I was only five years old in 1970, so my memories of that time have more to do with kindergarten than Kent State, but that doesn’t mean I don’t recall bits and pieces of the era, absorbed through the thoughts and feelings and actions of a seventeen-year-old sister who, for a very long time, regretted...

A Hole in God’s Pocket by K.Z. Snow
Faron Weaver and Greg Aubuchon are on sabbatical from the lives they knew growing up, from the religion that taught them there was no place for them and those like them. They’re living in plain sight of their God, attempting to contain and translate and find purpose within His plan while, at the same time,... Continue Reading →

The Rare Event by P.D. Singer
The lust for money is as timeless as money for lust. They are the original vices, and at Wolfe Gorman Equities, money and lust go together like stress and a volatile economy. Rick Santeramo is all about hedging his bets, both professionally and personally. He plays Wall Street a little bit like a skydiver jumping... Continue Reading →

Small Gems – Stroke! by M.J. O'Shea
The world is a pretty small place according to M.J. O’Shea, as Stroke! shoots holes in the theory that electronic and social media have become the cold and disconnected replacement for interpersonal relationships. This is the short and so sweet story of two young men competing for a seat on their university’s rowing team. Elijah... Continue Reading →

Sounds of Love by Susan Laine
Good conversation is really important to me, but I never seem to realize how important it is until I feel its absence, so it makes sense, then, that well written, organic dialogue can either make or break a book for me. That also applies to the interior monologue of the first person narrative; the internal... Continue Reading →

Wolf’s-own Book Two: Weregild by Carole Cummings
Forfeit. Collateral Damage. In a megalomaniac’s bid for supremacy, it was inevitable. It seems there’s a price to pay for everything in this world, and the currency is nothing less than a man’s very soul. Fen Jacin-rei is the pawn through which other players wish to manipulate this game. He is the tool, the sacrifice... Continue Reading →

Super Sock Man by Amy Lane
You can know who you are and embrace it. You can know who you are and reject it. You can suspect who you are and fear it. You can subdue who you are and bleed all the shades and hues from a multicolored life. Donnie is all about the embracing, but Chase is there just... Continue Reading →

Impromptu by Carole Cummings
I’m a hypocrite. I can admit it. I’m not usually a fan of the “one handed reads”, and I fully acknowledge that I like a little plot with my sex. As a result, I’ve probably been more than a bit harsh in my opinion of quite a few sex-centric books that didn’t deliver much in... Continue Reading →

Ghost: Wolf’s-own (Book One) by Carole Cummings
Oh, the Booyah! that is this book. Eden Winters, you know me so well. How irresistible is the number one? As in Chapter One, Book One, the beginning, the nervous anticipation and sometimes trepidation I feel when I start a new book and series from an author I’ve never read before. There are so many...

Review: Mine by Mary Calmes
It doesn’t take long to realize there’s something a little bit special about Landry Carter—from the manic highs to the frightening lows, from the dangerous impulses to the intense shifts in behavior that cause him to become aggressive one moment and submissive the next—Landry Carter is a bit like a butterfly in a jar, beautiful...

Chase in Shadow by Amy Lane
There is no one who can break my heart quite the way Amy Lane can. It’s never a quick, clean break. No, it’s a slow and agonizing process that begins with the first word of the book, and that first word is like the end of the thread that holds my poor little heart in... Continue Reading →

Mechanical Magic by Lorraine Ulrich
::sigh:: This is one of those books I had tremendously high hopes for, which, in the end, might have helped to contribute to some of the disappointment I felt in it. It was pleasant enough, to be sure, but seemed as though it could’ve been much more with only just a bit more attention to... Continue Reading →
