Review: Ricky and Leonardo by M.A. Innes 4 of 5 stars

Ricky and Leonardo by M.A. Innes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ricky is newly exploring his independence and becomes captivated by a confident online community he isn’t quite ready for. When they decide he needs guidance, they introduce him to Leonardo — an artist who knows exactly what he wants and instantly sees potential in Ricky’s curiosity and charm. Their chaotic first meeting sparks a connection, and as they grow closer, Leonardo offers structure and support while Ricky brings energy and spontaneity into his life.

Ricky’s sheltered upbringing made his journey both endearing and emotional, and I really felt how much he needed guidance after relying on the internet for everything he thought he knew. I loved the way Leo stepped in with such steady patience — explaining things clearly, protecting him from the more exuberant Leashes & Lace models, and giving him the structure he’d never had. Ricky’s enthusiasm and hunger for knowledge were such a great contrast to Leo’s calm, grounded presence, and watching Ricky flourish under that gentle guidance was incredibly satisfying. The story was easy to read and understand, with just enough emotion woven through as Ricky worked through feelings he’d never been taught how to navigate. In the end, Ricky truly was the perfect doll for Leo, and their dynamic made this a sweet, engaging read. This was an MM story with mature content and a BSDM-like D/s dynamic with dollification.

Review: Tropes and Tenderness by M.A. Innes 3 of 5 stars

Tropes and Tenderness by M.A. Innes
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Klynn, a serious dragon shifter, is stunned to realize his fated mate is a human — the equally stern and private Agent Murphy. Murphy, used to chaotic aliens, is drawn to Klynn’s calm intensity. Both feel the pull between them but struggle to understand how to bridge their very different worlds. As they slowly figure each other out, their unlikely connection becomes a story neither expected but both want to write together.

I enjoyed this story where Klynn and Agent Murphy were such a wonderfully matched pair — two stern, serious men who fit together far better than either expects. Their dynamic is charming in its own understated way, and when they click, they really click. It’s clear they’re perfect for each other, right down to their shared dislike of “diner nonsense.” That said, there were moments where the story seemed to drift a little, and I occasionally found myself unsure of what the characters were trying to communicate or where the scene was heading. It didn’t take away from the sweetness of their connection, but it did leave me a bit confused at times. Overall, a quirky, heartfelt romance between two men who balance each other beautifully — even if the path gets a little muddled along the way. This was an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like DDLB dynamic.

Review: A Little Christmas 4: Teddy by M.A. Innes 4 of 5 stars

A Little Christmas 4: Teddy by M.A. Innes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Levi is a grumpy character who feels unfairly punished by being given soup, which he despises. He admits he hasn’t been the nicest lately, but insists he doesn’t deserve “soup-level punishment.” Teddy is a mischievous but well-meaning neighbour who delivers soup not as punishment, but as a playful way to encourage healthier habits—and maybe to catch Levi’s attention. Teddy’s lighthearted “soup shenanigans” pushed Levi to realise that life isn’t just about frustration and drama. Instead, it can include silly fun, colouring, Christmas gifts, and even terrible soup.

I loved this story, which was a deceptively lighthearted one, but a lot was going on beneath the soup jokes. I liked that Levi feels unfairly judged, while Teddy sees himself as nurturing. The tension between perceived punishment and intended affection drives the humour and emotional core of the story. I also loved that Levi’s resistance masked loneliness, while Teddy’s mischief masked affection. Together, they explored how attention and care can heal isolation. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content with a BDSM-like DDLB dynamic.

Santa's Little Faker by M.A. Innes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Orlando’s first holiday season in his new neighbourhood takes an exciting turn after working at Terrence’s house, where he learns about being “little” and what it means to find the right Daddy. Armed with new knowledge, he sets his sights on his grumpy, closeted neighbour Bastian, determined to catch his attention. Meanwhile, Bastian is stressed to discover Orlando has somehow ended up with a “Secret Santa Daddy” and is diving headfirst into exploring his little side. Convinced Orlando is being misled, Bastian tries to protect him—even if it means denying his own feelings. But Orlando isn’t about to let the man of his dreams hide forever. His solution? Invent a Secret Santa and use a little holiday cheer to bring love out of hiding.

This was a sweet Christmas romance about self-discovery, stubborn hearts, and the magic of finding love right next door. I loved that this was a Christmas story which is a  time of change, hope, and miracles. I also loved that the story showed that intimacy requires boldness, trust, and the willingness to be vulnerable—even when the other person resists. It’s about the courage to reach for love despite uncertainty. This story really showed that the courage to embrace hidden desires, the healing power of holiday cheer, and the discovery that love often lives right next door, was just waiting to be unwrapped for them both. Easy to read and understand. This was an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like DDLB dynamic.

Review: Monster Daddies by M.A. Innes 3 of 5 stars

Monster Daddies by M.A. Innes
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is a dark and kinky collection of stories featuring "Monster Daddies." The collection introduces Daddies who appear monstrous and live in unexpected places, such as underneath a bed, contrasting with more traditional settings like ranches or mansions. The central theme of the stories is that these Daddies share one intense goal: to find and claim their little ones by "any means necessary," suggesting a dark and possessive element to the Daddy/Little dynamic.

This was a nice collection of short stories grouped together in a great value collection. The stories were well written and easy to understand and feel. All stories had mature content.

Culture and Curiosities by M.A. Innes
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is a story about Wren, an earthling, and Toman, an alien dragon-mage, who are fated mates. Wren finds his mate at a bizarre party and is excited by the prospect of a "Daddy" who is also an alien. He is ready for a wild adventure. Toman is an alien who is surprised to find his fated mate on Earth. He is confused by human customs but is determined to learn what it means to be a "Daddy" and how to fall in love with his "adorably confusing" mate.

This was a sweet romantic story where the two men from different worlds must navigate cultural differences and their fated bond. The arrival of aliens through the portal was fun and the area that they arrived in is very kinky and so it was difficult for them to understand and on return to explain. A good start to this new series. The relationship between Wren and Tomas was sweet and tender. Easy to read and understand. This was an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like DDLB dynamic.

Review: Weston & Cyrus by M.A. Innes 4 of 5 stars

Weston & Cyrus : A M/m Humiliation Play Romance by M.A. Innes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Weston harbours a secret kink and unspoken feelings for his best friend, Cyrus. Convinced his desires are hopeless, he turns to Conner—the flamboyant matchmaker of the Bound & Controlled club—to help him find someone who can fulfill his fantasies of humiliation and submission. Meanwhile, Cyrus suspects Weston is hiding something and seeks Conner’s help to uncover the truth, driven by his own romantic feelings. But when secrets, desires, and meddling collide, the club becomes a stage for unexpected revelations and emotional chaos.

I loved this story with the two men who were friends and also drawn to each other adjusting their relationship to be something more on both the romantic and sexual side taking into account their kinks. I loved that Weston was able to stay on top of all of Cyrus's needs both as his Dom and his boyfriend. A lot of discussion of emotions and feelings as well as kinks and limitations. This was an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like D/s dynamic.

Review: Their Little Helper by M.A. Innes 3 of 5 stars

Their Little Helper by M.A. Innes
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Dally, bold and unapologetically determined, sets his sights on Harley—the gentle giant with a tender heart and a craving for acceptance. To keep Harley, though, Dally ends up pulling Santos into the mix—a snarky, irresistible thorn in his side. Santos knows Dally is chaos incarnate, but Harley’s soft sincerity draws them both in. Caught in the whirlwind of unexpected love, Harley finds himself at the heart of a fiery trio: one Daddy, one Papa, and himself. With laughter, mismatched personalities, and the occasional lap-kiss brawl, what begins as wild compromise turns into a fiercely loyal, found-family bond none of them saw coming.

This was an enjoyable story with chaos, charm, and unconventional sweetness. I did find it hard to read at times as the author's writing style became irritating. I also found it hard to warm to Dally who needed some kind of filter. Easy to read and understand. This was an MMM story with mature content and a BSDM-like DDLB dynamic.

Hiding From Laughter by M.A. Innes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a lighthearted, relationship-driven story about Ashton, who is regretting being a little too honest while crafting under the influence. His "jar of fantasies" has now led to an awkward situation where he’s struggling to explain himself—or maybe just avoid the conversation altogether. Micha, his perceptive partner, knows Ashton is hiding something amusing, and is waiting to see how long Ashton can keep up the charade before finally confessing. As their playful dynamic unfolds, their bond strengthens through laughter, teasing, and unexpected closeness.

This was a fun read and a mix of humour, nervous tension, and affectionate moments wrapped in a fun, personal discovery. Ashton was hilarious at times and Micha was careful and very thoughtful.

I enjoyed this story with the fated mates who met, mischievous locals with their use of spells and the question of what to do about the portal.

Terrence isn't worried about figuring out who his Secret Santa is as all the possibilities are fun. But he’s a little curious, especially when the card is signed by his Secret Santa Daddy. Okay, he’s definitely curious, but since it has to be one of the contractors currently rebuilding his kitchen he’s not worried, but he is hoping it’s the grumpy one. Wait. What was his name again?

They find him just as fascinating as Enzo does, but finders keepers, so the cutie belongs to him. Besides, he’s the only Daddy in the group, so that’s going to work in his favour too. As long as he can get his mischievous little to actually try to guess who his Santa is. When a Secret Santa brings presents and attention, a naughty cutie might need a push to help him remember that the best gifts need a Daddy to play with.I

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Everyone knows Halloween is about playing pretend and finding the best chocolate. But when Boone’s best friend picks out the strangest costumes with an odd backstory that makes Wynn blush, Boone has to acknowledge that something is up. That doesn’t mean he understands why they’re dressed up as a puppy and his Handler, though. Wynn was supposed to be the only one who knew the meaning behind their costumes. But when a barista with a big mouth and a naughty Halloween party spills the beans, he knows it’s time to confess more than just what his puppy costume means. Feelings, needs, and questions are finally coming to the surface, but with two best friends, it’ll take more than toys and tails to rock their foundation.

This was a sweet story of how Wynn and Boone finally confessed their true feelings for each other and found that their kinks were aligned. The coffee shop party was the perfect setting for their kink discussion and relationship discussion to start. I loved the observation that littles were great for throwing balls for a pup.

He knows it’s going to end badly, but Milo can’t help getting dragged to the Lactin Brotherhood meet and greet since his best friend is the definition of persistent. His only goal is to make it out without embarrassing himself, but it’s a stretch goal that’s getting further out of reach before he even gets there. Well, it’s a stretch goal until his best friend overshares about Milo being a little and he ends up running into the most incredible man he’s ever seen. He knows it’s a stupid idea, but Elias can’t help agreeing to go to the ridiculous social event his friend is dragging him to. After being told he’s too serious and has a bad case of a stern resting face, Elias isn't ready to be turned down again. But his luck seems to change when he runs into the sweetest sub he’s ever met and who has the strangest best friend he’s ever encountered. When a chance meeting turns into a first date, two lost men might just find the family they've always dreamed about.

Dean thinks that it is the neighbours’ fault. All of it. Well, not the booze but everything else that lead up to the weird we're going to figure this out exploration is definitely the neighbours’ fault. Dean’s starting to realise he’s not as nervous about their new adventure as he should be but that doesn't mean he hasn't found plenty to worry about. With his roommates and best friends, there’s always something to worry about. Joel thinks that they have the best neighbours, but they've left Joel with more than a few questions. Why do people submit? Why don’t more people like humiliation? Why has it taken him so long to figure out how much he likes his roommates? Yes, Joel has questions, but he’s not going to let that stop him from diving into all kinds of fun. Tate thinks that they are adorably insane, but Tate wouldn't change his best friends for anything. He also can’t deny them much, so no one is surprised when he dives right in to answering Joel’s questions and helping Dean to figure out that caretaking comes in all kinds of interesting packages. New questions might bring curious changes, but he knows he’s the Dom for the job. When three best friends sit down with questions and fruity drinks, it'll take more than second-guessing and alcohol to keep them from lending a helping hand and sharing their passion-filled hearts.

This was an interesting discussion followed by a fun change to their relationship as the roommates and friends explore what they really want in the future. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MMM story with mature content and a BDSM-like D/s and DDLB dynamics.
