Synopsis 

When a child is born they're a blank canvas. A canvas that is later molded by the influences of the world around them. Those influences determine that child’s future, but they are not always kind. Some of those children will enter adulthood easily, unscathed by the harshness of life, but for others, that journey is not an easy path to follow.

And then there are those, whose journeys are cut short.

He only ever wanted ….. to fit in. 

He only ever wanted ….. to be included. 

He only ever wanted ….. to have friends.

Alec never wanted for anything. 

His parents made sure of that. 

But, what Alec desperately wanted, they couldn’t buy. 

He just wanted to be normal…….. 

He could never see what the rest of us could. 

Smart. Funny. Good-looking. Sensitive. 

Alec only saw what his mind wanted him to see. 

And believed the false truths it told him. 

BUT, I won’t allow him to become one of the lost, and when the clouds clear after the rain, I WILL make him see that he is everything WE believe him to be, and so much more……..

Excerpt

Please don’t cry… 

I don’t suppose you ever thought you’d hear those three words being said to a man, or ever seen a man cry. There’s a common misconception that men don’t suffer like women. However, I believe this has more to do with the man’s pride than anything else. ‘only sissies cry’ I remember my grandfather calling out after I tripped over a rock in his garden and grazed my knee. ‘What are you, a girl?’ he chastised me at the time. 

I was only five years old.

Review

A Matter of Time: BBW Romance by J.M. Dabney
Kat's rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is my honest opinion on this book, although I have enjoyed the book, there was an inconsistency that just made me feel like I had jumped into another story when we came to the first sex scene.
This story is about a woman who hasn't had a sexual encounter for 18 years... After being raped as a teenager and bringing up her son in poverty / minimum wage... This part earned my attention and I really got into the story, and brad, his slow courtship was in my first opinion a 4/5 star review. But when we finally got to the big moment... Well let's just say it was completely out of left field and in my opinion nothing like the reality of what someone whos been through the trauma Philly had would expect on her first sexual encounter... I expected Brad to be the same sweet patient man he had been in the book so far, not turn into a pierced dominant, and Philly lay there and enjoy it - NO not after the trauma described in the beginning of the story It was like I turned the page and had jumped into FSOG by accident. I am still confused to how we went from a sweet second chance romance to erotica at the turn of a page? And I would have given it more stars if the actual sex scenes had had the same theme as the book started with.

So other than the sex scenes the story was well paced and really well thought out, thankfully and I enjoyed the epilogue and the overall plot of the story.

EXCERPT

While he was distracted with the mess she'd made, she studied him. His dark blond hair was threaded with random streaks of silver. His normally smooth jaw was covered with thick stubble that was a few shades darker than his hair. His body was broad and muscular, but not like a bodybuilder. Softer but still powerful. She studied the colorful ink that covered his arms and disappeared under the sleeves of his t-shirt.

“I never knew for sure you had tattoos.”

“Yeah, not many people do. It's a pain in the ass to hide them. I'm not ashamed of them, but I was a teacher, now principal of a small-town school. I don't think many would approve. I've been adding steadily over the years. To be honest, I don't have much skin left.”

“Can I get a closer look?”

He nodded without a word and walked around to stand before her. Bret held out his arms, and she briefly hesitated before she traced the lines. It was a beautiful mosaic of nature, flowers, and trees. Horses danced or reared onto their hind legs, blending into the landscape.

“I've always wanted to get one.”

“Why haven't you?”

“I don't know. Never seemed to have the time and really don't know what I’d want.”

She stopped breathing as he removed his t-shirt. His torso was covered in blond hair that disappeared into the waistband of his jeans. The same type of scenes that matched the ones on his arms covered his ribs, and he turned to expose the designs that continued onto his back. Her hands shook as she raised them to draw her fingertips along the delicate lines and bright color.

“They're beautiful.”

“Thank you. Years of work, but I'm not taking my pants off so you can see the rest.”

“I'd never,” she gasped.

She pushed his chest as he spun back around to face her and he chuckled.

“Maybe you'd like to go with me this summer to see about getting one yourself.”

“You're getting more?”

“I don't know. I'm forty-eight. I think I'm covered enough.”

“What's your age have to do with it?”

“Nothing I guess, but I only have one calf left.”

“Really?”

“Yes, really, want to see?”

She rolled her eyes as he waggled his brows at her. “I appreciate the offer, but I'll, unfortunately, have to decline. You still have your chest left.”

J.M. Dabney is a multi-genre author who writes mainly LGBT romance and fiction. She lives with a constant diverse cast of characters in her head. No matter their size, shape, race, etc. she lives for one purpose alone, and that’s to make sure she does them justice and give them the happily ever after they deserve. J.M. is dysfunction at its finest and she makes sure her characters are a beautiful kaleidoscope of crazy. There is nothing more she wants from telling her stories than to show that no matter the package the characters come in or the damage their pasts have done, that love is love. That normal is never normal and sometimes the so-called broken can still be amazing.

Review

The Prize by Vanessa Fewings

Kat's rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the third book in this trilogy and boy I really got into the story and couldn't put it down. In this last adventure, Zara puts everything on the line, her reputation, job, and her history all for her lover—Tobias Wilder. Keeping his secret has cost her, but hopefully Tobias and Zara can prove her credibility in the art world and her father's reputation, and bring to justice the person responsible for stealing precious artifacts and priceless paintings, They will have to use all their combined experience and knowledge to bring the truth of an unscrupulous mega-rich billionaire and his son to justice.

With Tobias's ingenious inventions, they set off to capture their prize, and hopefully, they will get the chance to spend their future together.

Now what I didn't like about the book, well the blurb on this book has a bit of a spoiler ( I would be a bit fed up to be honest if I had accidentally read this blurb before reading the first book... as it gives the plot twist of book 1 away) But that was it... I loved this book, the pacing, the way the author brings the world of art into the book, which made me want to stop and google the paintings that were mentioned in the book, I wanted to go sit in a museum and sit in front of a painting, to just 'BE' and absorb the art. Hopefully, I will get a chance to do that soon but I will have to make do with my screensaver on my laptop which has a mix of famous art paintings as well as famous photographs to keep my artistic muse satisfied.

I do love reading books that bring you not only great characters you can get invested in, but also expand your imagination, knowledge, and inspiration in the setting of the story. This book did this and I just loved picking it up and wondering where Zara and Tobias would lead me to next.

I have enjoyed all three books But As I mentioned above, try to ignore the blurb of this book, grab book 1 and get reading.

A life she never imagined...and a love she can’t deny

Zara Leighton has risked everything to track down the elusive art thief known as Icon, only to discover him already in her arms: the billionaire tech genius—and her lover—Tobias Wilder. Zara wants to resist Tobias, to deny his fiercely sexy smile and their sizzling chemistry. But instead, she agrees to help him one more time.

Tobias will do anything to protect Zara, but he needs her for one last ultimate job: a job that will clear both their names and grant them a future together... if they can pull it off.

The danger is real. The stakes are unbelievably high. But when it comes to love, there’s only one prize that matters…
