Resumen del Editor

Brighton Walker

I'm a bit of a mess. I'm hyperactive, but lazy at the same time. I apparently have an annoying pen-tapping problem. I can't cook even pre-made meals without a major catastrophe happening, and I'm a little on the forgetful side. All reasons having a roommate isn't really a great idea. Which makes it a bit of a problem when my aunt kicks me out of the house that I have been living in since I was born. Now I need a place to live, and Knox, one of my closest friends and the man who stole my heart almost from the moment I met him, is kind enough to offer the spare room in his house, but I just know I'm going to f--k this up. I'm just waiting for the day when the crazy ball of reckless energy that surrounds me at every turn is going to bounce right off of Knox's head and mess up his routine life.

Knox Green

I am a man of routine, and I don't like for that routine to be interrupted...with the exception of it being interrupted by Brighton. He is funny and sweet and gorgeous, and hates walking with the type of dedication professional athletes put into their career, which is why I usually carry him everywhere. When Brighton needs help with a place to live, I am more than happy to take him in. Spending time with the man has never been a hardship, and my feelings for him aside, having someone around all the time would be nice. I might not have been prepared for the type of life having him in my house has become, but even with one catastrophe after another, my feelings for him grow daily. Now if I could just find a way to prove to him that I won't ditch him at the first sign of trouble.

As with all my books, this series is pretty fluffy. Not much angst at all, no cheating and definitely a happy ending! Meant to be a light-hearted story to make you laugh...or at least smile.

Enjoy!

Not my fave book in the series, but a good series nonetheless!

I cannot tell you how immensely happy I am that JD Light ditched K Obi as a narrator. Especially as she’s been releasing some of her newer series on Audible and I would have been bummed to miss out on them. This is probably one of my favorite series of hers and James Olivas is probably the best out of the different narrators she’s been trying out. I hope he sticks around to do the rest! Bring on book 3!

Excerpt was best part

This story was ok, but it didn't meet my expectations for humor that developed because of the excerpt. Still, there were maybe 2 other cute, smile-worthy brief moments.
There was 1 intercourse scene late in the story, with about 25 min left, and 1 brief masturbation scene near late midpoint.

The main characters were ok. The M & M were gym instructors and trainers in the same gym and close friends with Knox being a huge guy and Bright being a small guy. Knox was too good to be true.  And Brighton's (aka Bright) insecurities were extreme, and his intense dislike of walking while also being a dancer and yoga instructor was ridiculous, which made him less likable.

It's not filled with angst even with the understandable unknowns and uncertainty. So the manufactured misunderstanding near the end was unnecessary and dumb. Thankfully it was short-lived.

The narrator did a fine job. There were only 2 brief appearances of a woman, so really only male characters had to be done. The male voices differed sufficiently though not much.
