Review: If You Want Me (Toronto Terror #2) by Helena Hunting


🩷💚 IF YOU WANT ME 💚🩷

Toronto Terror, Book 2

LIVE NOW!



A standalone age-gap, dad's best friend's hockey romance.

There’s no one more off limits than my best friend’s daughter.

Peggy Aurora Hammerstein. The Toronto Terror’s unofficial team princess. I would never do anything to mess with our team dynamics this late into the hockey season, but seeing her work in the front office changed something for me.

I see her as she is now: a powerful woman with ambition for miles. When I hold her against me, she fits perfectly.

Her little flirts and taunts push my buttons, if she doesn’t stop–my control just might break.
But I can never cross that line. I can never know what it could be to call her mine.

I’ve never wanted anyone more than Aurora and no one can ever know.

*This is Hollis Hendrix's standalone novel. If you want to meet Hollis before you read this book, check out If You Hate Me, Rix and Tristan's story.


MY REVIEW


Aurora has a little problem - she has a huge, forbidden crush on her dad's best friend and teammate, Hollis. And ever since a little uh, incident, she's been noticing heat in his eyes when he looks at her, even though his words say something much different. She knows her dad would have a coronary if he ever found out anything ever happened between them, so if something does...they'll need to keep it a secret even after Hollis realizes they need to tell Roman.


His Princess may think he doesn't reciprocate her crush, but she couldn't be more wrong. She also couldn't be more forbidden to him, so he's tried to put boundaries in place. Those boundaries are having an adverse effect on their friendship, though, and he doesn't like that she's been avoiding him. And when he can't stand it any longer and gives in, he knows it's going to complicate things if her dad ever finds out. But he just may find that she's become even more important than even his friendship with Roman.


I love Rix and Tristan from If You Hate Me, but I think I love Aurora and Hollis even more. The forbiddenness is yummy of course, but what I love so much is that they're both just so sweet, and so perfect for each other, even though Hollis was in denial for so long. Once they gave in, there was no way they could go back to the way they were, and it was pure inevitability that they'd end up together, even though they'd have to face Roman's wrath first to get to their happy ever after. I'm not normally an age gap fan, but here the gap isn't that large, thanks to Roman's having had Aurora while he was very young, and the two have been close and in each other's lives for a long time. Forbidden, age gap, hockey, and steamy tension and chemistry = a fun, delicious and heartfelt addition to the Toronto Terror series. These hockey men are sexy and just waiting for love to find them, I'm impatiently waiting for the next one to fall next.

Review: Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette (American Revolutionary Tales 2) by Regina Kammer

Review of Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette by Regina Kammer Captain Samuel Taylor and Lieutenant Patrick Hamilton recall their first steamy encounter, which was a MFM threesome in a brothel. It morphed into more and now the two are contemplating their futures with the women they love, and their futures with each other. If you think times are hard for the LGBT community now, think of how hard they were during the American Revolution. Winter Interlude is well developed, which is surprising given its short length. I am so interested in knowing what is to become of Samuel and Patrick's forbidden relationship. Do they stay together? Or do they go their separate ways, and live out their lives with their women? Now that they've admitted their love for each other, how impossible would it be for them to be without each other? I have to know, now! If you like MM fiction and/or historical fiction, I highly recommend you give Winter Interlude a read. It...
