Just as he’s about to run, he meets Vespar and experiences an instant attraction. When Vespar tells him he’s in danger and offers to protect him, Marc wants to believe him. But he’s been hunted before, and this time he isn’t sure he’ll get away. Especially when he finds out he is Vespar’s target.

Reviewer: Shorty 

Review: Vespar, an assassin for hire, takes on a job. He has struggled with his urge to kill. But upon meeting his target the feeling lessens. As he gets to know Marcolm he becomes infatuated with him to the point he cannot do what he was hired for. 

I really enjoyed this story. Vespar was intent and serious. I loved how well equipped he was in dealing with certain things that come up throughout the story. Marc was a little too trusting considering people were out to kill him. I felt considering who his dad was he would have been a bit more cautious. 

I loved the quick escapes and thinking Vespar did when confronted with danger. The main thing that threw me was the end. I did not understand how one could make the past different from what happened. Wouldn’t that mean that Marc and Vespar’s lives would have been different than what they were? 

Other than that I loved everything else. The romance, tension, adventure and mystery were awesome. This is a great read.

Blurb: Former US Marine John Ving hates everything about holiday displays: they’re tacky, they waste energy, and they’re an eyesore. So what does his new neighbor do? He sets up the holiday spectacle from hell, and he doesn’t seem to care which holiday—he has a menorah, a baby Jesus, a Santa, and everything in between. Not to mention it’s swathed in enough lights his house is probably visible from space.

High-school teacher Kaden loves the holidays, and huge light displays on his lawn make his heart glow. He’d love to share some cheer—and maybe some kinky fun—with his smoking hot neighbor John. Odd things start to happen to his displays and just as he begins to think life is going his way, with the holidays and with John, a Grinch destroys everything.

It’s gonna take the display-hating John to set things right—and what he has planned might blow Kaden’s mind.

Review: Twelve days of Christmas and my true love gave to me, well you will just have to read this book to get that naughty idea.  John hates anything holiday but he loves family.  Then he meets his sexy neighbor who just so happens to love Christmas.

I was definitely not ready for this one, but damn it was cute.  I especially liked the kids and well you will see.  You cannot really go into detail about these stories without giving them away.  I got a kick out of it and definitely would read it next Christmas. 

It is a very quirky and fun story.

Finding His Home

(Men of Falcon Pointe 02)
by

Thianna Durston

Sebastien Cather moves to Falcon Pointe with a dream to live life his way. Offered a room at 959 Brenton Street, he discovers how liberating it can feel to live among accepting people, especially in a household where they practice loving physical discipline. And he quickly gains a boyfriend in Avery, a fellow student. Unfortunately Avery isn’t his first choice.

Tensions rise as his roommates’ wedding is threatened and his present and past lives clash. Outed by the national media, Bastien knows he will never be able to return home again. Just as he’s sure he can’t handle any more stress, David shows his interest. Bastien slowly makes his way forward, trying to find firm footing in the minefield that is his life. But when his landlord makes an announcement about the future of the house, it may change all of his dreams.

Reviewer: Cat

Review: Sebastien has taken a significant step. Even bigger than going far from home to college, but wanting to be completely himself. He isn’t ready to come out to his family, but he figured if he lived so far way that perhaps he could keep that secret for a while longer. He heard about a peer of his that had come to Falcon Pointe, come out and found love. He is hoping Trent can, at least, be a friend to help him along the way.

He likes the men at 959 Benton Street and is happy to get a room there. He likes one of the roommates but isn’t sure he would be interested in an inexperienced young man besides he is sure David is the one straight one at the house.

I love the diversity of these characters. I especially liked David’s difference and how it was handled in the story. When I began reading I felt the story was very similar to the first, and then once we got established, it changed up a lot. There are some Amish issues, family issues, but this one is more character driven with life issues. I also thought this one had a little less angst and, of course, it’s a beautifully written sweet romance.

If you like the Amish, unique characters, coming out, gay weddings, discipline lifestyles, cute puppies and, of course, don’t forget some hot man-sex, I think you will really like this series.

I do suggest you read them in order, so you know who all these characters are.

Discovery by Thianna Durston

Publisher: NQWYE Press (September 1st 2015)
Heat Level: Explicit
Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥4 Hearts
Blurb: Drakyl Ranch is a multi-book series which is meant to be read in order.

Living in Montana and working the ranch is all Aaron wants to do for the rest of his life. Diagnosed as allergic to the sun thirteen years previous, every day is a struggle to get out of bed. Having to wear long-sleeved shirts, gloves, and even material to cover his face from the effects of the sun, just makes it all worse.

Now, in his thirty-second year, he is sure this will be his last summer. While he hates it, he knows he needs to come to terms with the truth and put things in order for his younger cousins. Before he does so, he heads out for one night of pleasure before facing what’s coming.

Jaret loves excitement and new adventures. For over five hundred years, he has sought them out. In Montana on a whim, he comes across someone he doesn’t expect, someone who makes him feel things he does not understand and does not want to give up. In no time at all, he feels like he cannot live without Aaron.

The only problem is Aaron doesn’t know who he is, what he is, nor that he isn’t going to die. Not on Jaret’s watch. With a plan to help the other man discover who he is in place, he only has one thing to worry about: whether an ancient enemy will come and destroy everything he now holds dear.

Warning: This book is a paranormal m/m romance with some horror elements. It also crosses cowboy and vampire genres. If you don’t think cowboys look hot with fangs, you’re missing out.

Reviewer: Cat

Review: Jaret is on the run from some evil Vampyre and lonely for more than a hookup. Aaron has a sun sickness and thinks he is dying, and worries about his young cousins since his Uncle that is raising them is in his 80’s and also dying. These two men meeting is life-changing for them both.

What could be better than vampires? Vampires and cowboys! Discovery is a very intriguing concept. I will warn you there are smelly rotting vampires not sparkly ones, and there is killing both humans and animals for food though it is done as humanely as possible.

Discovery is the set up for the new series, so we meet several characters. There is a bit of history of these Vampyre and Drakyl. There is friendship building and a lot of love and hot man-sex. My only issue was the younger men took this change and finding out what both Aaron their cousin and Jaret is much too calmly. There were no real questions, fear or conflict.

But the story was quite good. It was a fun, entertaining read, and I am ready for more!

If you like vampires, cowboys, mates and some hot man-sex, this is for you!

Jack Carmichael’s natural instinct is to take care of people. In his job as a U.S. Marshal, he has done that for 25 years. Unfortunately, being married to his job has left his love life in tatters. Now classified unfit for duty, he retires and comes home to Colorado to figure things out. Dominant and used to taking control like his brother Brent, he has never been interested in spanking. Until a cute Nurse Practitioner catches his attention.

Josh Martin feels lucky. He’s not only accepted into Corbin’s Bend, but he’ll be working at the brand new Corbin’s Bend Medical Clinic as its only Nurse Practitioner. At thirty-two, he figures this is his last-ditch attempt at finding a dominant partner who isn’t abusive. He finds more than his share of dominant men in Corbin’s Bend, not the least of which are the Carmichael brothers. Brent’s dominance is both comforting and unnerving, Jack’s turns him on.

Josh is unlike any submissive male Jack has encountered and when the younger man asks him out, he decides to give it a go. One day of fun turns into two, three…until Jack, with more failed relationships than he can count in his past and unsure he can be the head of house Josh needs, leaves, burying himself once again in work. Forced to see the error of his decision, he puts aside the worries that have plagued him for months and returns to Corbin’s Bend. To become the good family man he wants to be, he has to earn back Josh’s trust and truly take on a role he’s never considered before: head of a loving discipline household.
