But he doesn’t leave a life of crime completely behind. Cam can’t resist scamming the people who stop by his little garage, over-charging them for minor repairs by making them out to be more than they are.

Review - Priddy's Tale by Harper Fox
My rating:
Nineteen year-old Priddy is slowly recovering from a near overdose in the small Cornish fishing town where he grew up. It isn’t easy. He has a hard time focusing on anything for very long, and still seems to hallucinate from time to time. Priddy’s best friend Kit, who feels responsible for Priddy’s overdose, arranges for him to get a job as the lighthouse keeper. It isn’t a job that requires a lot, as it’s a automated lighthouse.

Review - Blood & Milk by N.R. Walker
My rating:

Review - Lonely Shore by Jenn Burke and Kelly Jensen
My rating:
Spoiler alert: If you haven’t read the first installment of this series, then you had best stop reading this review now, since we can’t really discuss the second book without reavealing how the first left off. This second volume of the Chaos Station series picks up just a few weeks after the end of “Chaos Station”. Zed is trying to settle in as a member of the crew, but everyone, especially his lover Flick, knows that he is living on borrowed time.

Review - Status Update by Annabeth Albert
My rating:
Game developer Adrian and geoarchaeology professor Noah meet quite by chance in a Utah RV campground when Adrian’s would-be boyfriend abandons him with just the clothes he’s wearing and his tiny dog Pixel. The heavily closeted teacher and outgoiong young programmer seem like an unlikely pair, but there’s still an attraction, even with the odds stacked against them. “Status Update” is a tale of a very unlikely romance. The two men’s meeting may be an amazing coincidence, but their struggle to find a way to have a relationship seems very real.
Review - Kestrel's Talon by Bey Deckard
My rating:
As a soldier for Nemarri, “Kestrel” is taken prisoner by the Pren, where he is raped by a fellow prisoner. When the war is over, the Nemarri view him as ‘unclean’ and refuse to take him back so the Pren sell him off as a sex slave. Kestrel (the name the pleasure house that owns him gave him) is on display in the market one day when he catches the eye of Count Strade, or rather, the count’s rather quirky and very beautiful slave, Talon.

Review - The New Boy by Sean Michael
My rating:
Lance is a talented young photographer with a potentially lucrative commission to produce a series of kinky cards for a private collector, but he can only collect that big paycheck if he can find the right models to pose for the pictures. He begins to despair of finding the right men when Tide shows up for an interview, along with his friends Tyrone and his submissive Bran. Right away he knows that maintaining a professional demeanor behind the camera with three hot men getting kinky in front of him is going to be difficult.
Review - Hector and Anatolius by Vanessa Mulberry
My rating:
In Homer’s epic recounting of the Trojan war, the Iliad, prince Hector was Troy’s greatest warrior but, he tends to excite little interest from modern day authors looking for inspiration. “Hector and Anatolius” tells the story of Hector before the Greeks, or even Helen, arrive. Hector is the dutiful son and heir to king Priam in most respects, except in his resistance to find a woman to marry. His inclinations lie in another direction entirely.
