Julie’s Book Review - Review of Lick Is A Four-Letter Word

Rating: 5 stars

Felicity is on her own for the 1st time of her life. She lived with her parents then moved in with her boyfriend who became her husband. In a mysterious hit and run he was killed and she was crippled. Now for 2 years she has grieved and now just works and spends time with her friends. She decides to go out and do something for herself. A bikini wax, will make her feel pretty.

Josh and Troy, best friends since childhood, both lost there fathers at a young age and now there families are both very close, almost like family. Both have feelings for one another but neither will show one another how they truly feel.  Both like women, there families are suspecting there may be more between the 2 men. When they lose a bet with a sister, they have to go to a beauty salon. Sitting in the room naked with only a paper gown to cover up with, gets them talking but when they get locked in the room with a beautiful woman, things really heat up.

One encounter, is not enough, for the men. And Felicity’s libido gets turned way up in a big way. She is turned on more in those few minutes with the two men  than she has ever been. But will  something from the past put them all in danger.

This was a really HOT book. Talk about a build up. The chemistry between the 3 is smoking and I could not put it down. The story of all 3 really draws you into the story. You feel Felicity’s pain from the loss of her husband and the attraction that is denied between the 2 men. Josh and Troy are great together but with the addition of Felicity to the mix…explosive. I will say it again HOT!! great story loved it. Please if you have any more send them to me! Would love to review more. adults only!!

The Romance Reviews (TRR)

Rating: 4 stars

SOMETHING SHIFTY is an above-average MM shifter romance with two good leads, a strong romance, and world building I’d like to read more of.

Professor Seth is the only shifter he’s ever known and his loneliness has prevented him from any meaningful relationships until he meets Dex. Dex is the new alpha of his shifter clan and a rock star. He’s not prepared to meet Seth or for them to be in the middle of a territory dispute with a rival, homophobic shifter clan.

This is a very good romance between Seth and Dex. It happens quickly, yes, but it’s got good emotional intimacy as well as sexual. I really love the low-drama of Seth accepting his desire for Dex since he hadn’t previously been attracted to men. Usually this addition irritates me in stories but here, this was good romance storytelling. This book does use the destined mate trope so familiar to shifter stories but it has a few new accessories that freshened it up for me.

I also liked the plot involving a rival, homophobic clan who are plotting to destroy Dex and take over his clan. This provided a strong plot and showcased the importance of Seth and Dex’s relationship to his clan.

The secondary characters are also very good here, especially Dex’s spitfire sister. The integration of the rock star element to the shifter story seemed odd at first but with the secondary characters explained, it became a well executed novella.

SOMETHING SHIFTY is a very good read I enjoyed and hope becomes a series.

TRR Reviewer: J9

Risk Is A Four-Letter Word is an ARe bestseller! And I totally didn’t expect that! I certainly didn’t expect it to happen over a year AFTER it was released, but hell, I’ll take it.

I can only conclude, it’s because people wanted to read the other books in the series after seeing that Lick Is A Four-Letter Word was out. That’s cool. This series is all about taking risks and chance encounters. How else do we meet our destiny and fall in love?

I want to thank everyone who visited my blog, followed me here, on Facebook, and on Twitter, and commented on the Book Boyfriend post. I am truly grateful to see so many awesome readers stop by. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to answer your responses one by one last week, but my bathroom walls were ripped out and there was mold everywhere and I was kind of freaking out while this was happening. I have a feeling that I might be writing a book someday about a really nice contractor who saves a girl’s life when the roof caves in……

Something Shifty is a bestseller on All Romance eBooks:

It’s also a bestseller on Amazon’s Gay fiction list:

I’m very happy.
