Review: Call Me Yours by Celia Kyle




Rating:  4 stars

Disclosure of Material Connection:  I received this book for review from the author.  I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review.  The opinions I have expressed are my own.  I am posting this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255:  "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising".


Celia does a great job with this book.  While you read, you tend to forget that they’re two males – you just see them as two people who are into each other.  There was one scene where our author had Clover giggle.  I’ve never heard a man giggle before but Celia has left me wanting to hear the sound.  This is when I wish the book had audio.

Celia could have done like other authors and put in lots of sex (because isn’t that what people assume a M/M book is about) but she didn’t do as expected.  The love story is what’s important and the sex is put in right where it belongs.  She also writes so that gender seems to be an afterthought.  You’ll love the scene where Clover meets Mitchell’s mother and brother – just sayin’.

Our author also includes just the right amount of fantasy/paranormal.  Language is graphic but don’t let that bother you – after all it’s told from a man’s perspective.  If you’ve never read any of her work before, this will leave you wanting to read more.  So, stop over to her web site, http://celiakyle.com, and see what other books she has written.

The Wedding Gamble, by Cindi Myers

Preschool teacher Laura Nichols is celebrating her birthday and sister's bachelorette party in Vegas. Being in Sin City is thrilling and she intends on tapping in to her wild side. Laura can't resist the added excitement that comes with saying yes when a hunky man off the street proposes...

FBI agent David Abruzzo has been working undercover as a thug to bring down the Zacolli crime family, but his cover depends on convincing the mob he came to Vegas for a quickie wedding. If they catch on to his plan, his cover's blown, and he's as good as dead. 

Over the course of 48 hours, David and Laura use rollercoasters, glowing condoms, and exotic male dancers to stay alive and bring the crime family down. But it will take more than Lady Luck, one night of passion, and a little Vegas magic to turn their fake marriage into something real.
