REVIEW: A Fine Mess – Angel Martinez

by
A Fine Mess - Angel Martinez - Brimstone

Genre: Sci Fi, Humor, Space Opera LGBTQ+ Category: Gay MM, MMM Reviewer: Melissa, Paranormal Romance Guild Get It On Amazon About The Book Beware the demon prince who’s sick and tired of running. Federico Duomo is dead, to begin with. But this is only the first bit of Shax’s problems resolved. Powerful crime lords and an obscenely wealthy oligarch are still determined to destroy him and his crew, and Fluffy’s original owner may be coming after the Brimstone now, too. It would be splendid to be able to take on one thing at a time. Adding to the external conflicts, life on board the Brimstone has only grown increasingly stranger. … Read more

A Message From the Home Office - Angel Martinez

Genre: Sci Fi, Romance, Comedy LGBTQ+ Category: MM Gay Reviewer: Melissa, Paranormal Romance Guild Get It On Amazon About The Book Sissal Naganos, cobra yervath and diplomat banished to the hinterlands, didn’t ask for an assistant, and he certainly didn’t ask for such an annoying one. Being an OIL (Onsite Inter-species Liaison) for the Interplanetary Multispecies Pact has never been an easy job. In fact it’s a crap job when stuck on a backwater nowhere planet like Earth. But cobra Yervath Sissal Naganos manages. The demotion was swift and heavy-handed, but he’ll climb back out of this hell eventually. Humans don’t meet his social needs, so, yes, it’s been lonely … Read more

REVIEW: Smash and Grab – Maz Maddox

Smash and Grab - Maz Maddox

Genre: Fantasy Shifter Romance LGBTQ+ Category: Bi, Gay Reviewer: Melissa, Paranormal Romance Guild Get It On Amazon About The Book My standard issued lab badge reads ‘Simon’ but it really should say ‘unexciting nerd with no social life.’ Don’t get me wrong — I love what I do with a passion, but it doesn’t leave a lot of time for much else. Especially romance. While chipping away at my work, I’m suddenly the person between hired cartel muscle and the fossil that will define my career. Which isn’t the most insane part of the story. My savior is a chaotic, bat-wielding punk with a bubble gum pink mohawk and a … Read more

Dirty Brilliance - Lea Bronsen

Title: Dirty Brilliance Author: Lea Bronsen Genre: Romance, Contemporary LGBTQ+ Category: MM Gay Publisher: Writers in Crime Pages: 72 Reviewer: Melissa, Paranormal Romance Guild Get It On Amazon About The Book Kace Karrington is a wealthy, self-made investor with no qualms about steamrolling others to achieve his goals. He’s attracted to men, but picks up beautiful women, giving the cold, unfeeling world of Finance the appearance he’s successful…powerful. That is until he meets a smoking hot street punk eager to show him there’s more to life than making money. The Review I am always troubled writing a lower scoring review, so I want to take the time to explain the … Read more
