The Good Boys Club

Mythical Mishaps, Book 2

De: Jemma Croft

Narrado por: Keval Shah, Nathan Wolfe

Mash Cassidy, smooth-talking werewolf and notorious ladies' man, has been running from his responsibilities and his pack for fifteen years. But with Harvest Fest only weeks away, Alpha's ordering him to return home, and she won't take no for an answer. It's time for him to grow up and mate with a nice werewolf girl. In fact, Alpha already has one in mind.

But Mash wasn't built for settling down, and in a desperate move to keep Alpha off his back, he drags his wolf shifter best friend Cian into another of his harebrained schemes: pretend to be a werewolf and pose as his fake-mate for two whole months.

What could go wrong? They're just friends, and Mash definitely hasn't been developing unusual feelings for him.

Cian Barker, hipster wolf shifter and tech whiz, has been in love with his best friend since the day they met at uni. It doesn't matter that Mash is straight and completely unobtainable; Cian is just happy to have him in his life.

But when Mash asks him to be his fake-mate during the family's Harvest Fest celebration, Cian might have reached his limits with how far he'll go for Mash, at least until he's faced with his favourite pair of puppy-dog eyes. The ones he just can't seem to resist.

It'll be fine. Cian can pretend—he's been pretending for their entire friendship. Besides, it's not like Mash will ever love him back.

The Good Boys Club is an MM best-friends-to-lovers paranormal romance, and the second in the Mythical Mishaps series of interconnected standalones. Expect the usual silliness, slow burn, lots of pining, plenty of scent marking, and a ton of praise for the bestest boy in the Eight and a Half Kingdoms.

Unique and Fun

Bought this book after absolutely loving Jenna Croft’s Shroom For Improvement. I love her writing style that incorporates nature facts with humor. She invents a unique twist on werewolf culture and genetics (Mash) compared to were shifter (Cian). Mash and Cian’s sexual dynamics were a surprise, which I won’t spoil since you’re in for a treat about 2/3 into the story. Great narration!

WOW

What a romance! pining, best friends to lovers, found family, gay awakening. everything I love in a good room com. It gave Amazon's version of Red White & Royal Blue (the movie not the book), but way more funny and with a great sci-fi twist. my new favorite gay romcom. 10 out of 10.

☠️

I can’t with how funny this book is!! Jemma Croft is not only such a sweet author but I love her humor!! This book is everything I needed today!

The Goodest Good Boys

I love these two idiots more than is likely normal. Jemma is one of my absolute favorite authors - the humor that she infuses into every book is one of my favorite things to read. I also love that she's not afraid to get a little weird - which she absolute does here. Cillian and Mash are 100% one of my favorite fictional couples and I will absolutely be re-reading this book several times.

Happy Love Story

Interesting love story with realistic characters. I liked the development of Mash as a person. It felt genuine yet surprised me at times.

At times I thought the characters might realize they love each other a bit sooner, but I was so enjoying the story, the setting, the characters, that I didn’t mind that they seemed to be a bit thick as to one another’s true feelings.

The ending was lovely. The whole story was good.

The only thing I didn’t like was the scene with Cyan’s parents. They were never shown to me to be BAD people. Yet they are treated poorly in the final scene they appear in. It seemed very unnecessary to me. I was given them as snobbish, somewhat inflexible people but I was also presented to them as people who care enough about their son that they mostly keep their disapproval of his choices to themselves.

This one jarring note ruined a bit of my joy in the book. But that joy did flare back up with the final mention of my favorite character so far of this author: Gideon, the Mothman. I hope that bit of foreshadowing does mean a new book in this series! I shall preorder if that’s the case. :)
