While I started this amazing series with the third book, this incredibly sweet, heartwarming romance is exactly the way to fall into this universe and found family.
Itās a slow burn, first love, first time romance that captures the essence of all that confusing, unsettling overwhelming feelings of true love . Set on a ranch where you can almost smell the wild fragrances coming through the tall meadow grasses, feel the heat pouring down as the men ride and go through their chores, itās an old fashioned slowed down day in a modern world story. One to savor along with the very sweet, almost innocent nature of the relationship thatās beginning to form between Leland and Jamie.
The ranch, itās full time staff which is also a family, itās guests comes across as a real place. From the dining hall to the dusty tack room to the fire pit where the grasses need to be cut back for safety purposes, itās described so clearly, easily such a deep integral part of the people there that it becomes a part of your heart too.
And as a worn, torn Jamie finds himself deposited at the ranch uncertain and almost beaten, you just hope heās finally found home. Which he has.
Jamie is all young vulnerability, openness, and hope waiting for someone to want him. Heās an amazing character and you love him immediately. As the strait laced Leland does, even if heās not sure what to make of his own feelings.
Leland we also understand and adore, in a totally different way. They gently spark, gaze, and as two men whoāve never had relationships, stumble towards each other.
How I love this and them.
Like sitting on that veranda in the summerās evening, sipping root beer, listening to the owls call and holding hands under the blankets.
Sighing now. Perfection.
Iām so in love with this series. On to book two.

Buy The Foreman and the Drifter to fall deeply and forever today with the first book in the new Farthingdale Ranch Series
Once again I started a series in the he middle but I donāt think it will make much of a difference here. Itās easy to understand the couples and Iāll be going back to pick up on each of their individual romances after this one.
Why? Because I so thoroughly enjoyed my stay on the Farthingdale Ranch and felt as though Iād actually been there , walking the grounds, riding the trails and being a part of that found family.
This story was so moving. Both men experienced such growth, one in particular had undergone such a bad relationship that heād been badly damaged emotionally and that had resulted in Erectile Dysfunction, a subject matter treated here gently, lovingly, and focusing towards healing the man . It was amazing.
Interwoven with recovery was a remarkable Father/daughter relationship. You canāt help but love Bea. She was a force of nature.
The core is Clay and Austin finding a way towards a healthy, happy HEA ⦠a true family. Itās a slow tentative path but one made through communication and adjustments. And a respect for each other.
What a great story and remarkable universe. Great characters, marvelous setting, moving plot lines. Thereās three more stories to come and two prior books. Oh what joy!
I love it when I fall in love with a series! I believe you will too.
Head over to the Farthingdale Ranch and grab up all the books!
Synopsis:
“If Austin has forgotten what love is, maybe Clay can show him the way.”
Happy-go-lucky Clay keeps busy with hookups at the local bar after working hard at the ranch. Those hookups used to be fun, but now they leave him empty.
Austin is reeling after a difficult divorce. His wife took everything, including full custody of his daughter, Bea, who is only nine.
Austin doesnāt know where his life is headed, but at least heās got a roof over his head, and a new job as accountant at Farthingdale Ranch.
The job is exactly the kind of work he loves. The only problem is heās distracted by Clay, who is gay. Austin is straight. Thereās no way this can work.
A gay M/M cowboy romance with age gap, hurt/comfort, opposites attract, single dad, out for you, midnight rendezvous, friendship between men. A little sweet, a little steamy, with a guaranteed HEA.

Lane Hayes continues her Out of series for couple Gabe and Derek post college with two lovely, sweet short stories.
We meet again Hayesā great characters, in tightly plotted storylines filled with romance and hope for their dreams, individually and as a couple.
We follow them through each manās future plans, one for a restaurant and one for an Olympic spot, then to a wonderful romantic conclusion.
Both compliment each other and leave the reader happy and satisfied for the couple and with the stories.
What a lovely way to spend a couple of hours.
Lighthearted, humorous, romantic and sweet. I loved it and recommend both. And Hayes Out of series. Check them all out.
Synopsis:Out for the Holidays
A Dream Come Trueā¦
Derek-
This is it! Iām finally opening my own bistro. Iāve spent the last two years getting ready for this moment. I canāt decide if the holidays are the perfect time to begin a new venture, but Iām excited. It would be nice if my family were on board too.
Gabe-
I play water polo. I donāt know anything about the restaurant business, but I want to make sure Derekās grand opening goes according to plan. Iāll rally our friends, send out invites, and yeahā¦Iāll even deal with his mother. Heās my number one person and Iāll do whatever it takes to be sure weāre out for the holidays.
Out for the Holidays is a low-angst MM romance featuring Derek and Gabe from Out in the Deepā¦and a host of friends from the Out in College books!
Out for Gold
Chance of a Lifetimeā¦
Gabe-
Winning a spot on the Olympic water polo team is my lifelong goal and guess what?…I made it! Of course, nothing goes smoothly. This is a bad time for a shoulder injury and an even worse time for my dad to show up out of the blue. I might be doomed.
Derek-
Family isnāt easy. Trust me, I know. But in my experience, ignoring obvious issues only makes them more challenging in the long run. I canāt solve Gabeās problems with his dad, but Iāll help if I can. Win or lose, my man is going out for gold.
Out of Gold is a low-angst MM romance featuring Derek and Gabe from Out in the Deep in a full-circle quest for the ultimate prizeā¦love.
*OUT FOR THE HOLIDAYS was originally featured in the holiday collection, Gifts for the Season. Since the anthology is no longer available, I wanted to publish it on my own and add new content. OUT FOR GOLD is a brand-new novella that really brings the whole story full-circle. Both shorts feature Derek and Gabe from Out in the Deep.
I just adore this series! After all, how often Is it that I get a 18 book series written by multiple authors that shows no signs of stopping, remains energetic and fresh from couple to couple, plot to plot, and has given me new authors to follow!
Exciting, right?
The main elements remain the bar/bookstore thatās Vino and Veritas, the beautiful town of Burlington, Vermont, the surrounding areas such as smaller villages, farms and woods. From that great foundation, we continually meet and/or revisit the many citizens (established and newly arrived) that intertwine their lives and loves.
Unforgettableās couple is comprised of two men weāve met before.
Thereās Oz Walker, one of the staff at Vino side of V&V. Heās been mentioned fairly often in the other stories. Doesnāt matter the authors, many of these couples and characters make appearances throughput the entire series.
So yes, we superficially know Oz and now get to meet the man in-depth as well as his family. All of them and they rock!
Reeve Hale, temporally āpassing throughā Burlington for the summer is roommates with one of my fav people. Thatās the effervescent Davey Murphy from Undone #17, here busy, supportive and looking for love. While itās great to get a peak at āShowgirlā, the oh so delightful , duty minded adorable Reeve is a real great addicting character.
Add a marvelous fake boyfriend trope between these two and you have a story that just takes off and soars on a flight of romance, sexy romps, some angst, and a ton of heartwarming moments.
Just a heads over heels love fest that you will find so much fun to read. Well written, dialogue that feels real and hits the heart, and yes, filled with outstanding characters, both new and from the other series books.
Oz Walker and Reeve Hale are a great couple and make for a entertaining joyful romance. Add this one to your TBR pile. I definitely recommend it.
See the synopsis and entire series list below as well as the buying link from Goodreads.
Synopsis: One night with Reeve Hale wasnāt enough. I knew it when I kissed him, I knew it when I slept with him, and I was certain of it when I walked out of his motel room the very next day.
So when the shy, gorgeous man is introduced as our newest employee at Vino and Veritas, I canāt help but conjure up all the ridiculous ways to convince him to repeat that unforgettable night. Like asking him to be my fake boyfriend at my sisterās upcoming wedding.
Only, I didnāt expect him to say yes.
Playing pretend shouldnāt feel this real. Especially when Reeve is planning on leaving Vermont after the summer.
We agreed to one night. We negotiated a fake relationship. But Iām the one who broke our terms. I wasnāt supposed to fall in love and he was never supposed to be so unforgettable
I have been looking forward to this book and series since itās origin story, A Brush of Blue, in her Colors of Love series. Itās there that we met Landon Reese, goalie/hockey player and his future husband, bandleader Montrell Pittman. And at the end they are facing a great future together, full of new journeys, including one that sees both at Landonās large spread in Wyoming, the Prairie Smoke Ranch.
It was such an amazing story and that couple was so fascinating and diverse that I couldnāt wait to see how their lives continued and what happened nextā¦.on that ranch.
We get that here, although not as much as I had hoped to see of Landon and Martell. Here, we run across Landon most often as the carryover character. He owns the ranch after all. Of the complex , musical cross dressing Martell, we catch just glimpses.
No the focus of this novel is the Prairie Smoke ranch foreman, Nate Pearson and Dr. Bishop Haney, associate professor of Paleontology at UWW. Itās their love story, with heavy overlay plot lines of theft, bigotry, feuding ranches, rustling and more.
And that mixture of elements and storylines is both a blessing and , well not a curse then definitely a frustrating point, reader and review wise, about this novel.
Writing a series, authors can format their stories in various ways. Thereās a main foundation or universe, here itās the Prairie Smoke Ranch and itās location near the Tetons as well as surrounding communities, town and Native tribes.
Locey has established a great setting and niche community here. We have the larger towns and citizens referenced and secondary characters from there who make appearances.Thereās the smaller found family the author is slowly creating at the ranch itself thatās a combination of owners, ranch hands, and support staff. New people already situated or are soon to arrive within this group are those whoās relationships will be launched in the forthcoming books.
As I said, this series looks to follow the pattern of individual romances emerging from the ranch family that is growing before us on the page instead of following through on the couple already presented.
From foundation universe and main couple romance, then a author can layer on more themes or plots that get threaded through the narrative to further tie books and series together.
For me this has always been a somewhat tricky format to balance and have each tale remain satisfying in and of itself while moving the series objectives forward.
As a reader, I want to come to the end of each novel I read and feel happy (if itās that sort of fiction) as well as satisfied that some if not most of the plot lines raised have been concluded , even if itās not the arc storyline . Thatās more so the case because itās a anticipated smaller percentage in novels from a series because yes, you allow for a certain number of storylines to carryover into the next novel. I still emotionally need closure on something! Please donāt leave me with more questions then answers or spending hours wondering why I didnāt even connect 100 percent to our couple. More on that.
When that happens. Even if thereās no real cliffhanger (something I abhor in a series), having multiple major elements left dangling at the end , well frustrating is a nice way to put it. Then I start to look at every aspect of the story with askance.
That includes what seems to be a happy, loving main couple . Here after some thought, even their romance here feels just as unfinished as everything else. Definitely a HFN book. An air of uncertainty hangs ever present over all elements.
For me that perfectly frames out how Dawnās Desire reads and comes across at the end. I done nothing but think about this story and why I just felt unsettled and yup, frustrated by the end.
Letās tackle the romance first of all.
Itās very well written, especially when creating and defining the men who become lovers in this HFN story.
Nate has a tragic history which is easy to emphasize with and feel a part of this manās life story. I connected with Nate. And even now he stands out so clearly in my head. I know this man.
Bishop, all energized, nerdy yet capable, messy man bun and long limbs, is equally amazing and relatable. From his California great looks to his positive outlook, Bishop feels as real as Nate.
Their chemistry is off the charts hot and I can even believe they love each other at the end.
The author did such a thorough, great job in giving both men not only a layered history but each has an emotional richness to them. Nate speaks hauntingly and with deep conviction of his connection to the wide spaces of Wyoming and his almost sacred bonding to the land. As he spoke at times during the story of his need and emotional ties there , it was so moving and natural.
Bishop too has equally meaningful layers to him. Not surprisingly, these strong ties run from his joy and passion for paleontology . But on the same level as Nateās great need and love for the land surrounding the Tetons is Bishop ās innermost connection to the ocean, itās waters , smells, and sounds that speak to Bishop of his heart. Itās a immense part of his soul, one that he says feels empty when heās away from it. Yes, I understood Bishop too on a visceral level.
Soooo⦠anyone seeing a potential issue here for a HEA? Because yes, Bishop is a associate professor at UWW, thatās a both a field that calls for major time spent on digs (wherever they may be found) but he likes the city and his oceans.
This may be a case where these men are so well crafted as to feel real. We understand their inner emotions and can then see past a simple relationship whereas love here being everything. For me instead of focusing on their HFN status, all I could think of is this relationship has a real time limit realistically speaking. That sometimes love isnāt enough.
While realistic, probably not the tone Locey was going for in this romance.
The story doesnāt address my concerns about the romance feeling like a summer ranch fling however much they declared their love.
Add that to the fact that none of the other storylines (entertaining and suspenseful major threads) come to any fruition . Each one is left to continue through to the next book. Not one is resolved.
I got to the end of Dawnās Desire feeling as though Iād read the first half of a book where the rest of it was missing.
Iām sure more information about each mystery and plot will be featured in book 2 in this series. However, that story doesnāt center around Bishop and Nate but another couple entirely.
And unlike Landon and Martell who communicated and worked , in that novel, how the complications from each manās job would fit into their newly domesticated lifestyle, here between Nate and Bishop we get nothing. Just a declaration of love.
Just not very satisfying, at least for me.
So finally, Dawnās Desire does a great job in setting up the foundation and conflicts going forward in the series. It does nothing to resolve any thread just a setup and move forward.
It does give us a age gap, layered realistic quick romance between Nate and Bishop, running from lust to love. We understand and come to love each man, easy to do as theyāre intelligent, funny, poignant, and sexy.
But is this a romance built or written in a way that feels lasting? Not so much. More like Nateās first step out of emotional hibernation than a HEA. And I could see Bishop, at another dig, thinking about Nate as the one thing he left behind. That feels believable.
Will the upcoming stories change them and my general feelings about this couple? Remains to be seen. Along with the conclusions to some of the mysteries started here.
Iāll be waiting anxiously for the next novel to see what it brings.
Stronghold is a sweet, heartwarming romance. A second chance at love tale, we watch a reunion between chef Judson and maple sugarer Skyler after being best friends growing up then driven apart for a decade. One , Skyler who remained in Burlington to help with his familyās dairy farm. The other , Judson, fleeing Vermont for Paris and culinary school.
Alternating POV (standard for the series) guide us into complete understanding of each man and their complicated relationships, painful pasts, and tenuous plans for the future. I quickly grew to love them both.
Ashley characters are engaging, layered, and easy to connect to. The families that also are closely connected are equally charming and realistic. And the interplay between each man and their mothers seem so spot on that you feel as though you could be sitting on stool in the kitchen along side them as they chat. Plus all that maple syrup and recipes to drool over.
As with all the stories, characters and couples youāve gotten to know and adore make appearances here, from slight mentions to full secondary character status. It takes a village to build this series and you really feel like you know these people and Burlington itself. Go Moo U!
Yes thereās some angst on the low end of the meter, and a lovely ending. What a terrific new installment!
I love a great series. Thereās nothing better then to read one story, fall in love with the setting, people, atmosphereā¦.everything and then see you donāt have to stop at book one.
If the literary gods and goddesses are watching over you, the series will be lengthy and one that keeps building on the foundation and layers of the stories before.
Vino and Veritas is that series. Written by multiple authors, starting with Annabeth Albert, each sweet, heartwarming romance has added more texture and richness as well as characters to an already amazing central element.
That would be Vino (the all inclusive bar) and Veritas (the connecting/neighbor bookstore).
From that great center has sprung book after book with diverse characters (dairy farmers, bloggers, former hockey players, chefs, you name it) with their personal issues, often challenging family dynamics, and fascinating albeit stumbling journeys to love and HEA.
I mean look at that list of authors! I have put the full list of books to date (18 of them and growing) at the end of this review. Feel free to use it as a personal check list.
And because the books are written by a variety of authors this series always feels fresh and exciting. Plus if youāre unfamiliar with some of these authors, what a great way to discover someone new.
I have been reading them all in the order listed below because once I found the first book, Featherbed, then I just couldnāt stop. Like eating chocolates, one naturally leads to the next snd then the nextā¦..
Havenāt found one yet that isnāt a true delight and great read.
Check this and all the ones out for yourself. I absolutely recommend eqch and every one.
A second chance at love? Or a second chance to ruin everything?
When Skyler spots the new bartender at Vino and Veritas, his body responds before the guy even turns around. But when he does, it takes only a heartbeat for recognition to set in and for sparks to fly. Judsonās been gone for ten years, but heās the man Skyler never forgot. Or forgave.
The last place Judson wants to be is back home in Burlington, living with family. Not so long ago he was a world-class chef with the lifestyle to prove it. Now heās serving drinks and flying under the radar until he can get the hell out again. But when his childhood best friend reenters his life, looking finer than any entree at a five-star restaurant, he wonders if itās time to update his menu of life choices.
Working through past wounds with Skyler wonāt be easy, though, especially with family obligations–and the occasional dairy cow–interfering. When their loyalty is tested, will their newly built stronghold be sturdy enough to withstand the storm?
Stronghold is a sweet and sexy Vino & Veritas romance with some creative use of maple syrup.
Vino and Veritas series:
šµFeatherbed (Vino and Veritas 1) by Annabeth Albert
When a simple āfind & fetchā case throws private investigator Twig Starfig and newly-minted wizard, Quinn Broomsparkle, into the middle of an EBI murder investigation, itās just another day in the Elder Realm.
If murder were Twigās only problem, heād be the luckiest half-dragon in the land. Murder he can handle. Fulfilling his promise to his scheming, power-hungry father to run for a seat on Lighthelmās city council? Meh, heād rather face a demon with a toothache.
On top of their case going sideways, and Twig running for a council seat he really doesnāt want, Twig and Quinn are forced to face some unpleasant realities about their budding romance, while still learning how to handle the wizard-familiar bond they now share. Throw in a red fury with abysmal taste in boyfriends, a ghost pirate-parrot who drinks too much, a murderer who will stop at nothing to get what they want, a host of new friends and enemies, and youāve got a situation where no one is safe and everyone is Fairy Game.
Be Fairy Game, next book in the Starfig Investigations series by Meghan Maslow, picks up after the events that occurred to bring Half dragon half fairy PI Twig Starfig together with his lover and not as yet formalized mate, wizard Quinn Broomsparkles.
Now with their assistant, the demon Red Fury Bill, and Pie, ghost pirate parrot with a taste for the tavern, itās another client thatās claiming their attention away from the personal issues theyāve yet to address about their complicated relationship.
Maslow is really such a great writer. Each story in this series builds on the preceding one, growing ever richer in its foundation universe, new characters, and expanding relationship dynamics within the current family and couple structures.
Here with what seems to be a simple case of find a object brings about absolute chaos in the very best (meaning murderous, hilarious, shocking, and surprisingly poignant) way. Maslowās great blending of high fantasy (Fae, orcs,selkie etc) with horror (vampire professors) meshes so well together along with other beings weāve yet to put names to. Honestly we need more of Cookie.
Combine breath-taking, white knuckle action with rollicking great sex, whimsical names, and storylines that are getting increasingly layered and complex and you have characters, story, and a series thatās positively addictive.
I need to know more about the relationship between Auric, Twigās master manipulator of a father and his fierce Fae guard . A whole book as a matter of fact.
Plus thereās Leo, the EBI agent, lithe, highly intelligent and somehow always in the middle of things. Hmmmm.
Honestly the Elder Realm just keeps getting more snd more fascinating with each story and character. Plus Twig and Quinnās relationship still has so many unanswered questions.
Onto His Fairy Share next!
Then Iāll be begging for more. I can already tell. Itās that type of series.
Need a new fantasy book and series? Start here. Highly recommended.
If youāre looking for something sweet, light hearted, filled with laughter and love, then grab up Operation Meet Cute, the first book in KM Neuholdās new Operation HEA series.
Adorable Harlow , his parents ugly divorce haunting him, decides the way to HEA and his true love is through a movie āmeet cuteā moment. And heās been busy staging his own for yearsā¦.to no avail.
Teddy, his neighbor upstairs, has been watching Harlowās search go unrewarded for 4 years, the same amount of time Teddy has been Harlowās best friend. Only his heart wants more.
This best friends to lovers story is funny, engaging, full of great lines and captivating characters. Alternative POV work beautifully to move both the storylines and romance forward.
By the time weāve reached the ending, both the couple and reader are satisfied and ready for the next step.
What can I say? What a outstanding story! And not the least of which because every element comes across as a fully adult intelligent relationship thatās being explored, grown, and in the end, committed to.
Hallelujah
Rainbow Cove is a terrific series, heartwarming, rainbow, and yes, kinky.
Hope on the Rocks delivers up the story of bartender/co owner of Rainbow Tavern, Adam Ringerās, path to a very beautiful and somewhat kinky HEA.
His partner to be? Dr Quinn Strauss, the townās GP whoās current heartbreak leads him to Adamās bar, a load of cocktails and a drunken confession about his secret desire for a Daddy.
Which just so happens to fit beautifully in with Adamās need to be a Daddy, especially to the appealing man before him so in need of being taken care of.
What follows is first an agreement for a summer friends with benefits arrangement, no ties, to help Quinn explore fully his sexual/emotional desire for a Daddy.
As with the previous story. Lumber Jacked, which explored rope kink, beautifully so, Hope on the Rocks focuses its men and their burgeoning relationship around their mutual desire/need for Daddy kink. Albert expertly uses her characters and their relationship to explain exactly what this type of kink means and how it fits into a committed partnership.
Far from any sort of sex tutelage into Daddy role play, we get a sexy, moving, and meaningful story, full of adult communication on each otherās needs, expectations, and secret desires. Safety and trust, patience and love. All seen and experienced by Quinn and Adam as their summer and relationship deepens.
What barriers there are to overcome are ones that are equally realistic and ones I appreciate as they affected their dynamic. Demands by family, fears generated by past history, even work schedulesā¦..all that rings so true.
The men are so sympathetic and engaging, both separately and as a couple that I read this story from start to finish without stopping. Thatās a true measure for me of how much I love a book and how fully Iām involved in that universe and couple.
Here? It was 100 percent, I was all in and didnāt want to leave them and Rainbow Cove behind at the end.
I have no idea how many more stories the author intends to write in this series but hereās hoping that Rainbow Coveās future is bright, as shiny and wonderful as this story and all those before it.
Tara Lainās stories always leave me with warm, happy feelings. I certainly adore the characters she introduces her readers to in her books and series. And her storylines are well plotted and end satisfactory.
So it was with real anticipation that I started her Fuzzy Love series . The central character being a Papillon, huge bat earned tiny ball of high intelligence and energy. Yep, Iām all in immediately as I love books with animals as main or largely secondary characters.
Can I say right now I absolutely love Bat? Thatās Batshit Crazy, the Queen of the Universe, yes, sheās amazing.
The rest of the universe and main couple, Em, the vet and the defense attorney, Finn Morgenstern, are so engaging and heartwarming that they not only deserve Bat but clearly each other and a HEA.
This story is full of suspense, action, character growth, romance, and dog on criminal adventures. Itās fast paced and so much fun.
I was fully involved with everyone and their relationships, and their HEA.
That includes the delightful glimpses we get of the people in the next books who inhabit Emās sitting room .
Iām absolutely recommending this book and the series. The cover is on point. Look at that dog! The coloring exactly and the attitude! Pure sass! And the butterfly ears the breed is named for. Love it.
Reviewers And Dog Lover/owners note: Like tv series and movies, a book can make a breed so irresistible that it makes people want one for themselves, without exactly checking out if that breed is right for you and your lifestyle.
Tara Lain does a responsible job here in noting aspects of the Papillon breed that make it not for everyone. They are highly energetic and intelligent. They are territorial, and yes barkā¦..a lot. Alarm barking, hey look whatās passing by, whatās that sound barking. Itās part of the breed and she had her characters mention that repeatedly, albeit fondly and sometimes with exasperation.
They do outstanding as agility dogs because they need an outlet for that intelligence and energy. Donāt confuse this breed with that of a lap dog. Uh no. š
