Review - A Suitable Stray (For an Outguard and an Assistant) by R. Cooper
My rating:
Tiiran is technically just an assistant, but with no Keepers around, he does his best to keep the Great Library running under the latest king, who doesn’t seem to know the library exists. The other assistants look up to him, even though Tiiran has a short temper and a tendency to snarl at the nobles who come to the library. Tiiran’s sharp tongue and half-fae parentage keep even most of the brave outguards away, except for Orin.

Review - Tarsus by J.C. Owens
My rating:
Bullied by his warlord father, Tarsus has never known kindness. Everyone looks down on him because of his white hide and silvery hair. When their renegade fortress is captured by the Queen’s army, Tarsus expects to die along with everyone else. Instead of killing him, the Queen’s daughter gives Tarsus to her brother Varan, who makes the young centaur his servant. Tarsus still expects to die eventually, when Varan tires of him.
Review - Forget Me Not by R. Cooper
My rating:
Police detective Ray wakes up in an alley feeling drained, which, for a werewolf, is very strange. His keen sense of smell senses magic, which explains how someone overpowered him. He’s just getting his bearings when some people appear at the mouth of the alley. One of them is human and also smells of magic, but the other is a fairy, or perhaps a half-fairy. He is very pretty, as fairies are, and claims to be Ray’s mate.
