Review: Frat Wars: Master of Mayhem by Saxon James (Frat Wars #2)


Note: An advance reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author via Foreword PR & Marketing.

Now that readers of the Frat Wars series know who between Sigma Beta Psi and Rho Kappa Tau won as King of Thieves, Saxon James is letting the competitive spirit reign supreme as Sigma House decides who the Master of Mayhem will be. And yes, Master of Mayhem is the title of book two in the series, and it's exceeded all my lofty expectations. If you've read the series starter, King of Thieves, then Robert Harrows--aka Robbie--is most certainly not a stranger to you. He's paired with Brandon Blakely. Yep, we've got Sigma's social chair (Robbie) and their risk manager (Brandon) as the main characters, and while these two may seem to be at odds when it comes to all the partying and pranking they and their brothers get into, when they share that first kiss? Zing! It's unexpected chemistry. They've always been straight, but curiosity may just get the better of both of them. It's Robbie and Brandon's senior year and mayhem is a given, but to what extent?

I had a feeling Robbie was going to steal my heart, right alongside Brandon's! Yeah, the guy could be the poster child for mischief and mayhem, but there was way more to him than that. And while Brandon may have been a stickler for keeping things safe and within reason, but who'd have thought he'd have a wild side to him, one that was willing to take a risk or two with the right incentive? Robbie has seemed protective of Brandon ever since the whole glitter incident that led to the latter's asthma attack in the first book, and when he goes all in, it's a no-holds-barred thing. But again, this is the Rob-Dog we're talking about here, and while his fashion sense may have been questionable, his love and loyalty to those who mattered most was admirable. And Brandy, erm, Brando, umm, Brandon may not have been wholly prepared to manage the ultimate risk of falling for Robbie, but boy, was it worth it! Gah! I loved these two and their story made me laugh and swoon. Saxon James has delivered yet another witty and winsome romance, and I can't wait to see what awaits in the final Frat Wars book. Five stars for Master of Mayhem.

Release Blitz: Saved by Hazel James

Saved (Battles #2) by Hazel James Release Date: June 21, 2018 About Saved Leilani Moretti Life is out to get me.  Humvee accident that took my right hand? Strike one.  Cancer three years later that stole my breasts and hair? Strike two.  An overbearing mother who seems to think I’m twelve, not twenty-seven?  Yeah, I’m out of there.  I thought moving to Oklahoma would give me a fresh start. I hoped life would finally cut me some damn slack. But between the inept people at the VA hospital and a boss who’s hell-bent on fixing me, I just want to be left alone. Haven’t I been through enough already? Clay Prescott Joining the Army and deploying to Afghanistan? Hard. Kicking an alcohol addiction and starting a business combining fitness and mental health? Harder. Worth it? Hell yes.  Battles, my gym, has been so successful that I hired a new employee—a veteran herself—to help me open a second location. And that’s when it all goes to hell. Everything

Release Blitz: Blue Skies by Marie Sinclair

Blue Skies (Blue Skies #1) by Marie Sinclair Release Date: October 11, 2023 About Blue Skies Greg loves his job as a flight attendant. If only his love life could make him as happy, he’d be all set. Asexual and HIV-positive, Greg has had a series of untrustworthy boyfriends who saw him as a challenge or told him they could accept his sexuality and status. Until they couldn’t. Still reeling from his latest breakup, Greg’s romantic heart beats a little faster when he meets Holden at a club, even though his brain whispers caution. For Holden, relationships are something he can’t afford. He’s been in the closet his entire adult life because it could cost him his job if anyone finds out he’s gay. At forty-eight, hook-ups, one night stands, and quickies in a bathroom are as good as it gets for him. It’s all he’s looking for when he goes to Neon. Instead, he finds Greg. Drawn to each other from the start, the two experience a bit of a bumpy take-off. But then Holden ends up on Greg

Review: The Room Mate by Kendall Ryan (Roommates #1)

Note: This ARC was provided by the author via InkSlinger PR in exchange for an honest review. I do believe I've found myself a new book boyfriend to drool, erm, swoon over in Cannon Roth, male main character in bestselling author Kendall Ryan's Roommates series starter, The Room Mate . This had a familiar romance trope--falling-for-your-best-friend's-sibling--and yet I didn't find it boring or tiresome in any way. This has both heart and heat as well as lighthearted humor along with a bit of heart-tugging angst and it's headlined by a couple of main characters that I was totally smitten with from the moment Paige got a pretty good idea of just how much her best friend's younger brother Cannon had grown up from the nerdy boy who followed them around like a puppy when they were kids. Bonus points for Paige being older and for the four-legged, furball named Enchilada.  When twenty-eight-year-old Paige took the call from her best friend asking if her yo
