Sharing our love of M/M Romance

Ice & Sweet: An MM Christmas Romance by Charlie Novak: New Release Review

December 5, 2024 by Denise

Falling for my crush at my ex’s Christmas wedding? Piece of cake!

Making the cake for my ex-fake boyfriend turned best friend’s wedding the week before Christmas was easy. Carting it halfway across England in the snow was not. Especially not when a blown-out back tyre leads to me coming face to face with my long term crush for the first time in five years.

I’ve known André since his days of boyband superstardom, but since I was supposed to be dating one of his bandmates, I was never able to act on my feelings. But now we’re both single and stuck in a hotel for the weekend with our interfering friends who seem determined to push us together.

But maybe André and I don’t need a push. Maybe all we need is a chance to see if the spark we felt all those years ago is still there.

After all, it is Christmas. And that means anything could happen.

Amazon – Kindle Unlimited – All Regions

This book just made me happy. The two main characters are connected to other side characters we know. So that brought in mentions of other characters who already had their happily ever after. But they stayed out of the way and didn’t demand the spotlight. So even though we didn’t know Andre and Luke, they are still part of the world we know in Charlie Novak’s books.

Being that the book started at a wedding two weeks before Christmas, I was thrilled to know that this wasn’t a two strangers meeting romance or an enemies to lovers romance or even a friends to lovers romance.

Rediscovering each other as people, but on a different deeper level than before. Neither afraid of PDA or moving too fast or being too clingy. They also had a similar background, which put them on more of an even playing field, in terms of status. No worries there.

There were, in fact, no worries. Ok, a bit about their odd work schedules, but still. No worries, no angst, no drama. Just two guys falling in love right in time for Christmas.

Two Chicks Obsessed with Books and Eye Candy
✨ TEASER: TINSEL & TOOLS by @authorkimberlyknight & @rachellynadams releasing November 7th! Pre-Order now at your favorite book vendor as it will be exclusive to Amazon on release day! #PreOrderNowbooks2read.com/u/mZDeWy Why you will love this book…🎁MM Romance🛠️Bi-Awakening🎁Holiday Romance🛠️Small-Town Romance🎁Opposites Attract🛠️Blue Collar🎁Forced ProximityCole Maddox isn’t looking for romance. After a painful betrayal ends his marriage, he returns to his small hometown to work alongside his dad and keep his life simple. He knows his way around every tool in the box, but nothing prepares him for the writer from New York who tempts him with things he never imagined.Gavin Price used to believe in love stories. Now he’s grieving the loss of his parents, staring at a blank page, and wondering if he’ll ever write again. Inheriting a rundown inn in snowy New England feels like one more burden, until the straight handyman renovating it helps him find inspiration. As their connection deepens, Gavin’s work begins to blur the line between fiction and reality. The story he’s writing could expose the secret relationship they’ve tried to keep hidden, and Cole isn’t sure if risking his heart is worth it when privacy is no longer certain.Under the glow of twinkling lights and tinsel, a small-town handyman and a big city author might just discover that the best stories aren’t the ones you plan, but the ones that linger long after the last page.Tinsel & Tools is a holiday MM romance full of opposites attract tension, forced proximity, blue-collar heat, and a bi-awakening that turns a season of repair into a season of love.✨INFLUENCERS: Sign up to review this awesome release: bit.ly/tinselandtoolssignup#kimberlyknight #rachellynadams #mmromance #holidayromance The Author Agency ...

I’d always been told I couldn’t be gay and play rugby, but my teammates are proof that isn’t true.Now I’m fixated on all the filthy things Ezra, the Knights’ hot, older Head of Marketing, might do to me. Maybe I shouldn’t be flirting with him, but I’m too intrigued to stop. Ezra’s life is as messy as mine, however when he offers me a safe way to explore my feelings without judgement I can’t resist.Neither of us is here for a relationship, and neither of us is ready for one… So why does Ezra make me feel things I’ve never experienced before?Would it be wrong for me to fall for the man with the shattered heart?#newbookalert #charlienovak #bookstagram #booktok #mmromance #kindleunlimitedThe Author AgencyMy review: 4 Pieces of eye candy! Fun, fun read...First we have Ezra, recently divorced, sworn off love, crappy apartment, "old", drinks too much vodka.And Danny, rugby winger for the team Ezra does social media for. INTENSELY tidy, questioning his sexuality and with that his attraction to Ezra. In a previous book, Danny asked some inappropriate questions to out gay team mates which pissed them off but honestly wasn't done with any bigotry. He had already begun questioning himself.I really loved Danny. Well, I really loved both of them, but Danny especially. Ezra calls him puppy and while often that is a kink thing- it isn't with them. Danny is genuinely like a golden retriever wanting belly rubs and to make people happy.Danny is apprehensive of coming out. But not for reasons you would think. Ok, maybe one of the reasons. Gotta love homophobic parents.They followed the path of just messing around to, huh I like this guy. A lot. So very little angst, a lot of fun. I adored Ezra offering treats to the players to get them to play his social media games. And Danny about broke my little heart with one of the biggest hesitations he had about coming out.Definitely give these guys a read. ... See MoreSee Less

All of them. So even though this book left me wanting a bit, I'll still read them.This one gives us American royalty in Shep and a literal prince from Monaco, Theo- the spare. Shep is tasked with keeping Theo in line for his brother's wedding. Which is fine, but I never got that kind of vibe from Theo in previous books. But maybe I missed it. Anyway, Theo goads Shep and they wind up with pants around their knees. In a church. So that happened.Shep tries to deny Theo. Theo pushes all of the buttons. Someone is threatening Theo but we have no idea who or why. And a lot of the plot is kind of left behind as they have sex ALL of the time. Like, all of the time. I don't know if there's a chapter with them keeping their clothes on. And that was my biggest issue with the book. I wanted more plot.King and the rest of the "Kings" are back in NY trying to figure out what is going on and who is threatening them but we don't see much at all. Give them a lead to follow even if it's nothing. Some covert ops since they think the threat is coming from inside the club. ANYTHING. We get some angry calls from King. And after a few of those I wondered why Theo was a King himself since King (I know) doesn't seem to like or trust him very much.And then it ended on a cliffhanger. So the next book is them as well. Which I know I will read because I have to know.These authors have a huge fan base and they love all of the sex driven stories, but please give me more. ... See MoreSee Less

Belladonna: A Gay Romance Soap Opera by AE Via My review: 4 Pieces of eye candy!This book was so fun. It really read like a soap opera.All of the storylines center on men who are staying at Belladonna. Broken hearts to get healed. And if they find their true love, then that is just great.Thorn is the patriarch (for lack of a better term) of Belladonna. He built it, he owns it, he loves every man who stays with him as a brother. Each man who is there has a story to tell. Each man who enters Belladonna also has a story to tell. There is drama (of course!), romance, sex, surprises, hope and love. And while some men move on and move out of the house, that just means there's room for more. And I really hope there is more!The format was just so fun to read and unlike anything else I've read. I really hope the soap opera continues! ... See MoreSee Less
