Boyfriend Without Benefits

The Jilted Exes' Club, Book 3

Anthony

I’m the last single member of the Jilted Exes’ Club, and I have no plans to change that.

I’m fulfilled with my work at the club, dance classes, yoga, and the Exes. Plus, I’ve been extremely preoccupied with one Kason Maddox, the LA Rebels’ goalie. Let’s just say that since we’ve become friends, my eyes might drift in his general direction a little too much. But it’s only looking. And looking never harmed anyone....

Eventually, our texting sessions lead to dinners out and ending our nights watching our favorite shows. But when the paparazzi catch sight of us and the photos go viral, I suddenly find out I’ve had a boyfriend and didn’t know—a boyfriend without the benefits. And I’m thinking we should reconsider the benefits in this relationship if we are going to be in one.

Kason

So…I thought we were dating. Turns out, the guy I was dating had no idea that’s what we were doing. Friend-zoned without even knowing it. Cool. The equivalent of taking a puck to the face.

But due to an innocent little photo or two, now everyone thinks we’re together, so we have three choices:

1- Stop hanging out to silence the rumors.
2- Hang out as friends and ignore the gossip blogs.
3- Start dating—and both of us are aware of said dating this time.

I know which one I’m rooting for. And if I have to use a little dirty talk and some praise to shift things in my favor, I’m game.

🥹 So Sweet You’ll get a Sugar High!

Both MM characters were introduced in Book 1, and like Book 1, this one is hockey related. Kason Maddox is the goalie for the LA Rebels, and is Rylan Pierce’s bff from Book 1, “Good Pucking Luck.”

Anthony is the last unattached member of the Jilted Exes Club.

Kason is simply the best. He’s like Rylan in his kindness and devotion, yet not as flamboyant or cocky. It’s impossible not to fall in love with Kason Maddox.

Anthony is a broken man who turned to dance to cope with being abandoned by his mom and unwanted by his uncle and aunt who raised him.
He has never felt wanted or valued for anything other than hookups.

While not as funny as Rylan & Hayes’ story, and not as syrupy sweet as Donovan & Eric’s, this one fits comfortably between the two with a little more drama from the villain of the series. Said villain finally gets what he deserves and loose ends from the previous books are wrapped up nicely in the epilogue.

The audiobook is phenomenal. Tim Paige gives a wonderful performance narrating this series. Highly recommend!

Great addition to a fantastic series

The Jilted Exes has been one of my favorite series. This addition is no exception. Sweet Antony and loving Kaysen deserve each other’s love so much.
