Brisket and Deadly Tension
Sho Tanaka’s sister Jenny is entering a local barbecue competition, and Sho and Levi Blue are going along to show their support. Sho immediately notices all the tension between the other professional contestants. But he isn’t prepared when he and Levi stumble over a dead body. With the evidence pointing to Jenny, Sho is quick to jump into the investigation. Who is cooking up more than barbecue?

Quite often when I start a mystery, it’s easy to see who the victim will be. That wasn’t the case here, which is something I loved. I did feel the pacing was off in the first half, but I still enjoyed the book and was satisfied when we reached the end. I love these characters. They are strong with great relationships. While the book deals with some serious topics, like early onset dementia and prescription drug addiction, it is a comedic mystery, and I laughed quite a few times. The competing tones are balanced perfectly, making for a richer reading experience. It’s going to be a long wait for me until the next in the series comes out. If you haven’t started this series yet, fix that today.

HOW TO TRAIN YOUR HUMAN OMEGA is the first book in the Coveted Bonds series. We start with Clay in space. He's a pilot and is currently helping a group of scientists investigate a wormhole. Arcay is an Aldar - a seven-foot-tall purple alien. As soon as Arcay sees Clay, he knows he is an omega and wants to claim him. He kidnaps Clay and takes him back to the Aldar ship. And then the fun starts...

This was a great read, easy to follow, and with a reenactment of one of my favourite scenes from Beauty and the Beast! The cultural and language misunderstandings are amusing, as well as the inner monologues. There are also some darker topics mentioned, so be warned.

There were some parts left loose, so I'm hoping there will be an ongoing arc throughout the series. A great start to a new series that I thoroughly enjoyed. Definitely recommended by me.
