liz blue ~ paperback reader

I read 2 of these before and rated separately.
Mark and Tony by L.B. Gregg is a 3 star, eh kind of read.
Bending the Iron by Libby Drew is 5 stars and all the wonderful writing and warmth.

I just read the final 2 in the collection. Neither was as WHOA GREAT as Bending the Iron, but I liked each more than Mark and Tony.

Icecapade by Josh Lanyon is short. Shorter than it should be probably. It has the unresolved sort of thing happening that I love/hate about Lanyon books. I liked Noel and Robert, but the story was only barely developed.

First Time, Forever by KC Burn is a good story about a couple finding their way through the approach of middle age and empty nest syndrome. It's sweet, and the characters are lovely.
