Unexpectedly I enjoyed it, I thought I would hate it after the first 30% and I already put it down for a while. I'm not a person who's enjoying books with high spice level easily, especially when it begins early in the book so it wasn't a good start.
Moving on I'm a sucker for I wanna ruin our friendship, we should be lovers instead vibes, I'm in love with Kenne and Aspen friendship and chemistry.. They're so cute more like soulmates. And everything happened between them was so realistic for me.
Although some moments was insufferable, and I get bored many times while reading. But I'm glad I didn't hate it at the end, and 100% it's better than Iced out.
His hands grip the front of my shirt, curling it in his fists to pull me closer. Closer than he should ever dare. Closer than I should let him, out of self-preservation and fear alone. But how can I be afraid when everything about him screams things like safety and security and home?

My currently readings are so dark, so I need a sweet pause, and no thing is sweeter than best friends to lovers.

Now I'm the one who abandoned with dried emotions, Credit goes to Luke and London cutie healthy relationship and their butterfly kisses. I can't resist the butterfly kisses, ever!
*** “I think,” he began, “you’re the man I was dreaming about.” Another kiss, folded into my hand. “You’re the man I dreamed about all those years ago when I was struggling to find myself. You’re him. You’re the man I’ve been searching for my whole life.”
*** “I haven’t shown anyone my drawings in eleven years.” “I’m honored.” “I also haven’t drawn in eleven years.” I quirked a smile back at him before my nerves stole it away. “You brought this back for me. You brought everything back for me. You’ve given me my life back, Landon. You’ve given me my son back.”
*** “I’m head over heels for you, Landon. You came into my life and flipped my world upside down. Everything has meaning again. I can’t get you out of my head. Your smile and your laugh have become my sun and my moon. You brought color into my world.”...more
I'm a friends to lovers girl, and by that I mean I would read the most cliché cringe story ever, just because they're friends.
I had high expectationsI'm a friends to lovers girl, and by that I mean I would read the most cliché cringe story ever, just because they're friends.
I had high expectations, the tropes is my favorite, the MC'S appearance in the previous book was interesting but I ended have the same thoughts about the first book.
I really adore these two authors, they write the easiest books to read in the world but I'm sick of the smut, it's too much.. it ruining the story because it'so superficial with no emotions. So excuse me I will continue the series but I will never stop complaining about the very early sex, cuz you know it only made the relationship physical to me.
Aside from the smut I didn't hate anything, but also I didn't love anything.. the book felt flat at many times.
And Dex jumping suddenly from being straight asf to making out with Treppy without any introductions. Not the relationship development I was expecting. Plus at the beginning the both of them were really annoying then they become annoyingly horny in the rest of the book. Thank you very much.
I liked the plot though, but it would also done better because we're talking about two men almost in their thirty's, not two teenagers who decided to marry each otherjust for the marriage idea.
The series is addictive, and the vibes are really good especially the friends group.
But Dex and Tripp? They really disappointed me, I was expecting higher chemistry from them.
*** “I will accept retirement when my time comes, but one thing I won’t be able to live without is him. Hockey is my present. Dex is my future.”
*** “You deserve to bring a man to his knees,” I shout over the music. “And you do with me. Every day. You’re amazing, and I can’t believe I’m the one you chose, even when you thought that meant choosing nothing.”...more

Sorry for Mols and Seven, you're down to the second place now. Because Rush and Hunter?
They're the best, They're perfection. Can't describe how much I loved them.
The beginning was a little bit embarrassing and hilarious at the same time, I became so curious to know how they will get there revenge, turned out they simply fall in love. My favorite part obviously.
And I will say it to the hundredth time; Saxon James is the queen of the vulnerable and cute MMCs, She knows how to write men with so soft sides and unique personalities.
And she wrote Rush character her in a fantastic way. I loved him so much, related to him most of the time. He's the best.
As usual the friends group was so cute, So excited to Madden's book! And I really hope to get Xander's also.
Rory Miller is the best Stephanie Archer MMC, hands down.
I loved the chemistry between him and Hazel so much. I was craving a cute book like that.

“What the fuck is that?” He sighs happily, smiling down at me. “It’s you.” It’s a dragon. I blink at the black lines stretching over his ridged muscles and swallow. Alarm bells ring in my head but he takes my face in his hands, smiling down at me. “Because you’re my tiny fire-breathing dragon,” he murmurs. “Mine.”

I'm not ready to say goodbye yet!
Will and Way take their own place inside my heart and in my head.
This book was better than the first one, all the things I hated was fixed here, and it's incredible.
Way character development really affected me, his relationship with Will and how it's so realistic, was built step by step.. They both suffered alot, They deserve all the happiness and the good things in the world.
Will and Way story touched my heart, Changed my vision toward many things in my life.. reminderd me to be more grateful toward my own life even if it's miserable sometimes, showed me honest.. true love story. Story written with pain, tears and butterflies kiss.
I loved how much this duo hold many emotions and messages. A long healing journey I really enjoyed, even if I had tinny objections about it.
The lost boys will find their way to the sun, to a new start. And I will be more than happy to read about their own stories.
“I’m your trigger.” I blink at him. He gestures to my chest and smiles grimly. “And you’re mine.”
***
“Every day,” he whispers against my lips a second later. “I’ll prove to you every day I’m not going anywhere. Even… even if it gets to be too much sometimes, I’ll always, always find my way back to you.”
***
That stubborn, reckless heart of his, beating heavily against my chest. Way and Will, Will and Way… Two halves of a fucking whole. Always.
*** There might be a lot I wish I could change right now—so many things I wish I could go back and do differently, just to have a little more time. But I don’t regret him. Will. Never Will. And that’s all that matters. I don’t regret a second of our story—what led up to this—because it’s ours. And regretting any of it would just give my dad more than he’s already taken. Even if all we have is the little time we had together, I wouldn’t trade it for anything in this godforsaken world.

Let's hope I will be okay after finishing this....more

This series is just addiction, I wasn't excited to Keller and Will story, but somehow I really enjoyed it like the rest of the series and couldn't put it down.
I love Keller and Will together, They were so cute and lovely.. I was intending to give the book higher rate but the emotional part sucks at some point in the story, and the smut was mehh. I really hate it and skipped most of it. Also the confessing scene, it didn't show Will feelings as strong as it was in his own mind, and I was waiting for this scene for so long to just see how Keller will react, but it turns out like it's not a new information, and the guy having a crush on him for years is a normal affair. So it disappointed me so much.
The many times that Molly was mentioned at didn't bother me as I was expected, He had a role in their relationship without being their because they both care too much about him. So even if I hate Molly in the others book I think I will start to changing my mind, especially after readingThe husband hoax and falling for Seven, I bet they will be a hilarious couple.
“He’s the most sexy man I’ve ever met, but when Keller looks at me, with complete, one hundred percent attention, it’s not even about appearance. It’s just him. And the way he doesn’t even realize he’s my whole world.”...more
I had high expectations, okay? At the beginning I was very interested, but suddenly the last time they 3.75⭐
This leaves me a little bit disappointed.
I had high expectations, okay? At the beginning I was very interested, but suddenly the last time they saw each others was when they were eleven. I don't know about other people but for me, eleven years old not a suitable age for this deep truma and strange events, How they even remember? How could a kiss between two eleven years old boys does all that??
But moving on, I was trying to imagine them in different age to just let it go and can be convinced with all the plot line.
The slow burn was really really slow, in a toxic way.. Their relationship was getting on my nerves. Sometimes I had to force my self to stop reading and just chill down.
Waylon.. I can't talk about him without feeling guilty, but hear me out I hated him, so much honestly. I respect his own truma.. I crashed for hearing what happened to him, but why he's doing this to Will? Why he's accepting every one but him? Why he was blaming him about something he never did? He said to him at the last chapter: “It’s like you like being my own personal punching bag,” he says, almost softly, dipping just the tip of his finger under my shirt. “It’s like you want me to hurt you.” Fine boy, you're really using him as your own punch bag just because he care about you, so you direct your anger toward him. At some points I really wish I could have Will's patience, cuz when I'm trying to put myself at his place I couldn't handle all of this in my head, I wish he walked away.. selfish move I know but he also is hurting, and in my own opinion Waylon never cares if he's alright or not.. and I fucking hate it, he deserves more respect from Waylon than what he get, he never let him down, but sometimes I hope he's just let go.
Maybe it's not a fair pov, but being hurt never was an excuse to hurt someone who's loving you. And Waylon did this in every possible way. Still I'm really hurting for him but I'm so angry with him too.
Will.. I will not way he's a saint or something, but I love the man, as I said he's so patient I'm envying him already. At the beginning I thought about him differently but after I knowed the reason why Waylon is acting like that toward him, I just couldn't.. my poor sweet boy, comparing with Waylon I know he didn't suffer that much, but we didn't measure the human emotions this way. All I can think about is him being a broken kid think his best friend is disgusted by him, and as a broken adult who lost his boyfriend and treated in a shity way by his ex best friend. Please what does he done wrong?
But despite my emotions toward both of them I think they just fit this way, their relationship is not normal.. never did never be. All I'm hoping for is Waylon just be open with Will without the afterward cruel reaction. Stop hiding from the man who loves him the most, I know he told him everything but yet I don't feel like he trust him much, like he's ready to just let Will hold him tightly at his worst.
This was really toxic, exhausting read. But I really enjoyed it.. and I'm so excited for book 2. Just hope Waylon will not go back to his closed personality after the cliffhanger. I'm not reassured.
”It’s like he knew exactly what to say. Like he pulled the words right out of my soul, and spat them back at me. Hitting me right where it hurts. Right where I’d fucking feel for him.”
“There’re a lot of meanings behind this symbol, but that’s the one I chose for myself. Where there’s a will, there’s a way.” And my heart... It. Just. Explodes.
Much better than the previous book, but didn't reach Roommate arrangement level though.

Much better than the previous book, but didn't reach Roommate arrangement level though.
Ford and Orson were surprisingly different in their own book, in a good way fortunately. Their relationship was interesting, has a constant healthy development.
Orson.. The most mature person in the DMC, also the former stripper dancer and the owner of the flowers shop. The man's personality is so unique and messy. I loved his thoughts and talks about his dead wife.. I adore when a writer made a character fall in love twice without denying his emotions to the first person and Continue Cherishing her memories.
Ford was unexpected, funny and flirty.. and had a big heart. I loved Orson more than him but I found him so charming and loveable.
Molly drama was unbelievable, especially him being in his mid twenties and acting like a teenager. I hope he becomes more mature in his own book.
Sometimes there were cute fluffy moments, but the book wasn't in the cuteness level I was expecting from the reviews.
So it was a good read, healed the disappointment from Platonic book rule and gave me a nice time.
“Nothing could compete with my love of cars. But I get the feeling Orson wouldn’t try to. And as I watch him laughing with one of the littlies, I also know … well, he wouldn’t have to.”...more

Who's this man? And where's my sweet Griff from book one??
I'm really can't relate that he was the same Griff in Roommate arrangement, He was funny there.. I loved him so much and I was excited for his book but now? It seems like he's another person, unmature with no self confidence.
And honestly what's wrong with Heath?? I couldn't stand the man tell the ending.
Griff and Heath relationship wasn't normal, not a healthy friendship; it's like Heath is only baby sitting Griff during the book. Pushing him to change, his personality.. his appearance. Pushing him to think that he must has sex and if he doesn't he's not normal. Heath annoyed me so much, he was criticizing Griff without even noticing, making him feel more inscure.
This book didn't get me like the first one, the most thing I loved about Payne and Beau's relationship was the appreciation between them both without conditions , and it's contrast was here so yeah I didn't like it as I was expecting to which is really disappointing.
But I'm optimistic about Budding attraction, and I'm hoping that Orson will be the mature hot man I'm expecting him to be.

I loved everything about Molly and Seven, and as a Molly's hater f4.25⭐
This is the best Saxon James book so far.
It's warm.. emotional.. funny.. hot.
I loved everything about Molly and Seven, and as a Molly's hater from The divorced men club series I'm really impressed, I never expected to love him that much, he's personality was so interesting here, the opposite from the dull one from the other books.
The development of their characters was really enjoyable to read about. The small details between them warmed my heart literally. The hugs, The dates.. The tattoo.. The comic.. The vegetables pie. Every thing was perfect.
I really loved this book, and Xander!! OMG I need a book about him please. Plus all the boys they're really cute. I adore their relationship together.
Keller appearance made me smile hardly, I love the man.

As much as I’m starting to feel things for him, there’s no way I’m going to drag someone this amazing into a relationship with someone as damaged as me. If people think I’m protective of Xander, that’s nothing to how I’d be with someone like Molly. Someone so sweet, and pure, and innocent. I’d suffocate him....more

But I think this is the speciaThis was literally a whole mess.. a very good mess though, I don't know what I liked and what I don't about it anymore. But I think this is the special thing about this book; it makes me feel angry and heart warming, sad and happy, hating the characters and falling in love with them. All at the same time.
The writing was so good, some quotes had punched my heart literally.
“Everywhere I turn... I breathe you in and bleed you out. ”
It wasn't perfect, and at some points Lennon and Phoenix really pissed me off, very hard! and I done nothing except continue reading. Cuz it's an addiction.. no thing more to say.
“It’s all coming together. But inside I’m unraveling. Every time I sing the song I want to puke, because they aren’t my words. They’re yours. Everything I have is yours. Including the fucked-up thing in my chest. I don’t know how I’m supposed to enjoy any of this without you. I’m still lying here... In the mess I made.”...more

“You’re the most perfectly un-normal person I’ve ever met.”
This quote highly explain why I loved the book. I'm more like a Beau person, with my fucked up head and the different attitude that most of people can't get along with. So watching someone has the same issues as me be loved in this way was incredible.
The roommates to loves trope always gets me, and it done so good here. Most of the MM romance I have read always focusing on the smut more than anything, so I end up empty without involving emotionally with the characters or the story, but this didn't happen this time.. I loved Payne and Beau's relationship, it takes its time to grow with no rush. Both of them were trying to make it work.. even if Beau was more in love and made more effort, but Payne also was a good guy. He didn't annoy me or disrespect Beau's emotions toward him, he understood him like no one else do and appreciate him with all of his flaws.. he hold him in his lowest.. prioritizing the important stuff to beau even if it's not priority to him, and his understanding of the difference between their character with full appreciation made me love him more.
I liked the relationships and the emotional parts more than anything in the book, Specifically the small realistic details.. like Beau's messy clothes, the insecures of him and Payne. The story was also easy going but also not so special as a plot.. The idea of the DMC made it more fun though. And I'm so excited to read the rest of the books in the series....more

I loved Powerless. But not as much 4.75⭐
This is my comfort relationship and couple. I'm a friends to lovers girly, so this book was everything to me.
I loved Powerless. But not as much as I loved the first two books; I was expecting more things than I got, like more details about Jasper past.. more ballet stuff. There was something lacking but not too bad to make me give it a low rate.
Jasper.. I'm so related to Jasper, so in love with Jasper, so stunned by Jasper's dominant and soft personality at the same time. I never get attached to a MMC because we have many things in common until Jasper. He's so sweet, so traumatized and so perfect
Sloane was such a quite character comparing with Willa and Summer, but she was different in her own way. And I loved how she got her old personality back and demanded her needs. Also she was Jasper's number one supporter which was so cute honestly.
My favorite part about this book was that it was so emotional, Jasper and Sloan felt like soulmate, a ying yang who never can fall apart. And the relationship between Jasper and the Eatons was just perfection. Especially Beau and Harvey.. their scenes make me almost cry from joy and affection.
“I love you, Sloane Winthrop. I always have. I love you so damn hard I don’t even know what to do with it. You’re my person. And I think I’m yours too.”...more
