Beautiful Boy by Grace R Duncan
Amazon –> http://bit.ly/1NHNuLj
Review –> http://bit.ly/1ladUOxSynopsis
Malcolm Tate hung up his flogger when his submissive sought out another Dom and landed in the hands of a serial killer. Convinced his lack of dominance sent his sub away, Mal has spent two years blaming himself for what happened. But when his best friend finally convinces him to go back to the local dungeon, Mal’s grateful. Especially when he wins beautiful, submissive, firmly closeted Kyle Bingham in a charity slave auction.
College grad Kyle hasn’t earned enough to move out of the loft his conservative, homophobic parents bought, much less to buy any of the other things still in their name. When he’s won at auction by the hot, amazing Mal, he’s shocked that anyone would want him. No one else seemed to—not his parents, his former Doms, or any of his disastrous dates.
But Mal does want him and Kyle lets his guard down, only to be outed to his parents. With his world crashing down, he must find a way to trust Mal—and their developing relationship—or risk losing everything.

At his best friend’s urging, he agrees to a trip to Atlantic City to clear his head.

Well-meaning friends refuse to let Zach and Sam hide from each other, forcing them to realize their weekend was much more than a one-night stand. Before that can happen, Zach must come to terms with his past and stand up for his own independence, while Sam has to learn to take a chance and believe in himself and people again. All bets are off when dreams become reality, and forever doesn’t seem to be long enough.

When talking fails, it’s time to break out the big guns.
Bend or Break, Book 5
Five years ago, Tom Worthington busted his ass to overcome the fear and paranoia that led him to withdraw from the world and nearly lose his boyfriend. He never thought he’d find himself right back there, shutting Reese out, keeping secrets again.
Reese Anders is ready to try anything to get Tom to talk: if he can’t seduce his boyfriend with food, he’ll get Tom to open up in bed. But even Tom’s confession that his dad is getting out of prison soon doesn’t clear the air between them. And as the holidays approach, intensive mentoring from a new British boss creates more distractions, until Reese is keeping secrets of his own.
At a company Christmas party, it only takes Tom one look at Reese’s new boss to figure out how much danger their relationship is in. But he’s not about to let the connection that started all those years ago at Carlisle come to an end. It’s time to deal with their problems like adults. Face to face. Or back to front. Starting in the bedroom.
Warning: This book contains two adorable guys with way too many secrets, conciliatory rigatoni, a bedroom lesson on the power of multitasking, and indisputable evidence on what makes the perfect holiday HEA.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance.
Beautiful Boy by Grace R Duncan is one of many I'd love to own
ReplyDeleteChoices, choices... So difficult! I guess Humbug by Joanna Chambers as I love everything she writes....
ReplyDeleteI agree. It is very hard to choose. But I really like Josh Lanyon, so Jefferson Blythe, Esquire it is.
ReplyDeleteSo many good read I don't know what to choose...
ReplyDeleteBetting on Forever by Felice Stevens
ReplyDeleteAnother fantastic choice of books. I've just finished reading the first book in the series by Felice Stevens which was beautiful and emotional and I loved it so I think I'd most love to read the next one - 'Betting on Forever' by Felice Stevens. :D
ReplyDeleteI also love Amy Jo Cousin's series so would love to read the follow up 'Real World'... or Y Negative by Kelly Haworth sound like it could be a great read.
So tough to choose again! :D
Great stuff!

Pent Up for me this week.
ReplyDeleteI think Something Like a Love Song and The Winter Spirit are the next ones I'm excited about. I have Pent Up and Sharing a Pond already. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteSo many good ones this week. I think Y-Negative is the most intriguing but Pent Up runs a close 2nd.
ReplyDeletePent Up by Damon Suede
ReplyDeleteThis is a great week for new releases. I have read the Keira Andrews book and it is fabulous. I am excited about the books from Damon Suede, Josh Lanyon, Amy Jo Cousins, Indra Vaughn, Joanna Chambers, Felice Stevens, Jay Northcote and Kelly Haworth.
ReplyDeleteI put a bunch of these on my TBR list, but my choice this week would be Betting on Forever!
ReplyDeletethis week would be One Step Too Close by K.A. Merikan
ReplyDeleteMaybe Y Negative or Prickly By Nature, but there are a lot of Christmas books that sound good.
ReplyDeleteI've already read the new Josh Lanyon book, Jefferson Blythe...loved it.
PENT UP, IF ONLY IN MY DREAMS or PRICKLY BY NATURE
