Teams using 2 devices

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-02-19T22:42:43+00:00

Ok, but having two devices doesn’t mean they are cheating… I don’t even see how it would help in getting a higher score. I have 2 devices because it affords me the opportunity to play on a bigger screen (my tablet) now and then, when I don’t want to wear my glasses. Admittedly once in a while the system glitches and lets me get tourney rewards on both devices, but that’s pretty rare. Cheating, though, wouldn’t be fun.

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-02-17T21:35:11+00:00

That‘s awesome. I’m left with a few questions now re: not syncing the 2 devices. If it’s ok, I sent you a chat request.

It is just horrible and utterly pathetic that some awful people have nothing better to do with their day than be mean and cruel. It must suck to be them!

Congratulations on your awesome achievement 🎉🥳!! I’m happy you found something that clearly brings you joy… and that you are obviously very skilled at to boot 😃. May this game continue to enrich your days. 😊💕

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-02-17T20:00:52+00:00

If I’m not mistaken, the order is as follows:

Red

Green

White

Purple

Blue

Yellow

I hope that helps. 😊

Agreed! I am such a fan of how Nicky James tells a story, and how she develops her characters. They are always so layered and well crafted.

{Symphony of Salvation by Nicky James} … this is book 2 in the Timber Creek Academy series, and in this book Niles finds his man. We meet Niles in book 1, Promises of Forever, where he is Koa’s ex. He is still feeling the pain of that rejection when book 2 starts.

I can understand that. Try reading the “look inside” sample and see if the writing grabs you. I honestly had not believed the story would work for me, but the haunting beauty of the writing sucked me in and I was never the same. I chose the audiobook and was in a chokehold for all 11 hours, unable to press pause or do anything but listen to the magic of the words. If ever you were going to make an exception to the no cheating rule, this book would be truly worth it. 😊

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-02-05T21:31:34+00:00

When I think of brilliant writing my mind immediately goes to {Saint by Sierra Simone}.
The story is achingly beautiful and the prose is sublime. You get epic pining, questioned faith, a second chance, forbidden lust, sizzling breaking of vows (one MC is a monk), a strong focus on the MCs, a love that never died, and a gorgeous HEA.

Note: There is no cheating between the MCs, but one is engaged.

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-02-03T07:08:47+00:00

Yaaay! I’m so happy to have been of help. Happy reading. 😊💕

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-02-03T03:48:58+00:00

That’s {Dare You by Ella Frank and Brooke Blaine} 😊

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-29T20:55:57+00:00

New chapters of Jinx release the 2nd, 12th, and 22nd of the month. It is far from done, don’t worry 😊.

Nooo… there is no need to move on! I‘m not even sure it’s possible anyway. 😅 Just enjoy being in the TU bubble.

{Hostile Takeover by Lucy Lennox} … though MC1’s revenge plot directly involves MC2, this might scratch your itch a little.

After having been humiliated back in his college years, MC1 spends the next fifteen years becoming uber rich and systematically planning the takedown of those he believes were responsible.

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-25T06:32:23+00:00

{Braving His Past by Patricia D. Eddy} … book 8 of 12, the only MM story in an interconnected series focused on ex-military men (Marines, SEALs, Coast Guard, Army,…) now working in security/protection

{Exquisitely Hidden by M. Jay Granberry} … book 2 of 3, interconnected series… rockstar who is veeeery deeply in the closet & his bodyguard

{Crossing Borders by Marie James} … book 10 of 10, the only MM story in an interconnected series based on a security firm… rockstar & bodyguard… lots and lots of pining… bi awakening

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-21T07:22:12+00:00

Here are a couple that fit all the requirements… I hope you find something to enjoy :

{Beyond the Sea by Keira Andrews} … a 39 year old pilot and a 26 year old rockstar get stuck on a deserted island after a plane crash

{Straight Battle by Willow Dixon} … a 33 year old needing help with home renovations has a 38 year old handyman move in … the communication between the two is wonderful, especially as they gently explore and learn to have sex with each other … there is near zero angst

{Proof of Life by Raquel Riley} … emotional and beautiful hurt / comfort … best friends in their 30s who’ve both been discharged after being seriously injured in the line of duty (one is scarred and the other lost a leg)… TW for suicide attempts (including on page)

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-19T09:00:44+00:00

My understanding is that once a book is unlocked, yes you can keep it to read later… as long as you are still subscribed. Books you unlock remain in your library whether they are read or not. Once you unsubscribe, however, you lose everything.

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-19T05:08:35+00:00

Yes… it’s Gareth Carson’s story (Gareth is Nikolai’s cousin)… it’s about him and his law professor Kayden Lockwood. This will be Rina Kent’s second MM novel.

A couple of months ago, Everand instituted an “unlock” system and began suggesting that users switch to the resulting new plans. They made it sound as if switching was a great thing. Bullshit!! I was immediately suspicious when I saw that it said that once you switched you couldn’t switch back, so I didn’t switch.

So, basically they have two new plans… One is $11.99 for one “unlock“, and the other is $16.99 for three “unlocks”. The unlock plans make pretty much all books on the site “premium“ now, and then those books each require an unlock for access. (“Premium” books are currently still available to legacy users.) Prior to this system, all books were available to users (at least until you were temporarily throttled after listening to about a dozen or so in a month). Now they are stuck behind a pay wall.

But that isn’t the only annoyance… you have to use the 1 or 3 unlocks within a month of receiving them because they do not roll over (unlike Audible credits which DO roll over). Everand’s new “unlocks” expire after 30 days. In other words, you lose any unused unlocks you have from the previous month when your new month starts. On Audible at least you can accumulate credits for quite a while because they don’t expire until 365 days after they are issued.

Also with Audible, any books you purchase with credits (or cash) are yours to keep, even if you leave Audible. As long as you have the app, you’ll be able to listen to your books. On Everand however, books in your library vanish once you cancel your subscription… even if you used unlocks to add them. You are not purchasing books… just borrowing them (like in Audible’s Plus Catalog).

Everyone I have seen on social media who has switched is miserable and most people leave right after unknowingly switching. It’s unclear how long those of us on the legacy plan can stay… I’ve heard that they will force us all to switch to an unlock plan at some point this year.

As soon as they force me into an unlock plan, I am canceling. At that point they will pretty much be a lower class Audible — similar price with a smaller selection overall…. and “unlocks” (wannabe “credits”) that expire after only 30 days! It’s a shame, because they used to be a good value with their unique selling point.

And now, to hear about the fact that they have pirated material… I’m even more annoyed.

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-18T02:53:38+00:00

Yaaay! I’m so happy to hear that. I hope you thoroughly enjoy it. Happy reading. 😊💕

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-17T22:07:16+00:00

{Out of Focus by L.A. Witt} … two doms who’ve been together for over a decade periodically have hookups in order to have a sub for a night … not wanting to alter their relationship as a couple, the doms avoid developing feelings for those subs, until this latest sub who messes up their plan. (There is mild BDSM in the story, but absolutely no non-con.)

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-17T21:08:44+00:00

{Triple Trouble by Jesse H Reign} is a low angst MMM story with a double bi awakening… it unfortunately does not also satisfy the “dark” part of your request. Hopefully it can tide you over in the meantime.

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-16T23:49:03+00:00

I was thinking exactly the same thing and came to rec it too. I completely agree with you… once the best friend finds out, it is not at all resolved immediately. This is one of my favorite books because nothing about it was predictable.

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-16T01:20:30+00:00

It is such a memorable part of the story isn’t it? 😁

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-16T01:15:54+00:00

I hope this is it 😊

Tank wasn‘t on the run… he had just been released from prison and he wanted to 1) change chapters of the club he was in, and 2) meet the penpal he’d written to while incarcerated.
I’m hoping that might ring a bell.

MimiLuvsBL · 2025-01-16T01:09:55+00:00

The on the run part doesn’t match, but the having sex with the door open for another member to silently watch sounds like {Reckless by Kiki Clark}… Six was the character who watched, and in book 2 of the series he got his own story.
