Gone for You by Riley Hart
4.0
4.5 stars
Riley Hart is hands down one of my favorite friends-to-lovers authors. She just nails it…the fluttery feeling you get in your stomach when they are about to kiss for the first time and change everything; or the empathy you feel when one of the two is jealous that the other is going out with someone else.
These guys are complete opposites. Dare is the life of the party, thrill seeking, don’t get attached to anyone at all costs kind of guy. We find out it’s a defense mechanism and a way to deal with his really crappy upbringing. Austin is a steady, stable, wants to settle down and be loved kind of guy. They are perfect for each other and don’t see it until a drunken kiss. I absolutely love them together.
“What are you doing?” Austin asked before Dare pulled one of his shoes off, then his sock. He went to the other next.
“I don’t know,” Dare answered honestly. He planned to fuck Austin, that was for sure, but this was different than his regular lays. “I just want to savor you,” he added, his voice hoarse.
“Jesus Christ, Dare, do you know what you’re doing to me? You’re turning my brain into mush. I’m all fucking heart when it comes to you; do you hear what I’m saying?”
Dare couldn’t answer, but he did hear him. The same feelings were searing through his own insides. He looked up at Austin and nodded before pulling his other shoe and sock off. Right now all he wanted to do was cherish Austin…
This appears to be the start of a series and while we could end with this novella and be perfectly happy, I really hope we see them again. And Alexander needs a book in a couple of years
