Kimberly Gardner challenged my feelings over the question “How soon is too soon?” The answer,
I suppose depends on the individuals involved. I found the two men’s battle with their feelings heart rending and ultimately, uplifting.”

The anthology I

m in along with my friends Jet Mykles and Charlie Cochrane, Encore! Encore!, just got a new review. It got four kisses from Lisa at Michele and Jeff’s review blog.

Lisa called the antho a “great read” and had lots of nice things to say about all three stories. About my story His Leading Man she said,

”
I was entirely invested in the outcome of the challenges these two wonderful characters faced. The plot was perfectly paced, keeping me turning pages in earnest in hopes of finding a happy ending. This was a story of sacrifice, of overcoming obstacles, and of realizing what will ultimately bring true joy and satisfaction to life.”

I got a very nice review for my novel, Bound To Please from Christina at Romance Junkies.

She says in part, “Ms. Gardner has created three very distinctive and fascinating heroes. I enjoyed getting to know them. Each man brings unique strengths to the relationship. Benny, Rain, and Jason may be very different but they work well together. Things aren’t always easy between them but as they work together to overcome their problems they grow closer. I also liked the way that all three of them relate to each other individually. Benny has strong feelings for both Jason and Rain and vice versa. Their relationship is complex and very believable. BOUND TO PLEASE by Kimberly Gardner is a compelling and satisfying BDSM romance.”

Last week I got a lovely review for Bound To Please from Elisa Rolle. I had the pleasure of meeting Elisa a couple years ago in SF and she is as lovely in person as she seems in cyberspace. Her reviews are always thoughtful and gracious and this one is no exception. She says in part,

“I like all the characters, but for sure the boys, Benny and Rain, are the best; Jason is good but he fades on the background when the boys are around, something that is strange considering he is the Dom. Benny and Rain, purple and blue hair, are like boys at play, I have always the feeling to hear someone laughing when they are in a room. Jason is not their puppeteer, he is the one who is fallen in their net; I have this image of Benny and Rain building a net with colourful rope, and Jason totally caught in the middle.

There is a lot of sex, some of it also quite extreme, but above all I have this feeling of esthetical beauty: each scene is like a carefully planned painting, with full and deep colour, it’s a very visual feeling.”

If you’re looking for an excellent example of a m/m/m ménage book and like BDSM, then you can’t go wrong with this book. I could barely stand to put it down and thoroughly enjoyed reading it. Highly recommended with a grade of ‘Excellent’.”

There is a very nice review posted over at Jessewave’s blog for our brand new anthology Encore! Encore! Jenre is very complimentary about all three stories and gives the antho as a whole 4.5 stars. About my story, His Leading Man, she says in part,

“One thing I particularly liked about this story is the way that David’s character is developed from the previous story. Although we get both hero’s point of view, there is just as much page time devoted to David than the flasher and more outgoing Kieran. This meant that I really felt like I got to know David, to understand his reasons for acting the way that he does and his remorse and sadness over the break-up between him and Kieran.”
