AND CALL ME by Will Okati
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-2991

“This is such an interesting story duet. This is actually like two stories with the first being Call Me In The Morning and the second Call Me In The Evening. Eli and Zane are doctors in the same hospital and also spend time together after work. Eli a former cop divorced switched to medicine and loves it. Everyone thinks they are a couple unfortunately so one kiss is the test. Very fun story, absolutely loved it.”

— 5 Stars from StarDragon, Amazon Review

“This was a really sweet story, really enjoyed reading about Zane and Eli.”

— 4 Stars from Kjnrose, Amazon Review

“Excellent book! Well written. The characters are very relatable and fun to get to know. I will be watching for more books from Will Okati.”

— 5 Stars from Kenneth Cameron, Amazon Review

“I…was so enchanted by the very slow burn of their courtship. They were truly the best of friends and each other’s favorite person. They were meant, it just took them awhile to realize that they were meant to be more than friends. This pair are slow learners at times and the second book in the duet continues their learning curve on their way to settling into their long and loving future.”

— 5 Stars from Liese H., Kobo Review

“Eli and Zane are friends and work colleagues. They spend so much time together friends and acquaintances think they are together as a couple. Zane challenges Eli to a kiss and they both learn a few unexpected truths. Fun story, about stepping out of the comfortable box and exploring unexpected pleasures. Nicely done.”

— 5 Stars from C.B., Barnes & Noble Review

“The characters were so very appealing and likable and perfectly steamy together. Plot was intriguing and well paced. World building was solidly drawn and impressive. Thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend.”

— 5 Stars from Itsthejo, Amazon Review

“This is a wonderful story of finding the right love later in life, of friendship turning to love and negotiating through the issues that might come from the past. There’s also a very sweet story with supporting characters Taye and Richie. So lovely.”

— 5 Stars from Phoenixjo, Amazon Review

“An enjoyable friends-to-lovers story with just the right mix of heat and heart. The teasing bet that kicks everything off is a kiss to prove there’s no chemistry which was a fun setup, and unsurprisingly, the spark between Eli and Zane is immediate and convincing. What I appreciated most is that they’re not twenty-somethings fumbling through first love. They’re older, established, and carrying real baggage. The romance isn’t effortless, but they actively choose to work on it, which made it feel grounded. If you like mature main characters, workplace dynamics, and a friends-to-lovers arc with solid emotional payoff, this is a satisfying contemporary read.”

BEDTIME STORIES by Shelby Morgen, Marteeka Karland, Anne Kane, Lena Austin
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-2205

“…this book clearly has both a proofreader and an editor! The first story reminded me a bit of some of Anne McCaffery’s sci-fi short stories. I remember reading that she was sort of aiming for soft-core with Thorns on Barevi (which became the Freedom series of novels much later) and I think she’d approve of Troll’s Blog.”

— 4 Stars from GenevieveReads, Goodreads Review

ENEMIES WITH BENEFITS by Wanda Violet O.
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3841

“This short story was a very enjoyable spicy read. One of the things I appreciated was that Elias showed respect for Mira at every point in their interactions, and neither Mira nor Elias were one dimensional characters. In fact, I was looking forward to the next chapter when it ended. Alas, I had forgotten it was less than 50 pages, but that’s just a sign of how well written it was.”

— 5 Stars from Genevieve, Goodreads Review

“Respect, heat and spice.”

ESSENCE (SPLINTERED BLOODLINES 3) by Mychael Black
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3813

“Any time I am lucky enough to see that there is a new book out by Mychael Black, I don’t walk but run to get the chance to read it. This story fulfills my need for a BDSM vampire romance story. I loved Bobby & Deacon’s story hardcore.”

— 4 Stars from N M Harvey, Amazon Review

“This is the love story of Kane and Jade….neither of who were looking for romantic entanglements….but fate had other plans. This is another story showing [the author] at her best, writing about drama, suspense, a damsel in distress and a cut-wearing hero at his best. Enjoy!”

JAG (KISS OF DEATH MC 11) by Marteeka Karland
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3839

“I love Jag and Ada together. I really enjoyed this one especially since it gives us more information on Kiss of Death MC. The cherry on the stop is we get to see characters from the original MC Bones. Marteeka really gives us a wide variety of heroines in her books from all different backgrounds, and the strong men who love them no matter the background they come from.”

— 5 Stars from AnotherDayInParadise, Amazon Review

— 5 Stars from Latasha, Amazon Review

“A captivating tale of intensity, suspense, intrigue and heartwarming moments that took my warmed my heart. Jag and Ada are two people who were meant to be together. They understand, respect and care for one another which is simply breathtaking. They proved that no matter where you come from, what you did in your past or what other people think of you there is always someone that will love you through it all. I absolutely loved going on this adventure with them. Fantastic story!”

— 5 Stars from A. Fernandez, Amazon Review

“Great story! Jag was a glimpse into the past of Kiss of Death… and Ada is in the pasts sights. We get to see the men from Bones who come to help deal with a rat that should have stayed in his hole.”

— 5 Stars from Melissa, Amazon Review

“Ripper of a book! From the very beginning, this is one of those stories you just thoroughly enjoy—wonderfully written with brilliant, continued world-building. Jag and Ada have chemistry from the start. I’m loving this series, and as the story unfolds, it keeps getting better with each book. The pacing is well-balanced, keeping you on your toes with twists and turns, while the chemistry between the characters is absolutely fire—you just want to keep reading. I was sad to finish this book only because I wanted it to go on and on, but I’m always thrilled to read Marteeka’s work. I also loved the return of some familiar characters, which keeps the story fresh and the world-building rich and immersive.”

— 5 Stars from Alibas, Barnes & Noble Review

SPIRIT BEAR CONSPIRACY (BROTHERHOOD OF THE WILD 1) by Anne Kane
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3824

“…it was an absolutely delightful journey with ups and downs but mostly the promise of building something more.”

— 5 Stars from Bren, Apple Bookstore Review

STARGAZERS by Anne Kane
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-2001

“The stories are short, with quite the sizzle. Kidnapping, runaways and pirates are the common theme. The FMCs are determined, feisty and perfectly capable to stand up to the hot (Very hot!) MMC’s. There’s some edge of seat adventuring, and a strong desire to be free in the plotlines. Fan yourself smexyness. It’s a fun ride across the universe.”

— 5 Stars from JenWatt, Amazon Review

“This collection takes you on quite the adventure through space. Each story stands alone, but was enjoyable to find them together. Entertaining storylines and characters.”

— 5 Stars from Gail Burns, Amazon Review

“The characters are layered and believable, and the romantic payoff feels completely earned. The writing is confident, the dialogue sharp, and the pacing keeps you turning pages. If you enjoy romance with depth, heart, and genuine emotional impact, this is a wonderful read.”

— 5 Stars from Marilyn, Amazon (UK) Review

“Each story is spicy, with some action, and they’re fast-paced and I really enjoyed reading them.”

— 4 Stars from Tima, Kobo Review

“Stargazers was a very interesting read. The combination of the different characters, all unique in their own way and the amazing world building stand out the most. The storyline is interesting and fast paced. The interactions between the several characters are nicely worked out, as are the romantic tension and erotic scenes. I’ve very much enjoyed reading this book!”

— 5 Stars from Stefanie Vee, Kobo Review

“The characters are easy to enjoy because each pairing has its own energy: protective heroes, strong heroines, reluctant alliances turning into trust, and attraction forming during high-stakes situations. The pacing keeps the stories moving, while the mythology behind the Stargazers adds depth beyond typical space romance.”

— 4 Stars from Bcluna, Barnes & Noble Review

“This was a fab collection of space adventures that, while each is a stand alone, are all set in the same universe with common themes. Stargazers are rare witches that have a telepathic ability to sense and harness the energy of the universe. This makes them a sought-after prize by pirates, governments and others to use their skills… Expect to get caught up in these fast paced, high spice romances that showcase strong heroines and protective heroes. Good fun!”

— 5 Stars from LBing, Barnes & Noble Review

TAKEN BY THE LADY OF THE LAKE (TAKEN 12) by Megan Slayer
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3831

“…I have not read any of the previous books. Now I wish that I had. I really enjoyed getting to know Sawyer and Amanda. This storyline was unlike anything I’ve ever read before, and that’s what made it so enjoyable for me.”

— 4 Stars from MissEcstasy, Kobo Review

“This is a good and slightly dark story. It is magical and a paranormal read with romance and steam. This is the twelfth story in the series but can be read as a stand alone read. The story is about Sawyer and Amanda, the lady of the lake. This is such a good read from beginning to end. It is fast pace and fairly quick to read. So worth it and very intriguing. I love the characters!”

— 4 Stars from Mary, Goodreads Review
