He runs next door desperate for help from his neighbour Knightly who saves the day protecting him by helping to hide his little things, setting everything up and protecting Rhodes.

Review: Falling for my Ex's Twin by Colette Davison 4 of 5 stars

Falling for my Ex's Twin by Colette Davison
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Flynn’s fresh start as a farmer takes an unexpected turn when he crosses paths with Jimmy, his ex‑husband’s twin — the man he always assumed despised him. After a drunken one‑night stand leaves them both shaken, Flynn realises Jimmy isn’t the cold shadow of his brother but someone caring, protective, and genuinely attuned to him. As they reconnect, Flynn is torn between the possibility of real love and the fear of hurting the man he once married. Their story follows a farmer healing from a toxic past and the childhood friend who shows him he deserves to come first.

I loved that Flynn’s journey was incredibly moving, especially as he slowly recognises that his marriage wasn’t just unhappy — it was coercive and damaging. Watching him unlearn that harm with Jimmy’s steady support was at the heart of the story. Jimmy shows him, gently and consistently, that he deserves love, care, and to be put first for once in his life. Their emotions are written with such clarity that it’s easy to feel every moment of doubt, hope, and growing affection. The shift from pain to genuine connection is beautifully handled, making their love story both healing and deeply satisfying. This was an MM story with mature content.

Review: A Daddy for Christmas 3: Rowan by Colette Davison 3 of 5 stars

A Daddy for Christmas 3: Rowan by Colette Davison
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Damon wants nothing to do with Christmas, but when his brother disappears on a last‑minute holiday and leaves him to run their business, he’s forced into the chaos he hoped to avoid. The only small perk is borrowing his brother’s luxury car — and the relentlessly cheerful driver, Rowan, whose optimism slowly chips away at Damon’s grumpy exterior. When a sudden snowstorm leaves them stranded together with no rescue in sight, Damon can’t let Rowan freeze. As they huddle for warmth, Damon discovers a side of Rowan that reveals they have far more in common than he ever imagined. Their boss–employee dynamic blurs, replaced by unexpected chemistry and a growing Daddy/little tension neither of them can ignore. One night in a snowed‑in car changes everything — but once the storm passes, Damon must decide whether what sparked between them is just a moment… or something he wants to claim for good.

I enjoyed this story with the undercurrent of joy as a form of intimacy — Rowan’s optimism becomes a gentle invitation for Damon to feel again. I also liked that the Daddy/little dynamic emerged not from kink alone, but from emotional compatibility — Damon’s protectiveness met Rowan’s need for safety and warmth. I also liked that their intimacy bloomed in a moment of crisis when pretenses melted and truth surfaced. Easy to read and understand. This was an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like DDLB dynamic.

Review: Falling for the Professor by Colette Davison 4 of 5 stars

Falling for the Professor by Colette Davison
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When student Angus offers himself as a distraction to heartbroken professor Richard Jones, neither expects the connection to go beyond one night. But desire proves persistent—and so does the risk. Richard’s recent betrayal has left him raw, and Angus’s boldness offers a balm. Yet their growing intimacy is shadowed by academic boundaries and the ticking clock of graduation. As stolen moments turn into something deeper, they must navigate secrecy, temptation, and the possibility that what began as comfort might be the start of something real.

I really enjoyed this story with the two men who started with a one night stand but that grew into something much more. I think that the forbidden nature of their relationship fuelled both tension and tenderness. While the physical attraction between them both was off the chart, their settings for their trysts ramped up the attraction and intensity of their relationship. Easy to read and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.

Don't Hold Back by Colette Davison
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Garrett has spent years training in gymnastics, but the pressure has taken its toll and despite qualifying for the Olympics, failing to medal at the World Championships is all he can think about. Anger is taking control and strangling his ability to focus on training, when his main rival, Team USA gymnast, Ryder Anderson, arrives at the gym to train alongside him. Garrett wants to hate Ryder, but he can’t ignore his rival’s sunshine personality and handsome looks. Discovering Ryder is fighting a battle against himself, Garrett’s anger turns to admiration and then love. Dating his rival isn’t against the rules, but that doesn’t make it a good idea. Can they make a relationship work despite the pressure of the Olympics, or will they crack under the strain?

I adored these two men who both had demons to fight one with food and the other with anger. Thankfully they were able to get help while also focusing on their gymnastics. Both had coaches who were there for all of their needs and although their main passion was gymnastics they were also passionate about each other. I loved their relationship and that they had such levels of trust in each other. Lots of emotions and feelings in this book. This is an MM story with mature content.

Run Free by Colette Davison
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Jax is a fox shifter, Hugo is human, and their love is forbidden. They’ve spent the last seven years on the streets, relying on no one but each other. When they collide with alpha wolf shifter and barrister Dominic, they realise something has always been missing. Jax is keen to get to know the older man, but Hugo resists fate, worrying that, as a human, there will be no room for him. The only way they can be free to love each other is to escape the UK, but will Dominic leave his life behind to find a home with two younger men?

I enjoyed this story with the alternate universe which was a twist on the omegaverse where certain combinations of people were banned from being with others. I loved the pure love between Jax and Hugo and how Hugo did everything he could to protect Jax while putting himself in danger. Dominic was mostly self-assured and strong although he did initially doubt the bond between the three of them. The world was well-described, the characters made believable and their thoughts and emotions told beliveably. This was an MMM story with mature content set in the omegaverse with mpreg.

But can Reece be Alex’s rock, and remain focused on his training, or will his Olympic dreams suffer in the process?

This was an interesting story with the contrast of the focus needed to compete at the top level of a sport and the events of the past and how they impacted Alex (and by extension Reece). Alex was so brave helped by Reece's love and belief in him which added to the feel-good part of this story. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content
