Absolutely loved this one. The mystery, haunted house and ghosts. A murder, some very soft and slow romance. Trans lead, soft MM vibes. JLHs voice is also EXCELLENT

Adored how much of an asshole Kieran is. Great slow burn, office romance, and having two asshole heroes is extra special. Sprinkle in a little intern-supervisor trope and this was great. I appreciated how respectful Seth was about his pronouns, comfortability and overall health as a human, rather than being inspired like how Marcus was. Fuck Marcus, love Seth. 

Also that shower - bed sex scene was *chef's kiss* excellent.

So tender and sweet. T4T romance between long time pen pals. Managed to be informative, steamy, and tender as hell.

My first BL inspired romance. The possessive relationship between Eli and Haruka was excellent, and exploring cnc through telepathy was very neat - i'm into it. The plot did start to meander near the end and I started loosing steam near when they go to Japan. Eli just kept getting dunked on time after time which got a bit exhausting.

Problematic themes aside, this was a steamy one with great smut. Honey food play involved, knotting, and a sad omega and sweet younger alpha. Loved how OTT it was - breaking the bathroom floor and falling into your neighbors room is just chaotic enough that it works!
