Status Updates From Tru Smoke (Ember Peak, #1)

// I absolutely hate it when an author destroys a book simply to sate her own desires in terms of where she wants the story to go! I absolutely hate when an author takes a book in a direction that is ridiculously absurd and contrived just for the sake of angst and drama ... just for the sake of fulfilling her own plot fantasies! If this author obliterates/destroys this book with contrived bullshit, I’ll be pissed!!

// We are off to such a great start, but since I’m seeing LOTS of negative reviews about the sister, the bullshit time jumps, and what I can sense is ludicrous martyrdom (which is annoying as fuck), all I can do is hope this book doesn’t dangle the proverbial carrot and then crash and burn, obliterating/destroying the book!! Book and author, please don’t puss me off and suck!!!

// Jesus ... authors can learn a thing or two about writing VERY EXPLICIT M/M sex scenes, because this woman is the fucking queen!!!

// “His eyes were wide, almost panicky. When Jones took something seriously, he threw his big heart, his big brain, and his big reservoir of enthusiasm into it. This past week I’d learned that he took fucking very, very seriously. Another thing to love him for. I smiled up at him, letting my eyes drink him down.”

~ 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰!!

// “I cupped this perfection in my palms—nope, not thinking about how this was the last time I’d get to do this—and exhaled as he wiggled between my spread legs, introducing his morning wood to my hard-on. As usual, our cocks were happy as hell about being reunited, greeting each other with damp, hot, needy kisses.”

~ That description though 🥰🥰🥰!!

// “My first horse had been a sharp little chestnut with a coat that had turned to flame in the sun. So pretty it had made my eyes hurt. Jones’s hair was the exact same color.
His fingers tightened suddenly on my ribcage and I prepared myself to get hit with a dose of pure autumn sky.”

~ Beautiful writing!!

// “The thick vein under his shaft began to pulse against my tongue, and I pulled back, keeping my mouth open, holding his length steady as he hit my lips, my tongue, my chin with gorgeous white ropes of good stuff. “Mmm.” I closed my eyes and licked my lips, concentrating on his flavor as I slowly stroked his bucking dick through its last spurts of happiness.”

~ Off to a great start; so well written!!

// “This private, elemental part of Tru, all bold as hell and unapologetic as it jutted out from his expensive clothes.
...
I wasn’t ashamed to admit that I was totally in love with his cock—the thick, veiny length of it, the broad head, the defined ridges of his glans and his slit. His taste, his scent, the sight of the heavy balls and the crisp blond curls at his base.”

~ 🔥🔥🔥!!

“What?” I asked. He was still laughing. “You. Scowling at your dick.” “I was just giving it a pep talk.” “Honey, none of your appendages need pep talks. Especially that one.”
