M/M Romances with a Sexy Trope
What I call a 'sexy trope' is a well-used plot hook that leads two men to end up having sex--hypothermia, two detectives pretending to be a gay couple for a case, stuck in a closet, etc. Typically the sex is very hot. Here're my favorites for 2013 (that aren't on other lists):
The Art of Touch by Dominique Frost – A tough, acerbic business guy reluctantly falls for his annoyingly perky masseuse. Funny and sexy.
Not His Kiss To Take by Finn Marlowe – I have a thing for medical kink and this book is the best I’ve found. An agoraphobic doctor takes in an abused young straight man. Very kinky and sexy.
Two Man Team by Jet Mykles – Two friends start having threeways with women, which turn into twoways by themselves. Sexy friends-to-lovers , gfy story.
M/M Romances with BDSM themes
I'm not a big fan of heavy BDSM as the main plot of a book, but there are some books that combine it with other elements and/or do it so well I have to love them. Here're my favorites from 2013.
Dirty Laundry by Heidi Cullinan – Adam is a bookish twink with OCD. He meets Denver, a big, buff bouncer. Adam finds relief in surrendering to Denver’s control.
His Roomate’s Pleasure by Lana McGregor – A virginal gay college student comes across his roommate’s porn stash and is fascinated by his first glimpse of BDSM. The two begin to experiment together.
Nowhere Ranch by Heidi Cullinan – A young man who picks up some work at a ranch runs into his foreman at a gay bar and they start playing together. This book is both kinky (as in hot) and sweet.
Training Season by Leta Blake – A flamboyant figure skater spends a winter in Montana and falls in love with a rancher. Loved the gorgeous character of Mattie Marcus and the BDSM sex is very hot.
