Husky and Heartfelt is a second-chance MM romance that, for me, landed somewhere in the middle. It’s not a bad book at all, but as someone who has read a lot of MM romance, it felt a bit lukewarm overall. The premise itself is quite strong. Hugo, a mu ...more |

Mistress and Mage is one of those books that easily earns five stars, yet feels almost impossible to review concisely because there are so many elements worth discussing. Still, I’ll try. First, this book is a perfect choice for readers who enjoy Rege ...more |

Worth the Wait is a wonderfully written MM small-town, second-chance suspense romance that completely drew me in. It’s been a while since I’ve read something that balanced emotion, tension, and romance this well. Nathan, a former soldier and single fa ...more |

| His Elder by C. G. Macington was a tricky read for me because I usually avoid books focused on religion and faith. At first, I even cringed a little while reading about the daily life of elders on their mission. Their strict schedules and constant sc ...more | |

| Shut Up and Play is a rivals-to-lovers, second-chance MM hockey romance that thrives on tension and unresolved history. Todd, the closeted team captain, channels all his frustration into the game, using the rink as a safe place to hide. Everything ch ...more | |
“We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and—in spite of True Romance magazines—we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely—at least, not all the time—but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don't see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness.”
― The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
― The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
― The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
― The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
“A man who procrastinates in his choosing will inevitably have his choice made for him by circumstance.”
