Wonderful roommates to lovers romance

This is a well written, well paced book about two complex characters who find love with each other. There are huge hurdles for them to overcome before their forever family is formed.

Bates and Vince, two very different people, form a connection when they become roommates. That connection takes a huge amount of nurturing before the chemistry between them ignites. They are both very likeable characters and at times my heart went out to them. I was truly invested in their story and was feeling all of their emotions. The heat level turned up a notch or two once they jumped those hurdles and decided to take a chance on each other.

This is book 2 in the series but can be read as a standalone. Characters from the first book do feature in this one.

If you enjoy books with a touch of angst, a person who decides to live their authentic life, and a romantic HEA, then this is for you.

I’ve read this author before. This is a mm contemporary romance story set in the USA. Main characters are Bates and Vince. Little baby River steals the show. They both take a different path to HEA but it’s not forced. I’ll read more from this author.
