Wonderful end to a fantastic series.

Rafe and Cam will not sneak into your heart, they will barge right in, take up residence and loudly proclaim their refusal to leave - ever!

Besties since birth and all through childhood until in their teens, where Cam had to distance himself from Rafe for his own sanity. Circumstances have them living next door to each other and so begins Cam’s antics to get attention from Rafe.
Cam is so exuberant yet patient and able to listen when required whilst Rafe is in the midst of a personal crises and unhappy with his life. Slowly but surely they find the point of balance between them.

I loved every moment of their engaging, low angst romance. From the moment of their fragile reconnection, which was then patiently nurtured into a relationship, ending in a well deserved and beautiful HEA that left my heart beyond happy.

This is the fourth and final book in the Never Just Friends series but it can be read as a standalone. The characters from all the previous books are also here for the finale and it’s great to catch up with them all.

This is steamy, like lots and lots of steam which means very high heat levels.
Ezra is not only a university student but also a porn star with a very popular YourFan account. His teacher Isaac happens to be one of Ezra’s biggest fans, unbeknownst to Ezra
Add into the mix that they both have crushes on each other and things get interesting and rather complicated, especially when circumstances bring them together but Ezra is totally unaware he’s with Isaac.
I really enjoyed this take on the teacher/ student trope. It’s a very easy, quick low angst read with likeable main characters who get their longed for HEA without having to negotiate any major hurdles.

Licking Thicket never disappoints.

Sometimes you just want a low angst, fun, pun filled romance with great main and secondary characters that make you giggle, from the main characters Carter and Riggs to the monologuing drug lord and the gamer obsessed cousin. This levity is perfectly balanced with a bit of suspense to keep things interesting.

Circumstances bring Riggs, a bodyguard, and Carter, a cardiologist, together and even though Riggs doesn’t have the best first impression of Carter, there’s definitely some chemistry between them. They really do try their best to ignore said chemistry but it was never going to stay that way for long so some steamy times take place. I cheered these two on from the very beginning and just thinking about their HEA makes smile still.

This is a very enjoyable and engaging read with some feels, a bit of drama, some fantastically quirky side characters and lots and lots of puns. A terrific start to the Thicket Security series and I eagerly await the next book, which we do get a quick peek at.

Alice Winters has created an amazing world of magic and mayhem with magical beings and creatures. All brought to the attention of Nix, a human who has no idea magic exists, and discovers that he has to save the world.

Nix is a cute, funny and very loveable man who truly believes his life is boring. Until he gets thrown into a strange new world with Alastair, his magical Guardian. Alastair is a tad self absorbed, slightly dramatic, a snappy dresser and lots of fun. Included in their quest to save the world are a great cast of side characters including a less than capable witch, a magical horse with attitude, a cat called Purrcival and an incubus who just wants a moments peace.

I was absolutely captivated by this story of good vs evil from the very beginning. It just flowed along seamlessly and kept me turning the pages well into the night. The storyline is intriguing and original with lots of laugh out loud moments balanced with action and drama.
This is a low angst, slow burn, HFN romance with a couple of steamy scenes. The quest is successful for now but far from over and I look forward to reading more in this world.

Uptight Nicolas finally comes undone.

Nicolas and Felix are both wonderful characters who are polar opposites. Felix is pretty much a human version of a happy puppy who goes where his intuition tells him whilst Nicolas leads a very rigid and organised life and he’s a tad uptight if anything rocks that boat!

The overall story arc continues but this time the mystery surrounding what is causing all the problems in Daydream is finally solved with all the characters from previous books helping out. (I’m avoiding spoilers so I won’t say more than that)

Whilst working together Felix does get Nicholas to loosen up a smidge and it turns out that Nicholas doesn’t really hate him. So begins a bit of back and forth before they give in to the chemistry and heat things up between them.

I enjoyed this engaging read and how the mystery and the romance were well balanced. There’s a dash of angst, some steamy times, some giggles from the antics of Felix and a HEA that made me smile. Loving this series and there’s still more to come when Emmerson gets his story told.


A sweet cozy mystery with wonderful characters.

This is the second instalment in the London Podcast Mystery series and once again Dannel and Osian find themselves involved in a murder or three.

These two men really are the sweetest and the love between them is tangible. The steamy scenes are off page but the many heartwarming and beautifully tender moments between them are front and centre. Dannel is neurodiverse and Osian once again shows his absolute love and devotion to Dannel by doing whatever he can to make the world suit Dannel’s needs, not the other way around.

This mystery features murders at a local theatre where their rather dramatically inclined neighbour is putting on play. The local theatre is also rumoured to be haunted. So begins Dannel and Osian’s interest and amateur sleuthing when they go to investigate the ghost haunting but are confronted by their friend hunched over a dead body.

This is a very engaging and enjoyable read with numerous interesting side characters to suspect and a dash of drama and suspense thrown in.

A sweet with heat low angst romance that’s an enjoyable easy read
