Open Liner by Katherine McIntyre
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

August’s awful day takes a turn when a kitchen fire brings firefighter Drake into his life — who also happens to be his ex‑girlfriend’s brother. With his parents planning to move away, August feels more alone than ever and considers leaving town too. Drake, stuck in a rut, throws himself into organising a charity concert and ends up needing August’s help. Their chemistry grows fast, but with August unsure about staying and Drake unwilling to hurt his sister, acting on it becomes complicated.

The connection between August and Drake is undeniable from the start, even though it feels completely forbidden because of Serena and the complicated ties she has to them both. That tension adds an emotional edge to every moment they share as they slowly shift from attraction to something deeper. Their dating journey is full of feelings — longing, hesitation, hope — all heightened by August’s torment over whether he should move away with his parents or stay and take a chance on something real. Watching them fall for each other while navigating that uncertainty gave the story a strong emotional pull. A heartfelt, easy read with plenty of warmth, conflict, and connection. This was an MM story with mature content.

Review: The Beast Who Bought Me by Leighton Greene 5 of 5 stars

The Beast Who Bought Me by Leighton Greene
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Caligula Clemenza, once a mafia prince, is now the last heir of a bloodline being hunted down. With no allies or resources left, he turns to an underground auction where desperate men are sold. Instead of being bought by a stranger, he’s claimed by Damiano Orsini — a man with a long‑standing vendetta against Caligula’s father. Dragged into a private prison built just for him, Caligula expects cruelty, not protection. But when danger follows him, Damiano becomes both captor and shield… and the real risk becomes how much Caligula starts wanting him to stay.

Their relationship begins with possession, cruelty, and a power imbalance that’s impossible to ignore — but as events force them to rely on each other, that dynamic slowly shifts. I loved how their connection grew into something neither of them expected, showing just how thin the line between love and hate can be. What stood out most was how clearly their thoughts and feelings were written. Every moment — fear, anger, longing, confusion — was vivid enough that I felt like I was living it alongside them. Watching them move from enemies locked in a cage of vengeance to reluctant partners working together was gripping. I’m definitely looking forward to the next instalment and seeing where their volatile, compelling bond goes next. This was an MM story with mature content.

Review: Rocco by Joe Satoria 3 of 5 stars

Rocco: An MM Mafia Romance by Joe Satoria
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Rocco Bianchi, an underboss who treats danger like a game, crosses paths with Kalen O’Ryan, an FBI analyst who slips undercover into the Bianchi world while visiting Boston to care for his mum. Their flirtation turns into a charged push‑pull as Kalen gets drawn deeper into the fiercely loyal Bianchi family. He must decide whether to walk away or fall in line — especially as he rediscovers his little space and realises the man awakening it might be the Daddy he didn’t expect.

Their relationship definitely has an unconventional beginning, but the connection between Rocco and Kalen is hard to deny once it sparks. I liked the way they tried to navigate that pull while also protecting each other as their worlds collided. However, I did find parts of the story difficult to believe, and some of their interactions felt a bit manufactured rather than naturally developed. I also struggled with how Kalen’s mum was written — she seemed far more ill throughout the book than she appeared to be by the end, which made her storyline feel uneven. This was an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like DDLB dynamic.

Review: The Omega's Marine by C.W. Gray 4 of 5 stars

The Omega's Marine by C.W. Gray
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Fernando, an omega desperate for a fresh start, heads off for spring break hoping to escape the chaos his life has become. Instead, he meets Walker Jones, an alpha who’s spent his life feeling alone until the military gave him purpose. Their connection is immediate, and together they start dreaming of a future built on stability, love, and family. But when those plans fall apart, Fernando and Walker must lean on the people around them and rebuild a new vision for their lives. In the end, they teach each other what joy, belonging, and real love can look like.

Fernando and Walker form a connection almost instantly, but what I really loved was how they kept building it — staying in touch, talking regularly over video, and choosing each other long before they were in the same place again. Their relationship felt steady and intentional in a way that really worked for me. Both men are welcomed with open arms by the residents of Hobson Hills, and the Wilson family immediately deciding to “adopt” Walker was such a perfect, heartwarming touch. The whole story is easy to read and understand, with a lovely balance of humour — especially the Bigfoot festival and the pranks, which genuinely made me smile. A warm, hopeful romance with community charm and a wonderful ending that left me happy for them both. This was an MM story with mature content and set in the omegaverse with MPREG.

Review: The Den by Cora Rose 3 of 5 stars

The Den by Cora Rose
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Glenn is an alpha looking for something to break the monotony of his life when he visits The Den. The moment he scents omega Arbor, he’s instantly drawn in. That spark becomes a real complication when he later discovers Arbor is actually his supervisor at work. Arbor doesn’t want to be claimed, and Glenn knows he should step back — but the connection between them makes him feel alive in a way he hasn’t in years, pulling them both toward something neither expected.

The connection between Glenn and Arbor is undeniable from the start, and I enjoyed how they had to stand together — not just for their relationship, but to protect each other as tensions with the Fae escalated. The mix of danger, drama, and loyalty gave their bond real weight. I loved the way they defended one another, proving that their instincts weren’t just physical but emotional too. However, I did struggle at times because parts of the story felt a bit too strange for me, which affected my overall enjoyment. Still, their connection and determination to stay together were the heart of the book, and that part absolutely worked. This was an MM story with mature content set in the omegaverse.

Review: Admiring His Omega by C.W. Gray 4 of 5 stars

Admiring His Omega by C.W. Gray
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Cain, a respected but lonely lawyer, leaves Atlanta—and an unrequited crush—to start over in Hobson Hills. Malcolm, a cheerful, free‑spirited omega who lives on the road, keeps finding reasons to return to the same town. When their paths cross, Cain is drawn to Malcolm’s playful warmth, and Malcolm discovers he has a soft spot for serious men. Their connection is instant, but with such different lifestyles pulling them in opposite directions, staying together won’t be easy.

Their attraction sparked instantly, but what I really appreciated was how they had to work to turn that spark into a genuine friendship first. Watching them slowly build trust and understanding made their later connection feel much deeper. As their relationship grew into something more, life kept throwing obstacles in their way. Even so, they stayed committed to finding a path forward together — even if it meant delaying the future they wanted. The emotional weight of their journey was shared not just between them but with the people they were trying so hard to protect, which made their eventual chance to be together feel like a relief for everyone involved. The story also tied back to events from earlier books, neatly wrapping up several ongoing arcs. In the end, it was satisfying to see them finally able to claim their place as a family. This was an MM story with mature content and set in the omegaverse with MPREG.
