This is the first gay romance book I've read. And I loved it. I love Wes and Jamie so much. This hit every trope I like in romance books. Friends to lovers, mostly. Also forbidden love, and public "can't keep my hands off you" sex/making out. It was hot, so freaking hot. I love how both Jamie's struggle with his sexuality, and Wes's struggle with thinking he was being a shit friend, played out. I thoroughly enjoyed this read. Can't articulate why it's not a five for me. Honestly, I can't.
