Miles the Mouse? Don't make me laugh.
REVENGE IS SWEET is a standalone story about Lyon and Miles. Both of them have trauma in their past and don't trust easily, which makes it even worse when it is someone close to them, whom they trust completely, who breaks whatever relationship they had.

Oh, but I loved this story. I knew from the start Lyon was going to worm his way into my heart, and he did. I knew Miles would too, but not how much. My god, but I loved him. Miles the Mouse indeed. Don't make me laugh. He is as sharp as a rapier and nobody's fool. I loved seeing him grow and shine, with Lyon's full support and admiration.

The less said about Dan and Lindsey, the better. Those two I didn't like all the way through.

Uncle Harry and Maxwell? Let's just say Uncle Harry's story made my eyes leak and leave it at that.

This was a gorgeous, beautiful, heart-warming story that I adored and have no hesitation in recommending. I loved every word.

THE VERY MERRY OMEGA is a standalone novella set in the Unexpected Omegas universe.

As you may have guessed from the title, it's Christmas and time for the Work Christmas Party! What fun, right?! Yeah, maybe not if social situations make you anxious or are just not your thing. Enter Zach and Alex.

What I loved most about this is that the Omega and Alpha genes have all but disappeared. No one knows about them much anymore. But then someone's gene shows up and everything changes again. Zach has the Omega gene, Alex the Alpha. They both go with the flow, not knowing 100% what is going on, but wanting to see where their attraction takes them. It is hot and loving, with both of them finding what they need in the other.

I would have loved for this to be a full novel - if only to find out what happened when Alex first met Zach's mum (who I didn't really like, even if she does love Zach.)

A hot and spicy seasonal read that I thoroughly enjoyed and have no hesitation in recommending.

WILD BOY is the second novella in the Gay Monsters in Space series, but it can be read as a standalone.

Connor has had a rough life up until now and trusts nobody. He doesn't see any reason to change that once he gets kidnapped by Krel and told how wonderful everything is going to be from now on. Krel knows all about Connor's past, but he knows Connor is the one for him. He'll just have to show Connor just how much he loves him!

Okay, so if you don't like spankings, you may not like this story. Connors needs them - a lot! And Krel, well, he likes giving them to Connor because it normally leads to other things. Things that are hot and spicy and pleasurable to both parties.

I am thoroughly enjoying this series. The stories are off the charts hot, with great characters, and you don't have to worry about how deep the story is going. Sometimes, that's just what you need!

A great addition to the series and absolutely recommended by me.

THE QUID PRO QUO is the second book in the Bradfield Trilogy although you could, as I have, read it as a standalone.

It is set in 1920s England where magic comes alive in a not-so-fun way. Walt is the nurse to Sylvia's doctor, and the story starts with them being called to the village duck pond as a body has been found. The mystery unravels as the story progresses, giving you insight into a world 'other' than our own.

This is paced perfectly for a cosy mystery - with questions aplenty until it is all explained nicely and wrapped in a bow. I really want to read books one and three now (even though book three isn't even available yet) just to see where it takes me. The characters are wonderfully relatable and the world is both realistic and nostalgic in a rose-tinted glasses kind of way.

The story and characters held my attention from the beginning and kept me enthralled until the end. Thoroughly enjoyable and absolutely recommended by me.

TAPPED BY MY ROOMMATE is the third book in the Thrust Into Love series and could easily be read as a standalone as the connection is the college, not the people.

Ethan has just finished with his girlfriend, a real piece of work who had changed the locks before he could get his clothing or his lizard out of there. He ends up staying with Rhett, someone who always seems willing to help. When they share a drunken kiss, Ethan realises he may not be as straight as he thought. But just who will help him with his bi-curiosity?

I really enjoyed this book! Ethan and Rhett are both great characters with lots to learn. They are ably supported by a great cast of supporting characters who help them with their highs and lows.

This was both steamy and sweet. Told from both perspectives, you are with them as they make their own realisations about who they are and what they want.

A fantastic addition to the series and absolutely recommended by me.

WINTER'S HEART is a standalone novella about a prophecy, a girl, and a tiger. Who doesn't love a story like that?

Whilst there are romantic elements to this story, it isn't the only part. Lisa has been foretold for years as the saviour of the village, even though she has no magic to show for it. When killings start happening, it appears the white tiger is back and Lisa must kill it. Of course, it's not that simple.

I read this book in one sitting and enjoyed most of it. There didn't seem to be any punishment (or explanation) for Herk's behaviour towards Lisa and it was just glossed over after she had a 'word' with him.

The rest of it was better. I loved the descriptions of the village and the forests, especially that of the tiger. I would love to see a follow on from this story, seeing how Lisa and Elijah get on and how their budding romance develops.

A quick coffee break book that I definitely recommend.
