Relationships sometimes get stuck and need a little extra nudge of something to kick it back into what it had been.

Steve and Carlos love each other but have drifted apart and both of them are suffering. A trip alone together takes an unexpected twist and they finally have a chance to talk out their problems. But do they want what they had again? Or….

This was a short story with a glimpse into the relationship of two male lovers. There was a hint of a paranormal twist as well. An enjoyable story, but too short for everything involved.

A nicely written story about the confusion and frustration of a man finally admitting to other people important in his life that he is gay.

David Livingston is in love with Marcus, but has never admitted to anyone else that he is gay. Going home to his family at Christmas with his lover will finally test him. Can he share with his family about the man he has finally become? Or will he decide to give up his first male lover?

For a very short story the characterization was good. The conflicts were obvious. I just wish the story could have been longer.

This is a second chance at love story for two people who had been used as pawns in politics between now non-existent races. No matter how much they wanted to dislike the other, the attraction was strong between them.

The characters are well developed, the conflicts intense, but the heat between them is hot, hot, hot. This is definitely a series you don’t want to miss.

In this book we get to meet four different women who are thrown together because of divorce. Maddie, Vicki, Katy and Maxie all come from different worlds yet find a special bond together from the first divorce support meeting that they have together. In this book we get to see each woman find her true soul mate. Seeing each of the woman and their men begin to bond and find love was a great read.

 

I loved seeing each woman’s transformation as they build their friendship. Maddie opens up and finds herself again after regaining her courage and self esteem. Victoria realizes what her ex and their marriage did to her and she finally lets go. Katy finds out just what she did wrong in the past and decides to fix it becoming a better person for it and Maxie becomes a stronger woman after the fight for her life that also brings her a wonderful savior.

 

I loved all of the men each of them adore their women and want nothing more than to keep them safe and happy. I enjoyed every story in this book. It is fast paced and keeps the reader interested all the way to the end. I truly adored Kellen and Kale. While each man is great these two really endeared themselves to me. Kellen and his love of karaoke was hilarious. He seems to love it even more than the women do. 

 

How many of us have wished that we could fix our lives and find love? This author does a wonderful job of showing us four great women who have done just that. This is a book that should not be missed.

This author is such a tease. She lured me into this series with the first book, Caveat Emptor: Charmed Lover, and I had to read and review this one. Now she leaves me hanging on, waiting for the next book, Caveat Emptor: Provoked Lover.

Ryver is a human who owns a vampire for home security reasons. When the charm that has kept him docile and subservient fails, they became lovers. She was ordered to turn him back to the mages in a mandatory recall, but she couldn’t do it. She couldn’t give him up and goes to his “world” in vampire territory.

Theron is a vampire who had been captured, trapped, and forced into obedience to a human. As his controlling charm failed, he became more and more her true lover. He isn’t willing to give her up or to have her jailed for not turning him back to the mages. He takes her with him to his home, but can he keep her safe there?

Great characters and they grow stronger with each book.

A hot one night stand leads to two changed lives.

Kacy Bonds is a law student and an exotic dancer in a club favoring shifters to pay her way through school. She doesn’t want a shifter for a mate. She isn’t sure what she wants except her law degree.

Enter Nash Reed, a sexy private investigating wizard, who is on a case. His problem is that meeting Kacy changes his life. Not only are they beyond hot together but also he needs her.

This is definitely a short, hot story.
