Review
How was this book so freaking cute?! Bowen and Kennedy are a magical duo and Iโll forever read anything they write. Their romances are the perfect mix of great characters, chemistry, steamy sex and jealousy inducing relationships.
Keaton was so freaking hot and nerdy! I loved that he had all this weird mating knowledge about animals it was so funny. Throw in the lobster print shorts and I was a goner from the moment he cracked a lobster joke. Luke was so broken down I just wanted him to be successful so badly. Heโs worked hard to achieve his dreams and had such a hard time opening up to Keaton and accepting help from others. Broke my dang heart. I enjoyed their journey with its many ups and downs.
The romance was the grumpy x sunshine trope that I love so much (maybe a slight enemies to lovers?). Keaton definitely have me golden retriever vibes while Luke compared himself to a surly alley cat which totally fit. It also made for a very interesting bed dynamic. Luke was definitely the dominant one, giving orders and demands which was incredibly hot. Then you have Keaton, my sweet cinnamon roll, who loved being bossed around but wasnโt afraid to stand up for himself and ask for what he wanted.
I love that the story doesnโt just end when they find out just who is in the other side of the phone screen. We get a whole story about two guys who are still trying to figure out life and love. I feel like Iโve being using the word โcuteโ too much in my reviews of these authors books lately but it truly was a cute story.
