This collection of stories is a fun romp! The stories alternate between three main couples, but some stories have multiple parts (e.g. read about a couple, jump to a different couple, come back and finish the story of the first couple). The writing is very good, the stories are hot and the sex frequent and inventive. Each couple has something special to recommend them, but my favorite is Caleb and Ethan, the reunited friends. They meet at a costume ball without knowing who the other is. I would happily read an entire novel just about them.

However, readers should know this is an erotica/romance collection; there really is no other plot outside of the couples' interactions which occur mainly inside the club (no mystery or villains). And, since we jump between couples, there is not a lot of relationship development beyond the sex and some talking. Tortuga does cleverly imply that the couples are building their relationships when we don't see them, but for the most part we do not experience this first hand. If you are looking for some hot action, I highly recommend Hyacinth Club. If you are looking for a standard M/M romance, this might not fit the bill.

In the glorious Victorian age, it is expected that gentlemen belong to a private club. One such gentlemen's club is the Hyacinth Club run smoothly by Devlin, Lord Mountbanc. Of course each club has their own particular style and the Hyacinth Club is no different. This establishment caters to gentlemen who prefer the sexual company of other gentlemen.

At the Hyacinth Club such diverse men as an Earl from Scotland and a long, lean Texan or a big, burly country Squire and an inexperienced actor find wonderful partnerships. Games of submission and domination become exquisite undertakings for some of the other members of the club. The Hyacinth Club is the perfect establishment for men to be exactly whom they most desire to be.

The Hyacinth Club is scorching hot M/M romance from beginning to end. Some readers may not enjoy every couple, but there is pretty much something for everyone including light BDSM, a threesome and so much more. Talented author BA Tortuga once again showcases superb writing talent with intriguing characters and inventive sexual situations. Before you start reading Hyacinth Club make sure there's plenty of ice or you might just go up in flames. Daring and provocative, Hyacinth Club is seriously hot!
