REVIEW: Brushed With Love – Fearne Hill

Brushed With Love - Fearne Hill

Genre: Contemporary LGBTQ+ Category: Gay Reviewer: Xanthe, Paranormal Romance Guild Get It On Amazon About The Book Clement Constantine Church is a hot mess. With deadlines to meet. Whereas the striking Viking redecorating his seaside cottage is simply hot.  As a precocious teen, Clem wrote a best seller. Now he writes for other people. Too busy contemplating his bleak career and panicking about pretty much everything, he doesn’t notice that the gorgeous surfer slapping paint across his bedroom walls has a top-notch flirting game. Nor that the body hidden underneath his white overalls should come with its own government health warning. Anyhow, apparently the Viking is straight. After one too many … Read more

It turned out they had a lot in common. Including the way they liked to … Read more

Spells and Sensibility - K.L. Noone & K.S. Murphy

Genre: Historical Fantasy, Romance LGBTQ+ Category: Bi, Gay Reviewer: Tony Get It On Amazon About The Book Theodore Burnett has never been a hero. He prefers comfort to combat-spells, and jam-slathered scones to muddy boots.

But now there’s a wounded captain of the Magicians’ Corps in Theo’s library. And he needs Theo’s help. And Theo can never resist a mystery, especially when that mystery’s tall and tempting and handsome. Captain … Read more
