Cat's Review of Grizzly Dare (Mayberry Protectors book 7) by Rhys Everly @rhyswritesromance @neonrainbowarcreviews @tammystwocents X- @rhyswritesmm @TTCBooksandmore

Once a feared Navy SEAL, now a simple blueberry farmer. 

I thought I left danger behind once and for all… until it came for him.

The young, handsome baker I can’t stop thinking about.

Taking him in is the easy part.

Keeping my hands off him? Now that'll be a challenge.

But I have to.

I locked my heart away years ago for a reason.

Yet he seems intent on breaking in one cake at a time.

If he gets through...I don't know what might happen.

Maybe something beautiful...

Or something that will destroy me once more.

Grizzly Dare is a MM Ex-Navy SEAL slow burn romance set in the small island of Mayberry Holm. It features a broken-hearted blueberry farmer, a happy-go-lucky baker with a tragic past, an obsessive ex who won't quit and food as a love language. Comes with a guaranteed HEA and can be read as a standalone but is better enjoyed if read in order.

Trigger warnings for past abusive relationship, mentions of emotional and physical abuse, PTSD and anxiety responses, violence, death.

Cat gives this book 5 Meows with a 3 purr heat index... 

Trigger warnings...past abusive relationship, mentions of emotional and physical abuse, PTSD and anxiety response, violence and death.

This is book 7 in the series, but it was my first and stood alone just fine.  Even was enough backstreet on recurring characters that I understood everything well. Very well written.

Things I liked...

All the characters. So many and all were intriguing... just enough backstreet I wasn't lost and wanted to go back and read their stories. 

Action...lots of action and it all fit.

Nail-biting suspense...both an ongoing plot and the plot in this book that were tied together. 

And most of all the size difference and age gap and that the bigger man was the bottom... not just a one time but loved bottoming. The relationship was perfect. And after reading author notes that this wasn't Zach's actual original story but just felt better with Dare... I heartily agree.

Rhys Everly-Lawless is a hopeless romantic who loves happily-ever-afters.

Which would explain why he loves writing them.

When he’s not passionately typing out his next book, you can find him cuddling his dog, feeding his husband, or taking long walks letting those plot bunnies breed ferociously in his head.

He writes contemporary gay romances as Rhys Everly and LGBTQ+ urban fantasy and paranormal romances as Rhys Lawless.
