It has been a while since I can’t put down a book under any circumstances so I’m ecstatic to have discovered such a book. 😊
Sam is geeky, lanky, awkward and unapologetically a hopeless romantic. 😁 You gotta admit, according to Sam’s logic, there’s some certain truth to the deliciousness and the OTT tropes of romance novels. Hunky, devilishly handsome and brave heroes and swoon-worthy romances. 😉 And did I forget to mention sexy lairds with kilts? 😏 *wink wink* 😉 So when he met Ian who is the epitome of all his romance novel wet dreams come true, Sam knew he is THE one. The only issue is that his sexy laird bear didn’t seem to reciprocate his epiphany that they are soul mates. 😂 In fact, his sexy laird bear wants nothing to do with a geeky, lanky nerd like him. But Sam is not going to give up so easily of his romancelandia dreams. After all, isn’t it a heroine’s ultimate mission to convince the rakish hero that they are meant to be? 😁
OMG! Sam is just precious! 😍 And endearing, and funny, and kind and just so beautiful. 🥰 I loved his banter with Ian and his inner monologues were just pure gold. And who knew our meek, shy geek has a seriously kinky side. 😁 And Ian, our rakish, devilishly handsome laird sexy bear who redeemed his worth ten fold in the end. 😊 I loved that sexy man with a beautiful smirk. 💚 From the beginning to the end, I was just mesmerized and enthralled by these fabulous characters. Not only the romance between Ian and Sam is sweet, romantic and swoon-worthy, it was realistic, sexy and oh-so-erotic! 😁 Omg, the smut in this book was just amaaaaaaaaazingly smoking-hot! 🔥🔥🔥 Shin likey! 😋 I was also in love with secondary characters of the story so I’m sure I’m going to read their stories very soon. Again, if you are looking for superb banters, beautiful characters and a romance to die for with a healthy side dish of super erotic smut, you found THE one with this book. 😉💜

But I loved it!!! 😍 It was really good, emotional and beautiful. In my opinion, contemporary and regency romances are the most difficult to write because you need to get the facts right. It’s much easier to write omegaverse, fantasy, imaginary or alternative universes since they give you much more room to be creative and manipulative with the facts. And I think Riley Parks nailed this contemporary crime romance novel. 😌 I still can’t believe this was a debut novel .. I mean it was really fantastic! 💙 Now, let’s get to the actual reviewing. 😁
Evan, been homeless for years and recently joined a street gang as the last resort to survive. Although he’s just 21, he’s been on his own for almost a decade. Sleeping in public places and shelters, eating shitty food, always desperate for drugs .. he finally decided to join Killer Klownz with the help of his younger brother who’s already affiliated. Being in a street gang can fulfill most of his needs, a place to sleep, a shelter, food to fill his stomach, drugs that he desperately loves … except one thing, a nice tight arsehole to fuck whenever he wants. 😜 As you can guess, you can’t really be an out and proud gay while being in a gang. Gangs mean drugs, sex with beautiful women and violence. So he did what every desperate closeted gay guys do in Chicago .. Go to the infamous Humboldt park and find an anonymous willing partner.
Jackson, an important member of “Dem Demonz” and the best cocaine distributor of the south side. Been streetsmart for years and have survived the ruthless street gang world of Chicago for more than a decade. A true experienced and capable street veteran. He has almost everything he needs, money, power, influence, a nice comfortable life and a very beautiful girlfriend of 6 years whom he has no interest or affection. He has been known for years that he likes guys and he likes to get fucked. 😉 But that doesn’t make him gay .. it’s just sex. An itch he needs to scratch every now and then. 😁 And what better way to scratch that itch by going to a public park and find a nice, willing, hard cock to drill his arse. 😂👏
Without knowing they are from the rival gangs, our two protagonists met in the Humboldt Park in the middle of the night on a fateful day. The sexual attraction is instant, palpable and electric. One has a very thick and long and red 9 inches cock and one has a pink pouty magic mouth and a resilient and tight arse. And you want to know what the problem is? That idiot magic cock owner carried no magnum condoms to accommodate his enormous member and the magic mouth owner only had regular condoms. Being very disappointed and just pleasured each other by sucking off, both men went home thinking and pondering non stop “what if”. 😁 And they met again after one week and had the most intense, satisfying and toe curling orgasms of their lives. 😂👏 Although Jackson never repeated his rendezvous with the anonymous hookups, he’s truly hooked to that magic cock and he agreed to meet that magic cock owner again a few days later. And 15 hours to their rendezvous, both men learned that they are from the rival gangs and they are supposed to hate each other to guts and be archenemies. 😁 Jackson knew it’s a terrible idea to still meet Evan after he learnt that he’s from a rival gang. But he just couldn’t seem to control himself. For the first time in his life, he’s truly attracted to another human being. He wants more than just fucks in a public park. And thus, their unique and atypical relationship began. 😌
I love both MCs. I can’t decide which one I love more. I mean both men have baggages .. enormous and deeply rooted baggages. And for Evan, it’s even worse since he’s a coke head. And how Jackson took care of him and made him realize that life is worth living for and fighting for. 😍 He didn’t tell Evan to change his way .. he guided him to see the right way and to realize the life they could have had only if he’s not immersed in drugs. And talk about the epitome of a man who knows how to love! OMG! I love Evan!!!! 😍 Who got himself intentionally incarcerated to be with their boyfriend??? 😍👏 Oh, one Evan plssss!!! 😁 I want a man like that! And again, I’m always wishing I have both organs down there too! Lol! 😂👏 Ok, TMI. 😂 I really really loved how the story unfolded. I mean what do you expect when you read a story about two rival gang members in love? Extreme violence, shooting, killing and drugs and rape. Nope, not at all. The story was focused on the romance and relationship aspect between Evan and Jack and how their love blossom from a bud to a full grown beautiful tree. 😍 I really loved everything about the story. I was quite worried that they weren’t going to get their HEA but how they spectacularly get their merry HEA. Love, loved, and loving itttt!!!! Still can’t get over the fact that this is a debut novel. And I’m really impressed by the research of all those usages and terms of Chicago underworld. So hats off to Riley Parks and keep up the good work gal! ❤️ Now, you officially became my next victim in my never-ending author stalking scheme. 😂👏
Favorite excerpts from the novel: 💗💜💗
”That ass. It was firm, thick, and fucking perfect; the definition of a bubble butt.”
“It was perfect: as thick as it was long and straight as an arrow. He loved the way it had lain full and heavy on his tongue while he was giving head and how deliciously it had stretched him during the nanosecond it was in his ass.”
“And I’m yours. Every fucked-up part of me… yours. Do you know what you’re getting yourself into?” Evan asked.
“Loving Evan was both the easiest and hardest thing Jackson had ever done.”
“How you’re such a good boy for me, take my cock so nice. How I love you, never loved anybody the way I love you. Can’t wait to fuck you for the rest of our lives.”
“Any amount of time with Jackson wasn’t enough, each hour ephemeral.”

I owe everything to Cupcake for finding this book and reading it. Her ”unicorn porn” comment made me gallop to Amazon page and purchase it right away I owe everything to Cupcake for finding this book and reading it. Her ”unicorn porn” comment made me gallop to Amazon page and purchase it right away and I’m so glad that I did. 😂 I love this book sooooo much. ❤️ This is a total package, it’s funny, witty, sexy and has a good amount of angst and darkness. I love it. 😍👏
So the blurb explains most of it. Vorgell the barbarian accidentally killed a unicorn, ate the flesh and fucked himself on the unicorn horn. 😁 It’s a very powerful aphrodisiac and it made him horny as hell all the time. When he was captured by the baron’s soliders, he was thrown away in a jail cell where he met the most beautiful, delectable and nubile young man whose ass he desperately want to stick his cock in. However, the young man is not so innocent as he looks, he’s a witch and he used Vorgell to escape there.
Madd is a cunning and manipulative young witch who was collared as a love slave against his will by Baron Flemgu. He hates this man to the guts but he couldn’t refuse him because of the love collar. His grandma was also killed by the baron and he practically used him as a manwhore not only for him but also for his friends and he hated every single second of it. When he tried to defy the baron, he was thrown away in the cell and later, a giant barbarian was also put there as a prisoner. As soon as he learnt what the barbarian did, he knew that he could use his blood to plan their escape and he did. But the thing is he couldn’t seem to escape barbarian as they end up running together for their lives.
The world building of this fantasy world is just amazing. 👏 The imagery is very vivid and the dialogues are to die for. 👍 While running away, they began to build an unusual friendship and companionship and they started to really rely on and have feelings on each other. The banters between them are just gold. 😁 Hilarious! 😂👏 The plots and the storyline are impeccable too. I could never guess what’d happen and that’s the best thing ever. And the sex, Oooooo, the sex is just on fire. 😜 Hot and dirty and titillating. 😘 With that being said, this book is not all about witty banters, love and friendship, there are some very dark parts that gave me goosebumps. However, that was necessary in the story and I really like that the author wasn’t afraid to go dark. I love how everything turned out in the end but I want even a longer story. This is not enough .. I want more of Vorgell and Madd. 😭 I desperately hope there will be a sequel in the story because I really want more of these two’s adventures. So delicious. 😍❤️😘
Favorite excerpts from the novel: 💗💜💗
“That cock might be a monster, but it was also magnificent… rosy, long, and thick, with a luscious, big head poking free of the foreskin and glistening like the jewel on a scepter. The only way that knob could be any shinier would be if he’d been licking it.”
“Damn it, what was happening to him? Was he actually… fond of Vorgell? And why shouldn’t he be? The man was sex on the prowl, predatory, healthy, and built to enjoy lovemaking for hours on end. Madd would never find a man with a more beautiful cock, or one so perpetually ready to give or receive pleasure. Considering the magical gifts attached… hell, he’d be a fool to turn Vorgell away.”
“I believe that’s for me to decide. What I want, who I want… what I need.”

And I really regret that I didn’t read this one sooner because I really REALLY loved it. ❤️ I’m a great fan of gladiators and slave-fic romances. So this really is my wet dream come true. 😁
Devon is the sovereign of a rich province. Being a good general and a great leader, people have certain expectations for Devon. And one of them is for him to be always in authority and in control. But Devon longs to submit, at least in the silky sheets of his bed chamber and that is one wish that won’t be fulfilled as a sovereign. And to make the matters worse, the subject of his fantasy, the man he wanna submit to is Xan, the champion gladiator and a desert rebel whose life he pardoned a few years ago. It’s the battle between heart and head. And Devon needs to be in control and let go of it at the same time to get his ultimate happiness. 💜
It was a really well-written enemies to lovers trope romance with a healthy dose of beautiful submission. 🥰 And don’t forget, our sovereign is a virgin! 😱😂 And I loved the mystery/suspense aspect of the storyline. It was jus very well-paced and sexy. And damn, the smut was smoking hot!!! 🔥 I loved every single second of those two in sheets. 😉 Loved it! I hope it will be available again on Amazon soon because more people need to know about this little tasty gem. 😌

I loved the first book but I’m nuts over heels in love with this one. 😁❤️ I think I could read ten books about Nathan and Vince and won’t get tired ofI loved the first book but I’m nuts over heels in love with this one. 😁❤️ I think I could read ten books about Nathan and Vince and won’t get tired of them. 🥰
So .. from stalking to becoming boyfriends, Nathan and Vince are in their own little happy bubble, mind you though, a bubble filled with nuts and sunflower seeds! 😁🥜🌰 But Vince is becoming more and more insecure about their relationship. Nathan has met his family but he has never met any other were shifters let alone Nathan’s family. Meanwhile, Nathan is also afraid that Vince would finally think he’s more trouble than worth it when he introduces him to his nutty family. Squirrels usually don’t like drama but his family thrives on it. 😂 So Nathan decided to test run Vince and tried to introduce him to other not-so-nutty were shifters. However, when does plans ever turn out the way you want to? 😏 Before family dramas, Nathan must first call upon his inner Alpha squirrel to defend his human lover/squirrel worshipper and mark his property once and for all before it becomes too late. 😉
To say this book is cute and fluffy and gooey would be such an understatement. ☺️ You just can’t help but melt every time Nathan squeaks or chirps. 🥰 And Vince is the purrrfect boyfriend! He’s just completely in love with his chubby, little squirrel and pampers him like a god. And oh my god! Nuts and honey porn guys!!! 🌰🥜🍯 I will definitely think about these two next time I eat honey. 😂 That was one very erotic scene. 🔥 And I loved the squirrel drama at the campsite and all those adorable side characters. A nosy were-hummingbird, mischievous were-red pandas, playful were-goats 💜❤️💜 .. OMG!!! 😱 Cuteness overload!!! 😍 I think this series is going to be one of my comfort listens from now on. 😊 The story itself is genuinely lovely and fluffy and John Solo’s enthusiastic and superb narration made this audio into one of the cutest stories I’ve ever listened. I simply can’t wait for the next book in the series because mama won’t never get enough of a chubby, fluffy squirrel and his human lover/worshipper. 🥰💜🐿🐿🐿

Carr for finally finding that perfect boyfriend or LJ for finally getting a girlfriend of more like a coatfriend? 😂 Anyhow, as usual, this book is as crazy as ever and just as brilliant and captivating. I died laughing at the part where they finally found an antidote for feral books! 🤣 I’m super happy to find out that 6th book in the series is also about Carr and Erasmus. 😱 And yes, I instantly fell in love with Ras just by his name. After “Captive Prince Trilogy”, I’m a sucker for anyone who’s named Erasmus! 😉 What a perfect boyfriend for our diet-challenging, severely broken vampire. 😁 It was a beautiful love story and equally enrapturing storyline! Well done you, Angel! 👏
Oh .. what a delightful and fantastic read. I never want Ondry and Liam’s adventure to end. Lyn Gala could publish a hundred books in this series and Oh .. what a delightful and fantastic read. I never want Ondry and Liam’s adventure to end. Lyn Gala could publish a hundred books in this series and I’m sure I’ll read them all. I love it!!! 😍❤️😘
So we start from where we were left off from book 2. Ondry was named tuk-ranked by oldest grandmother in Deidell and now he and Liam are on a spaceship traveling to earth to do trades with humans. The situation is a mess since the grandmothers on the ship neither acknowledge nor deny Ondry’s tuk status. While Ondry is struggling to be acknowledged him as tuk and fighting for his pride and for the opportunity to do trade with Imshee so that he can extend Liam’s lifespan, Liam is also struggling with nightmares and inner turmoils and hesitating to meet human beings again. However as the approach to earth is becoming nearer and nearer, Liam becomes more desperate and scared. His only touchstone and inner solace is Ondry. 💜
Ondry might not be the first lover Liam had submitted to, but he was the only one Liam trusted to protect him.
And my god!!! 😱 LG included kissing in this book. Lots and lots of tender and passionate kissing. And Ondry loves it a lot and thinks it’s very similar to performing “ilsil”. 💗💜💗
Ondry pressed his lips against Liam’s. For a moment, they were locked in place. Then instinct took over. Liam parted his lips and explored the unfamiliar shape of Ondry’s mouth. His eyes closed, and he slid his hand around the back of Ondry’s neck. Ondry curled his tail around Liam’s leg and then used his arm to pull Liam close to his chest. Following Liam’s lead, Ondry parted his lips. Liam felt the tentative flicker of Ondry’s tongue against Liam’s lip. 💋💋💋
And sex, lots and lots of tail sex. 😊 Ah .. I’m a one happy gal reading this book and can’t stop smiling like an idiot. 😌 This novel is about facing your biggest fears and overcoming them so that you can truly move on and be truly happy in your life. 👏 I love how Ondry was supportive and caring of Liam. He’s the epitome of tender loving masters. 😍
However, Ondry cherished no memory more than that of Liam stumbling toward him, clinging to him in search of protection.
Ah, I became a putty in LG’s expert writing. I looove the ending. It didn’t leave loose ends on earth and wrapped up very nicely and perfectly. But I need more!!! I need to read more of Ondry and Liam ~ *sigh ~ and I also wanna read Zach’s story. I really hope another installation will come out soon. And I want to contribute special thanks to Chelsea for encouraging me to dive into this series in the first place and for her utter love and enthusiasm for Ondry & Liam. O&L forever!!! 💙😘💙
Favorite excerpts from the book: 😇 ~ *sigh* ~
My desire for you is greater than my desire for status, and you must know how much I crave status.”
A palteia is the only being a Rownt can ever love unconditionally and keep forever.”
“You are so beautifully mine,” Ondry whispered.
I will defy the gods on this matter.” “You don’t believe in the gods.” “Then they will be easy to defy,” Ondry said.

I have told this time an It’s not easy for something be so exquisite and beautifully done when it’s only about 28 pages/less than an hour of a listen. I have told this time and time again but it’s much more difficult to write short stories because you have a very limited amount of words and everything needs to be precise and adequately described. And boy, did Miss Bacon nail it with this one.
I am not going to say what the story is about since it’s very short and I do not want to spoil any brilliance of this exquisite bite-sized snack. Rather, I’d say what this story makes me feel. Rago is whimsical, magical, beautiful and it makes you believe in destiny and true love. It was funny, romantic, hopeful and enthralling at the same time too. I really couldn’t get enough of Laahn and Rago. And I really hope this isn’t the end of the journey for these two because I certainly want to see more of these two. Michael Fox is definitely the right narrator for this book and I am really enamored with his performance in this one. Overall, this is perfect for you whenever you are in a mood for delightful little listen with some yummy macaroons and a heartwarming cup of Joe.

My sweet, precious and innocent Lanu ... the world would be a much more beautiful place if everyone was like you. 🥰 Ok, enough fangirling and onto reviewing. 😉
All his life, all Lanu knew was the couch he slept in, the cushion he knelt on and the countless men who came to him for his sights. Being an Oracle, Lanu has the ability to foray into the future but in real life, he was blindfolded all the time and he has never seen all the amazing things he saw in his visions. His life is extremely dull and monotonous but Lanu never knew no other way. Until he was kidnapped by a band of vagabond bandits and suddenly, Lanu’s life has become upside down. There are just so many new things to learn, discover and enjoy. And Colin is definitely one of them. Colin, the chief of the bandits, who is extremely handsome, wild and kind to Lanu’s naïveté. May be life is more than being an Oracle in an unchanging temple. May be Lanu’s destiny is to fall in love and be with one his one true love. If only Colin soon realizes Lanu is the love of his life and more than just a kidnapped Oracle to exchange for bounty money.
OMG! If you still don’t know it by now by my fangirling, I looooooooved Lanu, who’s so innocent, sweet and kind. 😁😍 He’s just one in a million. 🥰 The things he did and sacrificed for love!!! Man, that was just sooooo romantic. 💜 And Colin, oh the wild and kind Colin, how he took care of Lanu and introduced him to so many new things including the pleasure of flesh. 😏 He looks callous and uncaring on the cover but the guy is a big softie and a romantic. I loved how Lanu has become a man from a naive child. And the world building and the storyline and the plot twists!!! 😱 That’s very impressive world building and story telling. I couldn’t get enough of these two. And well, the sex was scorching! 😁🔥🔥🔥 I do demand a sequel although we did get our happily ever after. ☺️ I’m not done with Lanu and Colin yet. They made me cry, they made me laugh and they made my heart ache and go “awwwwwww” a lot. 🥰 Loved it to the moon and back! Already can’t wait for another book from Salem Fitzgerald. 😉
