(I binged this series all in a row, so I'm rating and reviewing it a whole)
high steam, extremely bingeable.
but a lot of tad's thoughts have not aged well.

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THIS BOOK CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT LIKE: BDSM AND SEX IN GENERAL
It's also an erotic m/m novel. (male/male)
This is my favorite volume out of the six. It has a lot of teasing, jealousy (my biggest guilty pleasure), heartbreak and Scott and Tad have a really good time.
Spoilers:
I really enjoyed Tad getting more comfortable with his sexuality and that he outed himself as gay. I liked when Scott and Tad finally spoke the truth:
-Scott doesn't want to hide, he wants, you know, to act like a every couple should act like in public. Holding hands, hugging, kissing and Scott is convinced that Tad isn't ready for this kind of affection in public.
- Tad tells him that his whole world got flipped around when he met him and that he wants to tell everyone that he's gay the next day, what Scott doesn't believe him
After that Scott says he can't have Tad around anymore because he's f*cking hurt.
The next day Tad has a hungover, his best friend Jay comes around and Tad tells him about Scott. And then Tad tells everyone but nobody is surprised. That's it. I really liked that. Everybody is okay with it. (We stan supportive friends in this house)

In book 5 of the "Up-Ending Tad" series we get to spend more time with Tad's and Scott's friends. I found that part of the novella particularly interesting. Otherwise Tad and Scott's relationship becomes more serious in this instalment and Scott finally opens up about his past while Tad decides to come out.

First, I think to really enjoy this last book in the series you need to read the others. I don't think you can give a fair shake to the arc of change unless you understand the journey. This is definitely one of the best Erotic Lit series I've read so far this year. It has given me everything, plus a story line, I want in an erotic read. The author has a way of sucking you into the room with the characters. Holding your breath when they do, etc. Makes for a submersion read.
Those who are looking for pure erotic you may be disappointed. You get more character development into how their behaviors mold the relationship. Throughout the series I have been able to connect with Tad, but it is told from his POV. In this book, we finally learn a bit about what makes Scott well Scott. There is pain point in the book. I think everyone can relate to mouth diarrhea moments in our lives. But the characters work it out and as the reader you get the full journey. Not just a suddenly forgive and forget.
I've enjoyed this read thoroughly. If you are going to pick this up, I recommend you start with the beginning. I'm looking forward to watching this author and reading future books.

Loved it, loved it, loved it!!! All through the beginning I was saying to my self. Tad's in love, Tad's in love, Tad's in love!! Tad finally pulls his shit together. The utter sweetness between Scott and Tad along with their hotness just bowled me over. The writing, "slicked up dick muzzles were a glorious thing" in part 5 and all the previous books is terrific. Looking forward to the next book.
