Wanting a steamy gay romance novel to read ?


The Lion of Kent
Review: The Lion of Kent - Aleksandr Voinov and Kate Cotoner - August 2010
Are you looking for a steamy read , are you into reading GLBT novels ? Did you enjoy the film Brokeback Mountain? The Lion of Kent takes us back to the place and year of England, 1176 -back to the years of Knights in Shining Armours , Kings , Maids and Squires. The Lion of Kent focuses on a squire and his King . William Raven is a squire who has spent his whole life training to fight and eventually become a knight . Lord  Richard has just returned home after five years of trying to re-find himself.  As the novel goes along, we discover that Lord Richard is gay and we see him and William begin a sexual relationship behind closed doors - some scenes are detailed graphically so if M/M is not your thing then don't bother reading this book , but if your like me and really don't mind whatever as you know thats what you expect from the story - then you will find it a steamy historical romance with of course a bit of action and fighting as the other storyline is that Lord Richard's brother Stefan is planning on killing and murdering him. What then follows right to the end is William's fight to save not only his King but his lover....

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
