#Throwback: A Little Bit Rock & Roll

 
 Kyle thought he had it all. That was until his band's tour bus becomes stranded in Wyoming during an epic snowstorm. When rancher Colt Billings offers assistance, everything Kyle thought he knew is tested and he is forced to face emotions and truths that he has managed to hide most his life.

The last thing Colt needs is an attraction to a young rock star, but ever since he opened his home to the band to wait out the storm, Kyle consumes his mind. Keeping his distance from the long-haired singer is just not an option.

When their two worlds clash, they must work through their feeling as their passion grows, and secrets threaten to end it all. Just when things look like they might work out, tragedy strikes, adding new insecurities and issues the two must overcome, making them wonder if love really is enough.

"Tell me I'm not wrong." Colt's voice lowered to almost a whisper. "Tell me the reason you don't go out with women after your shows is because you don't like women."

Kyle froze, unable to tear his gaze away as Colt's fingers linked with his and he pulled their joined hands up between them and pressed them to his chest. He could feel the beat of Colt's heart through his jacket and his own pounded so hard that he thought it might force its way right out of his chest. He didn't want to pull away, but he never admitted to anyone other than Carl that he was gay. To actually say the words scared him.

"Kyle?" Colt brought their joined hands higher, kissing Kyle's knuckles. "Tell me you want this too."

Kyle couldn't speak so he nodded. He wanted this, wanted it worse than he could remember wanting anything. His blood raged through his veins as he watched Colt turn his hand and kiss his palm before pulling him closer. Feeling their chests brush against each other, Kyle gasped. Colt smiled, dipped his head, and captured Kyle's mouth softly with his own.

Kyle didn't mean to moan, but the soft sound that rumbled through his chest sure sounded like one. Colt's lips moved over his as his body ignited. His free arm came up wrapping around Colt as he felt Colt's do the same to him.

Colt's lips were soft yet firm as they moved over Kyle's for a moment, then opened, gently sucking Kyle's bottom lip between them and releasing, before doing the same to his top lip. Another moan and he parted his own lips, allowing Colt to deepen the kiss as he felt Colt's tongue lick over his lips and slide inside his mouth.

Kyle followed his lead, his own tongue meeting Colt's as their mouth's meshed together harder and the kiss became more demanding. He felt Colt's arm tighten around him and pull them closer until their thighs brushed over each other. Kyle couldn't stop himself from leaning into the embrace and another moan escaped him as he felt both of their aroused bodies brush fully against each other. His cock pulsed, feeling Colt's against it, and he wondered what it would feel like to feel it without the clothes between them.

#Throwback: Blue Moon Too Good To Be True

 Angel DeLucca is one of the most sought after gay bachelors in Virginia Beach, but when he tries to find true love, no one takes him seriously. After a one-night stand goes wrong, he comes into contact with hunky, straight, firefighter Maximus (Max) Strong, and Angel’s mission in life is now clear.

Max’s older, protective, brother, Ryker secretly craves the attention and praise of a Master. Angel’s Security Chief, Master Dom, Sebastian ‘Bass’ Bagetteli, shatters that secret with their first intense encounter.

These men’s stories will unravel in a whirlwind of romance, bondage, revelations, action scenes, and very hot sex.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18697605-blue-moon?ac=1
“Mmmm, I’ve missed your touch Angel.” Max’s cock was hard as steel. Angel had withheld sex until the doctor confirmed his concussion was not an issue and his lungs were healing fine.

“I missed you too, darlin’…and I need you, but we don’t have time right now, we need to get over to the club. Your brother wants to meet us for lunch.”

“Oh come on baby, my dick is gonna explode if I don’t release soon.” Max ground down hard onto Angel’s cock, pushing him deeper into the plush comforter.

“Well, you will have to wait a little while longer handsome,” Angel teased as he held the end of his braid and rubbed it up and down Max’s neck, then back up to his face, feathering it over his cheek.

“Your hair always smells so fucking good. Feels so soft. I bet it would feel like heaven wrapped around my cock.” Max moaned. His eyes remained closed as he enjoyed the silky texture of Angel’s hair on his face. The smell of almonds and coconut assaulted his senses.

Angel’s eyes went wide at Max’s confession, and he let loose a pained moan. Fuck yeah. In one swift motion Max flipped them over so that Angel was on top of him. He slowly pushed Angel’s head down to his groin. Angel’s tongue came out and licked a path down the length of Max’s hard chest. He dipped into his belly button, eliciting a passionate moan from him.

Max took Angel’s braid and wrapped it around his weeping cock three times. His back bowed off the mattress at the first stroke.

“Oh my fucking God!” Max rapidly stroked the silky braid up and down his pulsing shaft. He thrust his hips in synch with each stroke, as he pumped his dick into the softly braided cocoon. He rose up to look at the erotic scene, and knew he wasn’t going to last long. It’d been at least three weeks since he’d come, and this act was so wicked nasty that it was catapulting him over the edge fast.

“Dammit, you sexy motherfucker! Fuck yeah… take what you need Max.” Max used him, used that long, beautiful hair to get off…and boy was it getting him off. Max’s was in sheer ecstasy.

“Augh! Fuck, Angel…I’m coming…I’m coming!” Every muscle in his stomach was clenched tight, as Max shouted his release. His hot come shot out of him like a geyser. Over and over, ropes of pearly white come coated Angel’s thick braid. Max groaned deep in his throat. His chest rose and fell rapidly with each labored breath. With both hands now gripping his braided-textured cock, he leisurely pulled up and down as he spastically drew out the last bits of his orgasm. “Fuck, babe.”

Max looked back into Angel’s shaded eyes and saw the rabid lust that lingered there. It’d been a long three weeks for both of them. He was in a state of raw lust and desire, unable to control his actions.

Angel climbed up Max’s hard body and sat on his chest. He grabbed a handful of Max’s hair and made him tilt his head back. Angel only had to pump his aching cock a couple times before his come shot out of his shaft, hitting Max’s chin, and neck. “Fuckin’, shit!” Angel growled and bared his teeth as he used his sensitive cock head to smear around the come that dripped down Max’s chin, marking him in the most primal way. Max soothingly rubbed Angel’s strong arms, coaxing him to release the brutal grip on Max’s head. Max felt owned.

“Damn, Angel…that was so good. Shit. Can’t believe you let me do that. I’ve fantasized about it since I first saw you.” He smiled at Angel.

“That was fucking hot. Only you could do something like that to me, love.” Angel looked at his come-streaked braid.

“Fucking right, I’m the only one.” Max grinned.

“Now come on, you’re going to wash your jizz out of my hair…and I’m telling Ryker that his baby brother is a kinky freak with a hair fetish, that’s why we’re late.” Max let Angel pull him up. He turned him to the bathroom and slapped him on the ass. Max helped Angel get cleaned up. They both dressed in casual clothes and headed to Angel’s club. Max finally felt better than he had in weeks.

This story was one that caught me completely off guard with how much I loved the story.  For me to cry while reading a book, shows a lot of how great of a story it is.  And trust me, I cried like a baby in this story.

Not bad crying, but good crying. The type of crying that a person has when they are sooooo happy and pleased, which was totally the case with this story. I thought that the characters that Ms. Samuels created were so well thought out, and so individual, I just couldn’t get enough of them.

And it wasn’t even the main characters, but also the secondary characters as well.  They were all so amazing and Ms. Samuels leaves you enough hints as to what to expect in the future books.

Overall, I think that this was a great start to a new series, and I can’t wait to start the next book and find out what happens there!
 
This book has several characters that all play an important role by the two main MC’s are Merek, King of Sanzel, who has come to earth with his brothers to find their mates. And Vance, a mechanic that has lived in the same small town his whole like, just waiting for the right man to come into his life to love him as much as he knows he wants and deserves.  Every Saturday Vance and his best friends play baseball and for the last few weeks he has noticed a very handsome guy watching him. Finally this guy starts wondering past the auto shop and they start a conversation. Slowly, Merek starts wooing Vance in a way that Vance has never been treated before. But can this be real? Can Vance really believe? And can Merek trust his aheri, to listen, love and want the same things that he wants?

This is my first time reading this author and WOW was I hooked. The old world charm that Merek pulls out to woo Vance swoon, brining him food, drink at work so he will stay nourished. The undying faith that Vance has to have not only to believe in Merek, but to believe in himself, that he deserves this chance at happiness, finally. The chemistry between these two, you can feel coming off the pages.  The way Vance automatically wants to protect Merek even without understanding way. All makes for an amazing read. Jumping into book 2.
 
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
Prince Magnus Sorenson is a warrior who is used to the isolated life of a soldier. He is responsible for the safety of his royal family and their subjects and is haunted by his failure to protect his parents. Magnus never expected to find his aheri—his beloved mate. He didn’t deserve him.

Archer Stockton is a humble carpenter who plays baseball with his buddies on the weekends. Archie is a gentle giant with a pure heart who was beaten by his father for being gay, causing him to have to learn to talk, read, and walk again. He knew he wasn’t much of a catch. Mag deserved better.

Magnus knows Archer is perfect for him. Archer brings love and gentleness into his life. Miraculously, Archer can see through the glamour of Mag’s world. He also sees the beauty of their future and the babies they will have together. Magnus is a soldier who is afraid. Afraid to hope.

****WARNING****

BE SURE TO HAVE LOTS OF TISSUES WHILE READING THIS BOOK!

Archie.  Sweet amazing Archie.  If I had to say one reason, and only one reason to read this book, I would say that it has to be because of Archie.  That man is everything that a person hopes for in a partner, and in a friend.

This book was so packed with emotion, and love that I just couldn’t get enough of it.  This book has become one of my favorite books that I have read so far this year, and it will take a lot to top this book because of the emotions that Ms. Samuels was able to pack into the story, and the love as well, it was just great.

I did like that we were still able to catch up with Merek and Vance as well in this book.  Their story didn’t overtake the story between Archie and Magnus by any means, but it was nice to find out what they were up too.

Overall, this is another great book in this series and I just can’t wait to start reading book 3! 
This is the second in the series, and should be read in order.

Prince Magnus is a warrior, the best and although he was also sent to Earth he knows he will not find he’s mate and he doesn’t deserve to even if he does. Being a soldier, he has done some things that are unforgivable and feels that no mate should be saddled with someone as unwanted or as undesirable as himself. Archer, Archie, is a simple man. At a young age he came out to his father and that man beat him it an inch of his life. That beating left Archie, with brain damage with makes him learn a little slower, forget things but also makes him very sensitive to himself and the world around him. A big man by nature and carpenter by trade he is a big man, so has found men like the size but that’s all, no one wants to bother with slow, dumb, jock. This has lead him to turn into himself and his friends for company and stay away from intimate relationships.  Until he meets Magnus, One look and he knows that Magnus is his. Know he just has to convince the name he is worthily or is he convincing himself?

I think I’m still crying this book should be sold with virtual tissues. Archie is an amazing character. It’s been a long time since I’ve read a MC that has affected me that way. If I could find his hatful father, I would also… well anyway. And Magnus such guilt, such pain, the way these two heal each other and the people around them. The way these two just complement each other, and the way that everyone around Archie just falls under his spell. I know I sure did.

 It’s a great second in what appears is going to be a magical series.
 

Santuario Series Spotlight!

Police teniente Alex Rukow has spent his life trapped on Santuario, his people’s isolated home-slash-prison-island. They’ve been living in poverty under the tyrannical regime of their own elite familias for the last two-hundred years, ever since their generation ship landed on the planet and found it already populated by earlier Earth settlers, the Skanians, who banished them to the inhospitable south.

Increasingly shamed by the decisions of their ancestors, the Skanians seek to open their borders. But dissent exists on both sides, and in the midst of this explosive political situation, a dead body appears on the island.

Bengt, a Skanian investigator, is shipped to Santuario to lead the murder investigation—which, he quickly realizes, the local teniente wants nothing to do with. As far as Bengt is concerned, things can’t get worse than the brutal climate, his own memories, and a growing attraction to a partner who will barely say two words to him. But then he and Alex run afoul of the local familias, and the problems with their investigation and their budding relationship seem like nothing compared to just getting out of this whole mess alive.

Ok, so this is one book that you have to dedicate quite time to read. No TV noise, job noise, life noise in the back ground while trying to read at least the first few chapters.  Or you’ll find yourself confused and will either have to start again or you’ll give up altogether. And over all it’s a good read, so don’t give up. The premise of this is one is so unique, I think that’s one of things that’s hard to wrap our minds around, than the futuristic wording that is used.  The two MC’s are very good together, both in solving the case and in working their way through a relationship that isn’t allowed or welcomed. And the secondary characters, just sinister enough.  Over all if you enjoy a good murder, mystery with a Sci-Fi back ground. This one is for you.   
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Not all wounds are visible.
Skanian investigator Bengt fell in love with fellow policeman Alex Rukow in a week. But that was a year ago, and they’ve been apart ever since. Then Alex escapes the corrupt and destitute island nation of Santuario and comes to live with Bengt. Happy ever after . . .?

Alex’s lifelong dream of leaving Santuario has come true at last. But he finds himself adrift in a society he doesn’t understand. Worse, past nightmares come back to haunt him, and after so many years of suspicion and self-reliance, it’s harder than he imagined to trust someone else.

Bengt just wants Alex to share his comfortable life. But the more he tries to give, the more Alex pulls away. Their physical connection couldn’t be better, but Bengt can’t seem to get through to his difficult, taciturn lover outside the bedroom. Meanwhile, he has his own demons to confront—not to mention a serial killer on the loose.

Bengt and Alex must dig deep for the courage to face their pasts, but it may be too late to save their relationship or their lives.

This is book two and should be read in order. Unlike book one, Santuario, this one wasn’t as confusing. Although still a very detailed read a very involved read, with lots of secondary characters and storylines going on, not just Alex and Bengt trying to start and then save a relationship, but also solves a case and brings justice to and for some families.  As well as other people and other issues. I did find that the story did drag in places I do understand we were trying to build a foundation, but the first thirty pages detected to Alex and a welcome home party (basically) was a little much. Also in some other places it seemed a little strained.  I very much liked the fact that Alex had a hard time dealing with culture issues and that wasn’t glossed over. And that people did have predigested about “his kind” made everything seem more real.  Over all a good read, a good second story.
