***5 'HAIL MARKET GARDEN BOYS' STARS ! ***

IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT HOLY.

HOLY MOTHER OF SIN!



IF I’M GOING TO HELL BECAUSE OF THIS, I’M SO DEFINITELY WILL DRAG Aleksandr Voinov and L.A. Witt’S CUTE ARSE FOR THIS !
I MADE NO MISTAKES WHEN I CHOSE THEM AS TWO OF MY FAVORITE AUTHORS.

When they’re writing ‘clean romance’, it’s obviously clean. When they’re writing sins(Yeah, you heard me!), they write SINS. IN CAPITAL. And I freakin’ loved it.
The combination of Blake,Jason and some *additional player* will leave you hot and bothered.
Just keep you AC on and read it ALONE. Because, these will happen to you!







GOT THE HINTS? *SMIRK*

Market Garden is one of EPIC series I have ever read, and loved, and obsessed about. Blake Raleigh (Phew! Glad Rolex is finally has a name), is one of my favorite perverted, voyeur, hottest patron in the world of sinners.
And the combination of Blake and Jason (the most expensive prostitute in Market Garden), was LETHAL. And Jason is definitely WORTH every penny Blake spent. And I’m telling, when I said Jason is ‘expensive’ , he’s REALLY is expensive. [(A bargain between pile of cash and Audi with triple it and Blake’s name to win him, not cheap at all, my friend, not cheap at all) (hide spoiler)]

Intermezzo (True Story) : When I finished this book , I went to shower (of course…eye rolling), and I put some shampoo on my hand, and I shampooed MY BODY, not my hair! I didn’t concentrate of washing my hair FFS! I was still thinking of THEM. Damn. (Don’t laugh. You’ll be in my position later. Seriously)
Somehow, I found this one is very classy 

Prince Charming may have been able to awaken Sleeping Beauty, but Jason’s kiss could bring a half-dead businessman
into the correct time zone, wake him up, and give him a hard-on. Disney, eat your heart out.

Just imagine, if his kiss taste ‘like that’, no wonder Jason had become Blake’s new religion. Ha !
This book should come with warning, it’s a total E-burning and you can not read it in public or with people’s around you and prepare a cold shower after. Remember , shampoo is for your hair, not to wash your body (facepalm me).



Five stars for for the whole series, and this one I was easily became my favorite.
The ending was HFN , but it was reasonable, and I think somehow, Blake and Jason will work it out soon after this. Burn so many bridge and all.
Recommended it highly!
Read this in reading order, to get to know who’s Blake as Rolex before Jason. You won’t regret it. Aleks and Lori wrote it’s best in this series.

*ARC given by Netgalley for review*

"“I found answers I didn’t know I was looking for. I found forgiveness where I didn’t know I needed it. And I found love I didn’t know existed.”"

I was skeptical when I read this story. I'm not really into a Christian Romance. And reading some reviews, there's no sex, it's clean romance, which I rarely liked. But, hey, we don't need sex if the story was 'that good', right.
But this is L.A. Witt writing as Ann GallagherAnn Gallagher. So I give it a try.
Right from the start, I'm hooked!

I loved Colton and Isaac's chemistry. They're definitely made for each other.
One homophobic and one with a tortured trauma, it was a hard composition, made they made it !
I really loved Pastor Mike and Ruth. Best part of Colton and Isaac relationship ! And there were Chris and Julien from No Distance Left to Run , oh how I missed the guys.

Colton stole my heart with what he had been though, with the trauma and shitty parents. You know, parents who wanted to 'CURE' their son's homosexuality, blah lah blah !

"“I’ve found a therapist in town who specializes in curing homosexuals,” his father had declared. “He’ll fix—”
“That’s the part you want to fix?” Colton had asked coldly. “I’ve been raped, pimped, homeless, and hooked on things you’ve probably never even heard of, but priority one is getting the gay out of me?”

And the struggling Isaac with his 'unknown sexuality', that made his ex wife run away and Ruth tried to open his eyes about that. The feeling inside, the fight with his inner self, that's a hard battle for sure. Not very easy to accept who you really are, unless, something hit you on the head and makes you 'wake up'!

"“Colton, wait.”
Against his better judgment, Colton turned around.
Isaac spoke just loud enough for him to hear: “I’m sorry.”
“Not as sorry as I am.”
Colton thanked God for his pounding heart. At least that drowned out the rest of Isaac’s pleas long enough for him to get inside and let the big steel door slam behind him.

And there are some sweet moments that made me hold my breath, especially the first kiss.
Oh.My.God.
Isaac and Colton's first kiss was THE.BEST.EPIC.FIRST.KISS.EVER.!

"“Because the first step toward healing is knowing the truth. And for some people, the next step is knowing your apology was heard by the heart it was intended for.”"

I hope I can write a proper review for this one. But the problem with books I loved, is always, writing a review.
This one is a must read. Highly recommended !

Review : Silver & Black by Tyler May

*** 2 Stars***

What did I think?

What did I think?

What did I think?

Hmmmm....



You want honest? Okay. I enjoyed the 50% of this book, even I recalled some 'similarities' with 'that one famous book' and some books after that. And the next was just felt flat.
Here's my list...

Billionaire
Stalking
Research
Contract
Penthouse
New smartphone
And the texting
”What you do to me?” (remember this?)
…all of “He’s a good man” thing ;)
Quotes :
“I’m a complicated man, Mr. Black, and I’m very selfish. So when you agree to want me. I expect it only to be me.” Whoa, this just changed directions.
“I have specific tastes and I don’t date often. It took a while to find you and I want you. All of you.”

Didn't it reminds you of a very famous quotes... "My taste is very singular, Miss Steele"... (?)

Oh, well.Ring any bells, guys?


I dunno, maybe it's just the pattern? Or, I'm just being a nagging reader? Point my nose, blame me!
I found myself put it on hold a few time, because I was kinda tired. I was bored.
And I'm cranky when I'm bored.



And, to be perfectly frank, I don't think we need book 2 in the future.
The 'twist' at 90%, was just Mr.Silver being 'not very communicative' to Mr.Black.
Worth my time? Not so much.






The back cover of paperback "reminds me" of this.I hope it's just coincidence.

*** 5 stars!***



Guys, this is what I need in my MM books, the great chemistry between heroes, enough portion of angst (not over the top), flawed heroes, good family, pets, great friendship, and grannies!!!
So far this one is my favorite of the series, Felice Stevensnailed it this time. I was really glad I finally read this one, and I'm re-reading it now! So worth my precious time!

Micah and Joshua are so adorable together. And I loved how patience Josh to Micah, even Micah hurt his feeling a few times (and I really wanted to slap Micah's head at the time), guess Josh is just the right man for Micah.
i loved Micah with his flawed behavior, the jealousy and his love for Lucky, the dog. It's kinda funny, actually, when they had a fight, and Micah told Josh that he'll keep Josh because he can't live without Lucky! Awwwww..... These guys are really made for each other.

I love the Grannies! OMG! Ethel and all her bossy attitude, won my heart. And Alex....I know there's something he's hiding. I hope Felice would give him his own story. With Rafe, maybe? *wink*

Oh, and the sex was.... a panty wet worthy! Hot and sexy!



This is about friendship, love, acceptance, finding your true passion, family. This one is just... Complete!

I finished the book with a smile on my face, and still can't stop thinking about it. Beautiful!
I want to read more of this kind of story from Felice and my favorite authors.

Highly recommended!

Damn you C.J. Bishop !!!!
I need book 2&3 NOW !!!!

Cowboy Gangster, Axel and Clint's story is so far the best one of the whole series. And Clint and Axel were easily became my favorite couple !

This is a spin off of Phoenix series, the earlier 18 books, I don't think you can read it separately, because it's tightly as a continuation of the series.
I considered it as book #19.
You can give us another 50 CJ and I will definitely read it all !

The Prelude made me worry about their future, and the pain was already there, torturing me while reading their "earlier" story.

I know it's not going to be an easy ride with the next book, ugly crying guaranteed in the future. But I know I have friends to hold in to, and hope for a better for Axel and Clint.

Axel was easily erased my hatred to him to become loving him for what he had been through, and Clint saw that Axel has the power to make him submit and weak.
Clint, a criminal, mob, hitman, and all uglies in life, but I now his story will break my heart soon as it will reveal.
Clint, as in Axel's story, is a 'hero' in my story too. All the love he gave to Axel, leave me breathless.

I hope, in the "three months after", Cory would be Axel's best friend and stand beside him, because I know that he need Cory, when he's is crumbling down and Clint need Cory to be with Axel as his guardian angel while he's back to his old shelf.

All we can do now, is hope, that HEA is waiting in the end of their journey, because I know, Axel and Clint deserved it.

And I hope I can see Cory'-s story in the future. I was losing hope with Shay. :(

You are an amazing story teller CJ !
I'm a slave to your stories !

Highly Recommended!


Note.
I'm not a beta reader, didn't received the ARC , or a good friend of the author, neither I'm an ass licker.
This is an honest review.

"For future references," he murmured with that pulse quickening drawl as he approaches slowly. One hand slid though Axel's hair, cupped the back of his head and drew Axel,'s lips to his, "I can hear a pin drop in on a bed of cotton,"

We’re afraid because we feel vulnerable and don’t feel like we can defend ourselves. I could stay by your side for the rest of your life and beat down every threat that presented itself, but you still wouldn’t truly feel safe until you knew you could take care of yourself.

He was wrong - memories could still hurt a person. Cut them open and leave them bleeding.

"Oh, a word of advice,"Jimmy said as he opened the door. "If you want to convince your neighbors that you're not gay..." A grin cut across his face. "Probably shouldn' scream out your boyfriend's name during sex." He winked. "Chereio."

"He said no one had ever needed him for anything, or even depended on him. And it made him feel good to be needed, to...take care of someone...even in something as insignificant as that. I think, on top of everything else, he feels...unnecessary."

"You're a hero," he said quietly. Hero. Clint had been lot of things in life, but never that. His heart continued to go wild in his chest. "I usually play the role of villain," he admitted. Axel shook his head and cast Clint another of those knee-weakening sidelong smiles, his eyes glowing. "Not in my story." His lips twitching, Clint murmured, "So I'm in your story am I?"

"But all of this,...you...it scares the hell out of me. I survive by being in control. But you..." Clint touched the tip of his nose to Axel's. "You strip away my control."
"Do I want you Axel?"
"I want you so bad I can't breathe."

If he lived ten lifetimes, he doubted he would be able to solve the mystery of this kid's power over him. Just a glance from those eyes could command him. And that smile enslaved him. The "why" was no longer important.
