Review - The Wizard's Apprentice by Ryan DeVry
My rating:
Callum is apprenticed to one of the most powerful wizards in the land. He cooks and cleans, plus provides “stress relief” for his master when needed. Callum especially likes the stress relief duty, but so far, he hasn’t learned to do any magic himself. When the wizard gets busy with an especially difficult project, he has little time for Callum, and things get even worse when the Wizard calls in another apprentice.

Review - Farmed Out 2: City Heat by Alex Pendragon
My rating:
Mason is back home in the city but he can’t forget his experiences with Alfie and his friends back on the farm. He has a hard time reconciling what he did with the image he had of himself, and struggles to come to terms with what it means. There’s no going back, though, so he invites Alfie to visit him. If Mason thought being in the crowded big city would make Alfie moderate his reckless sexual behavior, he is sadly mistaken.

Review - To Love the Dragon King by Antonia Aquilante
My rating:
Sascha was born without the Talent to shift into a dragon, so he was raised to believe his only value was to be offered up as a concubine to bring his parents money and powerful connections. As soon as he comes of age, Sascha is packed off to Lord Jannick, whom he has never met. His sense of foreboding proves to be well founded when he arrives at the isolated castle to be met by an unattractive and clearly cruel man.

Review - A Suitable Brat by R. Cooper
My rating:
Westin is an outguard but is getting too old for the life on the road, sometimes sleeping rough, especially in the cold. He has resolved to retire and return to his family’s estate. There’s just one problem: another outguard called Sun. Unlike most outguards like Westin, Sun’s brief is wide-ranging, so their paths often crossed. The much younger man has a sharp tongue and a way of getting Westin, or almost anyone, to do exactly what he wants, which includes sharing a bed.
