Mixed emotions on this one. Very enjoyable to read. A bit slow and predictable at times ( )

DNF at around 16%. Good writing. Good characters up to a point.

I've hit that point.

There is only so much glacial action I can take during a Very Common Trope before I want to punch the more obstinate main character. He has reasons, but I don't care anymore, get me out of this tedium. ( )

Well, this was not what I was expecting, I couldn't see the supposed chemistry between them so the book was so boring to me, not worth it. ( )

This was fantastic! I have really enjoyed both Sarina Bowen’s and Lauren Blakely’s books in the past so when I heard that they had written a book together, I knew that I had to get my hands on a copy. It was just as good as I had hoped it would be. I couldn’t help but cheer Mark and Asher on as they worked towards their happily ever after.

Mark is a recently divorced single father. He works in finance and hasn’t met a spreadsheet he doesn’t like. Asher is a former professional soccer, or football as he calls it, star turned photographer. He leads a much more glamourous life and isn’t quite sure what to make of the straight-laced man pushing all of his buttons. When Mark’s sister decides to marry Asher’s best friend, these two men are both named Best Men and are asked to work together to get everything set up for the wedding the week before the ceremony. They end up getting a lot more more than they bargained for during their trip to Miami.

The chemistry between Mark and Asher was off the charts. I loved each of these characters and thought that they were so much better together than they were apart. It was great seeing Mark let loose with Asher and I loved how they both seemed to trust each other with anything. If you are looking for a book with a lot of steam, this book would certainly qualify. They really just seemed to be perfect for each other and I couldn’t wait to see them figure out how to make things work.

I would highly recommend this book to others. This was a fantastic MM romance filled with a lot of heat, heart, and characters that left me swooning. I could see myself picking up the audio of this one in the future so that I can experience the story all over again. I will be on the lookout for future collaborations from this pair of authors.

I received a digital review copy of this book from the publicist/authors. ( )
