This was another fun book! The Gentlemen's Agreement (Another Arranged Marriage #7) by @lisaoliverauthor.bsky.social is a tale of two princes and a commoner who find their love together among opposition and danger. Very enjoyable! #mmromance #booksky

Book cover: A scholarly-looking young man with a light beard and shoulder-length hair set on parchment on a desk with a black feather quill pen nearby.

The Lost Art of Seducing a Mage Warrior (Bk 1) by @ellie-ash.bsky.social is a cozy romantasy between the head Mage Warrior & the man he rescues from attack. Not so much action; rich in relationships, passion, & a few mysteries. Mostly set in the castle. Looking forward to reading Bk 2! #mmromance

Book Cover: Silver lettering and swirls on a brown and black bokeh background.

Always Hope (Guardian Hall #2) by @rjscott.bsky.social is an emotional read about a wounded vet who is the sole survivor of an IED explosion. At a Chicago home for recovering vets, he meets a doctor. Over months, friendship becomes attraction, healing, & love. Beautiful romance! #mmromance #booksky

Book cover: Two men looking affectionately in each other's eyes.

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · 11d

Oh, I didn't know about you or this series. It looks really good! I'm going to read Bk 1 and give it a try.

I enjoyed reading Don't Judge a Prince by His Undergarments (Another Arranged Marriage #2) by @lisaoliverauthor.bsky.social. A prince who likes wearing frilly undergarments meets a warrior king. It's extreme like at first sight; a marriage contract soon follows. Fun series! #mmromance #booksky

Book cover: Pensive man wearing a dark jacket w/sky and clouds in background.

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · 18d

I can't wait to read this one! Looks so good!

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · 18d

I've been skipping around the series a bit. I did love The Pirate's Treasure, but today I read Don't Judge a Prince by His Undergarment. So fun! Yesterday, I bought the last three books, so I'm set!

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · 20d

I loved reading On the Land, We Shoot Straight by @sashaavice.bsky.social. This #mmromance ranch western set in a 1981 rural area, is rich in detail & character dev. Here, men don't talk about feelings and "help each other out". A traumatized man works for a rancher & they slowly discover love.

Book cover: Two men on horseback, in silhouette, look at animals grazing in a pasture with a beautiful sky in purples, pinks, and yellows.

Brett and Rowdy by @batortuga.bsky.social is a fun, feel-good second-chance #mmromance between former HS lovers who meet again at their reunion. Sparks rekindle, but one lives on the east coast and the other owns a New Mexico ranch. Of course, they get their HEA. Positive blind rep. #booksky

Book cover: Attractive smaller bearded man with open shirt, nice handmade jewelry, holding a cowboy hat with one hand on his head.

Each book is a stand-alone, but read the entire series for maximum enjoyment.

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · 24d

Rio (Redcars Bk 3) by @rjscott.bsky.social is so enjoyable! Rio is an ex-con, street-fighter, mechanic w/anger issues. Lyric is a hacker whose AI became sentient & is putting out kill contracts on him. Dark-romance; high-emotions; action; danger; great HEA. Can't wait for Bk 4! #mmromance #booksky

Book cover: Attractive, dark-haired bearded man looking pensively ahead.

Happy birthday! How cool is that! Handmade gifts like these are the best - priceless!

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · 26d

I loved A Marriage of Necessity (Another Arranged Marriage #5) by @lisaoliverauthor.bsky.social. The entire series is great! Prince Jasper has been (off-pg) kidnapped, abused, & had his eye removed. Traumatized & in danger, his mother arranges a marriage in name w/Prince Avalon. #mmromance #booksky

Book cover: Bearded, serious man dressed in uniform holds a candle in front of him.

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · 26d

I have been reading the series and I skipped over this one, thinking it might be a bit too light-hearted, but then I read the blurb again and just downloaded it. It does sound like a fun book to read!

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · 27d

This and Every Life is downloaded on my Kindle & I'll be reading soon. I only know what the blurb says, but it sounds like you're saying it is a reincarnation story. Is it like the movie Cloud Atlas? I liked that, but have to set myself up for it mentally in a romance story.

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · 29d

Keep going! I know I'm going to be reading it!

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · 29d

It was an enjoyable evening, reading the short story A Heaven to Reach For by @rcooper.bsky.social. A rough older guard and an innocent mage lack the confidence to reveal their feelings for each other. On the festival day of Ara, it's time to tell all. Slow burn. Sweet ending. #mmromance #booksky

Book cover: Blue night sky with a field of blue flowers.

I loved reading Collision of Winters (Hillcroft #4) by @caradeewrites.bsky.social. Two guys who finally get together, pseudo-brothers, daddy kink, primal play, 18 yr age gap. Action, security agency, danger, family/friends, forever love. The entire series is so good! #mmromance #booksky

Book cover: Attractive young man looking pensively to his right.

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · Sep 26

I spent a lovely bit of time today reading The Naiad's Lover by @isabelmurray.bsky.social. A short story from the Immortal Bonds world, it focuses on Erik's swim lessons-an effort to join Sayan in traveling his huge lake. Their love is profound and beautiful. Highly recommended! #mmromance #booksky

Book cover: An attractive man, seen from the back, looking down while blue waves swirl around him.

I enjoyed Tempting Frey (Bears of Beauville #2) by @roehorvat.bsky.social. Light-hearted, high-heat, shifter #omegaverse fun. Oliver, an omega, made a play for his dad's best friend the day he turned 18. Alpha Frey turned his down so he could go to college. Now, Oliver is back! #mmromance #booksky

Book cover: Attractive young man with reddish blond hair looks pensive with his hand on his chin. Mountains and trees in background.

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · Sep 13

Yes! So good!!

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · Sep 11

@fearnehill.bsky.social has come up with another series that I know I'm going to love! Maybe (Mis-shapes #1) is a story of two brothers (no blood relation) who reconnect as adults. One is poor & disowned; the other the troubled golden child. Friends & family; pulls heartstrings #mmromance #booksky

Book cover: Goth, long-haired beautiful man in white t-shirt, black jacket, holding a guitar

I can't think of any particular triggers. The world-building (or universe-building) is particularly detailed with a lot of "scientific" and biological adaptations & how the species interact/breed. Character development is good and it doesn't feel technical. The characters are rather randy. 😜

Lisa P @leperez333.bsky.social · Sep 6

I greatly enjoyed The First Omega Made (Scales & Tales Bk 2) by @liloquie.bsky.social. Great sci-fi world-building with unique storytelling, mating, and love between the ship's doctor & crewman. Lizard-people hybreeds, hatchlings, high heat, genetics. Rd bk 1 for max fun. #mmromance #SFR #booksky

Book cover: Attractive lizard alien w/white hair holding marble statue bust w/glowing blue eyes; planet below
