Their Heart A Hive by Fox N. Locke This is a gothic tale of immortality and secrets, but it’s not as dark as you might think. In fact, most of this book is charming, from the setting to the prose and characters. This book is unusual, and hella queer. Go read it! #mmromance #queerbookrec #gothic

In Deeper Waters by F.T. Lukens You get ships, court politics, secrets, family bonds, and a cute love story in this one. There are some heavy moments, but in the end the reader gets a proper happy ending. What I liked about this #book is that neither Tal nor Athlen is naïve about the world. #gay

Golden Boys by Phil Stamper Honestly, this was a fantastic read, and I enjoyed all the characters and their backgrounds and wants and the ways they get there. If you’re looking for something hopeful but also authentic, I would recommend this book with all my heart. #bookrec #mmromance #yanovel

The Unlikely Heir by Jax Calder I like a fish-out-of-water story, and this book delivered because Callum is the most unlikely choice out there. If you’re looking for a well-written book about two men who should not want each other, then this one is for you. #mmromance #gayromance #bookrec

Working out the Kinks by Misha Horne I dig this author’s writing style and will read more by them. This is a fun read for anyone who likes bratty boys, spanking, & a man facing his past & fears.

Call Me By Your Name by André Aciman Call Me by Your Name is an interesting book, and I enjoyed reading it. Would I recommend it to someone who is looking for a summer romance? No. But I would recommend it to someone who likes his boys a bit weird. #bookrec #mmromance #gayromance

Shivers & Thrills by A.C. Harrah While I enjoyed parts of this #novel and the ideas were interesting, the writing was just not there. I’m giving it 2.5 stars for some cute lines and the interesting ideas in this book. Read on your own peril, I guess. #mmromance #bookreview #polyromance

Happy release day to Badmouths and Bards by @azaleacrowley.bsky.social! I’m halfway through this DnD-inspired queer poly romance with two hunky bards and their grumpy monk bodyguard. I’m having a GREAT time. “I want two boyfriends and those boyfriends to be boyfriends” vibes. 📚🏳️‍🌈 📚💙

Heartbreak Boys by Simon James Green A great summer read. It’s a funny and heartwarming book despite the somewhat heartbreaking premise. This is a really heartwarming story about boys coming to terms with love, life, and the trappings of social media. #mmromance #yanovel

Mine by M. Caspian This novella is filthy Daddy-kink erotica. There are some tender moments here too, but mostly it’s a slippery slide into a thing that is less than healthy. People who love darker romances and are looking for the WTF moments will love this one for sure. #mmromance #kink #bookrec

Waiting for Ru by Barbara Elsborg Okay, you get horses, a sunshine MC and Arabian prince. This book deals with some heavy themes, like child abuse, kidnapping, being isolated, bullying, and homophobia. But it has plenty of cute and fun scenes too. I enjoyed this book. 4 Stars #mmromance #gaybook

Lord of Whispered Shadows by Jordan Ko This is a tame book in both the sexual and the demon aspects. Would I recommend this book? Yes, but I’m throwing in warnings: there are a lot of grammar and spelling mistakes. Not a steamy romance, this is a historical cozy fantasy. #mmromance #fantasybook
