A life of books . . .
When the publicist reached out to me about this one, I wasn’t sure I had the capacity, but it was five months before it was published so I figured I’d make time!*
That sort of happened. Khabaar was on my TBR pile nonstop from February onward but between all the knitting I was doing and getting distracted by EVERY MM romance novel possible, I kept putting it off to my detriment.
After thoroughly enjoying Hot Seat I knew I would say yes to this one the second it landed in my inbox, and I did.*
And coming out of Hot Seat I knew one of the protagonists would be the hotshot pilot, Dell, mentioned toward the end of that book, but I didn’t know who the Canali would be.

Lucky Match is the tale of Lucky McGuire, a cocky student who started a dating service near his college campus, and Hayes Brantley, his recently divorced professor who’s decided to lean into his bisexuality and date a man.

Who doesn’t love a best friends-to-lovers bisexual awakening? I know I do, so that’s why I grabbed a copy from Gay Romance Reviews when this landed in my inbox.*
His Heart Knows is the story of Axel, a graduate student book store clerk who comes from the “wrong side of the tracks”, and Sawyer, the golden child following in his parent’s footsteps making his name as an up-and-coming lawyer.
