I am supposed to write some coherent review for this.... Not sure that is possible because all that's left in my mind is "sir... sir... sir... sir..." and that leather glove.... yeeeshhhh... Shivers....

I don't know why I stopped reading this series after second book and I am punching myself in the head because I can not believe I skipped Nick! That devilish man .... I already know he will be the love of my life.

So... when it comes to James and Cal I loved everything. In the be ...more

I love this book because of two reasons! The first one is the great relationship between Cal and James! They have a great chemistry, each one of them has what the other needs, and they have some really hot and sweet scenes! The second reason, is Nick! He is my favorite character of Market Garden series! Was a precious gift to see him again!

I was privileged to receive an advance copy of this book for review and wow! I think this is my favourite of the series and I highly recommend you pre-order right now so you can get your hands on the book when it's released in March!

Callum has been driving his boss, James, to the Market Garden and watched as James has brought home a number of the Market Garden rentboys. Cal has been watching James, seeing him in the lead up to his Market Garden visits and watching his reaction afterwards. Cal is ...more

Review written for MM Good Book Reviews

What a superb book. When it comes to erotic writing this particular team of authors create magic so sublime you wish you never get out in real world again, and simply drown in the erotic fantasies. Yes, I’m left wanting more, the craving getting only worse with each new instalment, the addiction painful when forced to wait. There are many thing about this book that drive me crazy, but the fact that this is one of the best written erotic series eve ...more

Goodreads summary: If it flies, drives, or fornicates, it's cheaper to rent it.

After driving James Harcourt, his wealthy banker boss, around for a year and a half, Cal isn’t surprised by much anymore. Not even James’s regular trips to Market Garden, London’s most elite gay brothel.

But when James leaves the Garden alone one night and turns to Cal instead, Cal’s floored. After crushing on his boss for ages, it’s his wet dream come true . . . until the awkward morning after. Cal still has a job to Goodreads summary: If it flies, drives, or fornicates, it's cheaper to rent it.

After driving James Harcourt, his wealthy banker boss, around for a year and a half, Cal isn’t surprised by much anymore. Not even James’s regular trips to Market Garden, London’s most elite gay brothel.

But when James leaves the Garden alone one night and turns to Cal instead, Cal’s floored. After crushing on his boss for ages, it’s his wet dream come true . . . until the awkward morning after. Cal still has a job to do, but he wants to offer more. Yet James doesn’t take him up on it; he keeps Cal at arm’s length and continues his chauffeured jaunts to Market Garden.

As Cal learns what James needs from the rentboys, he tries to fill that need himself. But there’s more to James’s penchant for rentboys than Cal realizes, and it may be one role that Cal can’t fill without overstepping his duty.

So… this is the first M-M book review here on my blogger, but it’s not the first M-M book that I’ve read. You can check my goodreads page so see them.

If It Drives actually is my first M-M ARC! YEY!
I love L.A. Witt & Aleksandr Voinov duo. I am a big fan of this series!

So when I got approved, I started reading it. It kept me up all night.
I love it. It’s beautiful, sexy and so hawt!

Note: Spoilers.

-At first part I thought it’s not connected to Market Garden besides James being an occasional client. Then James and his driver, Callum, got involved (I mean they had sweaty and so hot sex) so I start asking (asking my imaginary book buddy while reading. I’m cray cray! Wahaha!) why this book is in Market Garden series.

-So yeah… the story is about this sexy banker, who likes men to top him and his driver, who wants to learn how to dominate a guy much better.

-James is the sexy banker. (I mean very sexy, for real I think he’s the sexiest among the Market Garden Series characters from book 1) There is something about him that I instantly liked. Gawd! I love him in bed. (well I didn’t exactly got to bed with him… so you know what I mean) He’s so “sub”, gah! I don’t know how to explain it! I like it when he do what Callum told, it’s like I can picture it in my mind. * fanning *

-Callum is the driver. I love this guy! I love him especially when he and James are in bed. (Well… not always in bed, I mean.. you know what I mean) Gosh! My stomach is full of fluttering butterflies when he says “sir” even he’s the Dom in the relationship! Hawt Hawt!

-I love the part when Cal compares himself with a car, it’s my favorite part.

-Is this the last Market Garden Book? I hope it’s not. I’m still wondering what happened to Rolex…

Ok, I love this series! This one is of my favorites right there next to Capture and Surrender.

The characters in this book are James Harcourt, wealthy investment banker who has a driver, Cal, so he can spend more time working on deals than wasting time driving around London. He has also,
recently divorced and sees his kids sporadically. James also has a kink about how he relieves his stress, going to the Market Garden to the rentboys. One specific rentboy works best for him, Nick, who is no longe ...more

While previous titles in this series star the fabulous rentboys of Market Garden, If It Drives presents this fascinating and alluring world through the eyes of Callum, the driver for James Harcourt, a well-to-do financier. Appearing in previous books as the character Rolex, James has enthusiastically availed himself of many of the delights to be found at the Garden, including Nick, wh ...more

4.5*

Pool table sex is always hot, but never like this! Aside from the hot sex, If it Drives also has a nice story contained within its pages. Poor Cal has lusted after his boss for 18 months, all the while being invisible. One night that all changes… or does it. Cal does everything he can to get James to see him, including seeking out the help James’ former trick and Market Garden’s former elite sadist/dom Nick. What he discovers is that his kink matches up to James’ perfectly. However, James ma ...more

This was a surprisingly sweet kinky book. Cal genuinely cares for James who definitely needs some guidance and help in the relationship department. I loved watching Cal figure out what James needed and explore the Dominate side he never knew he had. I also liked watching James submit almost with relief. It was also great to see Nick and Spencer again, and watch Nick mentoring Cal.
