Wow, I really do be lovin’ the Ballsy Boys. This was pure fire; the perfect enemies to lovers with little angst. The progression of Micah and Peter’s relationship was just....*chef’s kiss* perfection!!!
And, oh, how I wish Ballsy Boys was real so I could watch that amazingly sexy 10-part series of Tank and Brewer

4.5 Stars so rounding up to 5
This potential couple was one of the reasons I stuck with the series. I didn’t love book one but the hints at future match-ups had me intrigued and the authors truly delivered with this one. Most of the issues I had with book one are absent in this book and I really loved this story. The pacing of this book was much better. The relationship between Tank and Brewer is a slow and steady build. Their story is genuine and heartwarming.
These guys seem to really hate each other when we first meet them and this hate apparently started when they first met. They are opposites and just rub each other the wrong way. Brewer is the happy-go-lucky party f*ckboy and Tank is the super serious, have no fun grumpy, grizzly giant. They constantly poke each other and push the other’s buttons. And oh, the explosive potential of them working together on-screen and what they must do off-screen is titillating. I loved watching them uncover the real men behind the masks. The transition of enemies to friends to lovers was organic and fascinating to watch. They bring out the best in each other and balance each other perfectly. They have amazing sexual chemistry but they discover emotional chemistry unlike any other.
The side characters are a big part of the story without taking the focus from Tank and Brewer and the hint of future stories will keep me coming back. This book is absolutely a must read in my book!

Fake-boyfriends is not my favorite trope, but these characters are deep and likeable, and after the initial hate between them passes, they're a really great pairing.
The actual story is down to earth and believable, and I really like the Ballsy Boys universe and the friendships there.

This is kind of a classic enemies-to-lovers story, with a little bit of fake boyfriends thrown in for good measure. I want to take both characters home and feed them a big bowl of soup. Not quite sure why this one rose above a 3-star rating for me, but I very much enjoyed it.
