Jenika Snow

Synopsis:

Being a bobcat shifter in a pack full of wolves, and gay on top of that, made Xavier feel as though he doesn't belong. To make matters worse he wants the future alpha of the pack, Arsen. But Arsen is arranged to marry a female wolf. Xav didn't think Arsen was gay, but that all changes when they find each other alone, and realize they are mates.

Arsen is next in line to lead his pack, and is supposed to be mated to a female, but only desires Xav, the bobcat shifter that keeps to himself. One night at a party feral cravings ignite in both of them. Arsen realizes Xavier is his, and will not let anyone or anything stand in his way of claiming him. But not everyone is happy with the future alpha being mated to a bobcat, or a male at that.

I personally LOVE Jenika Snow!!  Have read many of her books, but she has made a move to the dark side  (ManLove) I could not wait to read this book.  This woman knows she can write erotica but damn can she write M/M!!!!  This story is HAWT,  2 shifter Alpha Males, one a wolf and the other a bobcat.  The story is steamy and the shifters are dreamy.  Really enjoyed the story line and the characters.

I give Jenika 4 ★★★★’s

You Can See Me Cover Reveal by A.E. Via and GIVEAWAY!

  

World renowned chef, Prescott Vaughan was at the height of his career. Right before he's to leave for Paris to work alongside his idol, a horrific car accident leaves him completely blind.

His female fiancé leaves him in a state of desperation and depression. He pines for love, companionship, and so happens to find it in the form of his very sexy neighbor. Sexy male neighbor, Dr. Rickson 'Ric' Edwards.

Prescott's not gay - at least he never considered himself gay - until Ric saves him from a date, gone terribly wrong. The two neighbors hit it off quickly and waste no time exploring and learning each other. Things are great until Ric begins to have his doubts about meeting Prescott's many wants.

When Ric insist he and Prescott take a breather, Pres finds himself lonely and miserable again. Enter, male escort and aspiring chef, Blair McKenzie to fill the void.

In the meantime, Ric works on his issues that prohibit him from displaying the love he knows he has for Prescott. When Ric is finally ready and returns to claim Prescott he's not sure that Pres can let go of the sexy, southern, hotness that is Blair McKenzie. After Ric has his own personal encounter with the sinfully sexy man, he can't help but become entranced and crave more as well.

Pres soon realizes that there's no need to choose between his two men, because when all three of them finally come together - grab a cold drink - because the heat is going to go all the way up!

​ This is not your typical gay ménage romance. Everyone is not happy, skipping along, and loving life. These men are at each other’s throats. They live completely separate lives; fuss, cuss, and fight until they all realize exactly what the problem is...too damn much sexual tension

I give this book 4 Lip Licking Stars!!!!

Well, I had another cherry popped!!

This one for reading You Can See Me by A E Via, which is about three – yes, THREE – hot guys in a relationship.

But first, we get to meet Prescott. Some things happen and his life changes drastically. But several years later, he becomes a famous food critique.

I am trying to keep this spoiler free, bear with me!

Prescott ‘Pres’ was straight and in a so-called relationship with a woman when he meets his neighbor, Ric, a doctor. Who’s gay. And big. And gorgeous. Long-ish disheveled hair. Mmmm. 

Again, things happen, they're together then they're not.

Time passes, Pres is miserable, but meets a hot Texan, Blair, who’s Pres’ fan and wants to become a Chef, himself.

Fast forward, again things happen, which lead to Pres and Ric's reconciliation, with only one condition from Pres: a three-way relationship. 

That’s it. I’m not saying anything else. Really, you have to read this book because the scenes are HOT, both the M/M and the M/M/M; not to mention all three guys are different, you can see that difference but they’re all hot and gorgeous and smart. There’s some drama, a little bit of angst, moments of swooning, laughing and aw-ing because really, these guys can be romantic too.

My favorite quote is for sure, this one:

“(…) He [Pres] wages havoc in my heart like a storm on the sea,” Ric said quietly.

“With every storm, there’ll be sunshine after,” Pres responded.

“Storm and sunshine… so what does that make me?” Blair asked.

“The rainbow,” Ric and Pres responded in unison.

***ARC given in exchange of honest review***

I am thinking Three is never a crowd!

This story starts out with Prescott, a chef on the rise, 

and the issues he has to face from the start of the book. It seems he has so much to get through, but in the end, he gets much, much more than anyone could ever want! 

This story is full of drama and so much angst. We follow Pres through so many hardships, you kind of wonder "Will it ever end?" 

Well, fates decide it will, and then some.... You can't help but love these 3 men together. They go through so much, and deserve the sweetest ending!

 This is my first "official" m/m/m. I have read books with scenes, but not full out relationships. Though people may find this a bit "odd", I think it really works for Pres, Ric, and Blair. To be honest, i am a bit jealous ;) 

I give this book 4 sunny stars!

Who are the LaSalle sisters you ask?

Well they are none other than Iza, Cheryl, and myself.

Formed during a creative writing segment, it took on a whole new life of it's own, and now you have us, The LaSalle Sisters.

Enough about us, let's talk about the delish Tate and Logan!!

Try – verb: to make an attempt or effort to do something or in this case…someone.

Sex. Logan Mitchell loves it, and ever since he realized his raw sexual appeal at a young age, he has had no problem using it to his advantage. Men and women alike fall into his bed—after all, Logan is not one to discriminate. He lives by one motto—if something interests you, why not just take a chance and try?

And he wants to try Tate Morrison.

Just coming out of a four-year marriage with an ex-wife from hell, a relationship is the last thing on Tate’s mind. He’s starting fresh and trying to get back on his feet with a new job at an upscale bar in downtown Chicago.

The only problem is, Tate has caught the unwavering and unwelcome attention of Mr. Logan Mitchell – a regular at the bar and a man who always gets what he wants.

Night after night Tate fends off the persistent advances of the undeniably charismatic man, but after an explosive moment in the bar, all bets are off as he finds his body stirring with a different desire than his mind.

As arrogance, stubbornness and sexual tension sizzles between the two, it threatens to change the very course of their lives.

Logan doesn’t do relationships. Tate doesn’t do men. But what would happen if they both just gave in and…tried?

**********Review by**********

"Tate's eyes moved from the highball glass to the blue ones peering back at him from behind narrow, black hipster glasses. This guy screamed sophistication, from his styled black hair, slickly parted to the left, to the perfect amount of stubble. He clearly took his image seriously." 

"Well, It's nice to meet you, Logan. I'll be back when you need a refill."
""Well played. Logan watched the back of the still-nameless guy move away from him. Well fucking played.""

This book is the ultimate game of cat and mouse that most definitely surprises the cat, as well as the seriously confused and conflicted mouse ...and in the end, you're no longer sure who the cat or the mouse is.

"Tate walked to the door and reached out a palm to grip the handle. Before he turned it though, he looked at Logan And trailed his gaze over him, and then Tate did something completely out of character. He winked at him. "So? Now, I've tried."
With that, the sexy fucker walked out the door"

I love the aspect of going through everything and growing along with Tate. I felt every conflict and emotion he went through during his "transition". With Logan being who he is, it seemed to make the changeover ALMOST that much easier. I know I would never have been able to resist Logan if I were Tate.

"Then, trust me, you want it. Think about it, get comfortable with the idea, and when you're ready, I'm going to make you feel so Unfuckingbelievable that you'll wonder why you ever questioned it."

Tate and Logan have swiftly become some ultimate BBF's, with their smoldering chemistry and hot hot scenes, you just can't pull away from this book. 

"It would either be the bravest thing he'd ever done or the most stupid. He looked directly into Logan's eyes, and told him, "I always was. What about you-are you ready to try?"

Ella nailed the m/m genre. Id give this book 10 cocky smirks if I could!!

Cocky smirk ;)

**************** Review by: ******************

He’ll say yes! Of course he will!

Who’s he, you ask? Logan Mitchell. A confident and arrogant – not to mention sexy – bastard lawyer in an Armani suit and nerdy glasses. A guy whose motto is: try. Simple as that. One word, three letters. This made him into what he is now. A man-whore. One that does not shy away from trying anything with anyone. He’s batting for both teams. Man or woman, it doesn’t matter, as long as there’s an attraction and as long as the other person knows not to expect anything other than a one-nightstand from Logan. How he came to be a man that does not believe in relationships or love, for that matter, you’ll find out by reading this amazing book. No, he’s not one just for the hell of it. Oh and he’s funny too, having always a witty comeback for anything. Okay, so almost.

Who’s the man he’ll say yes to?

Tate Morrison. The straight – maybe not so straight, after all – bartender. Tate’s just got out of a nasty marriage – or at least, he’s trying to – and he’s not really interested in anyone. Women, that is. Until Logan Mitchell steps into the bar he works at and changes that. Changes his mentality and his world. I’d say Logan manages to rock the very foundation Tate has been building his life on. Coming from a religious family where many things are frowned upon, Tate is confused and refuses to believe he is attracted to the sexy lawyer. Funny and sweet, Tate is stunned by the way his body responds to Logan and everything about Logan drives him mad. But he likes him. A lot.

I loved the dynamic between them. I loved the fact that things change and shift a lot, as the story is being told. We always know what both of them are thinking and feeling and the author not only tells us, but shows us. The chemistry between these two is off the charts and I can’t remember ever reading a similar one at an M/F relationship. Let’s face it. Women whine and bitch a lot. Whether we admit or not. So, reading a book where the only female characters are Tate’s co-worker, Amelia; his sister and ex and the barista at Logan’s favorite coffee shop, is a major breather for me.

This is the first M/M novel I’ve read. 

Sure, there were others with M/M scenes but those scenes were only about the sex. This? This is so much more than just sex. It’s about one of them accepting that it doesn’t matter whom you love and have feelings for, as long as you’re happy, while the other tries to come to terms with the fact he is capable of being in a committed relationship and that love exists.

This book has it all. Humor, the best sex scenes I’ve ever read, a little bit of drama and oh-no-he-didn’t and of course, since there are female characters, also a little bit of the-bitch. Logan and Tate’s relationship is like any other relationship, except both of them are wickedly hot and they are both men. That’s it. There are no icky situations, there are no scenes that make you scrunch up your nose and say, ‘Okay, let’s skip this’ or ‘This isn’t for me’. Nope. No such thing. The moment you start reading it, you fall for Logan – the sexy bastard – and then for Tate, the sweet but surprisingly wicked bastard. You don’t want to put the book down. You most certainly don’t want to skip anything. The only thing you’ll want is to keep reading more and then when you get to the dreaded end of it, you learn that there is more to come next summer. Maybe then you’ll whine and bitch. I know I did.

Ella Frank has ruined me for M/F books and… Oh, who am I kidding? She ruined me for my other book boyfriends. Not one of the guys from my harem comes close to these two. Logan Mitchell and Tate Morrison are now on that list of BBF and they had kicked others aside, going way to the top.

You know what? Just try.    

********** Review By**********

How can I explain how I felt reading this book?  Can anyone explain spontaneous combustion?  Because that is what I felt constantly through the whole damn book.  From page 3, I was enchanted with the player Logan, instantly fell in love with one line  "Batter up! I want to play with some balls."  Ella Frank has taken a real gamble on stepping into a new genre, M/M with in my honest opinion is the best genre today.  Damn if she doesn't come up with "snake eyes", this is her best book to date IMO.  The title could not have been better named, because this book was all about trying.  It is about finding yourself, losing yourself and bettering yourself.    We meet Logan Mitchell from the start,  on an airplane "For the admission price of $543.90, was inducted into the exclusive Mile High Club, and it was worth every last penny"

So when Logan walks into his favorite after hours bar, we find that our "player" is actually bi-sexual, and when he lays eyes on the new "straight" bartender Tate Morrison it was instant #I'mgoingtotaptakeandsoon lust.  But Tate see's Logan as the player that he is and calls him out on his conquests, and Logan being the smartass talker he is responds   

        "That I like to fuck, and that I’ve slept with almost all of the women and a couple of the guys you work with.  And just so you don’t worry about them, they all thanked me afterward."  BAM I fucking love Logan!!!!!  This book is riddled with some of the best quotes and come backs that I have ever had the pleasure of reading.  Here is just a few of my 66 Kindle highlights:

        "Does every word that comes out of mouth have to do with sex?   Usually, eighty/twenty, but with     you it seems more like ninety-eight/two"

        "You’re welcome to try, but unless something’s shoved in my mouth, I have to tell you, it’s next to       impossible to ever shut me up"

        "You can look all you like-in there.  Now, invite me into your bed, Tate.  You need an invitation?  I        want one.  I want you to invite into your bed."

        "You make me want things that I’d forgotten I wanted"

        "So….what’s your truth, Logan?    I think you are."

        "Stay?  Yes

        Good, I want you to stay

        Then, I’ll stay"

***Fanning my self***,  I could go on with Ella's dialogue,  to put simply this was the hottest book I have ever read, in ANY genre.  I look forward to next summer when I can get my hands back on my "boys" in Take.  This book made me laugh, made cry, and made want the throttle Logan multiple times through out it.

I rate this book a...

Blue Moon: Too Good to be True by A.E. Via

I'll admit, it didn't grab me from the very first page, as it happens in some cases but still, when it did? It didn't let me go. Granted, I had to put it down a few times but only because it was too much. In the good way, of course.

It all starts with infamous club owner, Angel DeLucca having had enough of meaningless one-nightstands. He wants forever with the perfect guy he can't seem to find. Angel is described as the wealthy businessman, with long dark hair - courtesy of his Spanish roots - that he always keeps tied back and braided because everyone wants to touch it. Everyone envies it. I have to admit, I do to too. He's actually a pretty sensitive guy but that does not make him less of a man. He is gorgeous but unhappy.

Until a scorned almost-lover pulls the fire alarm, bringing the firefighters out to his club, thus introducing Maximus 'Max' Strong to him, a straight man who feels the pull to another man. This of course, freaks him out because he had just ended a relationship with a woman.

He can't stay away from Angel and the latter doesn't really give him a choice.

But this book isn't just about how Angel and Max fall in love. No, it's two stories in one book. Both of them happening almost at the same time.

The other hot couple is Max's very own, gay and out older brother, Ryker and Angel's Security Chief, Sebastian 'Bass' Bagetteli, who also happens to be a Dom.

Now, this part of the story, with these two, is BDSM. Not a fan of the genre but I liked this one.

Ryker has always been responsible for his younger brother. He always took care of Max. This made him secretly yearn and crave for someone to, in turn, take care of him. He wanted someone he could lose control with. Better yet, leave all the controlling to the other person. He has a nasty experience with a Dom and is scared of going through it all again.

But Bass is a gentle Dom. He's a Master Dom and the attraction is instant. Though Ryker fights it, at first - for obvious reasons - he does give in to Bass, realizing he is the perfect Dom and he is his.


But it isn't just an M/M book with these two couples. It has a little bit of angst, a whole lot of action and a heck of a lot of hot men.

And this is where I introduce to you, the Beastmasters.

They are none other than Angel's dad, Shot and his friends, brothers. Angel's overprotective uncles. My favorite of them? Hawk. He got the name because he knows all and sees us. This sometimes pisses the others off.

They are badass men who had fought alongside each other and had formed their very own family. They took in Max, naming him Ace.

I cannot wait for the second book in the series because we get teased in this one with Shot and a very sexy cop, along with Hawk and Max's best friend.

All in all, I really liked the book. It has it all. Love. Hot sex. Hot men. Action. Angst. And it's also damn funny because really, that many guys are bound to crack jokes and laugh at one another.
