Who We Truly Are by Victoria Sue
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Talon's abilities are becoming hard to control and he is struggling to protect the man he loves with all his heart and not become the greatest risk to Finn’s life. Finn has no choice but to offer himself as bait for the people kidnapping enhanced children, facing danger he is untrained and unprepared for, and he will have to do it alone. Does Talon have one last fight in him? Will he slay everyone who wants to destroy Finn and the team, or will he finally discover that to defeat their enemy and the ultimate threat, the biggest battle he has to face is one with himself?

This was a very dramatic story as Talon and Finn had arguments about Finn's determination to help even though he was normal and untrained and The development of Talon's enhanced skills. Finn was very clever and was able to get himself close to the kids involved and the conclusion to this story was just drama++. I loved the way that Finn decided to behave if he was going to die and how that saved them. This was easy to read, feel and understand as I read faster and faster to find out what was happening. This was an MM story with mature content.

Five Minutes Longer by Victoria Sue
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Talon thought his life ended the day he transformed into an enhanced human and became reviled, mistrusted and often locked away. He knew partnering with a regular human in their experimental FBI unit was a dangerous mistake likely to cost them their lives. Finn Meyer was an undiagnosed dyslexic which stopped his dream of joining the FBI before it had even begun but then he was given a chance to partner an enhanced human with lethal abilities who wanted him to fail. Finn had to fight his whole life and was determined to not fail now although the biggest battle was with his heart.

I loved this story of the situation that Finn was in before he was allowed to join the FBI. The enhanced team members were described well and they all felt real to me. I loved the way that Finn was so clever he just had issues reading but he was like a sponge absorbing knowledge and information. The relationship between Talon and Finn started with passion and just stayed passionate all the way through. Even when they had a disagreement it was passionate. Finn certainly became one of the team and proved himself to the team time and time again. Easy to read, feel and understand. This is an MM story with mature content.

His First Noel by Victoria Sue
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Alpha Obsetritian Daniel Brennan never recovered after his younger brother's suicide and has always vowed he will never mate an omega because of it and at forty-seven he accepts he is probably too old for a family and so throws himself into his career. Remy thought his life had ended the day he was classified as an omega and between the bullying and loneliness he thinks he is not pretty or clever enough to attract an alpha. The only bright light on his horizon is his new job at the omega clinic. A lonely omega and an alpha who doesn’t realise how much he wants his own family is forced together when the unthinkable happens, and Remy - who doesn’t even know he is pregnant -goes into labour. Delivering Remy’s baby might be easy for Daniel. Delivering a Christmas miracle might be something else altogether.

Wow - prepare for tears during this story as it will pull at your heartstrings. Poor Remy, who had serious self-esteem issues, had a really bad set of circumstances thrown at him but then later in the story, he realised that he had worth and didn't have to settle for second best. Daniel was quite clueless and I was so glad that his peers and colleagues were able to give him some home truths. Easy to read, feel and understand.

His First Kiss by Victoria Sue
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Omega Shay Nicholls lost everything including three babies before they were born. His alpha has abandoned him as a failure and when he had no hope of a future he can't even take the last step and end it all. Alpha lawyer Nick Carmichael has been trapped in a job he hates for too long. When he finds the broken and desperate omega he feels that life has given him a chance to be the mate he wants and eagerly steps up to care for the terrified man. Shay doesn’t trust alphas, even ones with gentle hands and a kind smile, but when tragedy strikes and Nick gets hurt, Shay realizes he’s been very wrong. Unfortunately, it might just be too late.

I enjoyed this story which was able to make me feel all of the emotions that Shay and Nick were going through in this rollercoaster of a story. I felt desperately sorry for Shay although at times he became quite annoying in his refusal to accept that Nick was trying to help him. Shay's old alpha was a nasty piece of work which was proven later in the story. Easy to read, feel and understand. This is an MM story with mature content and set in the omegaverse with mpreg.

Something Unforgettable by Rory Maxwell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Finn likes working at his grandfather’s feed and general store because people aren’t as intimidating when he’s behind the counter whereas outside Finn is uncomfortably shy. He is likely to stay a single mess forever. Older man Xavier started to show an interest but he was so far out of Finn's league. Xavier DeCain came to Split Rock to help out a friend and didn't plan to keep coming back let alone Finn, whose pretty blushes were irresistible. But Xavier has specific tastes - not to mention an intense desire to be in charge. He isn’t sure innocent young Finn will be able to handle it. Their mutual attraction is too strong to ignore, but for a relationship to work, they’ll both need to fight their demons. Finn will have to trust Xavier to be careful with his wounded heart, and Xavier will have to reexamine the things he finds most important.

I enjoyed this story of love and passion between shy Finn and confident Xavier. Xavier was a typical Daddy who wanted to care for Finn and take away all of his hurts. I loved how genuine Finn was in Hollywood and how he made a good friend out of an A-listed actor. The filling in of Finn's childhood was great for understanding him. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content and a BSDM-like DDLB dynamic.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Omega Lorne Austen was mated to an alpha with a standard contract at a young age and so on the very day his alpha’s youngest children were fifteen he was told to pack his bags and leave the only real home he had ever known. Heartbroken and stranded in a snowstorm he takes shelter. Alpha Doctor Jonathan Owens has personal reasons for never wanting to mate with an omega, but all his good intentions are tested to the limit when he meets Lorne. After spending the night together he is devastated to find Lorne has vanished without a trace the next morning. Lorne discovers he is pregnant but the law says unmated omegas cannot keep the babies they give birth to. Realising something is badly wrong with the pregnancy he goes to the clinic and comes face to face with Jonathan again. All Lorne has wanted is a family he won’t lose. Jonathan has spent years making sure he never needed one. Faced with the real danger that the babies won’t even survive long enough to be born, can these two find love and the strength they need in each other or will their differences always pull them apart?

I enjoyed this story with more of a look at how society worked (which was very unfair to omegas) and that good alphas were out there trying to change things. I loved the children from Lorne's original alpha and their proposals to protect Lorne. Some of this book highlighted the importance of communication.

The King's Boy by Aja Foxx

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

King was sent to take over as leader of the Irish mob in New York City. He wasn't keen on the position until he met Spencer but first, he needed to figure out if Spencer was as crazy as he seemed or if he was a spy sent by my enemies. Spencer is bat-shit crazy but being normal is crazy. Stepping outside the lines meant meeting the handsome Irish mafia boss, and he was fun to mess with. It's just too bad it put him on someone else's radar. Now, he was running for his life.

I enjoyed this story with the two men who were drawn to each other even though one lived a dangerous life while the other was flamboyant. I enjoyed their relationship and how their passion could be explosive. The danger and drama was very real and very personal. Easy to read, feel and understand.

The three of them intend to celebrate the holidays together there too. Brant has always had a crush on sexy Hig. Can he get Hig to see him as an adult and not his son's best friend?

This was a cheesy story worthy of a Hallmark film. I did enjoy some of the adult conversations around Col's late mother and Brant's mother's interference in his life.

Tommy Carter was taking out the rubbish from his job at a local bar and grill when he noticed the man hiding behind the dumpster. He lived through his difficult circumstances in the past so if he can help he will. Tommy doesn’t have a lot, but he has a heart of gold that won’t let him walk away from someone he knows needs a hand up. Zane Martin was left wandering the streets of Sacramento in a haze after tragedy struck. He’s afraid to trust anyone and suffering from a lack of food and adequate clothing to keep him alive and well against the weather about to hit the area. He’s not sure he can trust Tommy, but he wants to. There has to be one good person out there, and maybe he’s just found him. A story of helping when you can, and accepting help when it’s offered.

This was such an inspirational story of big-hearted Tommy who was determined to help Zane and all the friends and acquaintances who helped. I loved the tender way that Tommy cared for Zane and that he never gave up on him. I loved the way that the other people in the Better Together universe were involved.

Until one little newborn arrives and keeps them busier than they ever imagined possible. Nine months seemed tough, but the first twelve will be even more challenging.

Bad Daddy by Victoria Sue
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Caleb DeLuca knew that tattooed, scarred ex-cons didn't usually get trusted with anything precious. He was shocked to get invited to the BDSM club his brother-in-law owned. Max was too young, too beautiful, and too fragile for Caleb to get any idea they could ever be more than friends. Besides this, Max was searching for a Dom who would inflict the pain he craved, and Caleb was done with hurting people. Bad Daddy is the story of a man who doesn't believe he deserves anything good and a boy who finds out that sometimes the best things come in the most unexpected packages.

I loved this story and the struggles that they both had as to others' perceptions of themselves and what they wanted out of a relationship. They always respected each other as well as did their best to be kind. I loved that Caleb gave Max the strength to achieve what he wanted and needed but also Max was a fierce strength behind Caleb when it was needed. Easy to read, feel and understand.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Captain Damon Amaro was a legacy member because his family had four generations of firefighters. It was a legacy he’d rather he didn’t have, but familial obligations have always been his downfall. He was struggling that his older brother was on trial for multiple arson and murder charges. Damon turned to less-than-savoury extracurricular activities to help him cope. Even his best friend has no idea about the secrets he’s been hiding. Cyrus MacMillan changed his name to escape the shame of what his father did and is now the newest firefighter at Station Twenty-One. He joined the fire service to right the wrongs of his father - he hopes that all stays buried. Trust is hard for Cyrus and even though he and Dmien connect on a level beyond his wildest dreams he knows it won't last long - especially when his past is suddenly made public. Damon believes that the sins of the father should not be cast on the son and so he supports Cy even though it means that they have to hide their relationship for now. Both men have baggage they have to overcome, but in the end, they believe they are better together. Can Damon and Cy have a future together, or will continuing their relationship have repercussions neither of them can live with?

I enjoyed this story with the two men with the secrets and their pasts but an undeniable passion that is hot enough to burn down the city. I liked the focus on emotions and feelings in his story because they were both hurt due to historic events either from their upbringing, recent events or both. I was pleased when they found ways to be together and work through the problems in a way to help them. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.

Langdon has some special energy skills, but even so, he hasn't been in a good place for some time, culminating in him chasing away Molly - the woman he has loved forever. Then he realises that she has been kidnapped and so he needs to find her and work out who took her. Molly would do anything for Langdon but being used as leverage to force him to do something was never part of her plan. Escaping would be nice but it is out of the range of her special energy skills - something she needs to hide from her captors. Can she open the psychic door she slammed shut to Langdon to let him know before he is forced to do something?

I enjoyed his story with the stubborn Langdon who was too busy having a pity party to work with the one person who understood him only to find her kidnapped. Molly was a force to be reckoned with and I loved the way that she was able to use her own set of skills to create a little mischief for her captors without giving anything away. Great descriptions of Langdon's and Molly's thoughts and emotions in the story. Easy to read and understand.

He asks Hawke for help to comb through old files with him to help prove it is the same arsonist. When the arsonist sets his sights on Tristan, can Hawke find a way to keep his new love safe?

I enjoyed this story with the link of the fire when Hawke was a child and the ones later on, the sick satisfaction the arsonist got from them and the growing relationship between the two men. It was good to pick up some details on how their jobs worked and how they were able to fit everything around them.

Sinner's Salvation by Bianca Borell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Cameron McNamara is a member of the Syndicate and the current Mayor of Boston and although he doesn't want a wife, he agrees to an arranged marriage to gain political influence and power. When he meets her she is nothing like he imagined and they agree to be married on paper only and she will support him with his goal of becoming a Senator. Violet Campbell has many phobias and has lived in seclusion for years until her father disrupts her peace to insist she has to marry the Boston mayor for his own gain. She can't stand Cameron as he is too arrogant, cold and has no concept of personal space. But at least, they agreed on one thing: No touches. No kisses. No intimacy.
Behind closed doors, there’s no need to pretend their marriage is real. But every day, his wife surprises him. Cameron yearns to uncover the woman she hides behind the mask. Every night, her husband unravels her and Violet begins to crave more of her husband. What started as an agreement, is turning into something none of them saw coming.

I loved this story with the struggle for Violet to fight past her phobias, the way that Cameron tried in his way to help her, and the way over time their relationship was becoming less distant and more friendly (even if there was also an undercurrent of hate in there). Their passion was electric and all-consuming and I'm sure could have been seen from space. They did seem to have a communication problem when it came to feelings but I think that barrier was removed after a dramatic event. This was easy to read and the feelings (although not always comfortable) were easy to feel and understand. There is plenty of mature content in this story with some BDSM-like behaviours.

I received an ARC of this book in return for an honest review.

The brothers work for the PFA and find themselves at a crossroads when their past catches up to them so they have to decide - tell the men in the Agency the truth, or run once more and leave behind everyone they've come to think of as family? Max Morris is an ex-FBI agent and has a deadly skillset who has no issues delivering vigilante justice against any men who abuse children and get off on a technicality. He doesn’t regret a moment of it. Someone has to take the predators like his father off the street. Travis Manning is a social worker and the newest member of the FPA. He helps to find safe haven homes for children in need. The shy, secretive, non-social man suffers from low self-esteem, which isn’t helped when he always ends up dating men who are in the closet and keep him as their dirty secret. Travis always feels like he isn’t good enough until he’s caught between Max and Damien. Literally. When Travis’ abusive ex shows up in Baton Rouge and proves he's a risk to the sweet man they love, what lengths will Max and Damien go to to keep Travis safe forever?

This was a great story with three men who each had their demons and dangers but it was more Travis who had the nightmare coming at him determined to reclaim him to abuse far more. There was a great deal of emotional analysis for these men who had their challenges but together they worked well.

Cooper Jones grew up in foster care and only had friends who were black hat hackers at the community centre until he was eighteen and was caught by the government hacking into Homeland Security the Agent in charge was impressed by his skills and so saved him from a life of crame by giving him a job to hack for good instead and recently was added to the team by the Federal Protection Agency. Jonah West is a detective working in Baton Rouge and hatest it when criminals go free on a technicality. He works long hours which means that his twelve-year-old son Drew spends a lot of time playing games on his computer. When his house is broken into and his son is missing Jonah contacts the FPA for help getting him back. Can Coop and Jonah keep Drew safe while they track down the kidnappers, and will their growing closeness mean they have a future together?

I enjoyed this story with the way that the team worked so well together to get Drew back and the way that Coop was able to relate to Drew and help him understand what he had been doing and why it was wrong. I loved that he gave him a way of doing it safely and on the right side of the law. The closeness of the relationships between the two men and their closeness with Drew was touching and I enjoyed that this had so many real-life parallels. Easy to read, feel and understand.

We Don't Need Another Santa by Bix Barrow
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Retired Hitman Phillip was posing as a third-grade teacher to lie low when he discovered that Seth and Robin were being abused by their stepfather so he stayed around longer than he intended to keep them safe. On Christmas Eve he discovers that Robin had accidentally killed him while protecting Seth. So he felt he was the right person to dispose of his body. At the same time, Santa delivered the boys' uncle Lucas McCord who is a famous actor who is never out of the tabloids. Phillip needs to assess if he is trustworthy enough to care for the boys as he is recently out of rehab. An ill-timed photo in the press has them announcing that they are boyfriends and the key to repairing his reputation. Phillip's skills are perfect for navigating Hollywood and when he comes face-to-face with an old enemy he will use every weapon he has to protect them all.

This was a sweet story and I loved that both men were focused on the safety of the boys so anything between them was in some ways coincidental. There were some cute moments in the story as well as some funny moments and I found it a fun read. Easy to understand and pick up the feelings of the characters. This was an MM story with some mature content.

I received a free copy of this book from the MM Book Buzz's 12 Days of Xmas giveaway.

Please note this is a novella continuing the hitman’s story from What’s Santa Got to Do with It but can be read as a standalone.

Review: Ryzen by Eve Riley 4 of 5 stars

Ryzen by Eve Riley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When he was eighteen Ryzen was recruited into the CIA and is one of the best snipers in the world. He now works with the Federal Protection Agency to track down people who perpetrate crimes against children. Always hidden behind dark sunglasses he is a mystery to everyone. He remembers Knox when he had a psych evaluation and that the profiler report resulted in his discharge from the CIA so he is not impressed with the man and is disturbed by how he makes him feel. Knox Hunter is a profiler with the FBI and investigating a series of murders where the victims are all male aged between twelve and fourteen and have the same MO. The mayor is pushing for re-election and so the public has no idea that there is a serial killer out there. Knox is sent to the FPA to close the case quickly. Knox is an office man and this post could be dangerous for him as he is not experienced working in the field. Will Ry be able to keep Knox safe while they track down and put away this serial killer, or is he destined to be the biggest threat to Knox’s heart?

I loved the combination of the serial killer and solving that problem while at the same time, there was the mystery of Ry and Knox as they tried to solve the mystery of each other and why they were so drawn together. There were a lot of emotions in this story around both men and the serial killer and it was great to read something where you could feel why things happened in a certain way. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.

Rafe by Eve Riley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ex-SEAL, Special Agent Rafe Dallas spent years working for the DOJ after his medical discharge. Now, he's joined a special Task Force fighting crimes against children and after their first successful operation, he is determined to give everything he has to save as many children as he can. then he finds out about the tragic death of his Navy SEAL buddy, John, he promises to look after the man’s younger brother and do what he can to help find his daughter. Finley Quinn is working undercover at a human trafficking ring trying to find his niece. Eighteen months earlier she was set to join the SEALs and follow his older brother's footsteps but then his brother was killed and his six-year-old niece kidnapped. He has been looking for her ever since especially as the local police think she is dead but there isn't a body so he will not give up. When Rafe joins him undercover, Finley is reminded of the huge crush he had on the sexy older man. Will they save Finley’s niece before it’s too late? Will Rafe ever see Finley as more than his best friend’s kid brother?

This was a dramatic story as Finley tried to find his niece and then Rafe and the rest of the organisation joined him in his hunt for her. The background mention of the abuse of the children was heartbreaking but I was impressed with their determination to find out as much as they could as part of looking for her. Their relationship started with something just physical but there were already feelings there so they just needed time to work it all out. Easy to read, feel and understand.

When the chance to join a recently developed task force drops in his lap, Jarod jumps at the opportunity. Paired up with Mason as his new partner, Jarod finds himself experiencing things he never thought possible. Will the pair find love while they chase down the bad guy and bring him to justice?

I enjoyed this story with the bullying of Jarod as the new guy, the crimes of Jasper Monroe and the meeting of Mason and Koda. I loved how their relationship started and developed as they spent more time together. The crimes that Monroe committed were not good and it was heartbreaking the effect they had on innocent children. I enjoyed the fact that the two men had each other to lean on and comfort each other.

Sweet Elf by M.M. Farmer
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Omega Tucker Mandal is working as an elf in the Barrington Christmas Market and has a medical condition which means he has not had a heat yet even though most people would have had one by now. That upsets him as he wants to become a papa but no heat means no children. Add to that he is still a virgin and he wonders if Micah would be interested in him if he knew the truth. Micah Lawson never thought that playing Santa would be so satisfying or inspire him to a new career let alone that his disappointed dad would be interested. He never would have imagined to find the adorable, sweet and clever omega Tucker who he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. He just needs to summon up the courage to ask him out so he can make him his.

I enjoyed this story with the two men who were struggling to ask each other out even though they were perfect for each other, Tucker's medical problem and the Christmas solution to it. I loved the way that when the outgoing mayor decided to throw a spanner in the works they were able to work together and with the help of others fix the problems. Easy to read, feel and understand.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Luca has waited on tables in the Tap Tavern for years and in the last six months he has had his relationship with his coworkers change from acquaintances to friends. After letting it slip that he is an unattached boy they are out to find him a Daddy for Christmas. But Harrison is the only unattached Daddy there and although he is rich and gorgeous he only plays and never commits. As holiday giving is in full swing Luca sees the heart that is behind Harrison's arrogance which leaves him confused - the sexy man in suits with a huge ego is not supposed to be fun and willing to get his hands dirty. Luca isn’t sure he buys into Christmas magic, but by the time this season is done, he may just believe that Harrison is the gift his heart needs.

I loved this story where Luca discovers that what you see on the surface is not what you get or see deep down if you only look and that there is a thin line between love and hate. There were times when I felt sorry for Harrison and the way that Luca was so down on him so I was thrilled when he saw Harrison for real and understood the man. A lovely look back at the Takoda world and with such a great Christmas message of giving and helping others. Easy to read, feel and understand this will make you smile. An MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like Daddy/boy relationship.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Andreas is selling some stuff online as part of clearing out a storage locker and finds that two guys are aggressively bidding on the same set of childhood toys. When he discovers that it is two best friends trying to buy the same thing for each other as a Christmas gift and as they all live in the same city he decides to hand deliver them for them both to share. He finds two adorable young men and as they spend time together it feels like it could be love between them. Jalen moved from California to Australia to be with Colby and even though he loves him he feels that he needs someone better than him to look after him and become his Daddy. Andreas appears like a Christmas miracle and with his wealth likes to spoil them both. He offers to take the boys on an amazing trip to the UK back to his home during the holidays, how can they refuse? And if they just happen to accidentally fall into bed together, would that be so terrible? Colby is grateful for the power of the internet to enable Jalen to be there for him when his own family turns their backs on him. Now they live together but he knows that Jalen sees him only as a friend as he is far too fabulous and bright for someone as shy and quiet as him. When they start to spend time with their new friend Andreas who is great with cuddles and spoiling them he starts to wonder if could three be a magic number?

I loved this story with the two best friends who loved each other and the man to came in and swept them away with gifts, family and fun. Even though the two boys had slightly different needs Andreas was a good enough Daddy to have enough love and care for them both. I loved that they were able to talk to each other, discuss their thoughts and emotions (eventually) and that they quickly became much more with the addition of a third person in their dynamic. Certainly, it helped that Andreas was wealthy in all of their fun and adventures. Easy to read, feel and understand. his was an MMM story with mature content and a BSDM-like DDLB dynamic.

He does his best to be good in a world where it’s too easy for an alpha to be bad. David and Michael have a shared case and the more time they spend together the more tempted they are o experience what they have up to now missed.

I enjoyed this story and the discussion of alpha and omega rights and the inequalities. I loved that Michael was doing everything he could to help omegas and level the playing field even though it prevented his happiness. I loved that they were mates but would never have known unless they had stopped using their suppressant. Nice discussions around thoughts and feelings of the men themselves and of the rights of alpha/omega rights situations. Easy to read, feel and understand.

Omega Elijah is working as an elf at the Barrington Christmas Market where no one knows about his family or origins as he is currently stuck in an ultra-religious community where Christmas is outlawed.

This was an interesting story about the closed community with its draconian ways and the pressure that Elijsh was feeling. Therefore it was great that he was able to start to make a plan to get away from there. His Papa seemed wonderful and I loved the way that the story ended.

He just has to make it through one more class but he is also the TA for the most feared professor on campus - Dr Page. Stress working for him sends Bailey looking into self-soothing methods and ends up in a world he never knew existed with binkies, blankets, bibs and stuffies. HE adds them to his basket as fast as he can. Kelvin Page is frustrated - his job bores him, his friends have all settled down and his search for the perfect little never ends well. This is all made worse when one of his students proves to be a temptation at every turn. He renews his Club Deny membership to get some relief playing as a temporary Daddy. When Bailey's package shows up at Kelvin's place by accident, the Daddy in him sees an opportunity he can't resist.

Police officer Sam Miller saw Jordan Webb walk into Brews Brothers and knew he was in trouble as he was the most gorgeous man he had ever seen with a beauty that was not just skin deep as he had a kind heart and a desire to do good in the world. His living arrangement is in limbo due to a breakup so Sam invites him to stay with him. even though he knows it would be the best kind of torture as Jordan is young and could get someone far better than him. Jordan knows he is head over heels in love with Sam as he is sweet and funny but can't reveal his feelings as he is not a catch being seen as dramatic, sensitive and letting emotions get the better of him. His last job as a public defender did not pay well and he has student loan debt up to his ears having switched to be a prosecutor has been given a case seen as hopeless - trying police officer Paul the man who abused Lyle and assaulted Jonah. He is a mess with nothing to offer - no one sane would want him.

I loved this story with the two men who were instantly attracted to each other and their relationship mixed into the case against Paul and all of his cronies who had fallen for his lies. I loved all the drama in their lives and that Jordan was able to keep it under control with Sam's help. The rest of the group's faith in him was also touching. This was a very emotional story and a fitting end to the series (although I wish it hadn't ended!). Easy to read, feel and understand. This is an MM story with mature content.

Mike trusts his police partner Sam Miller with his life so he is not thrilled when he has to take six weeks off sick. He canned the original precinct for his new partner Jonah in Springfield and they seem to be a troublemaker and untrustworthy even though when he sees him he is the most gorgeous man he has ever seen. Jonah transferred to Princeton after a fellow officer attacked him. He has friends in Princeton so he feels welcome and safe but his temporary partner Mike is gorgeous but gives him the cold shoulder and no respect. Jonah sees secrets in Mike's eyes that he wants to unlock. Maybe it will be the beginning of a beautiful partnership that extends beyond the badge.

I enjoyed this story with the initial caution from Mike based on lies and how Jonah was able to bring him around. I loved the way that the secret was revealed and their love developed. The attack was very dramatic and I liked the way that Mike refused point blank to leave Jonah's side even though that revealed his secret to the others. I loved the ending.

Daddy Aiden liked a challenge and had no problem with a bratty boy; here he was considering two stubborn boys. Gannon was returned home five years ago from the military with scars on one side of his body and a missing leg which he learnt to live with. He loves Nolan but there is no way he would tie him to a man who has a vital part of his anatomy not working. Aiden meddles to get them together and as part of that, it becomes clear that Aiden fixes the part of Gannon that was broken. This begs the question - will the three of them be able to find a way to fit together?

I enjoyed this story with Gannon and Nolan who already loved each other and how Aiden became the glue to stick the three of them together. I thought it was a very Daddy thing to fix Gannon and Nolan first before the introduction of himself so they became the three of them. Lots of emotions in this story. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MMM story with mature content and BSDM-like Daddy/boy dynamics.
