Jacob Stine, one of the owners of the town’s bakery, has wanted Race Carroway since the moment they first met. Despite the obvious tension between them, he’d always assumed that the hunky mechanic would never be interested in him. Jacob had resigned himself to admiring Race from a distance until the day he’s forced to call him for help.

When the encounter turns steamy and then abruptly ends, Jacob is torn between hurt and confusion. He has to make the decision between finally moving on and trusting Race with one more chance. Will the baker have what it takes to get his man?

Book Title: The Baker Gets His Man
Author: Rebecca Brochu
Publisher: Evernight Publishing
Genre: Contemporary,  Alternative (M/M), Romance
Reviewed by Brandi



Jacob Stine hasn’t hid the fact he’s attracted to Race Carroway, and when Jacob takes
his van to Race’s shop for repair, Race takes Jacob in hand, showing Jacob that
the attraction is mutual. Great, right? But before Jacob can get his hands on
Race, Race runs away then ignores him; making Jacob think Race regretted their
one-sided, hot encounter.

Honestly, The Baker Gets His Man, seemed rushed more than it needed to be, regardless of the fact it is a short story. While reading, at least for me, I like to be drawn into the heat building between the characters. Jacob and Race’s first sexual encounter didn’t have that build up, rather a wham bam moment at the beginning. Along with the quickie start to the lovers, there were a few run-on sentences, and repeated words that
should have been caught in the editing. 

There’s no denying that the sex scenes sizzle, and I liked the overall concept of the
story that Ms. Brochu brought to life on the page. Yes, I thought there may be a
few issues, but not enough to overlook the short story as a whole. If you are
looking for a quick read with some m/m heat, I would recommend this book.

After a devastating fiasco on her wedding day, still-single Star Lite longs for peace and quiet to nurse her broken heart. Instead of the uneventful summer vacation she has planned, she's transported to a strange planet with even stranger inhabitants, and an irritating but sexy man named Adam who claims he's a magician. Star senses danger in this place, and her suspicions are confirmed, as  the two humans witness a bizarre display of power from a mad king. They form an uneasy bond and work past their differences as they look for a way to escape, and attempt to reason with two sensuous pixies, who are trying to protect their  ruler. When the king makes a foolish decision, danger threatens the entire planet. Not one to give up without a fight, Star reluctantly agrees to a sexual experiment, where she discovers her untapped power of magic, and opens her heart to the possibility of love.

Title: Out of the Ordinary
Author: Naomi Bellina
Genre: Erotic, Action/Adventure, Sci-Fi, Contemporary
Publisher: Total-E-Bound
Novella Length 
Reviewed by Maven




Out of the Ordinary is the first in a series of adventures to come. It’s original, and a cute, quick read about a school teacher from earth who is struggling with the aftermath of a relationship gone bad, perhaps some dissolution with her career, and a whole lot of depression. After receiving a box from the father of a former student, she finds herself whisked away to another planet where she meets a human man, Adam, and some strange inhabitants. 

This was my first time reading this author, and there were some great moments in the book, yet at times the story felt a bit rushed. However, I’m sure that can be worked out as the author develops the series. The relationship that builds between Star and Adam was written well, and there’s an
extra bonus of twist and turns with an ending that will leave you wanting to know more. 

For those who like Sci-Fi, with a side of action and romance, you will enjoy reading this book.
