Review: Best Men by Sidney Karger

May 10, 2023 by Kate H. Leave a Comment

Best Men by Sidney KargerLGBTQ+ Contemporary RomanceMay 2, 2023 by Berkley Review by Kate H. Max Moody is missing a gay gene or two. He’s not interested in fashion; he doesn’t know where the nearest “drag karaoke bingo barbecue” is being held in NYC; and he is hopeless at wedding planning.  But his best friend, Paige, has asked him to be her Best Man, and Chasten, her future brother-in-law, and the other Best Man is helping plan the wedding.  Only guess Continue Reading

Kate H’s Mini-Reviews: Diversion Plan by Tag Gregory and Endless, Forever by E.M. Lindsey

May 5, 2023 by Kate H. Leave a Comment

Diversion Plan by Tag Gregory The book Diversion Plan is set in Portland, Oregon, and uses a court-ordered diversion program for drug and alcohol issues much in the way other romances might use getting lost in a blizzard or stranded on an island: as a chance for its main characters to really get to know one another.  Brent, a workaholic who hews to the safety of routines after having survived an abusive, manipulative ex-boyfriend, is the manager at a hotel. Guthrie is the Continue Reading

Review: Love Thy Brother by Garrett Leigh

March 29, 2023 by Kate H. 1 Comment

Love Thy Brother by Garrett LeighRebel Kings MC #4LGBTQ+ Contemporary RomanceMarch 29, 2023 by Fox Love Press Reviewed by Kate H. Garrett Leigh’s Rebel Kings MC series is unrelenting in the best of ways, and the fourth and latest installment, Love Thy Brother, is no exception.  The recommendation to read it as part of the series and not a standalone is a wise one.  For one, Leigh doesn’t do a lot of background at the beginning of the novel to catch Continue Reading

Review: Saffron Wilds by Kai Butler

March 10, 2023 by Angela 2 Comments

Saffron Wilds by Kai ButlerSan Amaro Investigations #6LGBTQ Urban FantasyFebruary 28, 2023 - Self Published Review by Angela This is such a fantastic urban fantasy series, that in my opinion, does not get enough attention. Saffron Wilds is the sixth book in the San Amaro Investigations series featuring Parker Ferro, a man who wears many hats... private investigator, consultant for the local police department, and The Windrose to the fae. Parker and his lover, now fiancee, Continue Reading

The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen by K.J. CharlesThe Doomsday Books #1LGBTQ Historical RomanceMarch 7, 2023, by SourcebooksARC Review by Angela Writing a coherent review without gushing over and over about how much I loved this book will be challenging, but I'll give it my best shot. The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen starts out by introducing London and Kent, two men who meet while frequenting the same pub. They've been trysting for a week and relishing their time together Continue Reading

Review: Sorry, Bro by Taleen Voskuni

February 2, 2023 by Kate 1 Comment

Sorry, Bro by Taleen VoskuniLGBTQ Contemporary RomancePublished by Berkley on January 31, 2023Reviewed by Kate As an Armenian-American (and a bisexual one, at that), I both feel super qualified and yet totally unprepared to review Taleen Voskuni’s debut novel Sorry, Bro. I’m coming from a place where I unabashedly loved this book before I even read it, and I don’t know that I am the most fair and unbiased reader. Armenian-Americans have very little representation in the general media, Continue Reading
