His UnEGGsalted Omega by Lorelei M. Hart and Colbie Dunbar was a delight to read. 95% of the book is happy, happy, happy which was quite refreshing. To be honest, there really isn’t that much difference between an MF, MM, or FF romance except for the gender of the main characters. Ultimately, it doesn’t really matter, especially if the society the author created accepts that kind of pairing. In this world created by the authors, MM or MF pairings are commonplace.
I’m not new to reading MM stories but I must confess I was puzzled about the mechanics of male pregnancy. For the omega to be able to get pregnant that would assume that he has the reproductive organs to match, but does that mean that his anal canal is somehow connected to a uterus? Also, in this story, after the babies are born they latch to feed. Latch on what? Does that imply that Aldo had mammary glands that produced milk?
If the intention is for the story to be an MM romance, why would female physical characteristics be imposed on the omegas?
The story establishes some things, though. First, it is the omega partner who gets pregnant. Second, in mixed mating, there is no way to tell what kind of baby/babies will be born and how. Since Kirin is a dragon and Aldo is a chipmunk will they have dragon babies or chipmunk babies? Will they be hybrids of both? Will they be chipmunks that will come out of dragon eggs?
There are some passages that felt overexplained but if you skip over them it’s okay. There are also misused words or two in some sections, but nothing a copy editor who will actually read the whole story cannot easily fix.
Overall, His UnEGGsalted Omega by Lorelei M. Hart and Colbie Dunbar is a feel-good story. You can find this book on Amazon for 4.99 on Jan. 9, 2023, or for free with Kindle Unlimited.
I enjoyed it so much that I looked up the first book and will be reading it soon just so that I get to read about the romance of Abel and Cedric.
Daddy’s Next Door by Rebel Bloom is AMAZING! OMG, this book is fantastic! Such a page-turner, I couldn’t put it down. The age gap didn’t bother me as I know quite a few luscious silver foxes. These guys are in their late 40s so that isn’t even really old yet … they’re just old enough to have adult children.
Even as things developed quickly between them, I felt it was organic and not forced, which made it great. I loved how Barrett, Dominic, and Holden have such different personalities, and each one is able to bring something different to the relationship.
I loved how they were all in early in the story so there wasn’t much conflict amongst them. The way Rebel Bloom handles emotional scenes is just perfect! The most troubling thing that plagued Sugar (or SJ as most people would call her) for most of the book was the fact that Barrett is her best friend Sam’s father.
If I could give this book more than 5 stars, I would! Daddy’s Next Door by Rebel Bloom is available on January 1, 2023, on Amazon for 2.99 but free with a Kindle Unlimited account.
If you’ve ever read the story about the Ugly Duckling, that is the transformation that happened to Harper in Christmas with my Best Friend’s Brothers by Kai Lesy. From a geeky, freckled girl she blossomed into a curvaceous young woman.
Ever since Harper and her best friend Kat were little girls, they felt bullied by Kat’s identical triplet brothers Jackson, Aiden, and Nathan. They were surprised when they were told this since to the three they were just ribbing their little sis and her friend … they were just joking/kidding around and never realized they were being hurtful already. This makes me wonder if it can still be called bullying if the bully is unaware that they are doing it.
Harper just got out of a bad relationship and decided to spend the holiday with Kat and her family at Chamonix in France. Harper is anything but rich while Kat and her family are the exact opposite so the opportunity to spend Christmas in France was a dream come true for Harper. It was also a chance to hopefully heal her broken heart.
Things get complicated when her attraction to the triplets is reciprocated and each one decides to bring it a step further. They’ve never shared before but there was no awkwardness the first time they did so with Harper.
There is also the shadow of a secret involving their father’s indiscretions in the past that ruined his marriage and highly affected his children, especially Jackson.
Christmas with my Best Friend’s Brothers by Kai Lesy is a feel-good story with a HEA. You can find it on Amazon for 2.99 or free with Kindle Unlimited.
When I picked up Snow and the Seven Men by Nicole Casey on KU it was out of curiosity about how the parallelisms with the fairytale will be executed. Snow White became Sasha Snow, the beautiful and smart lead character of the story. The Evil Queen became Amanda Queenie, the malevolent boss lady who hates Sasha Snow for no apparent reason. The huntsman became Hunter, the handsome and friendly co-worker.
The 7 dwarves became the 7 drillers of Seven Drawers Inc. Dan (Doc), Graham (Grumpy), Bash (Bashful), Harry (Happy), Seth (Sleepy), Jim, and Stevie. I think Stevie is supposed to be Dopey but there is nothing Sneezy about Jim. The personality matches are not exact but close enough to be recognizable. Dan is a medic, Graham is Mr. Doom and Gloom, Bash is shy, and Seth is always sleeping or asleep. This is no Prince Charming in this story because that role went to the 7 men.
The seven are unattached and it is for a curious reason … they have a pact that they will only be involved with a woman if she is willing to be involved with ALL of them at the same time. For most women, this would be difficult to swallow (pun intended). So when they come home to find an unconscious and obviously injured woman asleep in their bedroom you can just imagine their mixed emotions.
In real life, reverse harems are not socially acceptable in most societies so it is surprising how quickly Sasha embraced the thought of being with them. But then, I suppose the fact that she finds herself sexually drawn to all of them did not make that decision difficult.
It’s not all butterflies and rainbows for Sasha Snow. This story has its share of intrigue, conflict, and heightened sexual tension. “The seduction of Sasha” was especially fun, especially the Magic Mike routine. fans self
I found this story enjoyable and loved the HEA. I have no regrets about picking up this book. Snow and the Seven Men by Nicole Casey is on Amazon for 3.99 but free with a Kindle Unlimited subscription.
Alpha Wolf’s Fated Mate by Anika Skye is better than the other story of hers that I’ve read but still leaves me wanting more. It feels incomplete and the characters’ backstories aren’t fleshed out. As I am reading I have more questions than answers. This writing style makes sense if this book is part of a series but it still means that a lot more thought should be put into the back story of each character rather than the hodgepodge of information this book gives us.
The attempt at a non-linear story that gives Dimitri’s POV is a good attack but was clumsily executed. Even the POV of Helen always seems to be “wondering”. Once again, we have our lead female running away from an abusive relationship. This is the second story I’ve read that had that kind of backstory for the lead female but does not give enough information to make that factoid relevant.
And then a surprise factoid is given that is not substantiated in the story. Aside from the taste/smell of her blood, there are no other manifestations so … what is that?
While this book is better than the last one, it still needs a lot more work before it should be published.
Alpha Wolf’s Fated Mate by Anika Skye is on Amazon and can be purchased in Kindle format for 0.99 or you can read it with a KU account. I would recommend the latter if you are just curious about this.
