Unique and Utterly Captivating Story
By JustJen
This unique story completely captivated me almost right from the very start. From the absolutely gorgeous cover to the intriguing blurb, I had a good feeling about it, and I was not disappointed.
This story is unique in a few ways. First and foremost, it is about a young man and his struggles through life with having a smaller than average package.
“How could I admit to anyone that I couldn’t bring myself to be naked in front of another person? And, if that fear meant I’d be a virgin for the rest of my life? Well, it was something I’d been trying for years to fool myself into believing I’d be ok with.”
It starts out in the present day with Grif and his partner Wes. We get to see a little about what their relationship entails and the dynamic between them. Before long though, we are brought back to the beginning, or what events brought Grif to this point.
From his very first thoughts of being gay, realizing how different he was from other guys, and a bad experience when that happened, Grif resigned himself to a life alone. Once in college, he meets and ends up rooming with straight guy, Tate. I immediately fell in love with Tate. They become good friends, quite a turning point in Grif’s life. Tate is amazing. He gives Grif something special, a freedom and general acceptance, asking nothing in return other than what he receives from Grif’s attentions. A win/win situation for them both, as Tate would say. The two have such an amazing camaraderie, and the dialog is fabulous. Tate is a funny guy, and Grif matches him quite nicely.
“Okay, let’s, for a moment, forget about the sex and just talk. Wait! Fuck, not sex. We are not having sex…you’re blowing me.” “…Okay, whatever it is, let’s put is aside for a moment."
Grif learned early on with Tate that he enjoyed being a bit humiliated about his size while he was submitting or being asked to submit. This carries on and plays a big part in his later relationship with Wes. Again, thinking he will never find anyone he can trust enough to share his size secret, he gets by with strongly orchestrated Grindr hookups. This is all well and good, until he meets Wes, who quickly shows he is not the average hookup. Wes is adamant about following Grif’s rules to a T, even if he doesn’t quite understand the reasoning behind them. This is only the beginning of the trust that grows between them.
“When I’m naked, and you’re not…when we’re in Chocolate…I feel there’s no chance for me to hide. I mean, when you’re naked, I can do things to you to distract you, things I know will take your mind and eyes off me, Off of Junior. But, times like these…there’s no place for me to hide, Wes, and it scares me.”
Wes and Grif are perfect for each other. They each give the other what they need, they find a way to work this into their daily lives (Chocolate/Vanilla) and watching them get to the point where Grif trusts Wes enough to move past his jock shield was truly a joy.
“Your super powers are safe. I made sure your magic underwear are in place, Jockboy.”
One of the other unique aspects to this story is something that a lot of people might not like. Heck, I don’t generally like it in my stories either, but it really works here. The story goes back and forth between Grif’s time with Tate (given certain events, I was happy there was more of this throughout) and Grif and Wes’ relationship. This was easy to follow though with the date headlines provided. I found I looked forward to each switch longing for more details and breadcrumbs.
There was not a single character in this story that I didn’t like, from Grif’s dad, to his personal assistant and right down to his stubborn bodyguard, Pavel. The dialog throughout this is just fabulous. It runs the gamut of emotions, from funny to tear wrenching, and everything in between. While many may not understand the general kink here, it is hard to imagine anyone not seeing beyond that to the rest of this amazing well-written story. This is not the usual BDSM with master/sir this and that. It is more about the power exchange, freely given, overcoming fears, and the love and trust that is needed to accomplish that.
This is more than simply the story of Grif and Wes’ romance. It is an amazing tale of Grif’s life journey overcoming a major obstacle and finding happiness, and I’m thrilled I was along for the ride. I’m more than looking forward to continuing it in the next installment. I highly recommend you give this story the opportunity to take hold and allow Grif/Wes (and Tate) into your hearts as well. Job well done by first-time author, Mr. Tonlet.

Grif's Toy is a must read...Outstanding
By MM Book Escape (KMac)
Reading a book from a new author provokes a certain amount of anticipation in me. I always have a bit of trepidation not knowing what to expect. I choose books that interest me hoping to be able to get lost in the words, and to feel a connection. Grif's Toy, by Joseph Lance Tonlet, not only pulled me into the story, but also kept me there for the duration.
You would not know, unless you had the knowledge already, that this is the first novel by this author. He has a different writing style that I immediately adjusted too and really came to love the way he relayed the story.
Grif's Toy opens up with Grif and Wes already being a committed couple. Their partnership is unique and for lack of a better term, complicated. This is my first experience with reading about a couple whose sexual proclivities, at first glance, seem harsh and mean. Wes whispers the word "Chocolate" to Grif and everything changes. The tone, the demands as well as commands. Wes' expectations of Grif are to obey without question or simply utter the word "Vanilla" as everything will cease, immediately.
I've read enough BDSM books that I picked up on the meaning of those two words but in the context when they were in force, I felt conflicted and confused. Wes, quite simply, appears to be a jerk with no compassion or concern for the things he is asking of Grif. He thrives and gets pleasure from causing Grif discourse and humiliating him to the point of tears. These actions, brought on by the feelings Grif is experiencing, only further increases Wes' pleasure. But...hold on everybody. Sometimes things are not always as they appear.
Reading further and giving everyone the benefit of the doubt, you realize that these things that, at first, seem rude and crude are things that actually give Grif just as much pleasure, if not more so, than Wes. You will also come to see just how much Wes loves Grif and vice versa. They have a beautiful, thoughtful, and very passionate relationship. They understand each other, immensely, in or out of the bedroom. They complement each other perfectly. And, as cliché as it sounds, they are a match made in Heaven.
Joseph takes us back and forth mapping out Grif's life. We go back to his college years and meet Tate. A true and humble friend who over time will teach Grif how to love himself just as he is. During these times of the story, you will find yourself smiling from ear to ear. Most of the time not even realizing you've been doing so, but you can't help it.
The banter between Grif and Tate is contagious. Their witty comebacks and good-natured ribbing is absolutely hilarious. Tate will become someone in Grif's life that cannot be measured by words. Their relationship and camaraderie is such a gift and a treasure.
"Tate," I whispered, as my entire body shook. Like I'd suddenly grown cold, but I felt the opposite. I felt heated all over.
"It's okay, Grif. It's all good, Big Guy," he soothed. I nodded and exhaled deeply. F&*%, on the one hand, I was so incredibly scared, but on the other, this was Tate. There wasn't anyone I trusted and could be myself with more than him.
Tate is straight, but he understands Grif like no one else ever has. His sexuality is something he has always been secure with and he helps Grif be just as secure with his own. As time goes on, Grif will come to learn just how much of a gift Tate was and how special their friendship had become.
We also visit Grif in his younger years. We find out why his insecurities towards his manhood come into question. This leads to insecurities that will haunt him and dictate his actions for the rest of his life. He has a beautiful relationship with his parents, more so with this father, and it was heart-warming to witness. They never held any prejudices towards his sexuality. They loved him for him and supported him with decisions that he made for himself and his well-being.
When Grif meets Wes, Tate, unfortunately, is just a memory. But a memory that is always on his mind. Tate helped to create the man who Grif has become, and therefore, will always be part of his heart. Wes is immediately attracted but he plays by the rules Grif lays out. Wes is the only other man Grif has ever been with other than Tate. Honesty and integrity is something they both adhere too. It's also something that seems to enhance their relationship. Voicing their thoughts and feelings is something they do from the very beginning.
"When we talk, about important things - like sex, fetishes, feelings, for example - I'd really like to hear your voice...to hear your words. Particularly when using words is difficult; either from apprehension, or embarrassment, or fear, or shame...whatever the reason...I'd really enjoy you expressing those emotions vocally."
From here, their relationship grows and understandings are in place and become common practice. These two men love each other more than life itself. Their partnership/relationship is so well-balanced. Even though Grif is the submissive in their lovemaking during moments of "Chocolate" he can be aggressive and forceful and doesn't hesitate to put Wes in his place if need be. You figure out early on that everything they do is out of love for each other. Every facet of their relationship, whether in or out of the bedroom, is something they both cherish.
Yes! He's gonna f&*% me. From the very first time we'd done this, I'd fallen in love with the feeling of being filled, of him taking me, of enjoying how much he loved being inside me. I loved the surprise too; I never knew if he was going to be soft, or gentle, or loving, or playful, or if he was going to be rough, or demanding, or possessive and f&*% me into oblivion. I enjoyed all of them equally; he was amazing no matter what mood he was in.
The author takes us on a 14 year journey through Grif's life. He meets many incredible people who come to mean so much in his life. The main characters certainly carry the story, but without the side characters, such as, Matthew, Pavel, Lance, and others, Grif's life would not be what it is. The value they bring to Grif's life is immense.
They are a riot and the fun they have seems endless. They are quick-witted and it seems their humour knows no bounds. But just as they are fun, they can also become your worst nightmare if they ever felt Grif was being threatened. Their loyalty and dedication has no limits.
The author writes with so much passion and his prose is quite lyrical at times. You always know who is speaking and what timeframe you are in.
Normally, I usually steer away from these storylines. With Grif's Toy, I can honestly say that not only did I enjoy it, I was anxious for the times when the story would go back in time so that I could find out more insight into these characters that I have come to love throughout this story.
I hope Mr. Tonlet has plans to give us much more of these characters. I know I am looking forward to discovering everything he has to offer us. Overall impression of Grif's Toy: strong recommendation to anyone who loves D/s relationships where safe, sane, and consensual, are always the most important factor. So much humour that will having you laughing aloud and sex that is super-hot and sexy whether Chocolate or vanilla is in play.
This story may be the author's first published novel but he definitely writes a story like a seasoned pro.

Definite A+ rating from me!
By Smitten with Reading
My Review:
I bought this book after seeing rave reviews for it on a couple of different blogs. This is the author's debut novel so I've never read him before, but the premise was intriguing and I decided to give it a go.
I'll admit, when I began the book I wasn't sure. It's a HIGHLY sexual book (not that that's a bad thing...no, that works for me), but the way it started I just wasn't sure. Because Grif has a BDSM relationship with a humiliation kink I wasn't sure I was going to be able to really enjoy this one as much. But then the book went on and I absolutely fell in love with the story, Grif, and the men Grif has had in his life. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
This book is written unlike any other book I've ever read before. Each chapter is a different moment in time in Grif's life. They are in there all out of order so as a reader, you slowly get to see how Grif got to this place in his life. It's brilliantly done...seriously, HUGE KUDOS to the author, Joseph Lance Tonlet, because this is one of the most creatively written, beautifully laid out books I think I've ever read. It was just so different in the way that the layers of the story unfolded. But it was never confusing and never was there a time when I wished that I could go back to a different section in time. That's a really difficult thing to achieve when utilizing a flashback-type style.
Like the description says, this book is about Grif and his somewhat inadequate size. Since jr. high this has been an issue for him and as a gay man, it's even more so. But through his relationships with two men, Tate and Wes, he comes to accept himself and his kinky side that plays into all of it.
My heart goes out to Grif, but wow...Tate and Wes. I loved them and yes, shed a few real tears over Tate too. But despite how it may sound, this is not a menage book. Tate and Wes both happen to Grif at different points in his life and they are both so incredible in their unyielding love for him. Neither man sees the issue that Grif sees in himself. They see him as the man that they love and that acceptance does amazing things for Grif.
I cannot tell you just how beautiful the love was in this story. It starts out as one thing that as a reader seems purely sexual, but as the story unfolds you begin to see all the layers of emotion and love and devotion. I cannot express enough how incredibly well the author layers the story. Each chapter is like a little gift to see deeper into how these men enriched Grif's life...in so many different ways.
I adored this book and cannot recommend it highly enough. As a romance reader this is everything I want in a love story. The incredible emotions and yes, there is plenty of hot, hot sexy moments too. Whoa, yeah....it earns every bit of its erotic heat rating. So good. I cannot wait for book #2, Wes's Denial.
