Two Chicks Obsessed with Books & Eye Candy

Sharing our love of M/M Romance

Taken Back (A Steamy M/M Romance) by Cali MacKay & Jullie Farrell: Release Day Blitz

July 27, 2016 by Denise

Taken Back Cover

synopsis

Sometimes you need to go back to your past, in order to move on to your future.

Jax Hunter has spent the last ten years trying to forget his first love Nathan Steele—and the brutal betrayal that derailed everything he’d worked so hard for. Jax has finally gotten his life back together, when Nathan returns to deliver another blow – his company is set to bulldoze the bar he’s built from nothing.

Ever since that summer in high school, Nathan has been denying his feelings for Jax—the only person he’s ever loved. Nathan knows Jax might never forgive him, but when Nathan’s uncle is murdered and Nathan might be next on the hit-list, Jax is the only one he can turn to.

Jax still doesn’t trust Nathan—not with his bar, and for damn sure, not with his heart. But the more time they spend together, the harder it is to resist the undeniable passion between them. Can they overcome their past hurts and learn to trust each other again? Or will another betrayal tear them apart forever?

    Well based on the blurb, it seems that this book will have the second-chance theme, which is one of my FAVORITE romance tropes. Count me intrigued!! Thanks for the giveaway chance (and hi Cali & Jullie)

I’ve had a stalker before, and apparently—even after involving my friend from the FBI—he’s decided to come back and make my life hell.But this time, however, a slightly terrifying stranger shows up to play hero.He knocked my stalker on his ass and left me with blood smears on my jaw and a kiss on my lips so devastating, it threatened to rearrange my whole life. And then he disappeared into the shadows.But just when I think I’ll never see him again, I find him haunting my steps everywhere I turn.It’s not long before I realize hunting me might be his love language, and god help me, I think I’m into it. Especially when each time he catches me, he leaves me breathless and wanting more.My stalker is still around, but being with Archie is worth whatever the unwelcome blast from my past wants to throw at me.After all, having a boyfriend with a thing for knives, coffins, and funeral flowers is a great way to protect myself, and if his obsession and love for me isn’t enough to take my stalker down, my determination to get my happily ever after will.Hunt Me is the first book in the morally grey rom-com series Murder Hearts. It’s a spicy, MM stalker-to-lover romance with forced proximity, coffins as a special interest, an Autistic MC, a Deaf Drag Queen who doesn’t have time for anyone’s BS, stalking as a love language, a set of lovable murder brothers, an unhinged cat café, and a steamy, swoony, happily ever after.✨INFLUENCERS: Sign up here for this amazing release: bit.ly/HUNTMESIGNUP#corarose #emlindsey #mmromance The Author Agency ...

Unfortunately, he thinks I’m a prick.Rupert might be uptight and annoying, but he’s also the most interesting man I’ve ever met, and I’m utterly intrigued by him. When one casual hangout blossoms into friendship, I can’t help feeling I’ve misjudged the man I’ve spent months annoying.But Rupert guards his heart carefully. He’s convinced nobody wants to be around someone so prickly and sensitive, and refuses to let anyone in.I’m not one to back down from a challenge, and I know there’s more to the bright, beautiful man next door than he’s ever let anyone see. It won’t be easy, but I’m determined to show Rupert he’s not the unlovable irritation he believes himself to be.In fact, we might just be perfect for each other.✨INFLUENCERS: Sign up to review this awesome release: bit.ly/toppedsignup#coverreveal #charlienovak #mmromance The Author Agency ...

My review: Chase by Raleigh RuebinsI fell in fast with this one. WhewI feel like I've known guys like Chase. Just kind of a mess because of ADHD, family trauma, drugs, alcohol, etc. And so many of them are artists. Like Chase.And when he first meets Logan...things are interesting. The hot and heavy affair- no labels- continues while Logan is in NYC. But eventually he goes back to LA. But a year later...We don't see what happens in that year they are apart but Chase does some serious growing as a person. So when they meet again, Chase is more the man he was meant to be. Their story was deep, complex, full of feeling and growth. I absolutely loved them together. Logan was afraid of Chase getting sucked into the social media celebrity machine like he was. Chase thought he wanted to be there. Have people recognize him. Get his art out there. They both need to find a happy medium to the chaos.4 stars instead of higher just because there were continuity issues that bugged me. Especially something fairly big that happened toward the end.4 Pieces of Eye Candy ... See MoreSee Less
