Cavan Carmichael has just transferred to LAPD from rural Oregon. It's Halloween and he's expecting...well, the unexpected, since it's the time of spooky things, and this is LA, after all. Nobody, however, could have predicted an animal abuse call that turns out to reveal a beaten, chained-up man in a garden shed.

Then comes the words that Cavan knows will haunt him for life: "Don't worry, I'm tame."

Cavan rescues the man who, underneath the bruises and blood, is very handsome. And mysterious. Nothing about the stranger adds up. Nothing he says makes sense. For every medical test the doctors perform, only more questions arise. When Ludo, as he insists he be called, is admitted to the hospital, he has grievous injuries inflicted by a despicable assailant via antique torture instruments.

Unbelievably, Ludo's injuries heal fast and Cavan, who visits the recuperating man, is astonished to find he is attracted and protective of the man. But can Cavan overlook the oddities, such as bristles under the man's tongue? The strange wolf hairs in his wounds? Is the most beautiful man Cavan has ever seen really...tame? 

Cavan has not only an unusual name but an unusual family. His mother a retired cop picked up an unusual collecting habit that has left him and his sister scratching their heads. Add on an unusual call leading to the finding a man named Ludo chained abused and bleeding in a shed on an animal abuse call. What do you say to a man who is broken, bloodied, abused and incredibly sexy when he says “don’t worry I’m tame”? The Answer to all those questions takes you through a Wonder Book Called Tame By AJ Llewellyn.  

This is AJ’s first attempt at a werewolf tale and I can honestly say that I hope like hell that there are more to follow. Ludo and Cavan are realistic characters who are believable, down to earth and relatable. If I didn’t know that this was a work of fiction I would have easily thought that they were real people. I have noticed with all of His works (even the ones he has co-wrote) AJ goes above and beyond to make his characters believable and relatable.  Tame is no different. Cavan is a slightly broken man trying to pick up the pieces to his broken life only to be thrusted into something bigger than him. His family is nuts and this is relatable come on let’s be honest we all have friends and family who are nutters or do nutty things. However I would like to point out that I personally think AJ watches Way to Much of Hoarders.

Without giving to much away I can say that every little thing that happenes and doesn’t happen is relative to the story. Tame like so many of AJ’s books leaves you wanting more.  Tame is a breathtakingly haunting story about finding your way in a crazy world and being ok with it. It’s about finding love in the most inconvenient of places (hmmm PLOT idea for DJ’s Next Inconvenient Love Novel). But mostly I think its about believing in the unbelievable and understanding the things in life that are sometimes hard to understand.

On my Erect Peni Scale of 1-10 Tame deserves 10 erect Peni and a cold shower warning. Even though there isn’t as much HOT Steamy Sex in this shorter story… What is there Is HOT as Hell and leave you in need of a cold shower.

On my Need to Have scale (remember 1 is it can wait till payday and 10 sell the kids) this is a 10... Sell the kids (furry or real) this is a Must read!!

On a side note I would like to mention that this is one of many books in a collection of shorts for Halloween Called Howling at the Moon. There are some AWESOME writers that I have had the pleasure of reading before. You can find the whole Collection here http://www.amberquill.com/AmberAllure/AP_HowlingAtMoon2011.html

Amber Quill is an Awesome Publisher because they not only Release the Anthology they release the singles at the same time. That way you don’t have to read someone you don’t know HOWEVER I WANT TO HIGHLY Suggest to all my Readers to get the whole series. The writers are TOP notch and all deserve a shout out. 

My Review Of Kaleidoscope

Kaleidoscope

By A.J. Llewellyn

ISBN-13: 978-1-61124-159-4 (Electronic)

Teddy Bardin Marries Aususte, whom he thought was the man of his dreams, and to start a new life with his husband, he moved from New York in Paris, the city of light. Now, on a rainy afternoon, a life- shattering telephone call arrives, and Teddy learns that Auguste has been in a car accident.

After racing to the hospital to visit his stricken husband, Teddy is in for another emotional shock --- listed among Auguste’s injuries is a nearly severed penis. It comes as an even bigger surprise when Teddy learns that Auguste was with another man who was orally pleasuring him at the moment of impact. And that’s only the beginning in a series of heartbreaking discoveries.

Teddy quickly comes to realize he must make some tough decisions about his future, especially about his marriage and unfaithful husband… and also his growing obsession with Pierre, the other important man in Auguste’s life…

Teddy is a loveable, honest genuine person who truly cares about those closest to him. When he arrives at the hospital and finds out that his husband Aususte has cheated on him it is like his world is ripped out from under him and he flounders for only a moment. In a display that I can honestly say is inspirational he picks himself up and gathers information for himself when he realizes that those closest to him are now hiding things from him. Packing himself up Teddy moves on and starts the pain for path of putting one foot in front of the other and move on with is life. He feels that for him the best way to do this is to confront Pierre the person thinks is the cause of all his issues and the reason for his destroyed marriage. Only to Find that is not the case and finds out sometimes the best and most beautiful Kaleidoscope in life is found not in what you think you have but in the little things most people don’t see.

Pierre is a hard working Waiter who had dreams of grander things. His dangerous love for a man who he has had an on again off again relationship with ends when he nearly severs Aususte’s penis off in a motor vehicle accident Furthering harming an injury cause when Pierre tried to end his life. When a not so change meeting with the man who was married to his lover and an accident at work cause both Pierre and Teddy to realize that love really is a Kaleidoscope… And sometimes the best things in life can be found in the worse ways.

Kaleidoscope was honestly one of the most heartwarming novels I have read recently. AJ have again shown us sometimes true love can be found in the smallest of places and come out of the worst things in the world. Teddy and Pierre inspired me to believe in true love, love at first sight and just the beauty of the littlest things. These two people met through the worst possible way. And Teddy Sadly was played by people he thought card for him. Yet through it all he stayed true to his patients and himself and moved on and found the love he wanted all along.

On my Erect Peni scale of 1-10 for sexual hotness I will give it a 10 still… Even though this isn’t AJ’s normal brand of sexy hot man love The tenderness and creative use of flavored lube still makes it HOT!!!!

On my Must have scale of 1-10 Kaleidoscope is a MUST READ and a MUST HAVE!!!!!

This is truly a short story worth the Read!

Ever Beleño is a collector of old Hollywood memorabilia. He's also a fan of dead people. Mummies are his special passion, just like flying saucers are his roommate Johnny's particular obsession. Ever's dark and gothic world might be lonely, but after a heart-breaking split with his ex, he wants it no other way...until he visits the sold-out Mummies of the World exhibit.
As Ever studies one particular ancient Egyptian mummy, he experiences the odd, chilly sensation of somebody touching and following him. Every time he turns to look, he thinks it's handsome but obnoxious security guard Chris Coelho, who snuck Ever into the exhibit as a favor. Chris clearly wants the favor returned, but would the man really feel up Ever in public? Ever isn't sure, but then once he goes home, weird things continue happening.
Chris shows up everywhere, but he's suddenly sweet, silly, profound and...Forgetful. After a torrid night of passion, Ever becomes hooked on the guy even as his feelings for Chris veer between desire and exasperation.
And then, the mummy Ever had been studying disappears from the exhibit. Could the events be connected? Could the spirit of the mummy have somehow followed him home? Is Ever losing his mind? Or is Chris really, as he says in a drunken moment, The Love God of Indian Frybread?

Yummy Sweets, Sexy Mummies and a Ouija boards! What more can a girl ask for in a book??? Well for this girl not a whole hell of a lot more.  The Love God of Indian Frybread is to me a Classic AJ Llewellyn novel… It’s sweet, funny, sexy, and has food sex. AJ have this innate ability to sweep a person into his novels, teach them something random about Ancient History, food, Or Old Hollywood they might not have known before...  

The Love God of Indian Frybread doesn’t fail to suck you in and keep you on edge till the very end... You truly feel what everyone is going through… Finding what feels like true love only to have that person do something Odd too, trying to impress and win a childs affection when they don’t share the same interests you do. This book really makes you ask yourself what I would do if…. 

I enjoyed this book more that I thought I might... I try to not judge a book by its cover and when I think AJ and Mummies something hotter and less creepy comes to mind... However don’t let the cover scare you this book is truly classic  AJ HOTNESS…

 Ever is to me a Classic hopeless romantic even if he doesn’t realize it... All Ever wants is for Love and Luck to shine in his direction and he is answered with Chris. Who isn’t what Ever was expecting but is he what he needs? Can first impressions be deceiving?  Well I ain't telling!!! However what I will tell you is  AJ Finds some very new and Very Different uses for his favorite food Cupcakes!  I don’t want to give away anything about this book other than if you Love Mummies, Old Hollywood, Cupcakes and sex  than this book is worth getting and reading... I highly recommend it and think all of you will love it too…

On my New Peni Scale I have to give this Book a 10 plus erect Peni for its use of food, creative use of a Condom and Just plain hot dirty sex. I also have to give AJ props for creative use of Cupcakes. 

On a Scale of 1-100 for Hotness I give The Love God of Indian Frybread a 99.9 ( I took away a fraction of a point because of AJ creative but non sexual use of a Cupcake) But Over all this book IS HOT and will leave you fanning and panting with need and hotness..
