Complete standalone books, I liked almost all of them. They have a little bit of something for everyone, no matter what trope you like.

I always enjoy reading anthologies because it always permits me to read stories from new to me authors and it always leads me to discover new authors that I really enjoy. As soon as I saw that this was an MM anthology of 11 stories about people having sex in nature, I just had to read it. All I need to know is that stories are about public sex and I will read them. I was so sold on the premise of this anthology and I ended up really enjoying the stories in it. This was the kind of easy to read and really hot stories I just love reading.

No I in Team by Elizabeth Silver
Rating: 4 stars
Blurb: James goes on a work team building trip in the woods, with four of his coworkers. His coworkers are super hot and he’s very attracted to them. They end up all sleeping together.
My thoughts:
I think that every cognitive thoughts has left my brain after this story. All I am now is in aw of how hot smut in this book was. I always appreciate a good group play (this story is MMMMM) and I really liked how it was done in this book. It was just the right kind of super hot smut I was looking for when I decided to read this anthology.
This story is exactly the type of story I read this anthology for and it just really worked for me. This was the kind of public smut I absolutely love reading about and it was just so so hot.

Under the Stars by Evie Hampton
Rating: 3 stars
Blurb: Tyler goes out to dance and he meets a very hot man, Oakley. Tyler wants to bring him home but they end up having sex in a hidden corner in the streets. And then they meet again and have sex in the middle of a forest.
My thoughts:
This story had a very enjoyable meet cute and it was really hot. Which are two things I really appreciate in short stories. This story was super enjoyable to read. And I really enjoyed the steam in this one. I liked how the story had two steamy scenes because they were both great and very detailed and I really enjoyed them both.
I really enjoyed the ideas behind this story and I was a really big fan of the themes of the story. But I felt like the story took on too many themes, that the story was too short to explore all of them in lengthy details. So I had troubles getting into the story because of that.

Mountain Top by Pandora Pine
Rating: 4 stars
Blurb: Trace goes to the top of a mountain to see the Aurora Borealis. He meets a man Zak, who’s in need of shelter for the night, so they share a tent.
My thoughts:
I really appreciated that even though this is a short story, the story took the time to introduce the characters and to fledge out their characters, that really worked for me.
I just loved the characters in this one so much. They were super well developed and had a nice persona that really shone through their actions and their dialogues.
Plus this story was super hot and super sweet, I just enjoyed this one, so much.
This was the kind of short story I just adore and I would love a full book of this story.

All Cats Are Gay in the Dark by Lynn Van Dorn
Rating: 3.75 stars
Blurb: Toby goes on a camping trip, that his best friend, Grant forced him on.
My thoughts:
Oblivious best friends to lovers that included both main characters pining for each other for years is the superior trope in my book and this one was such a good example of a well done story like this. This story was just so enjoyable to read.
This story was so much fun to read. This was the kind of super fun and fast pasted story I just love reading in anthologies. This story was just so enjoyable to me and I liked it, a lot.

Naughty & Not Nice by Charity Parkerson
Rating: 3 stars
Blurb: Alex has a crush on his dad’s best friend, Jayce and he has been trying to get noticed by him for ages now.
My thoughts:
I love a good dad’s best friend story and this one really hit the spot for me. It was hot, it was sweet, it was steamy, and it had the little edge of forbidness I love in stories like this. This story was the perfect quick read for me and it provided me with such a good time.
Reading this story just put it in a good mood because it included so many things that I enjoy in books and it was a lot of fun to read.
This story was almost the perfect story for me but I just wish that it had been much longer because I felt like a lot of themes in the story weren’t as developed as I wanted them to be, due to the story being super short.

Some of these stories I really enjoyed. I realize it’s hard to write a short story and make it contain everything to be a complete story but some do. I found these fit that criteria.
Evil Hamption Under the Stars fit the criteria. The characters had enough description to get a feel for them. The story about the meeting in the bar and the reason behind it were again well explained. The secondary characters were given an identity such as Tyler’s sister’s reason for needing a plus one. Oakley’s reason for attending the wedding made me sad. Again, this story really felt complete to me.
Pandora Pine Mounta in Top
Here again the author did a great job at describing the mc’s. The handling for the situation they both find themselves in is a little shocking on Zak’s side. Trace has to be the most patient person I have read about in a while. The plans for after they get off the mountain was a finishing touch to the story.
Charity Parkerson Naughty and Not
This story not only describes the mc’s but makes the background to their stories very emotional. Alex having a crush and then when something happens with the two, Jayce’s reaction was heartbreaking for Alex. Jayce on the other hand had his own share of heartbreak. The author not only manages to write a complete story but also make it span a few years. I really enjoyed this story
Marie Sinclair Man Down
The story contains two characters that try to do the right thing. Jackson as a business owner does not get involved with his employees even though he has this attraction to Corbin. Corbin also has an attraction to Jackson but doesn’t act on it until after he quits his job. I wanted to shake Jackson a few times but was glad to see Corbin persisted. Again, this author really did a great job of putting together a complete story.
Shane K. Morton The Clubhouse
I enjoyed this story because it made me think of going back when I was young and some of the friends I had and what we did. These two were really close when they were younger before Kerry moved away. Later as circumstances brings them together and they both find out things they didn’t know about each other when they were young. The attraction between them is so strong I could feel it. I’m not sure if this story actually ends on a hfn of is completed but either way I really enjoyed this story.
Abigail Kade Something a Bit Different
This I have mixed feelings about. It is a short story. I’m not sure I really got a feeling for the characters but the story itself about a married couple is cute. It does have a happy ending and I enjoyed it.
The others I felt were either advertising for another book or no story mostly s*x. But overall I feel this book is worth much more than it costs. I feel the majority of the stories are enjoyable.
