Review - Scream and Steam by TJ Nichols
My rating: 
The monsters under your bed were real. Farrow is one of them. It’s his job to scare young children to keep his world safe from the magic kids can unwittingly wield. Farrow is on assignment one night to scare a little girl who has moved to a new house when he accidentally encounters a young man who is in the midst of some vigorous self-pleasure. He surreptitiously films the young man, Timothy, and puts the video online in his world’s version of OnlyFans.

Review - Leave by L.A. Witt
My rating:
Riley and Nolan have been roommates-with-benefits in their off-base apartment for a while. While the encounters are enjoyable, Nolan keeps Riley at arms length and disappears soon after they both orgasm. When Nolan is asked to be his little brother’s best man, a request he feels he can’t refuse, he reveals he was sexually assaulted when he was a teenager, although he won’t reveal details. Nobody in Nolan’s family knows, and the abuser is still around the immediate family, so being among them is a potential mine field.

Review - Root & Stem by BL Sparrow
My rating:
It’s been ten years since Kieran set foot in his father’s house and he’d rather be almost anywhere else, but he doesn’t seem to have a choice if he wants to save his career in professional hockey. It’s going to be very hard keeping his anger in check around his family, especially as they are, in part, the root cause of all the anger Kieran carries around. Not much has changed except for his half brother Theo.
Review - Song of Oestend by Marie Sexton
My rating:
Aren’s professor helped get him a job as a bookkeeper for a ranch in Oestend. It seemed like a favor at the time, but maybe it wasn’t. Oestend is about as far from the university in the capital as you can get. And, it turns out wraiths are real. If you go out at night, or even leave a window open, they will get to you and kill you. Deacon is the ranch foreman, and he keeps it running with an iron fist, if necessary.

There’s nothing Kevin likes more than pushing Bryan’s boundaries, but he is also very aware of how his friend reacts if Kevin goes too far.

Review - Loving, Books 7 - 9 by M.A. Innes
My rating:
Jeremy and Kevin are now living in the duplex the purchased, which they share with their best friends Maddox and Bryan. The four are more than just friends. They consider themselves family and both couples are part of the kink community. Living so close together means all four men are very aware of the intimate relationships each of them shares with their partner. With that knowledge comes some curiosity, but exploring those thoughts could cost them their friendship.
