Review: Vigilante Twink and the Cop by Jessica Jackman 4 of 5 stars

Vigilante Twink and the Cop: A Dark MM Forbidden Age Gap Romance by Jessica Jackman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Lennox, a lifelong good cop, is shaken when a series of theatrical, message‑laden murders makes him question who the real monsters are. Then he meets Micah — sharp, charming, and always suspiciously close to the case. Lennox knows he should treat him as a suspect, maybe even cuff him, yet he keeps letting Micah slip away. He tells himself he needs more evidence, but one wink from Micah makes him realise he’s already falling.

I loved this story, especially the way Lennox, a man who has always lived by the law, seemed to quietly agree with the killings because the system had so clearly failed the victims. It felt like he was wrestling with his own morality, and I also got the strong sense that his partner knew exactly what was happening and chose to ignore it too. The relationship between Lennox and Micah began like a simple hookup but grew into something far more caring, with Micah looking after the exhausted detective in ways Lennox didn’t expect. Lennox suspected pieces of the truth about their connection, but the reveal still landed with real impact. At the heart of the story is the reminder of why the victims were chosen and the significance behind each action — a thread that adds emotional weight to every chapter. It’s a gripping, emotional read that tugs at your heartstrings and leaves you thinking long after the last page. This was an MM story with mature content.

Review: Dirty Rotten Love by Jessica Jackman 2 of 5 stars

Dirty Rotten Love: MM Awakening Romance by Jessica Jackman
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Rory loses a drunken card game on a North Sea oil rig and has to approach his grumpy boss, Macleod, as a dare. What should’ve been a disaster turns into something surprisingly tender. Macleod is thoughtful, steady, and unexpectedly perfect for Rory’s chaos. A joke challenge becomes Northern Lights, quiet moments, and a connection Rory never saw coming.

I really liked the plot of this story, and some of the moments between the two men were genuinely romantic and heartfelt. But the book was weighed down by constant internal monologues, to the point where it felt like very little was actually happening on the page. The ending also left me confused — the men who were supposed to fix the problem simply bailed and left Rory to deal with it, with no explanation or consequences for their incompetence. Overall, a good premise with some lovely scenes, but the execution didn’t quite land for me. This was an MM story with mature content.

Review: The Wrong Man by Jessica Jackman 3 of 5 stars

The Wrong Man by Jessica Jackman
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Dante brutally mistook Dylan for his criminal twin and imprisoned him, unleashing the darkest parts of himself on an innocent man. When he discovers the truth, guilt consumes him. Now he’s desperate for redemption, forgiveness, and the love he never believed he deserved. Dylan, once the “wrong man,” has become the only man Dante wants — and the one who forces him to confront the possibility that he isn’t a monster after all.

This was an intense and emotional story, especially in the way Dante’s actions left Dylan deeply traumatised. Seeing Dylan slowly recover and reconnect with something familiar — his love of baking — added a much‑needed softness to the darker themes. Those moments showed the lighter, gentler side of him that Dante eventually learned to see and cherish. I appreciated the premise and the heavy emotions woven through their dynamic, but I didn’t fully love the execution. The middle section dragged a bit for me, with little variation in the plot, and the strong elements of Stockholm syndrome and obsession made their relationship harder to believe at times. Still, the contrast between Dylan’s quiet resilience and Dante’s desperate need for redemption created a compelling tension. Their connection, though unconventional, carried a raw emotional weight that kept me reading. This was an MM story with mature content.

Review: Abducted By The Femboy by Jessica Jackman 4 of 5 stars

Abducted By The Femboy by Jessica Jackman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Carlo is used to being feared and obeyed, not drugged, tied to a bed, and confronted by Ginni — his best friend’s cute, chaotic, utterly unhinged younger brother. Ginni has always been a danger magnet in their mafia world, but this time he’s gone further than Carlo ever imagined, all in the name of proving they’re meant to be together. What should be an unforgivable betrayal becomes something far more complicated as Carlo realises he’s not as straight as he thought, and that Ginni’s obsession comes with a fierce, disarming devotion. Torn between fury, desire, and the shocking possibility that Ginni might actually be right about them, Carlo has to decide what happens when he finally gets free: walk away… or keep the feral brat who’s turned his world upside down. A wild, spicy romance about obsession, unexpected attraction, and a love story wrapped in pure chaos.

I loved this story which was a very dark romance that never pretends otherwise. Ginni’s obsession is intense, unsettling, and driven by manic episodes that make him both magnetic and deeply unpredictable. His behaviour pushes the story into genuinely disturbing territory, and the author doesn’t soften the edges of how unhinged he can be. Carlo’s struggle to navigate that chaos — while confronting his own shifting desires — gives the book its emotional tension. Their dynamic is messy, volatile, and far from healthy, yet the connection between them was impossible to look away from. If you enjoy romances that lean into darkness, instability, and morally questionable choices, this one delivers exactly that. This was an MM story with mature content.

Review: My Best Friend Is Broken by Jessica Jackman 5 of 5 stars

My Best Friend Is Broken by Jessica Jackman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Nicky’s life shattered the night his best friend Liam went to prison for a tragic accident that claimed a young girl’s life. Once the golden boy of their neighbourhood, Liam vanished behind bars—cutting off all contact, leaving Nicky to rise alone in a world that now feared and respected him. Five years later, Nicky waits at the prison gates, expecting a hardened man. Instead, he finds Liam broken—fragile, haunted, and clinging to the only person who still feels like home. Their reunion is raw and intimate, steeped in loyalty, grief, and a love that defies easy labels. When Liam begs Nicky to claim him—to make him his—it’s not just about comfort. It’s about survival. But for Nicky, the choice isn’t simple. Giving Liam what he needs might mean confronting his own buried feelings, his own fears, and the possibility that love could be the most dangerous thing of all.

I loved this dark story which asked can someone who’s been broken by their past ever be whole again? And can love be the bridge between shame and healing? The bond between the two men transcended time, trauma, and societal judgment. It explored how loyalty can be both a lifeline and a burden—especially when it’s tested by emotional complexity and unspoken desire. The story also story explored how trauma can reshape intimacy, and how desire can become a form of emotional survival. It asked whether love born from pain can still be real—and whether it can heal. I loved how both men were strong in their own way. So many emotions and feelings were worked into the story and the love that they both shared was strong enough to withstand everything thrown at them. Easy to read and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.

Review: He Should Be Mine by Jessica Jackman 4 of 5 stars

He Should Be Mine by Jessica Jackman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dario, is a bodyguard for a mafia capo, who finds himself falling for Molly, the very person he's tasked with guarding. Dario is captivated by Molly, a beautiful and passionate male sex worker, yet he can also be difficult and rude. Despite Molly's challenging demeanour, Dario sees a vulnerability that makes him want to offer comfort. The central conflict is that Molly belongs to Dario's dangerous mafia boss Ricardo. Dario's job is to protect and control Molly, not to crave him. He must suppress his desire and maintain his role as a "jailer" while fighting his feelings for the man he's meant to watch but never touch.

I really enjoyed this story with the two men who had to live together while Molly had to wait for Ricardo's visits. I did find it hard to read some of the situations between Ricardo and Molly as they read more like rape. I enjoyed the plotting to overthrow Ricardo although I did find the Don's reaction to be a bit strange. Easy to read and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.
