Finding home, finding family...finding love! Wonderful story where we can see and enjoy in @kbois beginnings as author. Characters, ideas and worlds which are going to explode out of imagination of one of the most beloved authors at GA in her capital work - A hybrid journey, can be recognized in her first story. Soulmates - latter Mates; amazing, strong and powerful mothers; supportive families; charming children; witty humor; dogs - of course...and lovers, lovers 'til death do us part'.

@kbois is famous for her cliffs (although this is not one of that stories) but seems to me that she is not enough praised as one of the best smut writers at GA! She writes some of the best, most romantic, most passionate...kinky...very, very hot sex scenes!!! Although she knows the exact measure not to jump into cheap pornography, reading her characters making love is going to make you aroused for sure!

Response from the author:

Thanks!

I love looking back on this story. It shows me how far I've come. Plus, they're some of my favorite characters!

This is a fantastic page turner, made all the more amazing since it's the first novel by @kbois.  You will not regret reading this romance between two appealing and well-written leads and some wonderful side characters.  

Response from the author:

Thanks for being there since the very beginning!

A really enjoyable story. It grabs you from the start and takes you along on a great ride - even on a classic Indian! Thank you for writing it, and especially for bravely sharing it with an audience that can sometimes by very picky. I'm looking forward to continuing to read your stories.

Response from the author:

Thanks Tim!

Some readers might be picky, but overall it makes me think twice (sometimes). But then again... when a character tells you something, there are times when you just go with it!

Thanks for reading!

A drifter with a mysterious past finds himself broken down in a random town. Through a few encounters, he goes to a tattoo shop. There stands a man of mystery.

This is a lovable romance with brilliantly crafted characters. If a reader does not fall for, resonate with, or sympathize with any of them, you might be reading upside down. A worthy binge, a heart-warming relationship, and possibly the most chaotic character ever awaits you.

Response from the author:

Thank you!

It's been fun revisiting this story through fresh eyes. I loved the comments along the way.

And yes, a certain character is..., well, quite a character!

This is the story of Lex, a guy who has been wandering around for far to long. His motorbike breaks down and this leads him to a chance encounter with Lee, a talented tattoo artist. 

With Lee's help Lex whilst covering up his past he his able to uncover his future. This isn't an easy journey for Lex or Ian. We join these guys on there fantastic journey as they peel back the many layers of there past. We meet old friends, new friends and family during this journey to uncover Lex's future.

A fantastic story, that is realistic and gritty. Highly recommend as a good read.

Response from the author:

Thanks chris! I'm glad you enjoyed the story. Your comments mean a lot to me!

Ok, so as anyone who reads my reviews can tell you, I am a sucker for the realistic, gritty stories about the every day struggles of people who are, for lack of a better word, broken, in some way. I loved this story, start to finish. Loved it. Thank you for sharing it with us, and, uh, more please!

Response from the author:

Thank you! Lex and Ian are special and with this being my first attempt at writing I'm happy with how it worked out.
