What is Upsy-Daisy Dom by Tanya Chris (Blurb and Exclusive Excerpt)

Today I’m going to introduce you to Upsy-Daisy Dom – the third and last book in Tanya Chris’ LGBTQ BDSM Hell’s Bedroom series. I’ve already reviewed the first two books – Kitchen Sink Dom and Chicken Soup Dom, and I’ll be reviewing this one on May 25th, but for now, here are the cover, blurb and an exclusive excerpt.

Upsy-Daisy Dom – Hell’s Bedroom, Book 3 (final book)

Themes and genres: MM Contemporary BDSM Romance, LGBTQ+, crime

WARNING: Mature Content

Blurb:

It’s really rude to wish you’d been kidnapped. Especially when your best friend actually was. But Tripp wishes something would happen to him. He likes his sex kinky, and he likes his kink on the fun side of risky. Which means he’s got his eye on Sebastian Gage, the incredibly handsome, incredibly rich, incredibly dangerous Dom.

What I Think about The Scouts by Kasia Bacon (Review and a Picture Teaser)

The Scouts – The Order, Book 3

Themes and genres: Fantasy LGBT Romance, elves, warriors, archers

WARNING: Mature Content

Blurb:

Lochan and Ervyn—an assassin and a sharpshooter—remain in service to the Queen as part of an elite reconnaissance unit.

They strike at enemies of the Crown without mercy. They get the job done, leaving no loose ends or witnesses. When Magic Supremacists threaten the safety of Elven Country, they do their duty—whatever it takes.

Lochan and Ervyn belong to each other, but will serving together as comrades-in-arms strengthen their bond as lovers or tear them apart?

What I Think about Chicken Soup Dom by Tanya Chris

Chicken Soup Dom – Hell´s Bedroom, Book 2

 Themes and genres: MM Contemporary BDSM Romance, LGBTQ+, crime, police officer, abduction

WARNING: Mature Content

Spoiler alert: My reviews are usually spoiler-free, but since this is the second book in a series in which the novels should be read within order, there are some spoilers for Book 1. Also, I comment in length on a sex scene that’s in the first third of this book.

Blurb:

When Arlo boarded a bus to Philadelphia to turn himself over to a master he’d never met, he thought he was on his way home, that he would finally have both the sex he craved and an authority figure to care for him in a way his parents never had. But what he got was worse. Much, much worse. Now he’s been rescued, but where does that leave him?

What I Think about the Audio Version of A Body in a Bathhouse by Brad Shreve

Today’s review won’t exactly follow my usual format. Why?

But before we kick off the audio review, here’s some info on the book.
