The Spinner of Romances by Roland Graeme

Trey Calhoun is successful at everything except his personal life. After breaking up with his partner of ten years, he accepts a promotion which takes him to a new city, where he begins a new life—alone. Recreational sex provides him some relief from his loneliness. So does Trey's discovery of the books of the M/M romance novelist Pandora Reynolds, whose lurid imagination supplies Trey with some exciting bedtime reading.

When Trey makes the acquaintance of his new neighbor, the college professor Bobby Pandour, he knows he has found a new friend. What Trey is not prepared for is the possibility of real life becoming as complicated, and ultimately as satisfying, as fiction. He soon finds himself attracted to not one but two men. And the revelation of Pandora Reynolds's real identity proves, once again, that fact is not only stranger than fiction—it can also be even sexier

I didn't really like this story and it wasn't cause of the storyline, I felt it was to long and way to detailed. I think the added two stories from the "Pandora Reynolds" was a little too much for me. And the threesome felt forced to me I could get Trey & Bobby but throwing Greg in there didn't make much sense especially after Trey just left a threesome that made him feel awful about himself. I would think he would want to shy away from that potential hurt not suggest it. Although the sex was hot, their was just too many characters to make it feel like a love story, now if you just want some really hot sex scenes here it is, but the story got lost for me. I don't recommend

Everytime I read one of the Balls to the Wall series books it becomes my new favorite, it;s no different with Beach Balls. I loved the plot line, the chemistry between Adam & Sky, the sex scenes were scorching hot and the added humor really made this book for me. 

I really got why Adam stays in the closet, why? because they really are a lot of people who are homophobes out there. I mean look at who he works with right? anyway I enjoyed his look at his life and inner self. It felt deep and intense but it also makes you get to know and understand his character too. Sky I also liked his whole "looking at his own issues" role really made this book for me. I loved his line about how he realizes that saving the earth is wonderful, he had to realize that people also have to live on this earth and incorporate the two.

 I really really liked this story it's fun but sincere too. The on different sides of a serious issue was planned out nicely, I not only enjoyed this book I felt like I learned something too. And in a fun way. I so can't wait for Jerry's story, I recommend

Book 9 in the Zeus Pack series I thought was Great, it incorporates some of Ms. Hagen's other series but I loved that, I'm a big fan of continuing series'. Rave is my favorite in this Menage' he just wants to love and protect his mates, even if one's a mind controlling something or other (yeah I can't pronounce the name LOL) and is actually a nice guy, and the other an FBI agent whose kinda an asshole. Logan the mind controlling clueless one is adorable but like I said clueless, once he gets his powers under control he'll be powerful as hell but I think he'll still be a nice guy.  Tony on the other hand is an ass, plain and simple it took me most of this book to like him, but finally I fell for him too. These three have alot of work cut out for them, their all very independent characters who are strong but very untrusting. It takes alot to get them even in the same room. My favorite part is the tension between Tony & Logan especially with Logan being the younger more eager to please type of guy. LOVED that it was fun. I recommend

I actually loved this story, I liked the whole military twist to the werewolf genre. It was also such a different and unique take on the whole mate storyline too. There were parts that were kinda gross but it's an action type book your gonna get blood & guts right? I got over it pretty quick and Damn the sex scenes are intense but HOT as hell....fans self...I'm looking forward to this series mainly for the different take on werewolves, the military, and it's such an interesting story that I didn't want to put it down.

 I can't wait for the next one, even throwing the team in at the end so that we get a quick look at the future characters didn't feel rushed, it actually felt kinda smooth. I love the chemistry between Tuck & Josh and the struggle with two Alpha type military guys was not only Hot but exciting as well, I'm really looking forward to the next one this sounds like it's gonna be an awesome series. Ms. Scott you now have another fan. I recommend

What this reviewer wants & random rant

I'm a little irritated one of my favorite authors asked a question on her blog today and I replied as of a little while ago their were about 109 comments, now I don't think I have given this author a bad review because I love her stories. But out of those 109 she replied to each and everyone but mine o_O now this could have been a  overlook but I'm gonna give you authors some advice if you reply to a  bunch don't leave out anyone that just sucks. I have lost some respect for this author but I will still buy and read her books because Dammit her stories entertain me plain & simple. It still just sucks!

Now I'm over it on to other things, I was recently asked What do I look for in the books i buy? so here we go 1) Honestly it depends on what kind of mood I'm in, some days I want to laugh, some I just want smex (yeah I know that's almost everyday but oh well) and sometimes I just want a beautiful love story or exciting action, I'm not big on angst (I hate to cry through an entire book) some is ok but not so much that I go through a box of tissues. 2) The Author if its someone who is on my top favorites I will buy their book on just their name only, I won't even read the blurb it won't matter to me they will have earned my trust so I will give them mine. 3) If the blurb is good yes I will buy it. I'm also a sucker for series' (it's my OCD kicking in) 4) I also like convenience I usually by from Amazon, or Bookstrand because of the ease in which I can get through the checkout, and recently I have found Silver Publishing that is also easy and I earn points for more free books Squeee!!!! I'm all for free books, if my hubby ever found out how much I spend on my ebooks, I will probably need a good divorce lawyer LOL. Anyway sometimes the cover will catch my eye so that makes me read the blurb.

Okay I think thats it, Oh and I might just throw in some eye candy just for the hell of it. Found this one one another blog I think. Damn Thats HOT!

Daring Alpha (Twin Pines Grizzlies #11) by Anitra Lynn McLeod

How could a sweet kiss awaken such a dangerous beast?

Dylan Peterson is as tough as they come, but he's also smart and sexy. As the nexus for his bear-shifting brothers, he has dedicated himself to building their group even though he is destined to be alone.

Preston Athey is the nexus for the wolf-shifters, and he couldn't walk past an injured Dylan without bestowing a simple kiss. Preston had no idea such a simple act would have such far-reaching consequences.

When Preston and Dylan are brought together to twin the souls of two of their shifting brothers, Preston is stunned. He never thought he would see Dylan again. When Dylan dares to steal a kiss, he seals their fate.

Breaking the rules unleashes the beast inside their souls. Once awakened, there's nothing that will put it back to sleep, not until the beast has sated his lust by claiming his mate.

                                                                    4.75 STARS

I truly thought that the last book was my favorite by I was wrong Dylan's story is now my favorite in this series. Preston was a little confusing for me but I get with the way he was raised why he thinks the way he does. Dylan of course is fun to get to know and he has such a big heart just the way he helps Cory is testament to that. Besides Damn the sex scenes are frickin' HOT! Iso wanted to beat the hell outta Elias and I do not like Grayson at all the are not nice people/werewolves, what they do to Preston was horrible and I hope they get theirs in a future book. I recommend



 

Switch (True Colors #4) by Clare London

Miles Winter and Zeke Roswell have excited and enthralled each other since the day they met. Zeke’s uninhibited lovemaking has allowed Miles to grow in confidence and their relationship to deepen. Back from a business trip, Miles knows he should take care of his backlog of work, but the delight of being reunited with Zeke makes him realize he has other, more important needs—including the one sexual step he hasn’t yet taken. Business can wait in favor of a commitment far more primal and more permanent.

                                                            4.75 STARS 

I absolutely love Miles & Zeke, out of all 3 mini stories this one is my favorite. Of course the first book True Colors is the top favorite but I'm loving the continued storyline, it's well written and the storyline from the first book is still a factor in all the books. I hope that we get more of this awesome couple and hope to get Red's story too along with Carter of course. I have to recommend because this story is adorable but so sincere that every time I read one in this series I'm brought back to the original story and how much I loved it.
This is a must read!
