Review - Ride the Lightning by Aimee Nicole Walker
My rating:
Army veteran Jonah enjoys his work on cyber-security for the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. At least, he would if he didn’t have the boss from hell. One of the few things making work bearable is his intern Avery, but even that is not without problems. Jonah is drawn to Avery, in his own words, like a moth to a flame, but the demons of his past have convinced Jonah that close relationships aren’t for him.

Review - Ziggy by Nora Phoenix and K.M. Neuhold
My rating:
Byron, who decides to use the stage name Ziggy for his porn career, is about to shoot his first scene for Kinky Boys. Unfortunately, when Marshall tries to discuss limits with Ziggy, it becomes very clear that the young man doesn’t know enough about kink to understand what he’s agreeing to. He doesn’t want to disappoint Hunter, who hired him, or Marshall. So, Marshall takes Ziggy in hand and manages to get him through his first two scenes with Dom Harley, but it’s clear Byron really isn’t into bondage, and the impact scene scares him completely, although he really gets into puppy play.

Review - The Pet and His Duke by Beryll Brackhaus and Osiris BrackHaus
My rating:
Robert was born and raised to be a “pet”, a pleasure slave trained to satisfy his master’s every sexual demand. It’s an unsettled life with no permanence. Masters can grow bored and trade him in, or gift him to someone else to curry favor, or he can be stolen by another jealous owner. All that and more has happened to Robert in his time, and now he’s back in a trader’s “inventory” to be sold on again, yet he’s all too aware that at his age he is well past his amuse-by date.
