Genre: Romance / Contemporary / Action & Adventure / Gay /
Notes: I read this first book in this series and really loved it. So I'm going for the second and it's coming out on audio soon.
Blurb: Felix and Lane are trying out their new normal. Normal means no more car chases, no more drug lords, and definitely no more kidnapping bad guys. All of that is a thing of the past in this new, normal(ish) life style filled with family get-togethers, torturous jogs through the park, and the occasional romp in the parking lot. Felix is done stealing (all but for the cat). He is actually enjoying the boring side of life, especially with Lane by his side doing what he does best: looking handsome. But when Felix’s brother wants to repair their relationship, he brings with him a secret that could cost all of them their lives. Lane isn’t complaining because the thrills of life-threatening situations are right up his alley. They may think they have a handle on the situation, but what they do not know is that someone has been working them from the shadows. Forcing them to do exactly what he wants as he drives them closer to his sick game of life and death.
Join Felix and Lane in a race against time, their only weapons being their humor and their wit.

Now Burner has to face monsters he thought were just stories told to scare pups, and he must traverse a world he’s only seen in old magazines.

Length: 172 pages
Publisher:
Genre: Romance / Urban Fantasy / Paranormal / Vampires / Gay /
Notes:
Blurb: Avery
Human beings are nothing but lowly trash. Fit only for consumption. That's my motto in life and why I avoid everything to do with them beyond an evening meal. Then he shows up with his delicious scent, and I can't seem to resist hunting him down. But when my hunt gets interrupted by a spray of bullets and I become the prey, I find myself falling into some strange rabbit hole where I have to rely on this incredible smelling human with strange powers to stay alive. How freakin' peachy is that?
Ryker
Being left on the doorstep of a church when I was infant meant my life began shrouded in questions. And that's how it has remained. Question after question. For a human, I have magical powers I don't understand. After all, magic went extinct a few hundred years ago. I shouldn't exist the way I do. Spending my life in the shadows has always been the safest place. Then a snarky wildcat of a vampire literally passes out in my lap, and my instincts kick into overdrive. Protect him at all costs. Even if I want to strangle him half the time.
Fractured Truth is the first book in the Consequences of a Sin series which follows Avery and Ryker as they try to find the truth behind a Sin that altered the history of their world. Each book will end with a HFN (or close to it) while the overarching plot continues into the next book. Some cliffhangers are likely.
Title: Summon the Keeper
Series: (Keeper's Chronicles Book 1)
Author(s): Tanya Huff
Length: 366 pages
Publisher: DAW (June 7, 2005)
Genre: Contemporary Fantasy / Romantic Elements / Mystery / Humor /
Notes: I finished reading this and I probably won't continue with the series. I barely liked the Keeper, and since she's the MC that's an issue. My other problem is that it seems to be connected to The Gails series, but the explanation of the paranormal world with Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins was seriously lacking, in my opinion. It was explained much better in the other series. I loved the Gails so I'll be continuing with that one and will leave this one alone.
Blurb: Austin was a black and white, far-from-young cat. Not just any cat, mind you, he was the Keeper’s cat, a very outspoken feline with extremely strong opinions he was always willing to voice. After all, who knew better than Austin what was best for the well-being of Claire—and for the not-quite-as-important rest of the universe?
Claire Hansen was a Keeper, a member of that select group that kept the universe in one piece. And now she’d been Summoned to the Elysian Fields Guesthouse, a rundown bed-and-breakfast that seemed to attract the most unusual clientele. And Claire was not happy about this latest assignment, not happy at all.
Not when she’d been tricked into taking over here by a horrible little gnome of a man who’d abandoned his post before she’d even figured out who he really was. Not when room six held a resident who’d been sleeping there for so many years that she really needed a good dusting—except that it was far too dangerous for anyone to get that close to her. Not when the basement housed too much temptation for anyone’s mental health. Not when she found herself surrounded by “helpers” as distracting as Dean, the hunky-yet-innocent handyman, and Jacques, a ghost with a real lust for life.
And especially not when it looked like this might be the not only her most challenging mission, but one she’d be stuck handling for life....
Title: Havesskadi
Series:
Author(s): Ava Kelly
Length: 254 pages
Publisher: Less Than Three Press; 1 edition (February 26, 2018)
Genre: Fantasy / Dragons / Panromantic / Pansexual / Asexual
Notes:
Blurb: Nevmis, the red dragon, is hunting her own. Up in the icy peaks of the northern mountains, Orsie spends his lonely days hiding from her, but eventually he is found and his dragon magic stolen. Cursed to wander the lands as a mortal unless he recovers his magic before twenty-four rising crescents have passed, Orsie embarks on an arduous journey. Spurred by the whispers in his mind, his quest takes him to a castle hidden deep in a forest.
Arkeva, a skilled archer, is trapped in an abandoned castle deep in the woods, his only company two companions—one kind, the other cruel. Then a stranger arrives, a young man who soon finds himself confined by heavy snowfalls—and in danger from what slumbers in the shadows of the castle.
Title: I'm Your Guy
Series: shifters and partners, 21
Author(s): Hollis Shiloh
Length: 190 pages
Publisher:
Genre: Romance / Paranormal / Gay /
Notes: What I enjoy about this series is that I can pretty much read them in any order that I want after a certain point. There are sometimes returning characters but they are well explained so the reader isn't left feeling like there is missing information or background. This one though, there is a side character, Frankie, who I would love to read more about.
Blurb: Harris and James served in the military together, back in the day. Now one is a cop and one is a private eye, but they're both barely making it.
James, half-wolf and secretive about it, has had confused feelings for Harris for a long time. Figuring out he was gay was pretty damned painful, and the only guy he has any real interest in is never going to feel the same way.
As for Harris? Definitely straight. It's odd that he notices guys sometimes, but he's always dated girls. Maybe a little desperately. It's not something he thinks about much — except for when he does.
These days, they try to stay away from each other, but that's not always possible. Throw a sassy fox shifter into the mix, and the things they've both tried to hide might come out after all.

Author(s): Jamie Lynn
Length: 159 pages
Publisher:
Genre: Romance / Sci-Fi / Revolution / Mpreg /
Notes: I read this and forgot to post it, I think.
Blurb: This book is about a handsome man named Sean (who just so happens to be a porn star). He finds himself abducted and dropped into an auction on an alien planet. Deemed unworthy of going through the sale due to the scar on his lip, he is unceremoniously dumped outside of the auction house to die in a dust storm. He is rescued by one of the residents of the planet. Da'Ceer is a slave who worked his way up to being a token security guard in the marketplace. He had brought his little brother with him to work on the worst possible day. When he stumbled over Sean who had already become buried in a sand drift he picked him up carried him to a shelter within the city for the slaves . Due to the poor maintenance within the shelter, it proves to be a death trap for the cold-blooded residents of the planet. Sean, being warm-blooded, kept the alien and his younger brother alive and warm enough that they were able to survive the fridged shelter. They survived the first storm, but the battle to survive had only just begun. Sean and his new alien friend become a bit more than just friends. The new turn in their lives is difficult for both of them to accept, but when they are forced to flee along with Da'Ceer's family
There are plenty of plot twists in this book and I hope that people will be drawn in for the usual MC's because I found them a pleasure to write about. This is the first book, but there will be more!
This book is a m/m romance, alien abduction romance, AND an mpreg.
Title: Blood Red Roulette
Series:
Author(s): Jana Denardo
Length: 350 pages
Publisher: DSP Publications (November 13, 2018)
Genre: Romance / Paranormal / Vampire / Bisexual /
Notes: releases 11/13
Blurb: Arrigo Giancarlo’s friends think he's a rich young man with the unusual job of paranormal investigator, working with his psychic assistant in Las Vegas. In truth he’s a two-thousand-year-old vampire and member of the Chiaroscuro, a group of Supernaturals dedicated to keeping humanity safe from the more dangerous of their kind. He’s also openly bisexual… but alone.
When he spots Luc St. John in a bar, Arrigo is intrigued. What begins as an effort to repay the kindness shown to him in the past quickly turns into much deeper feelings for the suffering and displaced Cajun. For Luc’s part, he feels too poor, too uneducated, and too bound to his hateful family to ever be worthy of elegant and cultured Arrigo.
An old enemy, Eleni, blames Arrigo for murdering her true love. On the anniversary of that death, she’s back to take revenge. As Arrigo’s closest friends fall victim to savage attacks, he fears nothing will keep Luc safe. Should he break both their hearts and let Luc go, or is it too late? If Luc’s already in Eleni’s sights, Arrigo knows that like most things in Vegas, the odds are against him.
Title: Willa's Beast
Series: Icehome, 3
Author(s): Ruby Dixon
Length: 294 pages
Publisher:
Genre: Romance / Sci-Fi / Aliens /
Notes: This is one of those series that you can read out of order. I didn't read the first two of the books of Icehome and it didn't make a difference. The returning characters were explained sufficiently that I wasn't lost. I do love Dixon's barbarian aliens. I am going back to read the other two books. :) I was just in the mood for this particular story.
Blurb: Beast. Creature. Monster.
Dangerous.
All of these things have been said about Gren.
Willa doesn't believe it, though. She knows that monsters can sometimes come in appealing packages. She knows that for all of his snarls and fearsome appearance, he'd never hurt her.
And she knows she has to get Gren away from the Icehome camp, because no one will ever see him as a person, not when he attacks all who come close. Not when he's tied and treated like an animal.
She's going to save him...or fall in love. Maybe both. Willa doesn't mind that he's a beast, as long as he's *her* beast.
Thank you for stopping by and reading!!
