It was a decent, if lackluster category romance. The title is misleading; Archimedes Katsaros is most assuredly not a tycoon, hence his marriage to Ondrej in order to prop up his family business. The marriage of convenience trope in contemporary romance is hard to get right, and this book doesn't re...

Mediocre story. Not enough romance and not enough build up. The narrations was good and I may just pick up another from this narrator.

The theater manager wants to highlight the female part of the duo so he fires Eddie because he's gay. Eddie has been seeing Lane who manages a speakeasy for the mob. Lane's done some things he...

Flat characters. Flimsy excuse for a marriage proposal. No sexual tension. No sparks. No chemistry. Heck, I got more chemistry from my high school class.NOTHING convinced me that these two were finally able to fall in love. Major romance failure for me. And I struggle now to find something to compli...

This is a probably a case of "it's not the book, it's me". YMMV.This wasn't one of my favorites in this series, and I'll tell you why. The arranged-marriage/marriage-of-convenience/fake marriage trope - I like that a lot, and while that part of the story worked just fine (I bought the reason for thi...

Well, it wasn't the greatest, but it was by far not the worst I've read, that's for sure. Eddie is a dancer and Lane is a mobster in the late 1920's in NYC. They meet, there's attraction and they begin to see more and more of each other until they fall in love and then decide what they're going t...

Because BL's database does not have this short story as a separate entry, I had to go with the anthology (which is a shame, that was a nice cover on my Kindle edition - very patriotism raising). I picked up this short story (roughly 60-65 Kindle "pages") on sale because the setting interested me -...

Review originally posted at Sinfully.4.5 starsMatt Blanco is the ultimate aging baseball star. He’s loved by the Brooklyn Eagles’ fans and his teammates and is destined for the Hall of Fame. At almost 40 he’s had an amazing career, but he knows his stats aren’t what they were and his time is limited...

2.5 starsI wonder if maybe I'm just not in the right mood, or that the author's stories are no longer works for my current reading taste (the last two of hers I read back in 2012 and 2013, I gave them 2.5 stars as well) ... but I didn't like this as much as other readers. Heck, I couldn't even think...
