  1. Now on the blog: A review of the #Paranormal #Fantasy “Song of Oestend” by Marie Sexton. #MMRomance #GayBookReviews

    Aren’s professor helped get him a job as a bookkeeper for a ranch in Oestend. It seemed like a favor at the time, but maybe it wasn’t. Oestend is about as far from the university in the capital as you can get. And, it turns out wraiths are real. If you go out at night, or even leave a window open, they will get to you and kill you. Deacon is the ranch foreman, and he keeps it running with an iron fist, if necessary. Although sometimes put off by Deacon’s harsh treatment of the men, Aren is still drawn to the dark and powerful man. The two become friends, and Aren is saddened to learn that he’s Deacon’s only friend, since he’s the only one on the ranch who isn’t a hired hand or one of the owner’s family. Aren is the only one Deacon doesn’t have to be strong around.

  2. Fairy tale romances can be fun. “The Prince’s Consort” has a handsome prince, a wicked father and his son, who proves to be more than he seems. #MMRomance

    Amory has never been able to please his father. When his older brother catches Amory kissing his best friend Tristan, things can only get worse, but Amory is surprised when his father informs him he will be coming with him to the palace the next day. Surprise turns to shock when Amory’s father makes a startling proposal to the prince. Crown Prince Philip is almost as shocked as Amory at his father’s despicable suggestion. Still, he feels strongly attracted to the young man, and wants to protect him from his father’s avarice. Philip offers Amory a room in the palace and the two quickly become friends, and then lovers. As Crown Prince, Philip has responsibilities, and some of those Amory can’t help with, or can he?

  3. Obligatory self-promotion for my latest book, “Good Dawg.”

    It took too long for Kevin to figure out he needed to be with a man who knew how to take control. He's not the young twink he sees submissives depicted as in the kinky stories he reads. Even if they were mostly fantasy, those books gave him a glimpse of what life could be like with the right dominant but also seemed to put it further out of reach.

    Being a clinical psychologist in a big hospital keeps Theo busy. He's definitely drawn to men who are able to submit and give him complete control over their pleasure. Theo loves exploring the world of dominance and submission, but he doesn't see a full-time submissive in his future. He doesn't have the time to look after someone who needs that much attention.

    When Theo's dog uses her wiles to introduce Kevin and Theo, the sparks certainly fly. Can two men who feel they're better off single really build a life together? #BDSM #MMRomance

  4. The Archangel #SciFi #MMRomance series by C.J. Dragon follows the adventures of Raphael, a child of the Mars colony, the main outpost for humanity since Earth is no longer habitable. He is also a powerful empath, so while he loves his extended family, he sometimes needs time alone to keep their thoughts from overwhelming him. That's easily accomplished by taking his small scout ship Agatha out to look for minerals in the asteroid belt. It's on one of these trips that he encounters a Chi'NoSa ship that accidentally damages Agatha. Lord Commander Teo of the ship orders Agatha and Raphael to be brought aboard. Teo has never met a human, is fascinated by Raphael, and wants to keep him around. Thus begins a series of adventures as the two men become lovers and attempt to bridge a vast cultural gulf between their two races.

  6. “Dublin Bay” by John Patrick is a complex #MMRomance.

    James is a seventeen-year-old working-class Irish man just out of school and looking for his first job. He’s picking mussels from Dublin Bay one day to feed his family when he spots another young man his age on the dock. James is mesmerized by the blond youth, Otto, who also seems attracted to James. Otto is German, and he and his father are on the dock seeing off Otto’s mother. It’s 1939, and what will become World War II is just starting in earnest. Otto makes his father buy the mussels from James, and before he knows it, James and his sister Bella are employed by Otto’s father to take care of their home. Otto and James soon become more than friends and are committed to finding a way to be together. As if their relationship weren’t dangerous enough, the two young men do what they can to help refugees from Nazi Germany. It’s a course of action that could get the two killed.

  7. "Davo" is a quirky #mmRomance between a big-city academic and a mechanic who likes to wear skirts set in the rough-and-tumble world of a #contemporary Australian mining camp by N.R. Walker

    When academic researcher Fergus lands in a remote mining camp in the far reaches of Western Australia, he's expecting a change of scenery, but he's totally unprepared for the extreme conditions of the desert, as well as the quirky collection of permanent residents that call the town home. The biggest surprise of all is Davo. The muscular mechanical supervisor has a sunny disposition with a totally disarming smile, and likes to wear skirts. And, nobody bats an eye. Fergus is instantly attracted to the man, and the feeling is mutual. The two quickly form an intimate relationship, but both know there's a time limit on it, since Fergus is only there for a few weeks to interview people before flying back to Sydney.

  8. Today’s review: “Farfall” by J.C. Owens. #fantasy #MMRomance #GayBookReviews

    Andon is unique among the corps of elite griffin riders. He wasn’t born to a noble house. Andon grew up on the streets and then spent most of his youth in the mountains, where he met and bonded with a wild griffin. Griffins and their riders mate for life, so when the pair are discovered, they’re both sent to the training academy and then posted to the frontier fort of Farfall. Neither are really accepted by the troops, who see Andon as beneath them and are suspicious of a wild-born griffin. Andon’s only friend is killed when he and his entire wing are attached by the viscous wiverns. Daren and his four wing members are sent from a neighboring fort to reinforce Farfall. Daren quickly becomes fascinated by Andon, and when he witnesses the bad treatment the weapons officer is subject to, he becomes protective.

  9. "Dominus" is an epic series by J.P. Kenwood about forbidden #gay love between a Roman general in line to be emperor and an enslaved captured Dacian who isn't what he at first appears, set in the first-century Roman empire.

    General Gaius Fabius returns to Rome in triumph from the Dacian wars but soon finds himself restless for a new challenge. Somewhat bored with his current stable of pleasure slaves, Gaius finds his challenge in the form of Allerix, a Dacian prisoner put up for auction. Gaius decides to make Allerix his new boy toy, but taming the young man may be more of a challenge than Gaius bargained for.

  10. “Release” is a #dystopian #SciFi #MMRomance by Marie Sexton.

    Misha grew up in the “trenches” of lower Davlova, where the poorest citizens scratch out a living without technology while the high-born “purebloods” live in electrified luxury behind the walls of the inner city on the hill. Misha gets taken in by one of the clans, criminal gangs that run all sorts of operations in the city. Over the years, Misha learned the fine art of pickpocketing. Sometimes he also turns tricks to see if a potential mark had a lot of money, and where he kept it.

    One day, the clan leader offers Misha a new opportunity. One of the most powerful men in the city is looking for a new toy boy and wants someone “exotic.” The clan leader isn’t just asking Misha to prostitute himself. She wants him to gain the man’s confidence and learn his secrets. The information may provide the catalyst that starts a revolution.
