Football Sundae

Blurb
Football never tasted this sweet. 
Tanner, the hunky college football star, is home for the summer. Billy, the budding dessert chef, is about to have his hot-fudge-glazed world flipped upside-down. Get ready for the "sweetest" romance you've ever tasted. 
Contains hot man-on-man action, a whole lotta southern small town sass, and ice cream. 
This is a "sweet & steamy" male/male romance with humor, an HEA, and NO cheating.
BONUS CONTENT: Your special Kindle edition also comes with TWO complimentary male/male stories! After you read Football Sundae, you can enjoy two novellas from the Brazen Boys series: "Dog Tags" and "Slippery When Wet"
My Review
This book was packed with a lot of first for me including my first read by Daryl Banner and my first m/m read as well. I will admit I was not sure if it would be my cup of tea, but the day I cracked this book open I was in need of something sweet, good, and true. I found it in this author's words as he brought Billy and Tucker's story to life with every turn of the page. Not to mention it brought a strong desire to break my diet and enjoy a bowl full of yummy ice cream as well. I truly look forward to reading more from Daryl Banner!! Because this was a definate five star read!
About the Author
Daryl Banner is an author and composer who graduated from the University of Houston with a degree in Theatre and Psychology. He writes new adult romance, M/M romance, post-apocalyptic fantasy, and dystopian. He is most inspired by the smart and unlikely hero, but urges you (the reader) not to fall in love with them; they may deceive you with their innocence. 
Interesting tidbits: Daryl is also an obsessive piano player, video game enthusiast, and occasional actor. He's been remixing video game music for over fifteen years, and is a passionate Final Fantasy and Nintendo fan. You can feed your ears with many of his remixes (as well as his original music) on his YouTube page.
He also composes original soundtracks that accompany his books and series. You can listen to and download them on Bandcamp.

New Release: The Royal Pain by Erin Hayes

Purchase Links Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon CA | Amazon AU
Billionaire Romance



Blurb:
As the crown prince of Dubreva, Phillip lived a life without regrets. Until now. 
Disgraced and humiliated by his very public break-up with his ex- fiancĂ©e, Phillip just wants to move on with his life as quietly as a billionaire prince can. 
He can't avoid his duties to his people--but he never expected to be thrown into the path of a beautiful CEO who's even more famous than he is. And richer. Not to mention, the media empire she built from the ground up is watching his every move. 
Lucky for him, she's not at all interested in helping him find redemption. Then again, Phillip may be falling for her. If only she would stop being such a royal pain.

My Review

Much like a Phoenix, something strong and powerful can rise from the ashes. I very much enjoyed reading Phillip and Jessica's story. Even the rich and royal make mistakes. Traveling from page to page watching these characters grow and over come was astonishing. Well rounded characters and an intriguing plot has me secretly hoping they'll be more in this world. It'll be nice to hear how Henry is healing!
