Dustin left his ex-wife 6 months ago, after 10 years of a miserable marriage, when he catches her cheating on him. He has dated a few women since then. Had a few one night stands, but nothing prepared him for the intense and immediate attraction to Brandon, when he spots him across the bar. He ha...
i liked the first half of the book well enough, but later i just couldn't get into it - dustin's moping was just plain annoying and repetitive, imo. i love a good dose of self-antagonism in my books, but seriously, his musings bored me. 'yeah, yeah, you have it tough, now shut up.' i don't like i...
I liked this short story starting off the Market Garden series, but really it is only a taster. More or less one scene between two rent boys (one of whom feels far more than just a working relationship for the other) and a voyeuristic client, who takes them from the club back to his hotel room. ...
Jason is the owner of a gay night club, struggling with the overhead and a mortgage he can't afford after his ex-boyfriend left him high and dry. Micheal is a divorced acupuncturist struggling to make ends meet. After 5 years of pain from a biking accident Jason begrudgingly takes his friend Seth...
I guess I must be a sucker for lover-priest stories, because I liked Mark of Cain too. But it's not a kink that draws me to these stories, it's the surprise and pleasure at seeing a character involved with religion that's not a stereotype: the fundamentalist, homophobic villain. I'm sure there ar...
This is more like 2.5*--possible spoilers!The second novel by L.A. Witt that I read, and unfortunately it confirmed what I took away from the first.This book isn't written badly, most of the prose is competent, there are few if any plotholes, the dialogue fits the characters, there's a story arc ...
O-M-G - The Virgin & The Slut...so perfect.I didnt think anything could top the first book. This book is going straight to the 6 star & favourite shelves.Kieran has to be one of my all time favourite characters in the m/m genre. He is shamelessly promiscuous but in such a way that your happy for ...
Wow! I GOT MORE! Pheew! I have just read #1 "Quid pro quo and gave it 5 stars. I said I wanted more, and OMG it's a whole series! This is #2 and it's just as hot. Holy crap. This also made me want more, and there's lots more books left in the series. Can't wait to read more . The next book is abo...
Really really liked this one. It was nice to have two main characters that were whole solid people. Sure there were problems each MC was but they dealt with the problems of deployment, missing family, etc. No one is 'broken' as is the case in many stories. The angst of this story comes from the ...
I almost didn't read this book after reading some of the reviews, but I'm so glad I did. For me, it was everything I want in a story. The characters were great, the story was interesting, I really loved the complexity of finding love/starting a relationship with someone who was the other man. I f...
2.5 'Damn this cover is bloody smoking hot' stars.If it wasn't for the subject matter this would possibly have had a 3 star rating. It was easy to read, and part of me liked the characters. Both Seb and Luke were HOT, no doubt BUT I just couldn't quite grasp Seb's jumping into the sack with Luke ...
Dom and sub books aren't really my thing, but the Market Garden series keeps getting such good reviews and I like LA Witt's writing, so I wanted to read this book. I liked the fact that the main character Spencer was black. I wasn't expecting that. I appreciated the diversity. The relationship be...

Around Valentine’s Day Riptide was giving out free codes (via tumblr) for various books they published. Well, this is the book in which I received a free code for.I sure am glad I was given the opportunity to read this novella. It does a fabulous job of introducing intriguing MCs and the world ...
a decent 4 star rating, I loved the 2 MC's and the whole set-up. It reminded me of Clean Slate and First Blood so I backed this up with a re-read of CS and FB.while I did like the MC's and the overall story, some things bugged me. To my feeling there was too big a difference between writing style...
An emotional read and overall, very well written. I went through a half a box of Kleenex, to be honest.I'ts difficult to write a story with so much background and history based on extremely painful and heart-wrenching events for the main characters. LA Witt navigates these waters well with a fi...
Teen Infatuation Meets Mid Life Angst--Perfect Recipe for a Great ReadL.A. Witt's thoroughly delightful and insightful series of gay men who live and love each other in Seattle slows down a bit here from the first two somewhat hedonistic tomes. But that's because it reflects the personalities of ...
Sometimes love deserves a second chance. This was a sweet story about two men who, while in the military, had a relationship that would have gotten them booted. It ended badly. Three years later, Chris is teaching math at a community college and Justin needs the math credits for his degree and...
This book was a fast and okay read for me. It was a short story and kept me interested throughout the book. Master Chase and Master Raul sounds crazy HOT! Sexy Doms in leather??? Don't mind if I do!!! It was not a complicated read and I found myself frustrated on both of their parts and disappoin...
This book features Callum and James who we met only briefly in a previous book; Callum is James' chauffeur and previously featured in a story where he picked up Nick from Market Garden. Callum can see James isn't happy and that he uses Market Garden to help with the stress of his job but he think...
3.5 starsIn For the Living, L.A. Witt tells us the bittersweet love story between Jay Warren and Scott Lawson. Jay has been in denial all his life. He did not want to be gay, so he married a wonderful woman, Misty, and tried as hard as he could to make it work. But it didn’t, so in the first chap...
Can't give this any more than 5 stars, what a shame because Book 2 was even better than book 1.This book picks up from the first, with Elliott and Derek landing in Hawaii for Elliott's 'honeymoon' sans his ex, Ben. Derek is going to show Elliott the sights of his home over 2 weeks, and a good tim...
Elliot Chandler is meticulous, planning every detail of everything down to the letter. But when his perfectly planned wedding doesn’t go off as planned, he finds himself jilted and stranded at the airport en route to Hawaii for his “honeymoon” sans his groom. Derek Windsor is kind of a nonchalant...
This was a short story told in Derek's POV which was nice since the rest of the books were told in Elliot's POV. This was Derek's last trip to Seattle as a single man. When he left Seattle for good, he'd be married to the love of his life who was moving to Maui with him so they didn't have to con...
Very sweet, low key yet hot romance. I absolutely loved the two MCs - Joshua/Julien and Chris. I understood Chris' struggle with what he had been taught about God and religion and how intolerant that religion is when it comes to his life. What a strong person! It's hard to deal with the alien...
I received my copy from the publisher through Love Romances and MoreThis is an example of the title fitting the story like a glove. ‘It’s Complicated’ and boy is it ever. Brad and Jeff’s relationship has been going through ups and downs more or less from the start. After their last down they’ve b...
Совершенно не впечатлило, хотя лучше, чем первая часть. К концу немного поинтереснее стало,но совсем в конце. Все проблемы разрешаются быстро и несуразно. История с ребенком совсем странная, на фоне всех этих модов и вампиров можно было что-то поинтереснее придумать, а не "напились и так получило...
Not many authors could use so many different ideas about their couple in the one book and still end up with a story that I enjoyed. There was the older/younger man coupling, the bodyguard and his charge, plus the military was thrown in as well. With all that, this book could of been a jumbled up ...
