Review - Jocks for Sale Parts 12 - 14 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 (14 in total). I'm reviewing it in batches, so there's a more coherent picture of the entire story. It seems like it was a long wait, but more episodes of this serial finally appeared and now they’ve made it to the top of my reading list. The last installment (Part 11) ended with a sort of failed coup on the island which saw the Boss’s second in command, Luca, being made a slave.

My rating:
Josh is happy Noah and Indy have found each other, even if Noah still needs Josh’s “help” to calm down sometimes.

Review - Fox of Fox Hall by R. Cooper
My rating:
Fox was orphaned at a young age. Neighboring farmers took him in for a while, but his youth and small size meant he wasn’t much good for farm work, and sooner or later, Fox was just another mouth to feed. So, the youth found himself on his own, but he was clever, had a good ear for music, and an excellent memory for all the popular ballads of the day.

Review - Dragon's Dawn by Sam Burns and W.M. Fawkes
My rating:
Genya has been raised mostly by his mother. The slightly built young man spends his time having tea with the ladies of the court rather than in the “manly” pursuits preferred by his older brother and father. Genya has learned that it’s better to stay out of his father’s scheming sights. At nineteen years old, it can’t last. Genya expects to be married off one day, but is surprised when his father agrees to a plan by the king’s brother to have Genya wed Prince Mikhail.
Review - The Last Nights of the Frangipani Hotel by Bey Deckard
My rating:
Actor James Talbot is enjoying his vacation at a run-down hotel on a Caribbean island. The resort may have been grand at one time, but the years have taken their toll. Few people stay there these days, especially in the off-season, and that suits James just fine. His solitude is interrupted by the arrival of a guest who takes the cabin right next to James. The guest turns out to be another actor, Rudie, whom James has worked with in the past.
