Dirty Laundry by Heidi Cullinan
Once a Brat by Kim Dare
The Square Peg by Jane Davitt and Alexa Snow
The Stableboy by Megan Derr
Turning Tricks by Anne Tenino
The Heir Apparent by Tere Michaels is a love story and a mystery steeped in cutthroat corporate politics. Set in New York City, it features the author’s usual flawless writing and likable, engaging characters. My one problem centered on the whodunit aspect of the mystery, which was telegraphed with some heavy-handed clues – to the point where I wondered at the characters’ inability to see the obvious. However, that didn’t reduce my enjoyment in everything else, including the good chemistry between the main ...more
Collusion by Eden Winters is a strong sequel to the entertaining and unusual novel Diversion, which you should read first for maximum enjoyment. First, the compelling and intricately researched plot involving prescription drug smuggling could have been ripped from the news headlines. The strength of the workplace details makes the story vivid and authentic.
Second, our heroes are strong individuals with real emotional issues who have great chemistry. The book’s comedy comes from Lucky and Bo’s good-natured struggles to get the upper hand in ...more
Chase the Ace by Clare London is an intricately plotted novella that features the irresistible theme of tracking down one’s childhood friends. Uneasily approaching his thirtieth birthday, our attractive hero Daniel attempts to chart his way out of his emotional stagnation by finding out where his long lost friends’ destinies have led them. Years ago, he and his three friends had bonded together against bullies over their newfound realization that they were gay. Now he hopes that they all have found love and ...more
Captive by Remy Jensen is a fast-paced thriller centered on Belize and the open waters off its coast. In only 18,000 words, the author gives us an unforgettable viewpoint character, a strongly appealing love interest, a twisty and exciting plot, a hot sex scene, and some scorching sexual chemistry. What stands out for me most from the story’s multiple strong points is how smart and funny the main characters are. Our hero might start out as a kidnapping victim, but he never stops ...more

Dylan, a sc rawny computer programmer struggling to survive eight years
after a global disaster in which most of the world’s population died in their sleep one night. Dylan is focused on hiding his homosexuality, which gets

procreation first in order to rebuild the human race. Finally, Dylan gets
captured by one of the wildpacks, or motorcycle gangs, that patrol the

Please welcome romance author Megan Slayer to the Cafe!
I love GLBT Month on ARe. It’s one of my favorites. Why? Not just because I write m/m romance, but because of the variety of stories. Most of my favorite authors are mm authors. It’s a diverse group of writers.
Why do I write M/M romance? I’ve always looked at romance as person A meets person B. They have some calamities, some hardships and lots of sex. Usually, they fall in love. There are some parts of ...more
