I’ve loved the Parlor Games stories so far and this story was no exception – The Laughing Game was a fantastic read with a lot of explorations!
AE Lister writes kink extremely well, and I loved seeing Angel explore both his sexuality and kinks together with Vihaal and Gideon. Angel was so sweet and it was cute how he realised that he might not be as straight as he thought, while everyone else had pretty much already figured it out. There was a bit more humour in this one than I anticipated, and I had a great time reading about Angel and his men!
I really enjoyed Angel’s journey of self-discovery, and the connection he found with Vihaal and Gideon was great. It was obvious that they’d had their eyes on Angel for quite a while and were hoping for more than something casual. I liked the three of them together, and even if Angel initially wanted to take things slow, it was easy to see how he lost himself a bit with these two and their explorations. There were some great and steamy scenes here, and I always love and appreciate how realistic the scenes and kinks are in AE Lister’s stories.
The Laughing Game was another beautiful and enjoyable read from AE Lister, and I loved being back at Maverick Molly’s! Angel, Vihaal and Gideon’s story was a treat to read, and if you’re looking for kink exploration and D / s dynamics with both spice and feels, I highly recommend checking out this series!
