Take Me Out by Gabrina Garza

Please please, Amber Allure, could you use better cover? My artistic eyes cry when I see some of your cove... Above all cause sometime the story is worthy.

Ty and Jaegar (what all american name!) play for the baseball professional league. Ty is on the team since 4 years now and Jaegar is the new guy, arrives only for one week to substitute the injured rommies of Ty. And the first night Ty has the chance to see Jae in all the glory mother nature has given him and he is struck. Ty is gay but he has never open admitted it with the team; only his fake girlfriend, London, knows that and she willing plays the role for him. But now Ty has met a man who makes him desire to live openly his life, a man he wants to go out in the daylight and not hide in the dark room of some hotel.

The story is brief but enjoyable. The life of the pro baseball players of a not so big team is decipted with realism: cheap hotel, bus smells of sweat, dirty lockroom... and the fear to look for too long to a playmate.

Ty and Jae are handsome but normal characters. They don't live in the glamour of the professionals: Ty is thinking to leave at the end of the season and Jae maybe will not have no more a contract after this one. They are not rich and famous and distant, they are the boys next door who want a live together: a barbecue, some friends around them and a house to share.

A Pirate's Primer by Jill Knowles

Adam is a crippled man, son of an evil man who betrays the sacred oath that pirates make to the Goddess of Sea. And now the Goddess has sent her man, Captain Fox, to take hand of the matter. And Adam wants to help Jaden, cause he has read about him and his ghostly ship. And Jaden makes a pact with Adam: he will teach to the crew how to write and read and Jaden will teach to Adam how to love.

Well, the story is pretty simple and without much surprise. Jaden is not an handsome evil like some pirates I have read, instead he has an aurea of childness in him. He is gentle and friendly, he takes care of Adam. And Adam is so open and eager of love, he put no reserve when he choose to give himself to a ghost and to love a man (something he declares never has done and never has imagined was possible).

Actually it's an enjoyable reading, but maybe Jill Knowles has put not enough meat in the paranormal/horror dish (even if I'm not fond of the horror itself); and then I like a lot my pirate a little too rough and a lot more forceful... Not much historical details: I really can understand in what period it was setting, maybe after the Napoleonic War? they speak of an eight years war and Jaden is 250 years old and he was a pirate... But if you want some hot love in a bunk, it's your novel.
