Blurb:

They say a guy can never be too hung. Well, Harold Jacobs doesn’t know who they are, but they’re wrong. Socially awkward for as long as he can remember, Harold feels his enormous package is just one more thing to be embarrassed about. Especially once hunky and popular Owen McKenzie notices it in the showers.

Owen knows he’s bi, but he keeps that secret close to his chest. He likes Harold, and wants to help him shed his dorky image and maybe even find a boyfriend. Still, Owen can’t stop obsessing about Harold’s equipment. And as much as he doesn’t want to flip-flop on his sexuality, Owen does want to test-drive what Harold has between his legs.

Their friendship erupts into full-blown lust. But can Owen accept the loss of his golden-child status and be Harold’s boyfriend? And can Harold outgrow his insecurity in time to keep the man he loves?

My review:

I don't think I've ever wanted to reach through my iPad and slap a character so much as I did with Owen. Talk about daft. Harold is the nice boy we all want to see fall in love and Owen is the sexy guy who doesn't deserve Harold. 

College is all about new experiences and finding unexplored avenues but when Owen runs into Harold, there is more than just curiosity about the unknown. There is a spark of attraction between them but Harold is embarrassed about his over sized equipment.  

All throughout this book, Owen made me want to scream with frustration and I really wanted to tell Harold he could do better. But Ms. Harris wrote a sweet and adorable love story here and at the end, all I could do was smile and wish them both a Happily Ever After. 

I highly recommend this book for readers who like barely legal college students and a quirky, not so lovable straight jock turned gay paired with an absolutely adorable geek with big cocks.

On this tour, Daisy will be awarding a large-size dildo, a scented penis candle, as well as a $20 gift certificate to the winner’s choice of Barnes and Noble or Amazon to a randomly drawn commenter during the tour. (WOO HOO!)  To follow the tour:

Review: As Advertised by Jaime Samms

As Advertised is a sweet romance with a great fire between the main characters. They are own their paths when their universes collide at a time that may not be the most convenient but is exactly what they need.

There was something very special about the magic Steven and Tyler created on their own as the book started, creating great backgrounds as Ms. Samms introduced to each character in turn. The book is character driven and focuses on the relationship along with the friendships around the characters.

This book was a slow burn, the chemistry between Steven and Tyler building as they moved through their dramas with exes and hidden pasts. If you are looking for a great drama you can really sink your teeth into, with a splash of hot romance, pick this one up.

Highly Recommended.

BLURB:

Tyler’s life perked up when he met Jake. So what if long-time friend Marty can’t stand him and his landlady has no use for his new beau. Tyler’s determined not to see the dark side of his lover. It’s his own fault for believing people don’t go around keeping secrets and lying.

Tyler should know better.  He’s an ad executive.  He knows the packaging is what sells, and Jake is quite a package.  His lover is no slouch when it comes to false advertising, either, and when Tyler finds out the truth, it hurts.  Weathering Jake’s lies and secrets gets easier with the help of new friends, Libby and Steven. In fact, Tyler figures that maybe a lot of things would get easier with Steven.

Tyler should have known better.  Not even someone as seemingly perfect as Steven Jessop is completely as advertised.

This time, though, Tyler has to make a decision. After all, sometimes, even if what you see is not what you get, what Tyler’s uncovered in Steven might just be what he’s always wanted.

Excerpt:

First Kiss

Steven turned to face him and placed his hands on Tyler’s hips. “I had a fantastic night, Tyler.”

Tyler nodded, his butterflies back and brushing delicate, frenetic wings in his throat. Swallowing hard, he moved a step closer. “Me too.”

Steven’s lips, soft and firm on his, sent the butterflies up in a flash of heat, and he opened his mouth to the tongue that flicked against his lower lip. The contact was all too brief. In a moment, Steven was pulling away, stepping back and dropping his arms. “Can I call you?”

Tyler still struggled to gather his spinning wits. “Uh— sure. Yes.”

Steven’s face lit with an expression of pleasure that sent a thread of desire weaving through Tyler.

“Good.” He ran a thumb over Tyler’s close-cropped goatee. The smile slanted a fraction to one side. “I kind of like the feel of this. I imagined I would.”

“Thank you.” The idea Steven had imagined kissing him was even more thrilling than the compliment.

Steven put his hand on the door, but didn’t pull it open right away. “Do you need a cab? I can have Paul call one for you.” He indicated the man behind the counter on the other side of the glass.

“No, thank you.” Tyler found his manners beneath the smoldering nerves and took a few backward steps toward the street. “It’s nice. I can walk.”

“Be careful.” A delicate line delved between Steven’s brows.

“I will.” Tyler raised a hand and turned to walk away. He would have expected disappointment at being left on the street, but Steven stood at the door and watched him walk off, waiting until he reached the corner to wave a final goodbye.

He wasn’t being dismissed, then, and that put the butterflies to rest for good.
