Chantie's Book Reviews

  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...

  Book Source: Store Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: Standalone Series Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶/5 Scored (Nashville Grizzlies, #2) Review  When the name Yuri came to mind, it reminded me of the manga Yuri on Ice. And this Yuri may not have been a figure skater nor a uke but he did work on the ice. Even so, the name tugged at my curiosity, and I had to read this novel. This Yuri wasn't Korean but Russian and had much more masculinity to him to be interested in BDSM. That sent my brain into overdrive and here we are a day later. Igor, a retired goalie, and a soon-to-be hockey goalie coach, underwent surgery during the off-season after his retirement. Yuri, his best friend of five years, decided to stay in Nashville to take care of him instead of going back to Russia to spend the off-season with his family. For the first time, the two men were stuck together for more than a few hours. With Yuri's perfectionist side and Igor's stubbornness...

  Book Source: Kindle Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: MM Romance / Standalone Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐/5 Smut Rating: 🌶🌶🌶🌶/5 Step Bully by Willow Dixon Review  When I learned Julian was called Jules, I immediately thought of Jules from Euphoria. Despite the book's description of Jules’s character, I couldn’t stop picturing him as Euphoria Jules. Which was funny because they were nothing alike. Jules and Ash were stepbrothers, who hated each other because of the situation they were forced into. By God, I hated their parents. Even to the end. I was like ‘flip them the middle finger and move the heck on’ but to my dismay, they didn’t. Which kind of pissed me off. Gosh, I am a monster. Anywhos, the boys were thrust into sharing an apartment for their senior year of college. This was where the lines got blurred. I loved the bantering. It was amazing to read. Then other things came in and I was not liking them. At parts where I should have shown sympathy...

Book Source: BookSirens Cross Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Type: Series Smut Rating: 🌶/5 Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Induction (Serving Veronica, #2) Review  This story made me want to have my own harem. If not, then a house like Veronica’s where everyone could be free to be who they wanted without judgment. Like I would freaking love to clean the house naked. Thank you, Jens/Jen for being so awesome with your gender fluidness. There! I said it. Chandra Storm was a genius to develop such a warm environment that even I couldn’t help but adore.  Okay, back to the review. Right. A full rundown of the story. Induction, book two of the Serving Veronica series, held in a Reverse Harem setting with BDSM was about two of Veronica’s submissives slash employees. Greg---awesome Grey---was the personal trainer while Mario was the chef. Everyone in this house had a role to play. It wasn’t all about sex, but people went through real struggle in their lives and dealing with past...

Novel Source: Kindle  Cross-post Review:  Goodreads Review Type: MM Romance Novel  Starred rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Spice Radar: 🌶🌶🌶/5 Savage Rivals Review  Asher and Levi were captains for the football team of rival high schools. Not only were they enemies on the football field but off as well. An elite school against a regular high school. A rich guy against one not so much. Their hatred simmered and boiled over to the point of no return. One banter led to another which broke out into fights. Love came thereafter. A Halloween prank gone wrong and both men were thrust into a different sensation.  I, for one, thought Becca Steele was a genius to write this masterpiece. I enjoyed every second of it. Devoured it in one night.  It had been a while since I enjoyed a story so much. First of all, the football she used was the real football I grew up knowing was actual football. The one where if you touch the ball with your hand, it’s a penalty. I adored that she used t...

  Book Source: Kindle Store Cross-Post Review:  Chantie's Goodreads Review Spice Radar: 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶/5 Type: Novel  Genre: MM Romance  Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Don't You Dare was recommended to me by Goodreads. They thought because I read Luke from the Unexpected Series, I would like this book too. I was never the type to turn down a recommendation. Even though it was not on my November TBR , I squeezed in a read. Public outing, bi-curiosity, and a few other trigger warnings are present. Without further a due, let's get going with the review.  Don't You Dare Review  Don't you dare was a novel by CE Ricci. A friends to lovers romance. This MM Romance started with a game referred to as the title. A spin off of Truth or Dare. Keene and Aspen were nothing more than best friends until the game changed everything. One kiss and Keene's sexuality shattered. Another attempted one and the hidden truth came out. ' Friends help friends, right? It's some kind of hidden...
