The Cowboy in Unit E

The good news is the most gorgeous cowboy Ive ever seen is moving in next door to me. The bad news? Hes not alone. Hanging on his arm is a very pregnant woman. Are they a couple? It sure looks like they are. So not only is he not gay, but he also has a girlfriend, or a wife, or whatever. Just my luck..

The Cowboy in Unit E (Mockingbird Place, #2)

I have lost count of what gay cowboy romance number I am on in this marathon. It is almost done.

I worried that I would be unable to understand this one, since it was the second in a series....

This is 80% kinky porn, 15% childish drama and 5% wonderful non-binary side character.

At eighteen, Landon Miller was sure about two thingshe was a submissive and he was going to be with Gregory Douglas for the rest of his life. That was until parents and school got in the way, and he found himself in New York, thousands of miles from the man who had learned how to take him in hand. Feeling abandoned by the person hed come to rely on, Landon has no choice but to set his sights on a new and...

Feast of Sparks

Well this was exactly as WILD, over-the-top, big emotions, ridiculous-but-in-a-serious-way and DRAMATIC as the first book.
Okay, maybe not exactly the same some parts were suprisingly mellow in comparison, the plot was less straightforward, some things were disappointing to the point I rolled my eyes, yet others then upped the ante back to 110%.

Im an outcast and a loner, named for death itself. Fate wasnt supposed to have plans for me.
But then she came backthe girl I once kissed in a...

ARC Review: Pop Star by Eden Finley

Great bodyguard romance with a lot of feelings and humor.

The Painted Crown

This book means so much to me on a very personal level, both when I read it for the first time and on every reread again.

Prince Istari has spent his life reviled: his parents wish he had never been born, the royal court of Belemere avoids him for fear of angering the king, and everyone else is kept away by his notorious reputation as a deadly sharpshooter. Now a hostage of peace in Tallideth, he is subjected to their hatred as welleven that of Regent Vellem, who once considered him a comrade...
