Review: B-Sides


B-Sides
B-Sides by Cheryl Nitely

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



JR gives it all up to be a star but now he's re-evaluating his life. It seems his first love has moved on but maybe he can give it try with Wyatt. I really liked most of the story. According to JR's Dad his first love has moved on and his happy. JR is really to open up a bit and finds a wonderful friend and partner in Wyatt. But the end of the story sort of threw the whole thing off for me. It suddenly seems so up in the air and uncertain with the potential for lots of huge hurting. Wonder if well get to see where this ends up?

Red Sun Resort
Red Sun Resort by Carl Hamlin

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This one as a bit of different set up than many of the spanking stories I've read. Here we have a great guy and nice normal woman working together at the resort. When a guest gets out of hand and asks for a spanking instead of being kicked out they get their wish but it is just about discipline. Sammi and Jim start a relationship and spanking for fun becomes a part of it.

Simon is rich and powerful. Belle has dark fantasy. He's everything she wants but Belle is unsure of his plans. Simon seems a little unsure himself because it's all different this time. I like how the reader gets into both of their heads. Can't wait to see what might happen with her sister.

Usually this amount of drama and angst would have me trying really hard to finish the book but this just works. It ends up being a beautiful story of unlikely heros and love growing in an unusual place. It has hope, love, and working toward the future.

The Siren
The Siren by Breanna Hayse

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This story is different because there is no romance involved. The guys keeping bright but bratty Sam is not a love interest but her brother, uncle, and dad. And with everything going on it takes all three to keep an eye on her. There are lots of other elements that make this story different and interesting but I don't want to give anything away.

Correcting Kathy
Correcting Kathy by Patricia Green

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



Kathy sure catches the attention of Professor Emory and it is about the most embarrassing moment of her life. But he feels a pull to her and wants to help her with a bad habit. But that path is full of risks. But sometimes the risk is worth it when you end up in a relationship. This story has plenty of humor especially when everyone seems to show up at Kathy's apartment at the same time.

Six by Tara Spears

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



This story has everything: a cute baby, an abandoned lover, an ugly divorce, a precocious kindergärtner, evil in-laws, and a kidnapping. And when it all gets mixed together love is in the air. And the neat thing about love is that it gets passed down to the next generation. Great story.

More a 3.5. Interesting story and well written but I was a little disappointed at the pace and letting us care about the teacher yet it looks like he's going to be locked out. It was a good story but it really seemed like the story seemed more about Lucy. We meet Louisa and get an idea of what is to come in her life as the wife in the nursery but she wasn't really revealed to anyone yet.
