Review - To See the Sun by Kelly Jensen
My rating: 
Gael has never seen the sun. He has lived all his live deep in the bowels of a huge city, so deep that even sunlight doesn’t penetrate. It’s an underworld ruled by crime families where life is cheap. Gael desperately wants to escape, especially after he has botched the latest assignment for the crime family that keeps him perpetually in their debt. Then a friend suggests that Gael is still young and good looking enough to qualify as a “mail order bride”.

Review - Serving Him by L.M. Somerton
My rating:
Although relatively inexperienced, Rowan knows he is a submissive. He has a strong desire to please and his current job at a small English inn doesn’t quite give him the scope to give all he can, or the satisfaction that comes with it. So, when he sees an ad for a job opening at an exclusive BDSM hideaway called “The Retreat” that is effectively for a house sub, he jumps at the chance to apply and is thrilled to get the job.

My rating:
In a world made up solely of males, university student Adrien is an omega, a male capable of bearing a child, and he is about to experience his first heat. Most omegas would have close family to arrange for an alpha to handle the delicate situation, but Adrien is all alone.

Review - Blow Down by J.L. Merrow
My rating:
Psychic plumber Tom Peretski is definitely not enjoying the publicity engendered from his last case, as recounted in Heat Trap. People either don’t take him seriously, or expect him to do tricks like a performing monkey. Among the latter is a hi-so acquaintance of his sister Cherry, who ropes Tom into demonstrating his abilities at a village fête. But when he sets out to find what’s hidden, he doesn’t expect to stumble over the dead body of the woman herself.

My rating:
Scott and Ryan have been friends since their days on their high school football team, and roommates since college. They’re both out but they have desires they haven’t shared with each other.

Then they meet Dare, a “twink” who nonetheless seems to know exactly what both men need, and is ready to give it to them, if he can just get them to talk to each other.
