Synopsis:
he bargained with his first client ….
real estate agent after leaving my alcoholic boyfriend of way too long. Getting
a call to list a house while parading as a hot dog for a few bucks seems like
my lucky break. Then things go sideways. My apartment is broken into and
burglarized. Getting caught half-naked while squatting in my own listing is a
low point. Seeing the sexy-voiced stranger who is now my client — and his
gorgeous, cold boyfriend? — major bummer. But hey! I might sell a house … if
we can ever get it in decent shape for the market and all the odd questions
surfacing about my client don’t get in the way.
bodyguard, and even that’s lost its appeal. A leave of absence to deal with a
house I inherited from my great-uncle seems like a good opportunity to get my
head straight. But then my boss pulls me aside and asks me to take on a witness
in danger. We’d be off the grid, so to speak. The guy is a criminal, but he’s
young and gay, so we set up a cover as a couple. Might seem risky in Kansas,
but all the gossip about those gay guys will make a great smokescreen to our
true secret: Lee is a target of the Dragon Boyz gang, and I have to keep him
safe until trial. Of course, I wasn’t counting on the gorgeous blond, blue-eyed
Realtor who makes me want something more in my life. When he starts asking
questions, do I set him straight or risk losing him for good? And then there’s
still those gang members to think about.

Review:
Full Disclosure by D.J. Jamison
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Full Disclosure (ARC) was graciously provided to me by IndiGo Marketing & Design for an honest review.
“A Suspenseful, Emotional Read..”
Stories that are filled with exciting and hopeful events, sad and touching moments, humorous and snarky friends, hot and sizzling times, and, tinged with lots of mysterious twists, are ones that have it all. My most recent read is one of those types of books.
Full Disclosure, by D.J. Jamison, is a well-paced eye-opening read with lots of twists and turns, interspersed with heart-stopping and dangerous moments, that had me equally as exhausted by the seemingly endless bouts of misfortune and perils, valiantly faced by both of the main characters.
I enjoyed reading Full Disclosure, which is part of the Real Estate Relations series, and thought the characters were realistic, and the writing to be one that evoked a suspenseful, emotional, and, yet, humorous tone to the story. While there were a few confusing parts, and, there were some questions which were left open, and there needed to be another run through the editing process, it was a really good story.
*star rating: 4.10 stars*
Meet the Author:
DJ Jamison grew up in the Midwest and worked in newsrooms for more than 10 years before trying her hand at romance writing. Her first m/m romance stories focused on a series of love connections between small-town Kansas newspaper staffers, their sources and their readers before she expanded into novels venturing into emergency rooms and other settings. She lives in Kansas with her husband, two sons and three glow-in-the-dark fish who are miraculously still alive. The same can’t be said for the hamster she got in college. RIP Bogie.
