I’m over at Dear Author with a review of Naughty Wishes: Mind by Joey W. Hill. The guys get down to bizness in part 3.
I’m over at Dear Author with a review of Naughty Wishes: Heart by Joey W. Hill. Part two of Hill’s steamy friends-to-lovers serial.
I’m over at Dear Author with a review of Naughty Wishes: Body by Joey W. Hill. It’s part one of a serial, so not the complete story and no HEA here. Super hot though.
I’m over at Dear Author with a review of Break Me Down by Roni Loren. Really good Femdom novella which breaks down the hero’s personal barriers (which are more than manly pride). I’d have liked a little more at the end but otherwise, I liked it a lot.
Why I read them: A number of people have recommended these books to me – most recently Sirius from Dear Author.

What it’s about: (from Goodreads) Liam loves his life as a linguist and trader on the Rownt homeworld, but he has ignored his heart and sexual needs for years. He won’t risk letting anyone come too close because he won’t risk letting anyone see his deeply submissive nature. For him, submission comes with pain. Life burned that lesson into his soul from a young age. This fear keeps him from noticing that the Rownt trader Ondry cares for him.
Ondry may not understand humans, but he recognizes a wounded soul, and his need to protect Liam is quickly outpacing his common sense. They may have laws, culture, and incompatible genitalia in their way, but Ondry knows that he can find a way to overcome all that if he can just overcome the ghosts of Liam’s past. Only then can he take possession of a man he has grown to love.
What worked for me (and what didn’t): This first book is a lot shorter than the other two in the series (so far – dare I hope for another?), at less than a hundred pages (the second book is the longest and the third is in between). I was impressed with the world building Gala was able to portray in a short word count and fascinated by the Rownt and the way they think. I love the way she used the Rownt to examine some things about people which are weird or don’t make sense and, seeing these things from an outsider point of view was deeply interesting. In particular, the way Dominance and submission is portrayed here is unique and quite charming.
