#Review: Burn It Down by Jillian D Wray #MMRomance #GayRomance

#Review: Burn It Down by Jillian D Wray #MMRomance #GayRomance

Jacob Ellington

I've been bred for success.

As the CFO of my father's wealth management firm, I know exactly what's expected of me and the image I must uphold. To the outside world, my long-term girlfriend and I are beautiful, powerful, successful…and rich.

#Review: Burn It Down by Jillian D Wray #MMRomance #GayRomanceHowever, the suit I wear hides more than my cut physique. Living a lie has been the norm since I was a teenager. Although not ideal, I have a great woman by my side and a promising future. Everything is as it should be.

Until I cross paths with Dylan Ryder.

One look and everything I've worked so hard to conceal comes rushing to the surface.

One taste and I'm ready to burn my life as I know it to the ground.

Dylan Ryder

I'm used to being judged.

My Mexican-American heritage earns me some looks, my tattoos earn me others, and of course being on a date with another man ensures whoever wasn't staring because of the first two things, definitely is now.

But I haven't been on a date in a while.

With my family's automotive shop under attack from vandals I'm working longer hours to try and make ends meet as business keeps waning.

So, when I crumple the front-end of a Maserati at the grocery store, I really don't have the time or money to deal with it. But knowing it's the right thing to do, I offer to fix it anyway.

Wholly unprepared for the onslaught of lust as Jacob Ellington enters my life, I struggle to maintain control. However, as our paths continue to cross, I become unsure if I even want control anymore.

And when our mouths inevitably collide, he lights my world on fire. Literally.

Burn It Down

This lovely book features both the struggle for identity and handling desire. The story revolves around Jacob, a successful CFO, and Dylan, a tattooed mechanic navigating the complexities of life.

Jacob, trapped in a façade, finds himself drawn to Dylan, whose bold personality contrasts Jacob's hidden issues. Their connection grows from an unexpected encounter, bringing Jacob face to face with the truth about himself.

Wray captures the tension between society's expectations and personal happiness. The chemistry between Jacob and Dylan is tangible, inviting readers to root for their blossoming relationship. The contrasts in their backgrounds add richness to the themes of acceptance and self-discovery.

The writing flows like silk, allowing readers to immerse themselves in the characters' relationships without distractions. Wray builds a world where love transcends societal norms and personal insecurities. The emotional stakes are high, but the journey to self-acceptance unfolds naturally.

I found myself invested in Jacob and Dylan's story, eager to see how their paths unfold. This novel makes you believe in the transformative power of love and the absolute importance of living truthfully. I rarely read first person narratives, but this one captured my attention from the first sentence. Well written and highly recommended.

There is nothing going on with him. Nothing at all #MMRomance #AcademyRomance #MFRWhooks

A Divided Heart #MMRomance #SciFi #WriteLGBTQ

A Divided Heart #MMRomance #SciFi #WriteLGBTQIn this excerpt, Brinn sits on the stairs, lost in memory about the same house he now shares with his student, Dresden. His mind drifts over past events held within these walls—Guild graduations, intense late-night studies, and the leadership of his mentor, Luc. Hahlibeth, his co-teacher and foster-sister, joins him, offering an understanding ear and gentle reassurance as they discuss Dresden's adjustment to a new life.

What's next?

On the stairs, Brinn turned and sat, elbows braced on his knees, thinking back over the day. How bizarre was it to have a student of his own in this house, where he had so many memories. Graduation parties for reaching the various levels in the Guild. Long nights spent studying. Being quizzed by Luc, asking him questions, getting his advice. Learning the laws that pertained to the types of theft Brinn planned to pursue. Understanding contracts for theft and how to protect himself against dubious clauses and demands.

He was still sitting there when Hahlibeth came down.

She sat beside him. "I got two pages into a story, and she was out. I thought she might be faking it at first. My brother and I used to do that sometimes. We'd talk in the dark. I finished reading and sat there, waiting, but she didn't move."

"You think she's happy?"

"I don't think she knows what to think."

"Probably right."

Hahlibeth gripped one of his hands and leaned toward him. "She's young. She's in a new place. Her life has been disrupted. We can't expect anything like normal. She doesn't even know what normal is right now. At least, not what's normal for an Academy student."

Brinn set one arm around Hahlibeth's shoulders and hugged her. "I'm so glad to be doing this with you."

"Me too." She leaned against him and then away. "So, what's with the sexual tension between you and Kam?"

He twisted to face her, putting his back against the railing. "Um... What?"

"Oh, don't pretend. It was so thick you could cut it with a knife."

"Hahlibeth, I promise you. There is nothing going on between Kam and me. If you're sensing anything, it's frustration and annoyance."

She chuckled. "Uh huh."

He sputtered, unable to form words.

She patted him on one knee. "I'm going to work on my lesson plans. Now that I've met my students, I want to make a few corrections. Amp up some details and give them more of a challenge. I'll be in my room. It's right across the hall from Dresden. Are you in the room Luc used to use?"

"No. I kept my old room. I couldn't go in there after he moved away."

"Why? Did Luc ask you not to?"

"Nothing like that. I just didn't feel... You know. Worthy."

Hahlibeth took his hands and met his gaze. "Luc gave this house to you. Not to any of the others. Not even to Senth, and he formally adopted him." She squeezed and let go. "You are far more worthy than you think."

She went up the steps, and the sound of a door clicking came to him.

Kam was right. Brinn needed to get back to work. Luc had said the same thing. Stop twisting the memories of the past like worry beads and create new memories.

He had to find a way to break through the emotional ice surrounding Dresden and help her create new memories too.

Time to get back to business. Put the failures of his past behind him and do what Luc had drilled into him.

Focus on here. Focus on now.

Tomorrow, first thing. He'd start again.

Dresden might never love him the way he loved Luc, but if Brinn could be good enough, he could give her the life she deserved.

All he had to do was get out of his own way long enough to do it.

#Review: The Warlock Billionaire’s Soulmate by Jack Brightside #MMRomance #PNR

#Review: The Warlock Billionaire's Soulmate by Jack Brightside #MMRomance #PNR

#Review: The Warlock Billionaire's Soulmate by Jack Brightside #MMRomance #PNRBetween magic and his billion dollar company, Redford doesn't have time for dating.

Redford swore off dating mortals after he watched his last partner die three centuries ago. As the CEO of a billion-dollar company he doesn't have time to meet people, so he casts an enchantment to summon his soulmate.

His soulmate turns out to be Conway, a broke Coloradan who works sixty-hour weeks as a bartender. He's also the reincarnation of Redford's lover from three hundred years ago.

They day after they meet, Redford receives a divination that Conway is fated to die at the end of the month. He sees a chance to do what he couldn't three hundred years ago: to save the man he loves. In the meantime, he's got to make his soulmate fall in love with him.

The Warlock Billionaire's Soulmate

I enjoyed reading this book. Redford and Conway make a fun couple, especially with the element of magic mixed in. Redford is an intriguing character, balancing his busy CEO life and magical realities, while Conway brings the story down to earth as a relatable bartender who's just trying to make ends meet. The chemistry between them is hot, and their scenes together feel genuine.

Brightside creates easy-to-read dialogue and some truly funny moments which made the read effortless. The romantic side of things doesn't feel forced, and along with the everyday conflicts, magical elements blend naturally into the plot. Reincarnation adds emotion without overwhelming detail. If you like your romance stories to include humor, magic, and relatable characters, then this is a solid choice for your next read.

This is an MM paranormal romance with a HEA and a lot of laughs.

Expect kink, forced proximity, fated lovers, magic, classic billionaire tropes, and enough steam to peel the paint off your walls.

Okay, maybe he was reading more into it. But maybe not #MMRomance #AcademyRomance #MFRWhooks

A Divided Heart #MMRomance #SciFi #WriteLGBTQ

In this excerpt from A Divided Heart, Brinn and Kam confront unresolved tension after Kam arrives under the pretense of an official inspection from the Academy. Brinn maintains a careful distance, unwilling to let Kam see past his defenses, yet minor details betray the deeper emotions beneath the surface. Their conversation centers on Dresden, a young girl in Brinn's care. Both men struggle with mixed signals and confusion over past connections that neither acknowledges. Through their clipped dialogue and guarded interactions, the friction between them emerges, highlighting how misunderstandings and pride continue to hinder the openness they truly desire.

Kam POV:

Once they were out of sight, Brinn glared at Kam. "Is this an official inspection?"

"The Academy does require a check-in, and since I wanted to tell you about the board meeting, I said I'd oversee it."

"As you can see, we have things under control." Brinn jammed his arms across his chest.

The tension in Brinn's posture had eased when he'd been interacting with Dresden about the mowt, but now it returned, full force.

"She seems really sweet." Kam adjusted his collar. "I'm glad for her. And for you."

"Why would you be glad for me?"

"Because you need to get back to work. I think helping this little girl might do it for you."

"Just what do you mean by that?"

Why was Brinn so touchy about everything? And what had Kam said now?

"Look," Brinn headed for the door, and Kam followed. "Thanks for telling me about the meeting. Don't worry. We'll take care of your mowt. Send a text when you're back and we'll bring him to you." Brinn opened the door.

"Thanks." He stuck out his hand, and Brinn shook it. "See you in a couple days."

Kam hadn't even gotten off the front steps before the door slammed. Okay, not a full slam, but more than a quiet close. The kind of close when unwanted company finally left. Halfway between good-riddance and don't-come-back.

Could Brinn not let down his guard for one minute? No matter how many times or how many ways Kam found to be in the man's circle, Brinn remained indifferent.

Shutting Kam out.

No doubt Kam was reading more into Brinn's actions than he needed to.

But, knowing Brinn, maybe not.

Brinn POV

Brinn caught the door before it slammed. He might be irritated, but he didn't want Kam to notice it. Still, it closed hard.

What was he worrying about? Kam was clueless anyway.

With that constant stony-faced expression of his, who could tell? No doubt there was more going on beneath the surface.

Why should he even think about the man? It wasn't like they had anything going on. They'd had a few nights together after completing a huge project. That was it. They'd each been too wrapped up in other projects to continue the relationship. Hadn't they?

So why did his heart race every time he and Kam were in the same room? It wasn't like Kam had any interest. The man found every tiny reason to be in Brinn's business. Questioning his motives. Asking him questions. Finding fault with his answers.

Like coming all the way out here to tell him about a meeting. Come on. No, Kam was checking up on him. Of all the nerve.

Okay, could be reading more into that than it was worth.

But, knowing Kam, maybe not.

#Review: Sands of Thyme by EM Lynley #MMRomance #GayRomance #BookTalk

#Review: Sands of Thyme by EM Lynley #MMRomance #GayRomance #BookTalk

Burke Williams wasn't planning on a vacation, but when his well-meaning sister lures him to the airport and hands him a plane ticket and a packed suitcase the day after he finishes a high-pressure programming project, he decides to hop on the plane and go.

#Review: Sands of Thyme by EM Lynley #MMRomance #GayRomance #BookTalkNever in his wildest dreams did he imagine a place like Cockatoo, a clothing-optional gay beach resort. For a guy more at home with a hard drive than happy hour, he feels like a fish out of water on the Caribbean island.

Only one other guy at the place seems to be enjoying it less than Burke: a handsome guy more interested in looking through his binoculars at the woods surrounding the resort than at the array of available Speedo-clad men laid out in rows of beach chairs, a veritable Smorgasbord of willing partners.

Stafford Nelson didn't come to Cocaktoo to find a temporary bedmate, but he finds geeky Burke sweet and charming, and they hit it off immediately. But when Burke discovers what Staff is really after, it might shipwreck their blossoming connection.

Sands of Thyme

A wonderful book with a charming tale of unexpected romance set against the backdrop of a clothing-optional resort. Burke Williams, a reserved programmer, finds himself transported to a vibrant Caribbean island by his sister's well-meaning intervention. The contrast between his structured life and the carefree atmosphere of Cockatoo is both amusing and endearing.

The interaction between Burke and Stafford Nelson, another guest who seems equally out of place, forms the heart of the story. Their initial connection is both sweet and genuine, drawing readers into their evolving relationship. Stafford's withdrawn conduct and Burke's awkwardness create an enjoyable and relatable dynamic.

As the two navigate their feelings in this odd setting, Sands of Thyme reveals an unfolding story of discovering love where it's least expected. The lighthearted search for identity and connection, set in a lively resort, adds a layer of warmth to the plot. Lynley's writing invites readers to celebrate the joy of new experiences and the power of connection.

Sands of Thyme offers a refreshing take on love at first sight in a unique and engaging environment, making it a delightful read for those who love playful romances.

#Review: A Boon by Moonlight by Nicola M Cameron #MMRomance #Fantasy #Elves

A Boon by Moonlight by Nicola M Cameron #MMRomance #Fantasy #Elves

Ex-Marine Zach Mayhew is willing to do anything for his dying grandmother. When she asks him to find a fairy ring in the forest and beg that she be allowed to spend her last days in Faerie, he obliges her (even though he thinks it's nuts).

A Boon by Moonlight by Nicola M Cameron #MMRomance #Fantasy #ElvesBut when a gorgeous Sidhe noble steps out of the ring and asks for a night in his bed in return, Zach learns that history has a way of repeating itself, and a boon asked by moonlight can have unexpected consequences for his heart.

A Boon by Moonlight

A Boon by Moonlight by Nicola M Cameron is a story of love beyond the boundaries of the everyday world. The story begins with ex-Marine Zach Mayhew, whose devotion to his dying grandmother drives him to embark on a quest that introduces him to a realm of enchantment and possibility.

Cameron weaves the essence of the Fae with human emotions of longing and sacrifice, creating an enchanting and relatable tale. Her prose allows readers to immerse in the story's atmosphere while connecting with its characters.

Zach's journey into a world he at first finds absurd leads him to encounter a Sidhe noble, whose allure and charm bring unexpected depth to the tale. The interplay between their two worlds relays their love and commitment, and the magical background raises the emotional stakes.

Zach navigates the implications of a boon asked by moonlight, revealing the transformative power of love and the possibilities of embracing the unknown.

A Boon by Moonlight is a delightful short story that blends fantasy with heartfelt emotion, offering a quick and uplifting reading experience. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The Warlock Billionaire's Soulmate

This book was a pleasant surprise. I wasn’t sure how magic, billionaires, and reincarnation would work together, but it was entertaining and easy to read. Redford is likable, despite being rich and magical. His romance with Conway is sweet and funny.

I especially liked Conway’s easy-going and relatable personality, compared to Redford’s more serious side. Paranormal elements blend well with the modern world, making the entire story smooth. The humor feels natural and helps keep things fun, even with the looming fate hanging over Conway. The pair’s chemistry is believable and never forced, and the happy ending fits their story.

Everything wrapped up without loose ends or confusion. This is a fun, easygoing gay romance novel. Recommended.

#Review: Wildfire by Sam Burns and WM Fawkes #MMRomance #Mythology

#Review: Wildfire by Sam Burns and WM Fawkes #MMRomance #Mythology

#Review: Wildfire by Sam Burns and WM Fawkes #MMRomance #MythologyWilder Pratt has given up trying to get his life together. Passed up for a promotion, left by his long-term boyfriend, nothing in his life seems to work how he planned. Wilder is just treading water...right up until the moment he trips over a dead student outside his office with a golden would-be murderer standing over the body.

Hermes has been running his whole life—from duty and danger, from a father who mistrusts him and siblings who outshine him. But when the students at Banneker College of magic start dropping dead one after another, Hermes's ass is on the line. He finds himself playing bodyguard to a man who suspects him of murder, but that doesn't seem enough to keep Professor Pratt's hot hands off him.

An ancient evil has risen from the depths of Tartarus, and it's coming for Banneker. The only thing standing in the way of a titanic apocalypse is one disappointing part-time professor and a god who'd rather abandon the world to its fate. But if they work together, they may just save everyone.

Wildfire

Wilder Pratt, the main character in Wildfire, feels like someone you could meet in real life, struggling to catch a break. His life takes a wild turn when he literally stumbles into some serious chaos at his college. The mix of humor and drama kept me engaged, and Wilder's journey was relatable. I couldn't help but root for him as he tried to navigate his messy life and find his purpose.

Then you have Hermes, who adds another layer to this story. He's got his own set of problems and so much family baggage. So much! Their chemistry is on the page right from the start, and watching their relationship unfold was fun. The banter between them feels natural as they grow closer amidst the turmoil.

The plot kept me on my toes with the suspenseful twist of an ancient evil threatening everything. The blend of magic and real-world issues gives the story a unique vibe. A re-readable mix of romance, humor, and a dash of mythology that makes for an enjoyable time. Definitely worth checking out.

#Review: Sea and Sky by Morgan Lysand #MMRomance #MerMay #Merfolk

Prince Gavin, third son of the king has been denied the Grand Mage status he's sought for seven years. Finally, the king decides to grant him a Task that would lead to him receiving the recognition he deserves. Unfortunately, there's a pesky arranged marriage to deal with.

When Kyler saves the charming prince from drowning, Gavin asks him to play his lover for a month to get out of marrying a princess from another land. Kyler agrees after Gavin offers him a favor. A favor Kyler intends to take full advantage of.

Will Kyler gain his freedom or will the captain keep him forever? Can Gavin protect his heart and become a Grand Mage or will he be torn apart by betrayal?

This sweet and steamy MM fantasy romance features a lonely, broken merman and a dragon prince who is not as arrogant as he seems...

Sea & Sky

This book by Morgan Lysand was a fun read. The story is about Kyler, a merfolk trying to break free from his past, and Gavin, a prince stuck in a tough spot. Their relationship starts with the prince and the mer both needing aid.

The fantasy setting was established in chapter one, with shifters, magical potions, and spells to create light and illusions. Kyler established himself as a strong person, doing whatever he needed to do to survive.

Prince Gavin was a scholar, fascinated by merfolk, and bringing the two together made perfect sense. Each needed help and escape from their circumstances, and by working together, they created a believable ruse. But how long could the ruse be simply a ruse?

The mix of magic, royalty, and pirates gives it a fresh vibe, and the balance between serious moments and lighter ones kept my interest.

If you like imaginative fantasy romance and merfolk, you'll love this story.

My Demon Assistant by Stella Rainbow #MMRomance #PNRHe was on-time everyday, brought me homemade cookies, and did his work diligently. While he had a tendency to get his phrases and words mixed up, he was ultimately a good assistant.

Finding out the two people I loved and trusted the most in this world had already known and kept it a secret from me didn't help, but it also couldn't stop me from falling for my strange, wonderful assistant.
