Still Here by A.J. Knight
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ellis has built his life around quiet, safe spaces, especially the punk record store that became his refuge after losing his father and his mother to alcohol. When the shop is sold to confident outsider Issaky Jones, Ellis fears everything stable is about to disappear. But Issaky surprises him — offering support, patience, and a steadiness Ellis didn’t expect. As resentment shifts into attraction, Ellis also discovers a box of old love letters that mirror his own journey. When grief strikes again, Ellis must choose between retreating into silence or trusting the man who keeps showing up for him.

The writing swept me away completely — I felt every emotion and every quiet, aching moment Ellis went through. His inner world was so vivid that it was impossible not to live it with him. I especially loved how Issaky was gentle, patient, and instinctively understanding, giving Ellis the time and tools he needed to communicate and feel safe. Their connection felt steady, tender, and beautifully earned. Ellis’s autism was handled with such sensitivity and respect, and I genuinely want to congratulate the author for portraying it so thoughtfully. This story brings both tears and smiles, wrapping grief, healing, and love into something deeply human and quietly powerful. This was an MM story with mature content.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Eli is homeless, scared, and hiding from a painful secret he left behind in Los Angeles. When his boss at the Charles River Suites discovers him living in the basement, Eli flees—too afraid to accept help, even from the kind and commanding hotel owner, Avery. Avery is haunted by the encounter. He wants to help the frightened young man, but Eli vanishes into the cold Boston streets. At a shelter, Eli finds temporary warmth through Ryan, a volunteer whose lifestyle echoes the one Eli once dared to explore.

As Eli begins to trust and open up, the question looms: can he truly surrender to Avery’s care and protection when the secret he carries threatens to unravel everything?

I loved this story of vulnerability, power, and the healing that comes from being truly seen. There were a lot of emotional stakes and quiet intensity in the story which fit It well. I liked that Avery wanted Eli and that the BDSM lifestyle was not a mandatory requirement. Lots of emotions and feelings in this story.

His Wayward Little by L.G. Knight
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Warren Andrews met Sapphire Reyes two years ago on her birthday. He knew the moment she spoke that she was his, but she didn’t. What was worse, she was married, and Warren didn’t mess with married women. A little over a year ago, her husband died. Warren has stood back and watched for two years, first standing back because of her marriage, then allowing her time to grieve and help her kids get their new normal. He’s done waiting. He’s ready to claim his wayward little and nothing is going to stand in his way. But can he coax her out when everyone else in her life has told her she needs to hide who she is?

This was a sweet little story of how Sapphire struggled after her husband's death, that he tried to help from afar until she got to breaking point and he helped again in a more visible way. I liked that he was careful of boundaries and asked for consent. A feel-good book to make you smile. This is an MF story with mature content and a BSDM-like DDLG dynamic.

So he goes Daddy shopping on age play night at a Manhattan BDSM club he spies a handsome silver fox. However, before Ellery can make a move, his friend warns him away from the mysterious Daddy. Calvin’s boy dumped him so he resolved not to bring potential subs to his home anymore. Better he finds out whether he clicks with someone first by confining his boy hunt to clubs. When Calvin notices a sweet young thing he’s never seen at age play night, he wonders if he might be ‘the one’. Ellery never had the chance to meet his dream Daddy, but fate intervenes in the most spectacular of ways. Still, the question remains: will age play be the answer to his kink dilemma? And will Ellery allow Calvin to fulfil his most secret fantasy?

This was a sweet story as Ellery explores age play with the help of Daddy Cavin and they find out they were very compatible. Everything moved quickly but it was obvious that they were both captivated with each other. Time passing was sometimes a little strange as there was a change in the paragraph with a blank line to make it a little more obvious but it needed to be more explicit. Easy to read and understand.

Review: The Complete Father Series by Morticia Knight 5 of 5 stars

The Complete Father Series by Morticia Knight
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This trilogy follows two men and their relationship with each other. Seth was brought up in a very conservative Christian church and as soon as they discovered he was gay he became evil and a sinner. He was sent repeatedly to a special camp to fix him as he was a deviant but eventually, he was able to run away and escape. Malcolm was a good Daddy for almost ten years until his boy died and left him brokenhearted. Instead, he avoids clubs, and old friends and is unable to find a purpose in his lonely existence. On yet another night in a dive bar, he witnesses a sacred young man being harassed by two bullies and it jolts him into action - no one messes with someone vulnerable and helpless on his watch. Malcolm starts on their journey of love, healing and redemption.

I adored this story with the abused boy who thought he was evil thanks to his conditioning and grieving Daddy Malcolm who realised that he could love again and that caring for Seth was something he needed to do. I loved going through their joint journey as they found trust, affection, love and forever. There were desperately sad moments and your heart just broke for Seth and the abuse he had experienced but there were moments of humour (like when Seth first visited Malcolm's parents). Easy to read, feel and understand you will cry at times. This is an MM story with mature content and a BSDM-like Daddy/boy relationship with some light D/s.

Dear Daddy, Please Keep Me by Morticia Knight
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Eric uses the Cuffd letter to Santa promotion to write a letter asking for one or two Daddies as he is always accused of being so needy. Friends and one-time lovers. The two men who respond together are Clint and Dalton who love each other and have tried a relationship but it would never work as they are both Daddies. Could Eric be the boy for them?

This was a sweet story full of the Christmas spirit. Eric was adorable and airline pilot Clint and Developer Dalton were just perfect for him and each other. I loved the way they were supportive of him in his career and gave advice when asked for it but were careful to never decide in a high-handed way. Easy to read, feel and understand. This is an MMM story with mature content and some very light BSDM-like behaviour.

Brutal by Morticia Knight
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Devante is a hitman working for the powerful Zakarian family and Micah is an academic specialising in ancient artefacts. The pair will have to travel the world looking for a missing artefact said to originate from Atlantis. Micah is perfect boy material and is still a virgin while Devante is trying to resist him and is just rude, pushy and snarly. The hunt intensifies and danger surrounds them at every turn. No one can be trusted. Ultimately, will Devante kill Micah, or protect and keep him? Either way, he loses. If Devante doesn’t complete his mission he’ll be the next target.

I enjoyed this story with the grumpy hitman who has been assigned bodyguard duty (which feels like childminding sometimes) and the confused academic who is very observant but has no idea how to behave sometimes. I loved the push and pull between them and the way that Devante was already behaving as Micah's Daddy before he had realised that was what he wanted. Lots of danger and drama as they faced multiple betrayals. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like DDLB dynamic.

He lives with his boy and Little Ryan and when he begs Zane to help a young homeless man in trouble he doesn't hesitate but does wonder why Tyrese is vague and in trouble.

When Ty reveals why he is so terrified Zane realises he will have to protect both of his boys and that they will need to outwit the enemy.

I enjoyed this story with the established Master and his Little who helped someone who became a part of their relationship. I loved the way that Ty gave Ryan what he needed when he was Little if his Daddy was not available and that he cared for him so that he was safe and happy.

Asher Griffin first met Daddy Lee Petrovsky when he was a young pup and just starting his kink journey. But he was flighty and full of himself and so left. But he was miserable and never stopped loving him and he is now back in town hoping that he can somehow get him back. Five years ago Lee fell too hard and fast for pretty Ash and since then he tried to only seek out more mature boys but no one has ever crushed the walls of steel he keeps around his heart. Can Ash prove to Lee that this time it isn’t just a case of puppy love?

I enjoyed this story with Ash trying his best to get back to his Daddy and try to start again (if he can only get a second chance with him). I liked the way that Ash's plans failed but Lee was able to find him and give him the chance that he needed. It was also nice to have it centred around the Pet Play at the Lake events which have their own series. This was easy to read, feel and understand. This is an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like DDLB dynamic with spanking and puppy play.

Diva Pop by Morticia Knight

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Silas Jones takes over the management of Three Trick Pony a dance music sensation due to the departure of their original manager and there are some doubts about the status of the band partially due to the behaviour of the lead singer Jett Fine and his diva attitude. Silas would love to get him alone and give him a spanking but he'd love to do other things to him too. Jett finds it hard to believe their record company hired the biggest asshole he has ever met to manage them. He'll have to get him into bed so he can have him wrapped around his finger. But what if Silas is the one with all the tricks up his sleeve?

I enjoyed this story with the brat Jett and the Daddy Dom Silas and how he found a way to tame him and get him to start to think about his behaviour and reasons for them. I did think there could have been more detail on the reasons and how he could move on from that. I also felt that more could have been made of his relationship with his mother. It was sweet the way he changed and the way that Silas took care of him. Easy to read, feel and understand. This is an MM story with mature content and a BSDM-like DDLB dynamic with some spanking and dressing in lacy underwear and heels.

Grief-stricken Tate Myers is having trouble coping with the fact that the man he loved as his Daddy and Master was an evil serial killer. So he attempts to get any kind of answer he can from someone he thought should understand - his Daddy's best friend and former undercover cop, Rogan Steele. It seems they were both completely blindsided as he has nothing to offer but friendship - after all he had no idea about their relationship dynamic and the need that Tate has for a Daddy. As they become closer Tate knows that Rogan can be the Daddy he needs but he needs him to be brave enough to not run away from what he was born to be then they might stand a chance to have forever.

I enjoyed this story with the broken Tate, the fractured relationships, the protective Rogan and their developing romantic relationship.

Boy Issues by Morticia Knight
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Silver Cruz is 26 and works on fast and often classic cars. He is a Daddy and is looking for the right boy to take care of. Donovan Fonterra is 42 and a billionaire CEO with a love of fast cars and mindless hookups. When Silver does a quick fix to help Donovan out he rebuffs the sloppy attempt to pick him up by Donovan who then decides to pursue him. Seeing Donovan for what he is Silver just has to bide his time until he can become his Daddy and help him out.

In some ways, I enjoyed this story and in others, it was a bit lacklustre. I enjoyed the passion that Donovan had for life and the way he did things requiring adrenaline to mask his pain, but I did find it strange that he was so cowed by his brother and father with regard to his sexuality and the way the company was run. I realise the point that it was the confidence that his Daddy gave him that enabled him to do something about it, but it seemed a bit false. This was an MM story with mature content and a BDSM-like DDLB relationship.
