Everything changes when new neighbors are moving into what is described as a McMansion.
This book was ridiculously hot. Like, 50% sex scenes. I don't normally love multiple partners/harem, but it makes sense in this series and doesn't make me uncomfortable like I sometimes get. Curious what the next book will hold. ...more

The younger brother, Kit, suffers abuse at the hands of his step father, Ted. Kit runs off to find Gareth after an issue with the step dad. And so begins their instant attraction they fight for a couple of days before embracing a daddy/boy relationship.
For me, issues were skimmed over too quickly in this book and it just wasn't enough. I enjoyed parts of it but felt as a whole there was enough substance or details and everything happens too quickly....more

Brick is in his late 30's, muscular, tattooed, fit, and newly retired from the Navy Seals. He is just getting started with renovations and updates to a lake front home on some acreage, which he has inherited from his aunt. He comes to find out a neighbor, a villainous wealthy old man, had been pestering his aunt and is beginning to pester him with offers to buy the home. Brick comes to meet Roman though one such offer and their hands zing at first contact.
What follows includes scary tornados, murder attempts, bodyguarding, more murder attempts, and a happy ever after.
I would love if this was longer. I'm not opposed to insta love or insta super strong connections, but the more backstory and details the happier I am, with any book. Enjoyable and recommended nonetheless.

The murder mystery aspect of this book was easily 5 stars. The story involves a cold case with 20 and 30 year old deaths, and contemporaneous murders in Or. A very small sheriffs station in calls in help from the FBI and the investigation ensues.
The romance aspect of the book I give 4 stars. There wasn't really enough interaction between Adam and Rob to warrant the ending, or the feelings between them.
I would be very interested in reading a sequel, but this book is from 2015 and as far as I can tell is a standalone.

This book was epic and wonderful. Tal managed to include sexual discovery amidst an ebola outbreak, gang turf wars, Tal Bauer will never let me down.
This book was epic and wonderful. Tal managed to include sexual discovery amidst an ebola outbreak, gang turf wars, international terrorism, nuclear threat, and a humanitarian crisis without taking anything away from the terrifying action and main story line. I would not have thought it possible.
As always, Tal's prose pulled me into the story and the heart wrenching conditions people still endure and suffer in impoverished areas of the world. Tal created a world that was previously unknown to me with his description of the Republic of Congo and its people and it is a gorgeous, terrifying, deadly, and heart-breaking place.
With all the action, I could easily see this as a big budget movie. For the book, the only negative I have to add is that I wish the book was longer. Would love to know more of Ikolo and Elliot's backstory and more of them, together....more
Something about AH books just do it for me. I think it's the absolute physical need the characters feel for each other, omegaverse or not. Illicit is Something about AH books just do it for me. I think it's the absolute physical need the characters feel for each other, omegaverse or not. Illicit is no different. I absolutely loved every minute of reading this.
My only complaint is that the book is too short. A longer read could give more history, day to day interactions between the MC's, and more chapters from Jon/Anthony's POV. ...more
