Review

4.5 stars!

Oh, this book is so much fun! The writing combination of Bowen and Kennedy is an absolute dream, and this book is both funny and heartfelt, with a chemistry-filled m/m enemies-to-lovers romance that is absolutely gorgeous. An NA read that is a complete standalone, I devoured this book and I loved Keaton and Luke’s story so much.

Keaton is a college student who is gorgeous, smart and wealthy. He plays football, he’s passionate about his studies, and he’s running for president of his fraternity. He also has a long-term girlfriend who wants a threesome for her birthday. Always wanting to be supportive, and secretly really curious to explore something a bit outside of his ‘normal’, Keaton signs up with a hook-up app and meets a man that sparks his interest.

Luke’s background couldn’t be more different from Keaton’s. His family life is difficult, he is at college only because he scored a full scholarship, and his work as a stripper barely gets him by. He’s also bisexual and enjoys varied and random hook-ups, with no interest in relationships. And he is intrigued by the man he meets on his hook-up app looking for a threesome. Luke isn’t a stranger to that sort of set-up, and his honesty is confronting but so refreshing, but there’s something about the online newbie that attracts him.

Logging out of the app last night was painfully hard. So was the state of my dick. You have no idea how hot it is helping a guy explore his sexuality.

A wild flirtation soon begins that is funny, sexy and full of chemistry and fantastic banter, and as they get to know each other from a distance, I could not get enough of the wonderful back-and-forth.

SinnerThree: … Tell me more about lobster sex, if you want. I’m not picky about sex talk as long as someone’s fucking.
I laugh softly. This guy’s funny, I’ll give him that.
LobsterShorts: I’m fresh out of lobster sex facts atm. BUT…lemme tell you about sea slugs.
SinnerThree: Omg yes. I can’t wait for this. Hold on. Let me undo my pants.

But everything changes when Keaton and Luke finally figure out that they actually know each other in real life. In fact, they are neighbours in the same fraternity… and they hate each other. What follows is a fun, flirtatious and seriously sexy story as these two enemies become something so much more.

I told Luke that most of me wants to hook up with him again. That’s not the case anymore. All of me wants it. Right here, right now—I’ve never wanted anything, or anyone, more.
Goodbye, sexual confusion. Because confused is the last thing I’m feeling at the moment. There’s no other way around it—I like dudes.

I won’t go in to details, because you just need to dive in and experience this one. It’s not only a gorgeous romance where two very different people finding something special together, but it’s a great character story with fantastic growth and development as these two guys figure themselves out, learn to follow their hearts and fight for what they want.

What was I ever thinking? I need this man. And even if being half a couple doesn’t come easily to me, I have to try. Nobody has ever gotten under my skin the way he does. Nobody has ever needed me the way he does.
Not one person.
It’s terrifying.

It’s emotional at times, but mostly it’s a wildly entertaining read, and I fell hard for both Keaton and Luke. They are both so different, with well-defined voices, and the authors write them so well! The laugh-out-loud humour is perfectly blended with the emotion, and the love story is sexy and fun, and I couldn’t get enough of these two together!
