Review: Murder on Milverton Square (The Milverton Mysteries book 1) by G.B. Ralph

SiriusB Reviews Category / B+ Reviews / Book Reviews / Recommended Readscozy m/m mystery / New Zealand9 Comments

Black and white image of a shirtless hot young man with tribal tattoos on his upper arms and chest, leaning against a wall with one arm above his head. He's looking down, kind of via his armpit. In his other hand he's carrying a rugby ball which is resting against his black trackpants-clad leg

REVIEW: Fall by Karina Bliss

KaetrinB+ Reviews / Recommended ReadsContemporary / New Zealand / Rock-Star6 Comments

Recommended Read

Dear Karina Bliss, When I read the You Had Me At Christmas anthology recently, my favourite novella was Play. When you offered me a review copy of Fall, I snapped it up. It took me much of the book to work out that Fall begins before the action in Play. ... more >
