Nannette has this to say: I love the way James Buchanan writes. Whether his stories are about cops, cowboys, vampires, or stuntmen, I’m completely sucked in every time. True Hollywood has one incredibly hot sex scene, two sexy guys, and a lot of angst. It’s real and a little gritty and the chicken cannon story is hilarious! I was wide- eyed and glued to the pages as Jason told it laughing along with them. I need more. I need a True Hollywood 2! I need to know what happens between Jason and Ernie James!

Bella with Two Lips Reviews gave Cheating Chance a recommended read AND her reviewer’s choice for June!
“Cheating Chance is an awesome story that will make you resent every single second that you have to take away from reading to deal with the inconveniences of daily life, like eating and sleeping.[…] James Buchanan wrote a winning combination with Nick and Brandon and I’m eagerly looking forward to the next book in the series. Cheating Chance is a must have for the library of all m/m lovers and it will place James Buchanan on the list of authors you must buy!

5 Angles from Fallen Angels
Gritty suspense, tight pacing and exquisitely detailed background along with Buchanan’s trademark fiery sex scenes all combined to make The Good Thief a thoroughly satisfying and rewarding read. I highly recommend it. ~Nicky

Nicky with Fallen Angel Reviews gave James's Urban Phaze 5 Angels!
"I found Jason and Ernie to be instant favorites. Strikingly created,
they're so strongly described; it was as if they were alive and sitting
next to me, telling their story. This isn't some fantasy, no, Buchanan
did his research and presents a group of stuntmen and women that are so
rowdy and real; they even come with their own memories of past stunts!
I found it easy to fall into this loveable crowd of misfits as they
represent the part of
despite how many movies live off them. Yet they're big and bold in this
story that's all about True Hollywood. Combine this group with the
graceful, realistic background of a glittery, hard-edged
and the mind-blowing chemistry between Jason and Ernie and I say that
this story, hands down, is a winner.
Will there be more? I can only hope!"

Three reviews, two are recommended reads!
Review on Alternative-Read.com “I must say that I found this probably a more gritty look at the life of the gay male in certain work fields. Sad, but true. I liked the fact that the emotions of both men were explored, the sex and light bondage were extremely sensual and there were enough sub-characters such as Mexican Mafia to make the plot continually interesting without those "slow" patches.” Reviewed by WitchGiggles

James Buchanan once again writes with descriptive imagery that pulls you into the story and makes you feel like a participant rather than a bystander. “Mask” has lovely men, wicked women, magic, and an enjoyable story.

I'll be signing copies of The Good Thief, so come on down!
Working construction provides Caesar with a great way to cover up his real job; stealing whatever he can get his hands on. Which is why the guy he has a fling with could be really bad for business. Nate is a cop, and Caesar worries that he might be tempting fate if he sees Nate again, even if he wants to.
When Caesar discovers something far worse than some petty thievery on one of his jobs, though, he knows he has to report it to Nate, and the two of them try to find a way to keep Caesar safe until he can testify, even as the sparks fly between them. Can Nate protect Caesar and teach him that there are ways to be a good guy as well as a thief?

Yeah, I know…5 of 5! From Literary Nymphs.
“The gifted James Buchanan lures you into the networking within the legal systems and the progression of an investigation, the emotional turmoil of a new relationship and the motivations for murder. Cheating Chance is a well written, realistic mystery blended with humor and sensuous love play that keeps your emotions attached to the very end of the story. I enjoyed this impressive and tantalizing story immensely.”

"outrageously hot cop" designation)
"The Good Thief is a great book that will pull you into the story from the
first page with characters who are flawed, yet perfect for each other. Pick
up The Good Thief for a day when you are looking for a explosively hot read
that packs plenty of suspense and humor to keep you turning the pages."

Fallen Angeles Review: "I really enjoyed Nick and Brandon as characters.
Nick is out of the closet but not flamboyantly so. He doesn't hide the fact
that he's gay nor does he flaunt it. He exudes his own blend of sexual
appeal with a hint of vulnerability; he's also one cool character with his
Goth lifestyle. Brandon is oh so sexy with his bad boy looks with the added
attraction that no matter what his exterior presents he's a cop with a
strong moral code. The frustrations that the couple faces with trying to
make a long distance relationship work aren't new, but when you add in the
fact that they have to hide their relationship because Brandon is still so
deeply hidden in the closet, it makes it even harder than normal. [...]James
Buchanan needs to hurry up and write more about Nick and Brandon. I can't
wait to see what the future holds for these two intriguing characters and
their troubled relationship!"

Review: Mychael Black, popular Torquere author, writes:
Brandon Carr is firmly in the closet. Very firmly. Safely hidden where no one else can see that he has a penchant for men. As a cop for Riverside Police, he knows how to keep his needs and desires tucked away. And up until now, he's managed just fine. Then Nevada Gaming Commission Agent, Nick O'Malley, waltzes into his life and turns

Hot cops. Hot sex. Tons of action. What's not to love??
From the first words on the page, it's impossible NOT to become entangled in this story.
If you've never read anything from Buchanan, this is a perfect time (and book) to start. It sets the tone for Buchanan's work: gritty, real, and hot as hell.
Read a Sample:
Nick looked up into a pair of crystal blue eyes. He started, thumping the back of his head on the hood of the Endloader.
“So this is the hearse?”
Nick offered up a thin smile. “Yeah, this is the rust bucket.” As he pushed past
“Whoa, she lives, I’m impressed.”
The driver’s window was down, semi-permanently. It had to be physically pulled into place. “Garage door’s open.” He slung his arm over the door and picked at the rotting weather strip. “Wouldn’t want anyone to see us together.”
“Nicky, what’s up?”
“It’s me, not you.” His boot heel drew a red-brown line from the gas pedal back. “Don’t worry about it.” Probably time to order carpeting through Kanter. Probably should get floor panels first… or maybe fix the window and do weather stripping. Shit, there was still a lot to do. He’d hoped a certain someone could help him with that. That’s what he got for letting his fantasies overstep reality.
Both hands on the door,
“I’ll get over it.” Mouth set hard, his eyes slid toward
“Before I leave on Sunday? Come on tell me.” Silence answered him.
“Yeah, you were having fun.” Nick reverted to staring out the windshield.
“You weren’t?”
“At first.” Nick killed the engine. “When we first got to Purgatory and Miri’s birthday that was fun.”
“And...”
Nick tried not to let the pain show in his eyes. “Then you went to get a drink at the bar. And you stayed at the bar flirting with that girl. I mean, shit, we haven’t seen each other in two months and you ditch me to chase tail... which, as far as I know, you’re not going to do anything with anyway.”
“Nick, I told you I’m not out.”
“Okay. No!” Nick ran his nails across his scalp. “Not out is no public displays of affection. I can’t tell anyone we’re seeing each other. I get it. It’s bad enough, but I understand why.” His hand slammed the steering wheel. “It is not ignoring me for an hour while you grab some bitch’s ass! You wanna cover... I’m seeing someone. Gee, you’re cute, but I can’t get involved now. I’ve really been looking forward to seeing you again, and that just fucking hurt.”
“Listen, Nicky, I didn’t do it to hurt you. I’m sorry. It’s just habit.”
More black flecks found their way to the floor. “You know what really hurt?”
“What?”
“That your first thought wasn’t me... it was protecting your cover in the easiest way possible.”
“I’m sorry, Nicky. I should have handled it better. All I can do is say I’m sorry.”
“I know. I’ll get over it. Like I said it’s my problem.”
Hard silence broke between them for a time. “No, it’s my problem. I really, really like you, Nicky. It’s been a long time since I felt this way about anybody. Hell, I drove four hours across the desert, pulling bugs outta my teeth to see you.” Nick snorted a laugh. “Let’s not go out tonight. Stay home, just you and I. I’ll give you all the attention you need. I want to. I want to be with you.”
“The garage door’s still open.”
“I know.”
He pulled back. “Broken what in?”
“Big ol’ back area…”
“You’re fucking crazy, you know that?” Nick rolled his eyes, sliding back across the bench. “Jake would never have gone for that. He was always after me to sell it and use the money for a down payment on a
It was almost feral how
Already things were beginning to tingle and tighten. “Well, this wasn’t his lifestyle.”
“How the hell did you meet him then?” Strong arms were on either side of Nick’s hips as
“He’s part of the fetish crowd, dress up to party on weekends.” Why the fuck was he talking about Jake? Especially with
Nick’s skin clung to the vinyl against his back. “Querida.” His own hands were tracing the ridges of
“I always wondered about that. Querida.” The way
Nick’s breathing was already heavy. The heat in the garage didn’t help. “For a guy who’s not out you certainly like to have sex in some risky places.” Well, not that risky, they were almost sixty feet back from the street and in a garage. Still, if someone were standing at the end of the drive they’d get a show. “Besides, I didn’t bring anything out with me.”
He twisted the packet in his fingers, sliding his gaze up to meet
“Oh, hell, yeah, baby.” Burning hard kisses stole what little remained of Nick’s resistance. “One of the best types around.”

4.5 Nymphs..."I thoroughly enjoyed the book, and was caught between laughter over antics and fanning to abide the heat. I’ll admit the sex was hotter the second time around." "Twice the Cowboy, Twice the Ride is the first book by James Buchanan that I have had the privilege to read and review. I’m positive it won’t be the last. You watch as Manuel and Jess both grow and nurture each other through the series, learn to overcome obstacles and put old fears to rest. They even find acceptance where they thought none may be given. All the while, you are delivered with bits of humor and sex hot enough to scorch your eyebrows. James Buchanan has delivered a series you don’t want to miss."
I think I scandalized the Scandalous Minx.
