Trouble (Winter Sun, #3) Review


I liked Kirby from book one. Thus, I skipped book two to read Trouble. Like the first book, book three sucked me in from the first paragraph of the prologue. Hugh was a sweetheart. Now I can't decide which Alpha I like better. Burke or Hugh? Gosh, can't I take both? Like I could reverse harem these men. Yep. That sounds better. 

Kirby and Hugh have been skipping around each other for three years. No amount of sweet talk could wear out Kirby. Hugh thought patience would do the trick. Even though the famous porn star, Kirby, made it hard for him to see any light in the dark tunnel of love and relationship. 

Kirby adored the big sexy alpha. Desperate to keep his friend, he made the rule to never have sex with anyone in the circle. Co-workers and nobody else. A great plan until his heat cycle was coming up and his director thought it was great to shoot another award-winning movie, showcasing his cycle. Great. As a porn star, Kirby loved the camera and how safe and pleasurable sex felt on a set. 

The thing was his friend, Hugh, auditioned for the spot as the alpha that would help him ride out his cycle. Kirby was both thrilled and scared. Hugh, on the other hand, was ecstatic. He could use the money to get him a step further out of the debt he and his younger brother were in. Not to mention, the bonus was he got to smash the omega he had wanted since Jesus was a boy. Oh my Gosh, omit that part. 

Once again, the smut scenes were on point. They were hot! Joe deserves a freaking award for writing smut. Like guy knows how to make you want to buy an air conditioner. Damn! Little sweet moments were captured in the mix between Kirby and Hugh. I found myself screaming. I want an alpha to cook with and encourage me when I'm at my worst. Why can't I get that? Reality is shit. 

I loved the story but disliked that at some points when it came to Kirby's self-assessing, it seemed similar to Emerson's. I craved originality. Sure, they went through the same thing. They were both on the streets and whatnot. But, in my mind, Hugh seemed much sweeter than Burke. Kirby went through far more than the young omega. There was a huge difference between them. Show me that like the rest of the story. 

Regardless of that small annoyance, I was over-ecstatic about this one. The relationship had debt and a solid root, springing from friendship. I adored that. Me thinking this is my favorite out of the two stories I read in this series. Things fell in place for me and the sex mellowed out with the romance. Because there was romance. Them caring for each other in the end gave me goosebumps. Seriously, guys, read the shit out of this story. It's worth it.

Coming Up for Air Review

  Book Source: Kindle  Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: Standalone Novel Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶/5 Coming Up for Air by Amanda Meuwissen Review  I stumbled on this story and noticed the merman on the book cover. I didn't even think much into it---not even to read the synopsis---why I took such a chance was beyond me---and got the book. My childhood obsession with merfolks--not Ariel, I hated her---followed me into adulthood. Therefore, anything merfolk and I'm going to read it. This book fell into that category. And, I was glad I decided to read this book.   It all began when Leigh was dumped into the river by the mobster brothers, whom he stole from to appease the mafia he worked for. On the verge of drowning, he was kissed by an angel. Later he woke ashore without the shackles that the gangsters had tied around his ankle. Thinking nothing of it, Leigh went home, trying to come up with a plan to get himself out of the bind he ...

Ugly (Winter Sun, #1) Review

  Book Source: Store Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: Standalone Series Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶🌶🌶🌶/5 Ugly (Winter Sun, #1) Review I was in the mood for an omegaverse when I stumbled on Ugly. My God was I not disappointed in my spontaneous decision. Ugly was that MM Romance I never knew I had to read. Like Burke, you could take care of me any day. Any day.  Emerson, a homeless omega, had found solitude in the bar of an older Alpha for the past three months. He never had a problem with the routine exchange of a few meals for a petty job here and there around the bar with the large alpha. Burke was caring and made him feel safe.  Burke could care less about the chores he asked the omega to do. It was a simple trade. Plus, Emerson never caused problems and often left after. Until one winter night. Three days before his heat cycle started, Emerson ended up in Burke's bar begging him to be allowed to stay until his cycle was over. The...

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...
