Hearts and Flour

Reviews by the Wicked Reads Review Team

Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
This may be a short read, but it packs in a lot of story. I was completely invested in the outcome and was so happy with how they managed to resolve their differences. I felt it worked brilliantly, as Micah came to terms with why he had the views he did, and whether there was a time to be a little less rigid with his rules.

So many lovely touches, and fun, flirty, and sweet moments. And then some sad, despairing, and self-sacrificing ones. As I say, a whole great big romance, in a very short and sweet package. Thank you, Ms. Lain.

REVIEW BY TRACY @ Kimmers' Erotic Book Banter: http://bit.ly/2BubwhB

I have to say Tara Lain has always been a favorite author of mine and this little novelette, 'Hearts and Flour', has all the best ingredients for a cute and light romance. I was so excited to get a chance to read this book. It is a second edition, the first edition was published by Etopia Press in 2013, and I absolutely love the new cover by Reese Dante.

Micah is passionate about food. Raw, organic food that is. He owns a popular vegan restaurant in Laguna Beach. Quentin is a Southern gentlemen who owns a cupcake bakery not too far from Micah’s restaurant. This may be a recipe for disaster.

Micah and Quentin meet at an anti-Valentine’s Day party thrown by a good friend of Micah’s. After walking in on his boyfriend with another man, Micah decides he’s got nothing to lose and accepts the invitation.

Quentin likes to dress up in women’s clothes. He rarely gets the chance to so he heads to the party dressed as “Queen”.

I absolutely love stories that involve cross-dressing. Queen doesn’t like labels, he’s just a guy who enjoys dressing up in women’s clothes once in a while. Micah takes one look at Queen and it’s lust at first sight. They find an empty room at the party and have one of the hottest hookups.

Author Tara Lain certainly knows her way around a sex scene. These men’s chemistry is off the charts hot and there is no way Micah is ready to call it a night. He leaves the party with Queen’s phone number and his world solidly rocked!

For such a short book there’s a lot going on: Quentin has a few secrets, Micah’s ex causes some drama and it’s all written with humor, sass and lots of sex. Tara Lain has a knack for writing great characters and Micah and Quentin are amazing. You definitely won’t be disappointed with 'Hearts and Flour'.
