Two Chicks Obsessed with Books & Eye Candy

Sharing our love of M/M Romance

Kept in the Dark (Locke and Keyes Agency Series, Book 1) by Charlie Cochet: RB, Excerpt and Giveaway

August 20, 2019 by Denise

Former Army Ranger turned government assassin Álvaro Montero and CIA Officer Caiden Cardosa crossed paths two years ago in Vienna, where their encounter ended less than amicably—despite the explosive sexual chemistry between them.

Now Caiden is riding a desk at Langley after his cover is blown. And Álvaro—who was “killed”—has a new identity and purpose as Delta/D, an operative for the Locke and Keyes Agency, under the leadership of the mysterious Alpha Orion.

When D and Caiden team up in a deadly black ops mission, the urge to kill each other will have to take a back seat to the desire for revenge against the man who betrayed them both. Surviving the mission won’t be easy. Resisting the passion between them—that might be impossible.

Kept in the Dark

Locke and Keyes Agency Series, Book 1

Charlie Cochet

Gay Romantic Suspense

Release Date: 08.20.19

Amazon – Kindle Unlimited

“You don’t need to be a designer to know how not to decorate your house,” D said, scowling at the vintage floral loveseat across from the blue velvet couch. “I think my grandmother had a couch like that. Except it was vacuum sealed in plastic. Nothing like sitting on a plastic-lined couch in the summer with no AC.”

Caiden gasped. “Wait, you had a grandmother?”

“Have. Yes.”

“Which means you had a mother.”

“Have a mother. Yes.” D squinted at him. 

“Where are you going with this?”

“Well, damn.”

“What?”

Caiden shrugged. “I was under the impression you emerged from the darkness below. Clawing yourself out from the dirt, like a zombie or a great evil that’s come back to life after a misguided loved one buried you in Stephen King’s Pet Sematary.”

D didn’t appear impressed. “Funny.”

“What does the Dark Lord look like?”Caiden asked, moving to inspect one of the pillars between two bookcases. “Was he like Tim Curry in Legend or sexy and British like Tom Ellis in Lucifer?”

“He was your height, blondish hair, with green eyes. A mouthy motherfucker who never shut up because he was a smart little shit who thought he knew everything.”

“Wow. That’s pretty specific.” Caiden nodded, removing his tablet from inside his messenger bag. “A mouthy motherfucker and a smart little shit. Sounds like an interesting guy.”

“Sounds like a certain pain in my ass,”D hissed from behind him.

Vengeful Monster by JR GrayMy reviewWell. That book was a lot. Royalty in disguise, secret societies, families of assassins, "phyco-spicy" as one main character puts it and a whole lot more.From the beginning I didn't fully understand why Ash was told to do everything he could to secure a spot in the secret society that starts at his college. Just that it was needed to protect his brother who was next in line for the throne. Rurik is in the secret society and part of the trials for people to join. He sets his eyes on Ash immediately. I will say I didn't like how much Rurick was making sexual advances toward Ash who said no many, many times. Consent is a thing. So that really bugged me because it continued throughout a lot of the book before Ash relented and admitted he was into it.And that whole first act which was a back and forth between the two was really long and repetitive. Especially since I took issue with the consent thing.There also seemed to be huge swaths of time where nothing happened with the trials. It was even mentioned that the last part of the trials really weeds them out because it's so hard. But that didn't happen. And we never even met any of the other wannabes. But once we got down the the nitty gritty...then the book got good. I can usually suss out what is coming, but I was pleasantly surprised by the reveal.So the first 2/3 was a bit slow and a bit non-con with a lot of different characters, I did enjoy the last third.3 PEOC ...

✨TEASER: THE SPARE AFFAIR by @ellafrank1 & @brookeblaine1 releasing September 29th! #PreOrderHere geni.us/TheSpareAffair Why you need to #ONECLICK this book…👑Royal Romance👑Prince x Prince👑Rivals to Lovers👑Competitive Flirting👑Keeping Score👑Forced Proximity👑Slow Emotional Burn/Fast Physical Burn👑Golden Retriever x Black Cat👑Playboys👑Brother’s Ex-Fiance👑Secret RelationshipGabrielWinning people over has always been my greatest talent. One smile, one joke, one perfectly timed wink, and I have them eating out of my hand. But I don’t think that’s going to work so well on Prince Alejandro of Solterra. The man my twin, King Nicholas Valemont, cast aside for his footman in his pursuit of true love. Alejandro is infuriatingly handsome, impossibly stubborn, and determined to turn every conversation into a competition. Every move feels suspiciously like a trap designed to make me—the other Valemont brother—suffer.So naturally, I decide to make a game of it. No feelings. No jealousy. No falling in love. Simple.At least…it was supposed to be.AlejandroI’ve already been the world’s biggest royal headline because of a Valemont once. I have no interest in becoming one again. Then Gabriel arrives—charming, relentless, impossible to ignore—and somehow turns every argument into flirtation and every competition into something dangerously fun. We agree on one rule above all else: no falling in love.It should’ve been easy. Instead, every sharp word, every stolen kiss, every moment no one else is watching makes it harder to remember where the game ends…and where real feelings begin. Because the most dangerous thing about competing with Gabriel isn’t losing. It’s realizing I’d happily let him win. ✨INFLUENCERS: Sign up here to promote this awesome release: bit.ly/THESPAREAFFAIRSIGNUP#ellafrank #brookeblaine #royalromance The Author Agency ...
