Review - Private Charter by N.R. Walker
My rating:
Stuart is a high flier in the international finance, mergers, and acquisition business. It's a job that gives him a rush when it all comes together, but his doctor warns Stuart that the stress has him headed for a heart attack before he's 40 if he doesn't take some time off. So, he books a two-week private yacht charter out of Cairns and invites his friend-with-benefits along. Stuart is looking forward to 12 days of sun, sea, and sex, but his friend cancels on him at the last minute, leaving Stuart to go alone.

My rating:
Dallas Wilde is a paid assassin, and fish trainer. He takes on many dirty jobs, like tracking down and killing a necromancer, which is what he's doing when we first meet him.

To make matters worse, Dallas seems to have inherited a vampire thrall that insists on being his bodyguard.

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.

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.
