EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Better Than Sex
Reader’s Favorite (three reviewers)

Excerpt from KC Finn’s review: “Kit Erikson has a way with dialogue—it’s sharp, funny, and full of personality, making the characters realistic from the start. The chemistry between Spencer and Mickey is undeniable, making every interaction sizzle, whether it’s playful banter or a more tender moment. I loved how the author layers this steamy romance with deeper themes like self-worth and identity, making sure the emotional connection is just as important as the attraction for a fully rounded story. Both characters grow in a way that is natural thanks to the author’s talent for dialogue and realistic storytelling.”

Excerpt from Rabia Tanveer’s review: “Kit Erikson has created an engaging romance packed with humor, heat, and heartfelt moments that I thoroughly enjoyed. The relationship between Spencer and Mickey is electric, to say the least. They have contrasting personalities that create tension that builds beautifully over time. The novel excels in character development, particularly in Mickey’s transformation from insecure to self-assured. Meanwhile, Spencer’s gradual realization that love isn’t as scary as he thought is equally entertaining.”

Excerpt from Angelique Papayannopoulos’ review: “The author skillfully navigates themes of love, steadfast friendships, self-discovery, acceptance, and overcoming significant challenges. It strikes a perfect balance between wit and emotional power. Better Than Sex is ideal for readers who embrace gay relationships and want a pleasant read.”

I can’t recommend this story enough; it will make you laugh, swoon, and possibly cry.”

Brighter Than The Sun
Reader’s Favorite

Excerpt from Christian Sia’s review: “Kit Erikson excels in character work. The depth of the characters makes it irresistible. Blake’s insane ambition drives the plot, and while he appears perfect physically, he is flawed, struggling with his past and his need for genuine love. Ethan is a piece of work; he is smart and, at times, confused about what he really wants. But his character arc is so ingeniously rendered that his journey toward accepting his desires and making difficult choices about his relationship with Blake infuses the story with energy. Brighter Than the Sun delivers laugh-out-loud humor through characters like the flamboyant Zane, the loyal Tenny, and the gruff mentor, Virgil. The plot twists and scenes, such as a last-minute shortage of dancers, keep the pacing brisk. This book offers a finely rendered San Francisco setting, a world where found family may matter more than blood.”

Literary Titan

Excerpt: “This is an explicit, affectionate romance with plenty of heat, humor, and backstage chaos, but what lingers most is its belief in being seen clearly. Blake wants applause for his talent, Ethan wants a life that actually fits him, and together they build a space where desire and dignity can exist in the same room. Brighter Than the Sun is tender and full of people trying their best to become braver than they were yesterday.”
