Bathhouse Beasts #4

The Werebear's Swing

Rate this book
A late night delivery. A bathhouse full of secrets. One massive werebear who changes everything…

Johnny’s just trying to survive another long shift delivering pizzas when his last stop takes him somewhere he never expected—a hidden downtown bathhouse. Tired, broke, and ready to quit, he doesn’t realize his entire world is about to shift.

Because waiting inside is Ferguson. Seven feet of fur, muscle, and raw magnetism. A werebear with a commanding presence, a wicked smile, and an offer Johnny can’t refuse.

What begins as a simple delivery turns into a night of heat, surrender, and discovery. Behind the bathhouse doors are men and monsters of every kind, gathered to indulge their deepest desires. And at the center of it all is Ferguson—the kind of shifter who doesn’t just take control, but shows Johnny how good it feels to finally let go.

Steamy, bold, and emotionally charged, Werebear’s Swing is a gay paranormal romance about finding escape in the most unexpected place—and realizing sometimes the monster you meet in the dark is exactly the man you’ve been waiting for.

I didn't think this one could live up to Book 1 with the werewolf, but I was pleasantly surprised.

I was expecting a very commanding BDSM alpha bear character, which frankly would have been a fine thing in this book, but Blake wrote this one differently and I liked how it deviated from the expected stereotype I had in my head.

I would love to see some of these small short stories expanded out later either with the same duo or with the monster. I think the characters overall are pretty good for short stories.

The Swing

I was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed this erotic short. Yes, it was hot AF but there was also a great deal of tenderness and empathy that is often missing in these types of works. I very much connected with the feelings of exhaustion and emptiness that Johnny was carrying and the werebear, Ferguson, was a sweet and tender instructor.
I'm definitely a fan of this author and I look forward to reading some of the other volumes of this series.

My reviews are my own. If you liked this book, I’m glad you enjoyed it. If not, I respect your opinion. This is merely my opinion, so let's keep it courteous. My review is honest and voluntary.

This is tagged as romance, but it is not. It is a simple steamy meet-up. So if you are up for a short, steamy quickie, this is the right choice for you.

On to my next adventure, Happy Readings!!!

I feel like this book is very similar to the other previous three. I don't really feel that there is a difference in writing. The characters are different but the descriptions of the spicy scenes are the same or very similar. I don't think I will continue with the rest of the series but I may return to it later on.

I’d read the other ones that came before it in this series, so I figured why not? The relationship in this one was interesting. (I mean they all have been so far …) I think it was the ending once again that sealed the deal for me.

These stories are the best….

I’ve read many of these stories and really have enjoyed them. I don’t typically write reviews, but I swear I wish these were fully flushed out books. They would make for great reading. Would love to know more about that happened in the future

A Guide to New Experiences

The monster in this story gives a reminder, the biggest people can be some of the gentlest. The werebear may have looked intimidating, but he gave such great care and may have found something more.

Johnny has been working too hard . . .

Without giving himself some playtime . . . Well it seems as if Ferguson's Pizza order came at the perfect time 😏😜

I actually was not the biggest fan of how inexperienced the MC is, and I think the story does leave you wanting more when it doesn’t explore the romantic/non sexual part of the story.

big kinky werebear is surprisingly sweet <3

tbh i kind of wish these were all just put into one book as a collection of shorts rather than their own separate entities. ~40 pages per couple aren’t even long enough to be considered a novella imo
