Where You Lead by Mary Calmes (5 Stars)

Charming romance about love and compromise. Enjoyed the characters and the simplicity of the story.  What would you give up to be with your soul mate? Pete explores the many reasons behind his decision, and it becomes clear that Carver would do the same for Pete.

Worth Waiting For (FIT Guys#1) by Kim Dare (5 Stars)

I absolutely adored this story along with Colby and Noah. It was so sweet how Colby knew that Noah was the man for him. Noah refused to have anything to do with the young Colby until he was an adult. As soon as Colby was old enough, he was all over Noah. It was so sweet that Colby insisted on taking Noah out on dates. Although Noah said he refused to have any kind of real relationship, Colby was persistent. I liked the way the author skipped over several months at a time to show how they continued to spend time together. Noah didn’t have an easy life, and it wouldn’t have been believable that Noah would instantly become a different person.

The sex scenes are perfect, and Noah’s lap dance and striptease for Colby was smoking hot. It was great when Noah finally started getting possessive over Colby. Noah was extremely strong-willed and in charge unless emotions came into play. At that point, Noah would almost step back and became the less experienced of the two. This made for an interesting dynamic in the relationship. I really enjoyed this and can’t wait for the next book in the series!

Different (Kinky Quickies #2) by Kim Dare (5 Stars)

Stuart’s old boyfriend was a dom, but also apparently quite a jerk. He’s nervous about exploring this side of his relationship with Matthew. However, Matthew is amazing and loving, and Stuart realizes their connection will be what they both want it to be. Told from both of their POVs, I loved the exploration of this angle of a relationship.

Cost of Repairs (Cost of Repairs #1) by A.M. Arthur (5 Stars)

I really enjoyed this one! Slow-building, realistic relationship, steamy hot sex, interesting characters who have quite a bit of emotional baggage, and interesting plot points.  The first part of the book is from Samuel’s POV, the second from Rey’s, and the remainder from both. This really helped in developing the characters and understanding their motivation.  I didn’t want to put it down until I finished. They definitely got their HEA, but there were some open plot points that were resolved in the next story which was just as wonderful.
