Luke

Unexpected, Book 4

They say love comes from the most unexpected places. I found mine hiding in my bushes from the cops.

My life before Luke was a carefully structured routine. It was predictable and organized, just the way I like it. Some would call it boring, but I call it smart self-preservation. If there’s one thing that could threaten to bring it all crashing down, it’s Luke van Beek.

He swept into my world like a tropical cyclone, all hot and chaotic, and tore down my safeguards. Now I can’t seem to rid myself of this charming, larger-than-life, ridiculous man. He’s invaded my personal space, my mind, and my bed.

He’s tempting me in ways I haven’t been tempted before and I’m going to have to teach him a lesson about what happens to naughty boys when they misbehave.

But can my last remaining boundary, the wall I’ve built around my heart, withstand the man who lives to break all the rules? Either way, it seems, my life after Luke will never be the same.

Luke is a funny and steamy M/M romance that features a transgender main character and a grumpy/sunshine trope.

Love this series so much

Every book can be read as a stand-alone but the stories and narration are so good you’ll want to listen to them all in order! 💖🔥

Giggled out loud a few times 😂

I loved Luke and Elliott's story! I know trans is still a lot for some to fully and truly understand, and I think the author did an amazing job with both the physical and mental aspects throughout the story.
Love IS Love, but you must start with yourself so I enjoyed reading Elliott's full acceptance and love for who he is in and out.
And having a big loveable goof like Luke barging into his life ended up being exactly what he never knew he needed.

My comfort series

Every single book in this series has felt like a hug. I love each couple’s journey together to finding love within one another.

Omg, the audible narration for Luke's perspective makes him sound like Deadpool and I love it! he bumps into Elliot, a doctor in some Starbucks with blood trickling down his face. I haven't read the previous stories so I'm sure I'd find out how he got it if I read back but I didn't need to know how after getting Luke's personality right off the bat. Elliot is incredulous by his reaction to having a cut so bad that it might need stitches while Luke drinks his mocha with sprinkles. The romance is cute, how they bond and spend time together to cute, and they have a VERY health sex life through the book. My only critism is that I hate the perspective narration for Elliot's poverty. but other than that, I hope this author makes more like this in the future.

LOVE this series!

Luke // Unexpected 4 // Cora Rose

Cora Rose continues this fabulous opposites attract series with Luke. Luke is a chaotic, study Van Beek with just the right amount of crazy. He finds his obsession in Elliot, a stern, dominant, and guarded Doctor. Once Elliot acquires Luke, he can’t get rid of him, a Van Beek family trait 😜. While Luke and Elliot bring you the chaos, shminky steam, and obsessed vibes you expect from a CR book they also bring you compassionately written trans rep and self acceptance. Cannot recommend this book or series enough. Cora Rose just does not miss, y’all.
