needs. Will Seth take the safe route and socialize with his co-workers at the conference or will he accept the handsome speaker’s invitation?
Review: Seth is a young doctor that catches the attention of the much sought after conference speaker, Carson Randall. Carson seeks the shy Seth out after the conference and his card holds more than his business information. On the back is his room number.
I found this story very hot and sexy. The story is very well written and complete for a short story. I rarely give such a short story 5 stars but the end left me in surprise. Way to go Nikka! I absolutely loved it.
I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a short story to fill in a half hour or so. If you like hot young doctors, sexy conference speakers, a little mild bondage, and some hot mansex with a surprise ending this is for you.

Blurb: This is book one in the Beer and Clay series
Sometimes unpredictable is exactly what’s needed, but can Corner Pub owner Damon convince shy Thursday night regular Toby of that?
Damon loves his life—his bar, his employees and his beer. He especially loves Thursdays. That’s when the mysterious little redhead dances into his bar, drinks two honey wheat brews, and flits right back out.
Toby’s comfortable. He has a good job, great friends, and he is paid to do what he loves—sculpt. His life is great, if a little predictable. And if he secretly wears a plug to Corner Pub every Thursday, well…that’s nobody’s business but his.
But when Toby meets Damon, his predictable little life flies right out the window. Damon shows him the big, wide world of the Dom/sub lifestyle, plugs and piercings, and teaches him that maybe, unpredictable is exactly what Toby needed all along. Purchase Link: https://www.totallybound.com/malting Review: Enthralling, interesting, and erotic as hell, this novella is deliciously written. Sean Michael is not afraid to go there and bring you into the worlds he writes. I love his work.
Damon knows how to get under people’s skin and into their minds. He runs and owns the Pub. And as works his job, he keeps an eye on Toby a regular. Toby is one of those regular people who has almost nothing special going on for him. But when he meets Damon, he cannot help the range of emotions that flow through him.
Hot sexy and erotic, I love everything about this book. The story is hot and solid. The way Damon and Toby interact makes me want to know them more. And just when I think I know nothing about these two, I find out it is in a series. I cannot wait to start reading the next book. It is so worth the read.
Blurb: For most people, a life full of sex and debauchery sounds like a dream, but for gay porn star Logan Williams, who lives it, it’s nothing but a nightmare. Left disillusioned and empty by “living the dream,” Logan travels to an exclusive beachside resort to recharge and reevaluate his life. He expects to do this in solitude—instead, he finds RJ Spencer, and their immediate connection fills all of Logan’s empty spaces. But when the vacation ends, so does the fantasy life Logan created for himself and RJ, and he doesn’t think he can return to his empty life without RJ at his side
Review: Logan is a porn star, but very unhappy with his life. He longs to be able to find someone to make him actually feel again. His life seems to be robotic or n autopilot and unfulfilling. He decides to take a holiday to see if he can just clear his head and get away from work and hook-ups. He has no intention of having sex, just wanting to get away from it all. He finds a gay friendly resort and on the bus to the secluded hideaway meets a few new friends.
I really, really liked this book a lot. When I started reading and saw all the sex from the porn work, I sighed thinking the book would be very pornish. I was definitely wrong. Don’t get me wrong I do like some porn style sex but this book wasn’t one of those. I found the story full of emotion. I loved how Logon and R.J. evolved and I will say this story isn’t predictable. At a few stages, I thought I knew what was next but was fooled. The apex of the story had me dropping my jaw and my heart thudding with one of those ‘I didn’t see that coming moments’.
If you like porn stars, gay resorts, sexy, hot gay romance with a surprising twist but a satisfying ending this is for you!
Title: The Wallbanger Series: Cock and Tails, Book 1 Author: Renee George Genre: Gay Erotic Romance Length: Short Story (37 Pages) Publisher: RTN Publishing (April 1st, 2014) Heat Level: Explicit Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥3.5Hearts Reviewer: Lisa Blurb: When mixology meets biology, its pure chemistry!
To celebrate his 45th birthday, Dr. Harvey Grace agrees to go on a blind date at a popular gay sports bar, The Other Team. His date turns out to be the bar’s owner–gorgeous 32-year-old Jay Lincoln. Their attraction is immediate and hot as wildfire. Harvey begins to believe that Jay might well be “the One,” but is the younger man serious about finding Mr. Right…or is he looking for Mr. Right Now? Purchase Link: http://www.amazon.com/The-Wallbanger-CockTails-Renee-George-ebook/dp/B00JD1PL92 Review: I hated that this story was so short and just left me hanging. It was that good, believe me. It gives you a wonderful beginning.
Dr. Harvey Grace had agreed to a blind date, his date knew what he looked like but he had no idea what Jay looked like. The only thing he knew was that Jay was younger than he was. It was not only his first date with him, but also his birthday. What a way to spend your birthday, it is so very hot.
Jay Lincoln was a gorgeous younger man who at first sight looked like he was just a bartender. What Harvey hadn’t realized was Jay was also the owner of the gay sports bar. They had little bits of a problem when Harvey’s ex-boyfriend shows up, but after that, the night just held lots of promise. These two heat up the room and you can tell that they can easily fall in love with each other.
I loved this story, but as I said, it left me hanging. I cannot wait to hear more about Harvey and Jay. I want to know where their future goes. It is a really great story, told with the perfect tone. I can’t wait for the next book.
