The sequel of Goldilocks and His Three Bears is a very long one, and it's like two books in one. In the first part Brian (alias Goldilocks) learns how to settle in this new relationship of him: Paul (alias Daddy Bear) is again far from hom for works, six months of leave and Brian, who is studying at College, can't have the chance to be with him. So he is at home with Jim (alias Momma Bear), who also he is far from his beloved, Scott (alias Teddy Bear), travelling with his truck in the north. Brian behaves badly to call attention to him and Jim is not sure to be the one to properly castigate him. On the other hand Scott is sulking, believing that he is not an important piece in the puzzle of their relationship, and so also him behaves very badly. Paul with Brian, and Jim with Scott will have to tight the leash on this two bottom brats.

In the second part of the book, Scott takes home Joshua, like a child could take home a stray dog. Joshua is a young and frightened guy, needing a master figure in his life. But Paul and Jim are not the right person to do that, they have their plate full with their two brats. Luckily Paul meets an old friend, Freddie, a top without a domestic relationship in this moment.

As the previous one, this book is a funny romp: there is a lot of sex, but it's always a very relaxing and funny type of sex; even when it arrives to some pretty kinky and heavy erotic stuff, the description is always more light and funny, than angst. I'm not against some kinky stuff, here and there, but sometime, reading certain books, it's like reading an "how to do" books, full of clinical details that risk to ruin all the romanticism of the story. In this case, A.M. Riley gives us all the necessary inputs to understand what it's happening, but doesn't indulge in the description, preferring a light tone.

Of all the characters, the lion share is taken by the bottoms. Brian, as in the previous book, has a very prominently role in the first part of the book, and instead Scott, who really didn't shine before, in the second part of the book is the incontrastated hero. Seeing the two brats conspiring and involving also Joshua in their plans, allows the reader to fully understand who are the real puppeteers in this strange multipartner relationship.

of my new layout? I'm a bit of an ego, am I not? But well, other than an aesthetic opinion, I'd like also to know if it's clear and if you all see it without problem.

This is really only a little scene, less than 15 pages, but it's an historical one, so quite a rarity. It's setting in the imperial Japan, I'm not very expert of that part of history, but giving the few details, I can suppose a pre-industrial era.

Suki is a young samurai and from years he almost worships Bashuro, his commander. But Bashuro was in a manlove relationship with another samurai, and Suki always took his love a secret. But now Bashuro's lover left the man to marry, and Bashuro is searching another companion. In what it seems almost a lover fair, Suki "applies" for the role, and Bashuro puts on test the man.

Maybe Suki is a bit too eager to please, but he has loved Bashuro in the last thirteen years and he doesn't want to waste his chance with the man.

There is nothing more, really, but the use of some particular words helps the reader to be involved in the feeling and setting of the story. Sedonia Guillone is not new in this terrain, I remember she told a similar story also in His Beautiful Samurai, when she described the love of Toshi's ancestor.
