My Rating - 5 Stars!

All In With Him is a delicious sports romance by Lauren Blakely. 

This story follows Declan and Grant, two baseball players who are in love. Unlike most romance books, they're already together at the start. 

Instead of watching them fall in love, we get a chance to see what happens after people fall in love. This is the story that comes after the happy for now. 

Their story includes a lot of doubts and fears, as they go through some ups and downs. They still love each other, but for some, love isn't easy, as they struggle to keep things good. 

Their journey is emotional and heart-warming, as well as super hot. 

This is a story that explores that one has to be open to love and has to be ready for love. It's all beautifully done. 

Written in alternating first person pov, I enjoy how much the characters come to life. It's easy to follow their feelings throughout and everything flows wonderfully. 

All In With Him is a great addition to Lauren Blakely's Men of Summer series. I love everything about this baseball romance.

Your Only Fan (A Proper Education #3) by Rhys Everly

 


Amazon Link   - Available in KU  




He’s an adult star. He’s my crush. He’s my student.

Ever since Ezra Dixon walked into my classroom, I knew his name, his body and the color of his eyes.

I’ve been following his YourFan account for a very long time. He’s my secret, guilty pleasure.

Until my friend messages him on my behalf. And Ezra wants to meet me to film a video for his page.

I can’t show him my face. But I can show him my heart.

Your Only Fan is the third book in Rhys Everly’s steamy, low-angst, teacher/student romance series, A Proper Education.
It contains an adult star, a secret admirer, and high levels of steam and cuteness.





My Rating - 4 Stars!

Your Only Fan is the third book in the A Proper Education series. And this Rhys Everly tale is a teacher/student romance that starts off hot. 

I'm not a fan of teacher/students relationships, but this one is different. The two both long for the other secretly. And the student is an online sex worker who the teacher had the hots for long before meeting him. In other words, I had to see where this was going. 

And what did I find? Pure heat. And some mesmerizing emotions.

The forbidden romance element is well done, as of course the relationship is a no for them to be together. Not only is the teacher/student thing an obstacle, but Isaac doesn't want to come off as creepy so he hides his identity.

I love that Ezra falls for Isaac as both his teacher and his masked lover. 

It's a sweet story with plenty of secrecy, but even more feelings. 

They're definitely good together with amazing chemistry. But the best part is the way they are both complex characters. Each has different sides to them. Isaac is a strong, confident man as a teacher, but as the online fan, he's anything but confident. And Ezra is pretty much the opposite. It's a nice addition to the storyline. 

Your Only Fan is a fun teacher/student romance. This Rhys Everly book is pure delight.

Puzzle (White House Men #6) by Nora Phoenix

 


Amazon Link - Available in KU 
Goodreads Link




Branson loves his job as an analyst for the CIA. Working on the investigation into the assassination of the president is fascinating, and even more so when Ryder, a geeky forensic accountant without a filter, joins the team.

But Ryder doesn’t seem to like Branson. At all. And when he explains to Branson why, Branson is forced to face an uncomfortable truth in the mirror Ryder holds up. Somewhere along the way, he lost sight of who he really is.

As they make crucial breakthroughs in the investigation, Branson is determined to change and earn Ryder’s approval. It seems to work when his tentative friendship with Ryder gets benefits added to it. Really good benefits thanks to a bossy bottom who knows what he wants and Branson having just the right tool for the job.

Sparks fly high between them, and much more is at stake than Branson ever thought possible. Can he become a man worthy of Ryder’s love? Can he show Ryder, who’s got his own wounds and baggage, that he has truly changed?

Puzzle is the sixth book in the White House Men series, a continuing MM romantic suspense series set in the White House that needs to be read in order. It ends with a HEA. 




My Rating - 3.5 Stars!

Puzzle is the sixth book in Nora Phoenix's White House Men series. This political thriller/romance series needs to be read in order. 

Branson and Ryder's story is sweet, but something held me back from fully connecting to them. Unfortunately, I don't really know what it is.

Neither man is what you'd expect which makes things interesting. 
I enjoy Ryder's quirks and the way they're all illustrated. He's on the spectrum and is honest and blunt. Some people could definitely be annoyed by some of his personality traits, but it's all well written and authentic. 

Their romance is a slow burn one, with the romance being in the background as the main focus is on solving the case. But the sex is definitely hot. 

I enjoy getting a chance to see the pervious characters that we've all come to love. With a continuing mystery, things are again picking up and we're getting closer to having all the answers.

This one was harder for me to get through, as some chapters were from the pov of previous characters. As I listen to my books, this disrupts the flow. It's probably easier if I was reading it traditionally. 

Puzzle is a nice addition to the ongoing mystery. This Nora Phoenix book definitely contributes to helping to solve the case, but the romance fell a little flat for me.

BLOG TOUR & REVIEW - The Friendship Equation by J.R. Gray

 

 

  THE FRIENDSHIP EQUATION by J.R. Gray 
Release Date: August 25th 
Genre/Tropes: Contemporary Romance/Best friends to Lovers/Sports Romance/MM/Gay for you/Virgin Romance   


 


  AVAILABLE NOW! https://amzn.to/3zHkKSD     



America's future first son and his virgin best-friend in a sexy forbidden romance—can feelings stay out of their experimenting? 

I never thought I'd go to college a virgin, but unless something changes, and fast, that's what's going to happen. In comes Harden Hart, my All American boy-next-door best friend with an offer to help in a way I'd never imagined.

The boy who turned everything he touched to gold had a filthy side to him I'd never seen. Oh, and did I mention he's straight?

We could keep this fun but we had to hide it from both our fathers. We could smile for the cameras, focus on winning the state swimming championship and maintain Harden's image. Easy enough, right? 

Only Harden didn't want to hide. His addiction to our not-so-private hook-ups put everything at risk with his father's planned presidential run, and I risked losing my best friend if anyone found out. 

But the biggest risk of all—the risk of breaking my own heart by falling for someone who was never mine to begin with.
Maybe love just isn't in the equation.

***The Friendship Equation is a childhood best-friends-to-lovers, bi for you, forbidden sports romance standalone, featuring a dirty-talking boy next door and his sweet virginal best friend.




My Rating - 4.5 Stars!

The Friendship Equation is a fabulous new adult romance by JR Gray. 

This story is that of two best friends, one of whom is a virgin. 

I was really excited going into this one. Although I enjoyed it, it took me a while to get into it. Later on though, when things get in their way, I became fully invested and loved it. 

This is just one of the those feel good, friends to lovers romance that you can't help but to internally swoon over. Best friends since kindergarten, these two have a bond as strong as one can have. And god, I love these two together. The feelings that develop are just perfect, and it's a fun ride as they fall in love. 

I always enjoy when a political family gets in the way of their child being out. And this one has just that, as Harden's father wants to run for president. This sets up a great dynamic, as the boys have always been best friends, but for appearances sake, Vance knows he's beneath him. 

This is a story with a virgin, some sexual exploration, and best friends to lovers. There's political issues involved, as well as sports, and being separated for the first time because of college. 

As always, the writing is good and the JR's storyline will keep you reading late in the night. 

The Friendship Equation is a wonderful friends to lovers new adult romance. JR Gray does a fabulous job creating a strong friendship and testing these men on the strength of their love. It's a great feel-good story with enough angst to keep things interesting. 




 Gray is a cynical Chicago native, who drinks coffee all day, barely sleeps, and is a little too fashion obsessed. He writes realistic and damaged characters because everyone deserves a happily ever after.

MF - When it Comes to You by Melissa Toppen

 



Title: When it Comes to You
Author: Melissa Toppen
Genre: Second Chance Romance (standalone)
Release Date: August 27, 2021







Eight years ago I ran. I ran from my parents. I ran from my pain. I ran from him…
I never wanted to go back. If not for my best friend’s wedding, I likely never would have.
The plan was simple. Get in. Get out. Easy as that.
Only I should have known nothing is ever that simple.
Especially when Westin Carver is involved.
He broke my heart once. Or rather, he completely annihilated it.
And I have no doubt that if given the chance, he’d do it all over again.
But even knowing that, it doesn’t change the way I crave him.
The way my body reacts to him.
The way one touch completely obliterates the wall I built between us.
But when it comes to Westin not everything is as it seems.
They say love is blind. In my case, love is blinding.
Because I should have seen what was coming next…
And I didn’t.

All You Touch (Love Starts Here #2) by E.M. Lindsey

 


Amazon Link   - Available in KU  




When he prayed for an angel, this blond Norse god wasn’t what he was expecting…

West Balkany lived his life by one rule: make your own luck. And that means fighting his slum lord when his building starts falling apart, forcing himself to finish school no matter how much he wants to quit, and most importantly, never do something as stupid as falling in love.

Unfortunately, that last part isn’t so easy when his gorgeous one-night-stand who dragged him into a bar supply closet and made him see god, keeps turning up everywhere he goes.

But he doesn’t have time for Jake—no matter how much he wants to. His father’s health is failing, his deli is barely getting by, and now he’s facing a massive legal suit against Larsen Property Management for trying to kick everyone out into the streets. He also knows that Jake is hiding something, and he’s pretty sure whatever it is, it’s enough to turn his life upside down.

But Jake also makes him want to try, and that’s what scares him the most.


Jakob Larsen spent his life running from the man his father always wanted him to be, but that all comes to a stop when the man announced he was leaving LPM. He finally has a chance to prove to both his brother and to St. James that he can turn Larsen Property Management around and do something good for the people his father has been tormenting all these years.

The problem is, he’s just not quite sure how, when no one trusts him to do the right thing.

And it doesn’t help that Jakob has found himself distracted, falling for a gorgeous, stoic deli owner who has no idea who he really is. All Jakob has ever wanted was to be truly loved, but now that he’s found the one person he could see himself growing old with, he has to face the truth: everything they have is based on a lie.

Will he ever be a man worthy of forgiveness, or will he have to face the fact that everything he touches turns to dust?

All You Touch is the second book in the low-angst, humorous, steamy series, Love Starts Here. It contains no cheating, and a happily ever after.




My Rating - 4 Stars!

All You Touch is a the second book in the Love Starts Here series. This EM Lindsey book is a wonderful love story. 

Jakob and West are fabulous together. They immediately connect and have a hook up. And damn, it's hot! 

The opposites attract aspect is wonderfully done, as these two are night and day. And the age gap of more than ten years is a lot of fun.

I enjoy every interaction between these two. They're both looking for the same results, but they have some issues to face to get there. Because damn, sometimes a lack of communication, or lie of omission, is tough to get through. 

Their story involves family issues, a rich versus not so rich vibe, and a strong connection. 

Written in alternating pov, we get both men's thoughts and emotions. This is perfect to help the reader understand both men. Their story includes a lot of family members and their issues, keeping things interesting for sure. 

All You Touch is another great book by EM Lindsey. Unlike many of EM's books, this one is much lower on the angst, but just as great in the romance department. This is a heart-warming story that fell into my lap at the right time. I love it.
