Shifts End By A. R. Barley
Genre: Contemporary Romantic Suspense, GLBTQ, MM
Released: August 6, 2018
Publisher: Carina Press
Series: Smoke & Bullets, Book 3
With a couple failed marriages under his belt, Captain Jack Tracey knows how tough it is to balance a personal life with his job. But nothing in his long career has prepared him for the moment Diesel Evers walks into his firehouse. Sure, Jack’s contended with cocky young recruits before, but this seriously hot hotshot rookie is poised to crash and burn. With early retirement in sight, Jack can’t afford to get involved with a subordinate.
Having transferred to Jack’s house after a disastrous relationship, Diesel isn’t looking for another commitment. But that doesn’t mean he can’t have a little fun with his sexy silver fox of a new boss. Sometimes you have to bend the rules a bit…or shatter them completely.
With an unidentified saboteur endangering his squad, Jack doesn’t want to draw any more heat, but Diesel is too damn tempting to deny. Indulging their desires feels worth the risk—until trouble on the job lands Jack in the hospital, forcing them both to decide what’s worth fighting for.

I loved it!
Shift’s End is the third book in the Smoke & Bullets series but it can be read as a standalone with no problem. Characters from previous books appear but not in a way so that you will feel lost if you haven’t read their books.
I’ve really been enjoying this series. The blurb/synopsis really tells you everything you need to know about the story. What I can add is that once I started this book I didn’t want to stop. It not only tells a good love story between the two MCs (main characters) but it also has a good mystery and suspense to go along with it.
Jack and Diesel make a great couple. The feelings and emotions between them were palpable and I wanted their relationship to succeed so badly. The mystery and suspense were good but the love story was the best thing for me in this book.
I hope there will be more books in this series.

26 JanReview: Ryker & Gavin by A.D. Ellis
GLBTQ RomanceIn the dim glow of the moon and his mother's backdoor light, Ryker looked like a lost little boy swinging there. And, really, wasn't that what he was? Lost? Alone? Our emotionless hook up made more sense now. And made me feel even guiltier than I had when I left his place after the best blowjob of my life.
