Sharing our love of M/M Romance

Clickbait by E.J. Russell: Blog Tour and Giveaway

December 6, 2016 by Denise

Hi everyone, this is E.J. Russell! Thank you so much for joining me as I celebrate the release of Clickbait, my first contemporary novel with Riptide Publishing!
synopsis

clickbait-600x900After the disastrous ending of his first serious relationship, Gideon Wallace cultivated a protective—but fabulously shiny—outer shell to shield himself from Heartbreak 2.0. Besides, romance is so not a priority for him right now. All his web design prospects have inexplicably evaporated, and to save his fledgling business, he’s been compelled to take a hands-on hardware project—as in, his hands on screwdrivers, soldering irons, and needle-nosed pliers. God. Failure could actually be an option.

Journeyman electrician Alex Henning is ready to leave Gideon twisting in the wind after their run-ins both on and off the construction site. Except, like a fool, he takes pity on the guy and offers to help. Never mind that between coping with his dad’s dementia and clocking all the overtime he can finagle, he has zero room in his life for more complications.

Apparently, an office build-out can lay the foundation for a new relationship. Who knew? But before Alex can trust Gideon with the truth about his fragile family, he has to believe that Gideon’s capable of caring about more than appearances. And Gideon must learn that when it comes to the heart, it’s content—not presentation—that matters.

Now available from Riptide Publishing.

meet the author

E.J. Russell holds a BA and an MFA in theater, so naturally she’s spent the last three decades as a financial manager, database designer, and business-intelligence consultant. After her twin sons left for college and she no longer spent half her waking hours ferrying them to dance class, she returned to her childhood love of writing fiction. Now she wonders why she ever thought an empty nest meant leisure.

E.J. lives in rural Oregon with her curmudgeonly husband, the only man on the planet who cares less about sports than she does. She enjoys visits from her wonderful adult children, and indulges in good books, red wine, and the occasional hyperbole.

I'll Tell You What you are by Cara DeeMy review4 1/2 pieces of eye candy!YES! If you've read Cara Dee's books, you know McLean House. You also know that there is another kink group in DC called Old Town that is quickly devolving into a mess of infighting and drama.Well...Old Town is done. Officially shuttered. Reid is relieved but Max is still a bit in flux. He still has his best friend of 25 years, but the kink community they started is gone and Max still hasn't found a label that fits him. Even though Reid points out more than once that a label is self inflicted and not necessary.This all coincides with a yearly trip they take with other like minded guys for a few days of primal play in Florida. And for the first time, Max isn't a top. He is being chased by a top. Reid.This was actually a really great segue to bringing Max and Reid over to McLean House. They have friends there, they just hung on to Old Town for too long. I can't wait for more. ... See MoreSee Less

Deviant (The Firm Book 2) by Cora Rose and Lark TaylorMy review4 Pieces of Eye CandyI really liked book 1. Morally gray, which I am generally fine with, an interesting underworld or society that rights the wrongs the police can't. So ya, I was down for book 2.And the book itself was almost like a tale of 2 books. The first, close to, half of the book is Ansel bumbling through a "kidnapping" of Cade, thinking it was some guy named Brad and Cade just acting like a doofus. But once the brothers show up and the truth comes out that Cade is not Brad, then it gets more interesting and juicy.Once the kidnapping debacle is over, everyone convenes back at the family house where the oldest brother lives. Ansel and Cade are in honeymoon bliss (they aren't married, but you know what I mean) but there is still the question of who wanted Ansel to kidnap a guy named Brad.Once Ansel's best friend Neo tracks him down, besides Neo being a hilarious adversary to the oldest brother, the brothers really try to figure out what is going on.If you read book 1, I'll let you know that there is another hilarious game night between the brothers. Nice comedy in the middle of some more tense storyline.Ansel did seem to accept his fate of falling for Cade pretty easily. That surprised me just based on who he was as a person and his background. Maybe you will like the kidnapping part more than me, but the second half makes up for it even you didn't.I definitely want book 3. ... See MoreSee Less

I’ll Tell You What You Are | Standalone | MM Romance | Cara DeeBuckle in for a wild trip down to South Florida, where Reid has lost all patience with his best friend. The overthinking has to stop. He’s ready to tell Max exactly who he is.Best friends to Lovers | BDSM | Primal Play | Top/Top | Capture Takedown | Family | HEAWell, that was a big fat failure. Never mind the drama that’d made me want to shut down our kink community the past few years—the community Reid and I had started together over a decade ago. It was okay. Hell, it was liberating to walk away. Except for the one hope I’d held out of actually figuring out my own identity in the lifestyle. That hadn’t happened. I was as clueless as ever, and now I was done.I was gonna grow old and die alone and vanilla.I mean, sure, I had some deep-rooted desires, but what was I supposed to do? Ask my best friend of twenty-five years if he could do me a solid and hunt me down in the woods? That would go over well. No, that fantasy belonged in the darkest corners of my mind.Reid and I had a vacation coming up in a few days, where we’d catch up with kinkster friends and have some fun, and then I was closing this chapter.Maybe I’d take up…bird watching or something.Available on Amazon and in Kindle Unlimited: readerlinks.com/l/5070387 #caradeewrites #shelfcontrolled #elizaraeservices #mmromance #mmromancebooks #mmromancenovel #mmromancereads #mmbookstagram #romancestagram #romancereads #romancereadersofinstagram #mmbookrecs #bookishescape #mmbooklover #rainbowreads ...
