REVIEW: The Scars That Bind Us – Michele Notaro

The Scars That Bind Us - Michelle Notaro

Genre: Urban Fantasy, Romance LGBTQ+ Category: Gay, Bi, Demi, Non-Binary (secondary character) Reviewer: Maryann Get It On Amazon About The Book What kind of mage would be crazy enough to crush on a shifter? Me. Apparently me. The world is a messed-up place. Especially for those of us who have magic, and I know just how terrible it can be firsthand. Which is one of the reasons I try to stay away from people… humans and shifters especially. Unfortunately, the NHSO forces magi to work alongside shifters to help protect the humans from taragorians—scary beasts from another realm. Which means I’m thrown onto a new team and forced to work … Read more

Genre: YA, Coming of Age LGBTQ+ Category: Gay, Bi, Ace, Non-Binary Reviewer: Scott Get It On Amazon | Publisher About The Book Jules leaves. Gabriel rages. Estelle changes. Joshua hides. In the aftermath of a classmate’s suicide, a boy embroils himself in a community of Midwestern teens, each doing what they can to cope as they stumble—together and apart—toward a life worth living.

Cold Cases and Bitter Enemies - J.M. Dabney

Genre: Mystery, Police Procedural, Romance LGBTQ+ Category: Gay, Pan, Ace Reviewer: Maryann Get It On Amazon About The Book An unknown enemy wanted to take everything from us. Graves I’d spent all my forty-plus years paying for mistakes when I’d simply been human. Living in the shadow of my friend’s happiness grew harder every day. I didn’t mind being the odd one out. I didn’t mind being considered the unlovable strait-laced-ish one to their mayhem. Acceptance after a lifetime of not measuring up was nice. I’d found my rhythm and my place among the weirdness of my unit. That was until Marcel Douglas, the new ego-maniac in Homicide, decided he … Read more
