Whit (Unexpected, #1) Review

Spice Radar: 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶
Part of Series: Yes
Genre: MM Romance 
Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


I first bumped into Whit on my surf through Goodreads. One of my friends was reading it. Though it was a part of a series, I was in the mood for reading a male-on-male romance. And I was glad I did. This queer romance involves triggers such profanity, sex scenes, self-harm, mentions of child abuse, and coming out. If any of these floats your boat, then let's get into it. 


Whit (Unexpected, #1) Review 

Whit (unexpected, #1) written by Cora Rose was a MM masterpiece. Caleb, the protagonist, was a once straight guy, who became curious about his roommate, Whit. Curiosity did not kill this cat. He got the good-good. Two men with opposite personalities had one thing in common. The desire for the other. Their time together as roommates pushed them to accept each other. It never helped much when Caleb got sick, and Whit had to take care of him. Things went downhill from there. Or uphill. It depended on how you look at it. 

Both characters were amazing. I couldn't even be upset when either made the wrong choices. Whit, included. I felt his pain when I shouldn't. Cora did a wonderful job in conveying each character's emotions. I loved every minute of it. Caleb's family was the best. I fell in love with every one of them. His cousins were to die for. I adored them.

To be honest, I was a bit upset that Caleb was the uke. That disappointment didn’t last long, though. The back and forth interaction between him and Whit kept me on the edge. I loved their chemistry. Oh, and the disaster was just amazing. I did not see it coming. At all. There were a few misplaced names, but nothing to hold back from the story. It’s a short read, so easy to flash through.

I ended up loving the novel far more than I intended to. I rated Whit five stars out of five stars. I recommend this BL romance to readers who are struggling with their sense of self. It doesn't matter what others want us to do or be, as long as we love who we are, we will survive. We can move forward. Love doesn't have to come from blood relatives but strangers who turn into friends and family. 

Go ahead and enjoy. See you in the second book Sem

The First and the Last Review

  Book Source: Kindle Store Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Spice Radar: 🌶🌶🌶/5 Type: Series Genre: MM Romance  Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 I was in desperate need of a quick read. This book came to my rescue along with Str8te Guys by Evangeline Anderson. Loved that erotica by the way. Also a MM Romance. I was more than happy I stumbled on these two books. Read them in one night. Yeah, one night. Who needs sleep when we have a book, right? The First and the Last Review  The first and the Last was a MM Romance by Jessi H Reign. A friends-to-lovers omegaverse. The paranormal romance began with the growth of Sully and Jules from their high school years until they became shifters. The two saw each other as best friends until a Storm flew through their pack. Okay, not an actual storm but a woman called Storm. A mind-blowing threesome and the males realized they liked the experience of each naked a little too much.  I hoped that wasn't a spoiler. But, I th...

Home Plate (Easton U Pirates, #2) Review

  Book Source: Book Store Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: MM Standalone Series  Starred Ratings: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Spice Rating: 🌶🌶/5 Home Plate (Easton U Pirates, #2) Review The electricity went out in my area and while bored I read book one, Bat Boy in this Easton U Pirates series, in one sitting. I'm a sucker for character arcs, so when I noticed Mason and Domonic in Bat Boy, I immediately shipped them. It thrilled me to know my intuitions were good and the duo was going to be a couple. So, I continued the trend and stayed up until the blink of dawn to read book two. Not a healthy idea since I had stuff to do in the day, but I wouldn't be a bookaholic if I never did an all-nighter for the sake of reading.  Back to the review.  Mason was the grumpy asshole while Domonic was the caring type. He wasn't overly adorable which fit his character and how the whole plot tied to Mason. I adored the banter between the two. Dominic knew how to handle Mason. H...

Sucked Review

  Book Source: Kindle Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: Erotica Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶🌶🌶/5 Sucked by AR Taboo Review ‘She can’t keep it out of her mouth’.  I went into this one with an entire baggage of curiosity. I noticed a friend read and gave a review. Two sentences got me wanting to find out what it meant. There was nothing there for the book bio/synopsis which enhanced my urge to know what the hype was about. Knowing me, I got a little too curious, and rushed to read it. I gobbled up this thing without batting an eye. No one would think I was reading anything smut worthy much less as taboo as this. Like what the heck?  I’ve become so desensitized to these things that nothing affects me these days. No triggers. Not even this Novella. At this point, I could wave down the train to hell and buckle myself in. This was just…I’m lost for words.  Father reunited with daughter after years of not seeing each other. That was just ...
