The fourth entry in Northcote’s Housemate series (and the hottest), Watching and Wanting is Shawn’s story. Readers familiar with the series will recognize him as the straight friend who lives with Jez, Mac, and Dev. Shawn’s life is a mess. He’s just been dumped by his girlfriend, he’s bored with his job, and he’s surrounded by…
Annabeth Albert is an author who first came to my attention with her Portland Heat series, centered around small shop owners of assorted varieties, and her #gaymer series which features a video game company. The last #gaymers book, Connection Error, featured a Navy SEAL (Ryan) and this new series Out of Uniform is a spin…
I’m going to start by saying that I have a lot of admiration for what Kris Ripper has done with the Queers of La Vista series. Human beings hate change, they fear what they see as abnormal or different. In these novels the author presents stories about normal, everyday people who also represent some of…
Earlier this year I had the pleasure of reviewing The Hating Game by Sally Thorne. I loved it and recommended it to everyone I know. Since then, I was certain – convinced really – that no other book could or would top my best of list for 2016 (though Cat Sebastian’s The Soldier’s Scoundrel came…
I have to say that I am not a great fan of Holiday romances, as they are usually full of ridiculous coincidences and enough sweetness to induce a diabetic coma. But in this lovely, well written Christmas romance, Amy Jo Cousins keeps the story and the characters the right side of realism and cynicism, but…
In David, Renewed, Diana Copland has delivered a classic, well-crafted romance in which not only the main characters are appealing, but the supporting crew are wonderful as well. David Snyder is a rising star in a corporate decorating firm. Having walked out of a five-year relationship with good reason, he impulsively buys himself a craftsman-style…
This book is a magnificent read and homage to the tradition of Victorian paranormal stories, and their ilk. I wish I could just let my review be those words, but if I did, I’d probably be drummed out of the ‘Reviewers Union’ ;) The Secret Casebook of Simon Feximal is almost the ‘queering’ of Holmes…
Chasing the High is Beth Michele’s first m/m Romance, though she has quite a back catalogue of well-received m/f Romances. This novel starts well with a quote from F. Scott Fitzgerald – “They slipped into an intimacy from which they have never recovered.” a perfect summation of the plot of this novel. Sam Stone is…
Published under the Dreamspun Desires banner, Clare London’s latest is Romancing the Wrong Twin. When gruff, career mountaineer Dominic Hartington-George needs money for his next climb, his agent persuades him to get sponsorship from an outward bound equipment company. The company champions diversity in sport, so to snag the deal Dom is persuaded to get…
Interborough is the fourth in Santino Hassell’s Five Boroughs series and is definitely not a standalone. It re-visits an established pair, Raymond and David, eighteen months on from previous novels in the series. Raymond Rodriguez is now working two jobs and going to college. He still lives with David Butler, who is now at the…
