Deliciously daft fantasy de(mer)tailing, at some length, the torrid affair between husky merchant seaman, Fernando, and Arian, a sultry merman. At this point, I have to confess I hadn't cottoned on to the fact this was a Little Mermaid retelling, but a very loose one (rather like Fernando's backside, by the end of this book.)...

Review – Deviant by Z.S. Storm
I'm catching up with my reviews so forgive me if there are a few at once. I've been working on a free book for the Holiday season and want to get it out to you, looking gorgeous and as good as it can be! Now to the review. If you are thinking about reading this... Continue Reading →
Review – The Vessel by Selena Moore
This novella describes itself as a Reverse Harem book. For those who don't know, Reverse Harem is a sub-genre involving a woman and several men in a mutual sexual and sometimes loving relationship. Read the triggers in the blurb. They aren't there just for shits n giggles. Now that's out the way, let's look at... Continue Reading →
Review – Devil’s Due by J.P. Jackson
Dominic Ronove (Dom!) is a badass demon who is very good at his job, giving humans whatever they want for six years before they have to repay the debt, often bloodily and always without mercy. Malik is a cute, intelligent guy who moves across Dom's radar and piques his interest, setting in motion events which... Continue Reading →
Review – Dollars to Collars by Mx. Alex
This is a super-quick read at 63 pages, which packs a great wallop. Having read Mx. Alex's books before, I know kind of what to expect, and I also trust they represent BDSM correctly and with intimate knowledge. It's a safe feeling, knowing you're reading something that feels authentic. Hats off as well for not... Continue Reading →
Review – The Flower Arrangement (Pursuit of Love) by K.C. Carmine
A lovely, quick to read novella and a timeless love story of man meeting man after a painful break-up. At 111 pages, this is an effortless read and a warming love story about second changes. Brendan and Hugh are a lovely couple who you wish well, and when they finally get together, after a YEAR... Continue Reading →
Review – The Many Loves of Sarah Brennan by Vikki Alexander
I read this when it was first presented as an ARC read, and I loved it. Sarah had been a somewhat polarising figure in Vikki Alexander's first book, Coloring Life, and the chance to find out her story was intriguing. I didn't much like Sarah, from what I knew of her in Coloring Life, but... Continue Reading →
Review – Wild Hearts (Bay Hearts Book 1) by Caz May
First thing to say - Read the author trigger warnings at the beginning. She very clearly states that in Australia, the age of consent is sixteen, so anyone saying "eew, they are so young," well, you've been warned. I picked up this book after seeing it on Instagram, and to be honest, I was expecting... Continue Reading →
Review – Diary of a Shy Backpacker by Bruce Spydar
I must admit, I didn't read the blurb properly before I launched into this, and as a result, spent the whole book thinking it was a biography. Oops! Anyway, Bruce, our protagonist, exudes British awkwardness as he blunders around Australia, sight-seeing and thinking lascivious thoughts about the ladies he meets along the way. In short,...

Review – Unprotected by Billy Porter
Visibility is hard. Anyone who creates and wants to be noticed by the millions of people on-line day after day can tell you that. We do what we can. Now imagine you're a young, black gay man in the 1980's and 90's who, despite being possessed of an awesome talent, constantly has to fight against... Continue Reading →
