My rating: 
Submissive Jarod served his master Phillip for more than 20 years, but then Phillip dies in a plane crash leaving his sub with nobody to care for. It takes him several years of grieving before he can convince himself to go to a club again in the hopes of finding a new Dom. At 50 years old, he knows his chances are slim. What Dom is going to want a mature sub?
Review - Blood & Milk by N.R. Walker
My rating:
Heath and his boyfriend Jarrod are attacked outside a Sydney pub one night in a brutal gay bashing. Jarrod dies but Heath survives, although he is not really among the living. The pain of the loss and guilt over surviving makes it hard to go on. Heath has always believed in the prescience of his dreams, and one night he dreams of Jarrod in Africa, among the Maasai. With very little planning or thought, he books a one-way ticket to Tanzania.
Review - Lonely Shore by Jenn Burke and Kelly Jensen
My rating:
Spoiler alert: If you haven’t read the first installment of this series, then you had best stop reading this review now, since we can’t really discuss the second book without reavealing how the first left off. This second volume of the Chaos Station series picks up just a few weeks after the end of “Chaos Station”. Zed is trying to settle in as a member of the crew, but everyone, especially his lover Flick, knows that he is living on borrowed time.

Review - Status Update by Annabeth Albert
My rating:
Game developer Adrian and geoarchaeology professor Noah meet quite by chance in a Utah RV campground when Adrian’s would-be boyfriend abandons him with just the clothes he’s wearing and his tiny dog Pixel. The heavily closeted teacher and outgoiong young programmer seem like an unlikely pair, but there’s still an attraction, even with the odds stacked against them. “Status Update” is a tale of a very unlikely romance. The two men’s meeting may be an amazing coincidence, but their struggle to find a way to have a relationship seems very real.
Review - Kestrel's Talon by Bey Deckard
My rating:
As a soldier for Nemarri, “Kestrel” is taken prisoner by the Pren, where he is raped by a fellow prisoner. When the war is over, the Nemarri view him as ‘unclean’ and refuse to take him back so the Pren sell him off as a sex slave. Kestrel (the name the pleasure house that owns him gave him) is on display in the market one day when he catches the eye of Count Strade, or rather, the count’s rather quirky and very beautiful slave, Talon.

Review - The New Boy by Sean Michael
My rating:
Lance is a talented young photographer with a potentially lucrative commission to produce a series of kinky cards for a private collector, but he can only collect that big paycheck if he can find the right models to pose for the pictures. He begins to despair of finding the right men when Tide shows up for an interview, along with his friends Tyrone and his submissive Bran. Right away he knows that maintaining a professional demeanor behind the camera with three hot men getting kinky in front of him is going to be difficult.
Review - Hector and Anatolius by Vanessa Mulberry
My rating:
In Homer’s epic recounting of the Trojan war, the Iliad, prince Hector was Troy’s greatest warrior but, he tends to excite little interest from modern day authors looking for inspiration. “Hector and Anatolius” tells the story of Hector before the Greeks, or even Helen, arrive. Hector is the dutiful son and heir to king Priam in most respects, except in his resistance to find a woman to marry. His inclinations lie in another direction entirely.

My rating:
Childhood friends Felix (‘Flick’) and Zander (‘Zed’) grew up together, entered military service together, and for a few short days after graduating from the military academy, they became lovers. War with the alien race called the Stin pulled them apart to different duties within the earth forces. Felix is captured by the enemy and declared dead. Zed is pulled into a covert operation to create super-soldiers before the war comes to an abrupt end, and he is unceremoniously cut loose.
Review - Scars and Secrets by Avril Ashton
My rating:
One day, single bi dad Levi meets Donovan seemingly by accident in a supermarket checkout line. Ten years later, Levi is still picking up the pieces of the relationship he had with the man who turned out to be a government agent, who dragged him into a dark world of covert operations and constant fear for his life, and his son’s. Donovan didn’t mean to fall for the man he was supposed to seduce, gather information from, and leave within three months, but he did.
