Forced to grow up too fast, Liam Cavanagh, carries the burdens of responsibilities that shouldn't be his, and it's slowly destroying him.

This book has long been one of my favorite Daddy tales. I was so excited to get it as an audiobook and was not disappointed. Philip Alces has done a fantastic job of bringing Daddy Cash and his boy Liam to life.

This family is so messed up. Every person living in Dollar Voss has a secret and Merit is keeping them all. But all is not as it seems and Merit soon realizes she’s judged everyone unfairly. Loved this story and how it unraveled.

My Favourite Pups

My Favourite Pups
Reviewed: 27-12-2018
Master by Choice is the continuation of Accidental Master and what happened after that lightbulb moment Jackson had when he first got their email that kept pushing him to find out more. None of it scared him, even though it was all so new. Jackson thought his sweet pups were beautiful. So different but honest, sincere and strong as well. Cooper is the excitable pup who charges right in and Sawyer is the more reserved one. I’ve especially enjoyed this book as we saw Cooper, Sawyer and Jackson sort out how to get what they each need out of this new relationship and then how they would step out into the world together. I want more and more of these three adorable boys. So much love between them it’s hard to leave them behind.

How Can I Not Give It 5 Stars?

Joel Leslie is the most amazing narrator, and team him with the talented N.R. Walker and you’ve got a winner every time. Henry SO needed Reid in his life after being tossed aside by his partner of eight years for being fat and old. Reid believed in Henry right from the start. As his trainer, he showed Henry that he can achieve what he set out to do, get fitter and healthier and over time Henry started to believe in himself too. Henry has inspired me too.

Grant and Carter
Reviewed: 09-06-2018
Grant always seemed so gruff but he was attracted to Carter right from the start. He thought Carter looked beautiful in a sundress and didn’t hesitate to tell him how pretty he was but Carter took some convincing that Grant was serious. A great story of how opposites attract. I love the interaction of this whole family and their new found loves. Looking forward to Bryce next.

Story
Garrett was at his breaking point. There were only so many times in a week you should have to see someone you were...attracted to...infatuated with...but certainly didn’t have a crush on. Doms didn’t have those. Especially on a customer who probably wasn’t even gay, much less a sub. Business 101 - do not flirt with a client. Wyatt was losing his mind. Hiding his obsession was getting harder and harder. All he wanted to do was kneel in front of Garrett and call him Master. But the sexy insurance agent never seemed to see him.

What made the experience of listening to Garrett the most enjoyable?
I loved the way these two guys interacted with each other and their relationship progressed at a rather fast pace even though Garrett started off saying he didn't want to rush into it. The chemistry between them was super hot and I'm looking forward to hearing from the other brothers.
What other book might you compare Garrett to, and why?
This whole series is just great. A family that plays together stays together.
Any additional comments?
Wyatt had been crushing on his insurance agent Garrett for a year and things just started to get interesting. Right from their first date I could feel their chemistry as Wyatt had finally found the full time Dom he'd been looking for. Garrett loved to tease his sub by not moving too fast, but he was looking forward to having Wyatt at his feet. Wyatt very quickly found that he didn't feel weird around Garrett's family as they were all in the lifestyle.

Story
Brent had fallen for the one Dom he couldn't have. Brent's legendary bad luck when it came to men was undeniable. If there was a wanna-be Dom in a hundred miles, he found them. Calen had fallen for the one sub he couldn't have. Calen knew most considered him the seen-them-and-leave-them type of Dom, but how could he stay when he knew they wouldn't understand? When you're a Dom who doesn't match up to stereotypes, can you ever find the right submissive?

What did you like most about Brent: A M/m BDSM Romance?
I was very excited to read Brent's story after reading Garrett, which I loved. It didn't disappoint me at all.
What did you like best about this story?
Brent and Calen have known each other for years and never considered each other as a possible option. The night they pretended to be together so people would stop interrupting their conversation sent everything spiraling.
Any additional comments?
The tension build up between them was frustrating to read but a forced vacation helped calm it all down. I love BDSM stories and don't care what version is depicted. I'm no expert but these guys were hot!
