Review - The Auction Lot: Sold to the Billionaire by L.M. Somerton
My rating:
Ethan is about to graduate from university. Like most students these days, he’s racked up a big pile of student loans to pay off. On top of that are debts he and his brother incurred when their father got ill before he died. Getting into the sub auction would not only allow him to pay off his debts but ensure a comfortable life after the one year contract. Plus, it would allow him to experience the full-time submissive lifestyle he thinks he wants.

Review - A Single Soul by L.A. Witt
My rating:
Matt is a very successful lawyer whose practice mainly involves negotiating disagreements between humans and tricksters, such as the fae. Nobody knows better than him that you don’t ask the fae for favors. In Matt’s defense, he was quite drunk when he poured his heart out to his matchmaker client about the poor state of his love life. That excuse won’t get him out of the contract, though. For now, Matt is stuck with an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other, charged with helping the man find a companion.

Review - Grayson Ryder: A Thief's Thrill by M. L. Giles
My rating:
Grayson Ryder is quite the bad boy. He is a pickpocket and a thief, although he only steals enough for him and his sister to get by. It’s not just a lack of job skills that keeps Grayson stealing. He enjoys the thrill and danger of it. When most of the world’s people are killed by a devastating disease, Grayson’s skills suddenly become very useful among the survivors.
