Book
Blurb:
Ryder Daniels has spent the last year recovering from rejection: his parents
couldn’t
accept his sexuality and his lover chose drugs over his love. The only bright
lights in his life are his younger brother and his rescued pit bull. But now
his mother's punishment for his lifestyle has cut him off from his brother he
loves so deeply. Devastated, he throws himself into the work of the Pit Bull
Foundation he and his friends started.
Jason
Mallory can no longer hide the dissatisfaction of his relationship with his
longtime girlfriend. When her marriage ultimatum pushes him to break things
off, he's determined not to jump into the dating scene. But when a group of
injured pit bulls are found on his construction site, he can’t forget the guy
who shows up to help.
After
Jason adopts one of the dogs, he and Ryder become fast friends—until one night,
Ryder lets down his guard and Jason recognizes his desire. Soon, they can’t deny the passion
between them but will family differences and ugly prejudices keep them apart,
or can they fight to prove that love is precious, no matter the flavor?
Felice
Stevens has always been a romantic at heart. She believes that while life is
tough, there is always a happy ending just around the corner. She started
reading traditional historical romances when she was a teenager, then life and
law school got in the way. It wasn’t until she picked up a copy of
Bertrice Small and became swept away to Queen Elizabeth’s court that her
interest in romance novels became renewed.
But
somewhere along the way, her tastes shifted. While she still enjoys a juicy
Historical romance, she began experimenting with newer, more cutting edge
genres and discovered the world of Male/Male romance. And once she picked up
her first, she became so enamored of the authors, the character-driven stories
and the overwhelming emotion of the books, she knew she wanted to write her
own.
Felice
lives in New York City with her husband and two children and hopefully soon a
cat of her own. Her day begins with a lot of caffeine and ends with a glass or
two of red wine. She practices law but daydreams of a time when she can sit by
a beach somewhere and write beautiful stories of men falling in love. Although
there is bound to be angst along the way, a Happily Ever After is always
guaranteed.
MY REVIEW:
5 STARS:
I had
the great privileged of reading this as an ARC!This book was wonderful.
Emotions were spot on with the writing and the plot was terrific. Felice
has created a stunning world here filled with hurts and heals. Love and
triumph. I totally recommend this book to anyone looking for a love
story built on loyalty and love.
Two brothers desperate to just BE BROTHERS to simply love each other and fill in the blanks anyone with a broken family has felt.
