Review - The Gilded Mirror by L.M. Somerton
My rating: 
Landry and Gage have just moved in together and are browsing a flea market when Landry spots an interesting old mirror. The stall owner sells it for what Landry thinks is a ridiculously low price. While cleaning the mirror, he finds what looks like a treasure map, and the hunt is on. Meanwhile, Gage and his partner are engrossed in a money laundry investigation that seems to be going nowhere, until a friend of Landry's is mugged while delivering a package.
Review - Jocks for Sale Parts 8 - 11 by Josh Hunter
My rating:
“Jocks For Sale” is an erotic fantasy containing non-consensual sex and violence. It is offered in serialized form as connected installments (currently 11). I'm reviewing it in batches, so there's a more coherent picture of the entire story. Cody seems to be enjoying new privileges in Part 8. He's been given the job of training the ‘new boy’ Dane. Dane was a guest of the hotel who managed to insult all the staff and abuse all the slaves with his temperamental, entitled behavior.

Review - Full Circle by Blaine D. Arden
My rating:
Children in the village are falling ill, and it isn't just the usual summer-time fever that they usually recover from. When truth-seeker Kelnaht looks into what might be causing it, he finds links to an old crime by one of forester Taruif's predecessors. With Ianys' daughter at risk, it puts a considerable strain on the relationship between the three, as Kelnaht and Taruif race to track down the culprit and find a cure.
Review - Calarni by Beryll Brackhaus and Osiris BrackHaus
My rating:
Yaden and Ivan are off on another mission for the Lotus Knights. This time they're off to explore a new star system that's been found at the end of one of the gateways ships use to jump between systems. It seems simple enough, but Lotus Knight missions never go according to plan. Things go sideways rather spectacularly this time, and the pair find themselves in another galaxy with no apparent way home, or to even contact their friends.
Review - Dark Attraction by Drake LaMarque
My rating:
College surfer boy Brandon (‘Brand’) is looking for something. He just isn't sure what it is. He's tried guys. He's tried girls. But it's just been a series of one-night stands because something was missing. Then one night at a frat party, he spots Gage. The other man looks like a goth, but it's soon clear he's much more than that. Gage takes Brand back to his apartment, and against his better judgment, he lets the young man get under his skin.
Review - Jocks for Sale Parts 4 - 7 by Josh Hunter
My rating:
“Jocks For Sale” is an erotic fantasy containing non-consensual sex and violence. It is offered in serialized form as (currently 12) connected installments. I'm reviewing it in batches, so there's a more coherent picture of the entire story. College lacrosse jock Connor's transformation into sex slave Cody is nearly complete as Part 4 starts. Between the drugs, shocks, and sexual abuse, he's almost given up. But then he sees an opportunity to overpower his trainer Nick and takes it.

He gets caught hacking into corporate computer systems, but instead of sending him to jail, the judge assigns him to work at The Edge, a management retreat for corporate executives, among other things. Heath, one of the owners of The Edge, is in charge of overseeing Aiden's ‘rehabilitation.’ It's obvious from the start that Aiden's attitude will be a big challenge for Heath.
