Review: Earthquake Ethan – R.L. Merrill

by
Game On - Amy Aislin - Vancouver Orcas

Genre: Contemporary LGBTQ+ Category: Gay Reviewer: Maryann Get It On Amazon About The Book The Earth shook the morning actor Ethan Bradley arrived in Los Angeles looking for a second chance. He hoped his former producers Reese Matheson and Toby Griffiths meant it when they said to look them up if he were ever in LA because he had no other options. The pictures the paparazzi took at the wrap party for their London show made sure of that. What he wasn’t counting on was the reception he got from their manager, Arthur Frye. He was absolutely the kind of together guy Ethan wished would notice him, and for more … Read more

Fritz - Jacke Keswick

Genre: Contemporary LGBTQ+ Category: Gay Reviewer: Maryann; Gloria, Paranormal Romance Guild Get It On Amazon About The Book Fritz Bronnley lives to keep his men safe and happy.

Answering an unexpected call for help sounds like an even better one. But when Fritz ends up rescuing a tough, opinionated cutie who doesn’t know why he’s been kidnapped, and who’s too stubborn to give up, his heart might be in as much danger as Hollis Crewe’s life.
