My rating: 
Joe and Olly, along with Heath and Aiden, are looking forward to spending a few days at The Retreat, a new venture by their friend and owner of The Underground, Carey. Joe wants to take Olly's mind off his recent experiences as a hostage, which also means he has no intention of telling his sub that Olly's former tormentor has been released from prison. Once they return to The Edge, it will be a mad scramble to get everything ready for the tenth anniversary of the business.

Review - Mind Controlling the Twins by Adara Wolf & R. Phoenix
My rating:
Content warning: The book in this review contains non-consensual sex and incest. Nathaniel and Basile are twins who have been sold off by their parents to pay off the money they embezzled. With any luck, they've been purchased by an old lady who just wants a couple of cute young men to clean house, but when they find out their owner is Lord Aetherton, Nathaniel knows they're in trouble. He saw the lord molest another student at university but used his magic to ensure the young man had no memory of the rape.

Review - Malena MCD by Beryll Brackhaus and Osiris BrackHaus
My rating:
Mauve is a ‘pet,’ a genetically engineered sex slave, and not a fancy one, either. His genes didn't produce quite what the breeders hoped for, so he ended up in the bargain bin. He's had a succession of brutal, uncaring owners from the underbelly of Malicorn society who used him and passed him on when they became bored. His latest master has been shot dead, along with his gang of thugs, and so Mauve is now ‘evidence’ in the investigation.
Review - Debauchery by Young
My rating:
Young and his guardian-lover Andy are about to start their next tour of service as harem boys in a Middle-Eastern household. Their next master is the “prince” of a gulf state, and the young men already know the man has some extreme tastes. Navigating the intrigues of the royal family as well as the demands of the prince's guests from European nobility is going to prove challenging for the pair.

My rating:
On the eve of his twentieth birthday, Alistair feels more lonely than ever. His parents are going out, without him. They never take him to any of the parties they go to almost every night. The two hardly interact with Alistair at all. He's had tutors but has never been to school. Then, that night, his parents are killed. When their will is read, it presents Alistair with a choice: He can live on an impossibly small allowance until he's 25, or if Alistair attends Misselthwaite college for a year, he can come into his full inheritance.

Bobby Ray is confused enough to abandon the attempt to take a life, for now.

Review - Driven to The Edge by L.M. Somerton
My rating:
Joe and Olly have been living their happily-ever-after for a couple of years. Joe would like nothing more than to keep his sub close, but Olly is good at his job as a nurse at a nearby military hospital. What starts as a typical day of getting some new patients settled turns into a series of traumatic events for Olly and all the men in his life. Although most of the books in the Tales From The Edge series are more or less standalone, this story is a sequel to the first two books, so you really need to have read the first book, Reaching the Edge, and the second, Living on the Edge, before this one to get a complete understanding of the relationship Joe and Olly have.
