I have to admit I originally only picked this audiobook up because it was narrated by my 2 favorite male narrators. They brought Jamie and Wes to life with drama and self discovery as well as relevant LGBTQ fears of being outed and a heartwarming coming out to family story.

6+++++ HEART HAPPY STARS!!!!!
My heart can NOT handle this book! Seriously. First time I read it I LOVED it and now after going through my second read I love it even MORE!
While I had read a few other MM romance prior to reading this book the first time, this was the book that really got me hooked on the genre. And I mean, of course it did, this book is just absolute perfection.
I honestly don't even know what to write about this book. But I'll try... Wes and Jamie are hockey players who met at an elite hockey summer camp when they were thirteen years old. The boys room together every summer and are inseparable during their time together. During their last summer there as campers, the two make a bet that alters their friendships. Fortuatately, they run into each other in college for a game and end up re-connecting with each other as coaches at the same summer camp that they met.
God I just LOOOOVED Wes!! He's like a bad boy who's not really bad at all and I wanted was for him to get everything he wanted! Watching him struggle with the fact that he knows that he's loved Jamie since forever was so heart-wrenching!
If you like romance, you gotta read it! Sarina Bowen is the amazing and this is by far my favorite book from her.
6+++++ absolutely amazingly heart happy stars!

you know those romantic comedies you certainly cannot call a cinematography masterpiece or oscar worthy yet they never fail to warm your heart. it is kind of how this book feels like.
sure there is A LOT of porny bits in it. i was getting almost annoyed by so much sex (not even 16 year olds are that horny) but it was a fun read over all.
read it in a day!

Oddio ragazzi che storia carina e senza drammi in grande!! Jamie baby ti adoro tantissimo (anche Wes non è male dai). Lo stile è molto semplice e la trama, seppur non super originale, è molto coinvolgente. Poi dai insomma chi non adora vedere due manzi del genere innamorarsi? Voglio altre storie m/m scritte da queste due! ORA POSSIBILMENTE GRAZIE.
Why did it take me so long to finally start this book. I absolutely loved it and couldn't put it down. It was different than I expected as I was expecting Wes to be the asshole/badboy type but he was soft and fluffy and I absolutely loved it. I loved Jamie and how open he was with everything. I loved seeing the boys grow closer and it made me happy to see how supportive Jamies family was. My heart hurt for Wes and I loved seeing him grow closer to Jamie and have more people to lean on. Loved the spice and how it was quite low on angst. Loved the humour and banter between them both, they warmed my heart!
