Week 26 Reviews: Shadowland, In Vino, Pansies


From Goodreads:
The story of what happened between Niall and Max at the stag night near the beginning of Glitterland, while Ash was off with Darian.

**Author note: In Vino is a Spires Universe extra – but it's not currently available as the entire Spires series has found a new home at Sourcebooks! Ahhh!**

A novella about Jasper, a character from FOR REAL. 

From Goodreads:
From the acclaimed author of BOYFRIEND MATERIAL and HUSBAND MATERIAL comes a deeply emotional romance about finding love when (and where) you least expect it.

Alfie Bell is...fine. He's got a six-figure salary, a penthouse in Canary Wharf, the car he swore he'd buy when he was eighteen, and a bunch of fancy London friends.

It's rough, though, going back to South Shields now that they all know he's a fully paid-up pansy. It's the last place he's expecting to pull. But Fen's gorgeous, with his pink-tipped hair and hipster glasses, full of the sort of courage Alfie's never had. It should be a one-night thing, but Alfie hasn't met anyone like Fen before.

Except he has. At school, when Alfie was everything he was supposed to be, and Fen was the stubborn little gay boy who wouldn't keep his head down. And now it's a proper Fen might have slept with Alfie, but he'll probably never forgive him, and Fen's got all this other stuff going on anyway, with his mam and her flower shop and the life he left down south.

Alfie just wants to make it right. But how can he, when all they've got in common is the nowhere town they both ran away from.

This dynamic, emotional LGBTQIA+ romance contains never-before-seen content and exclusive bonus material.
