I am so dissapointed with this book, I was hoping for so much but instead what I got is a book that kept getting worse and worse as it went on. I read the last 20% of this book while raging and couldn't even enjoy them. I was just so mad at Derek (our main character) and his actions.
Here are some of the problems I have with it, I tried to do it in a way that there would not any spoilers so that anyone who wants to read this book is warned of whats to come, see if they are rea ...more

I loved this book. Maxim was sweet and courageous and strong. And although watching Derek struggle with no longer denying who he always had been was hard, and even at times frustrating, it also really made the book and the couple special. While this was Melanie Harlow's first m/m book, and co-written, it brought what I've come to expect from her, which is interesting characters you love and wish you could know or be friends with, sweet and sexy characters, and great writing. I had no doubt that

Ellen the bar owner felt bad so she calls her brother to ask him to take give him a place to stay the night. 36 year old Derek is going through the motions of life he is dating a woman he has no chemis

I would very much like to be able to rate this book at 3.5 stars, but the half-star ratings aren't available yet. There's no denying that the opening of this story is great. Derek's behavior is so on point, and Maxim is a perfect match for him. For the most part, their total interaction is great. The main problem I have with the story is the pacing. Things are just moving too fast. I don't mean the move from lust to love. I don't really care about that. In fact, I didn't have a problem believing

I was thrilled to receive an ARC of Harlow's newest co-written M/M novel. Harlow teamed up with David Romanov to give us a sexy M/M read and they delivered. The chemistry coming off the pages between Derek and Maxim is palpable. This story was so realistic for the world we live in today where humans struggle with identifying who they are and being comfortable enough to share that with the world. Derek struggles. He struggles with this picture of what he thought his life would be and with what he

Can I just say that I love LOVE this new duo? My goodness.
This is an amazing story of not only discovering the one you love, but discovering how to love yourself. The duo have created characters that are real, relatable, and fabulously sexy.
Derrick is a successful, single guy who is looking to create his perfect family: he has the house, now he needs the wife and kids. The problem is...he can't find a woman that gives him that "spark" he needs to move forward.
The story also follows Maxim, a t ...more

I liked it but I wish we got more about H is family and their reaction and feeling
This was a awesome m/m book I feel in love with m/m books awhile back and this was amazing. You have two guys one from Russia who just out of the blue comes to America to make something of himself and ends up having a lot of problems the first day he gets there you feel really bad for Maxium but he finds friends and one in particular is Derek he is older and a very clean person and have a lot of issues he doesn't want to face but when he looks into Maxium gorgeous eyes all things go out the door
