Shannan – ☆☆☆
Civilian Master is a quick read. It has all the things that individually make for a good read. A broken military man that needs saving from himself, a new submissive looking for a Master, a BDSM club, a sexy Dom, lost love reuniting, and it's m/m.
It has the all elements separately but when you add them all together there is so much going on I felt like I couldn't connect with the MCs. The other “stuff” took away from the character development for me. The insta-love was a turn off, I get there is history but after eight years a little more conversation is usually needed.
I felt like I just read the book but I wasn't immersed in the story. Which is fine, not every book will pull you in. I am not saying it wasn't entertaining, it was. If I had to put it in a category I would say quick entertaining m/m BDSM read.

Clay is home on a forced R&R from the Special Ops mission that went bad. Clay went back to his hometown even though he doesn’t speak to his family and doesn’t want to be there. But Flynn is there, not like he ever told Flynn how he felt all those years ago when they were growing up and best friends. Always curious about BDSM, Clay goes to a local club to check it out and see if it’s something he would enjoy. Who is at said club? Flynn. OMG….when Flynn sees Clay in the club he is shocked and determined to not let Clay slip away again. This was a great story and I loved Clay and Flynn and was cheering them on right from the start.

Sex: Yes
Religious: No

Would I read more by this author: Yes
Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
I really enjoyed this story – it combines some incredibly hot, passionate scenes, with a genuine friendship/relationship that is touching and believable. There is something very sexy about these men and the roles that they take in each other's lives.
