A Contemporary Gay Male Romance - Newly Released 2nd Edition

When Christopher Parker checks himself into the Watermeadow Rehabilitation Center, he was frightened for his future and what was to become of him. Haunted from his past, he knows that he has to take this step in his recovery or face his likely death as the alternative. He never expected to find his social worker, Jason Calhoun, incredibly attractive. Christopher dreams of finding a man to love and who will treat him with decency. Although Jason does fit the bill, he knows that this relationship is strictly professional. Completely out of reach for a failure like himself.

Jason, who is a hopeless romantic, is in the endless pursuit of Prince Charming. Always unlucky in love but finds solace in the care of his patients. He loves being needed and having patients that depend on him. Jason comes to realize that the guys he dates always need to be rescued, much like his patients. A strategy that he's learning is a poor choice.

Jason discovers that Christopher has become tangled up with a famed billionaire. As a billionaire, he can afford anything he wants, which seems to include even the ability to buy true love. Suddenly, he fears that everything he has worked so hard for, both romance and career, is being threatened by his new nemesis.

If you enjoy stories that pull you in and have you caring about the characters and what happens to them, then this is the book for you. It promises to have you laughing, crying, & smiling!

Hairpin Curve by Aesthetic_bane

Hairpin Curve by Aesthetic_bane

Magnus and Alec are dancers trying to make a living doing something they love. When Alec meets an enchanting dance instructor, he is immediately captivated. Although he loves spending time with Magnus, past hurts and scars always have a way of reappearing at the most inopportune times. Will Alec be able to push through those issues and live his best life with a wonderful man by his side?

This is a lovely story that I'm really enjoying. It's nice to see Magnus and Alec in this type of AU setting because I can easily imagine Magnus as a dancer since he's naturally graceful, and the actor who portrays him, Harry Shum Jr, is also a professional dancer. Imagining Alec doing ballet and jazz is a very pleasant thought. If you're in the mood for a story that is full of fluff with a nice dose of angst, Hairpin Curve is for you!

Heartbreaking trauma caused him to become mute and he has not spoken a single word in 10 years.

I always find soulmate AUs to be really sweet and this story is no exception. The added obstable of Alec's muteness adds an interesting element of suspense and tension that I liked. The relationship between Magnus and Alec is so incredibly adorable that you will fall in love with this couple many times over. Be sure to give this story a try! It's so worth it!

Book Review: Promise Me We'll Be Okay by Nell Iris

What do you do when your past comes knocking?

Six hundred and ninety-five days. That's how long it's been since Jude's fiancé broke off their engagement. With the help of his brother and his all-encompassing love for music, Jude glued the broken pieces of his heart back together, but when his ex shows up on his doorstep late one evening, Jude fears it will fall apart again.

Two years ago, Vincent made a terrible mistake. He left the love of his life for stupid, ill-advised reasons. It took a traumatic event to bring what was truly important in his life into focus. Older and wiser, he's now ready to do whatever it takes to win Jude back.

Their chemistry is as explosive as ever, but will they be able to work through the real issues? Can trust once broken be rebuilt?


This is a sweet, pretty uncomplicated read. All of the characters are likable and I enjoyed watching this small slice of their lives. Although I was happy with the overall direction Jude and Vincent's relationship took, it felt like it wrapped up a little too neatly and easily. To be honest, I expected more of a fight, but all in all, it was a pleasant second-chance-at-love story. The side character, Benji, really stole the show and I would love to see him get his own book one day.

3.5 stars

I received a copy of this book from the author and voluntarily provided my honest review.
