Another winner in this fantastic series from two of my favourite authors! I don't know how they do it but their stories are just so entertaining, drawing you in into it's grasp right from the start meaning that I finally finished at 2.20am :-)
Campy and Jackson finally get their story told and what a roller-coaster it is. Campy has a lot of secrets weighing on his shoulders and his new roommate, Jackson, is just too much of a temptation to ignore. He offers a supportive friendship and his Texan charm doesn't do any harm either. There's a fair bit of dancing around but all of it is done with class and your heart just melts when it comes to the two men together, even just as friends. This story takes place alongside the previous ones so if you are following the series, we read things that have already happened but from Campy or Jackson's POV. I love how integrated all of the Ballsy Boys men are. Though they are not constantly living in each others pockets, they are still relevant in each other's stories and the friendship and support that they all give each other is so important to uplifting our current MC's.
Nora and K.M. are one of my favourite writing teams. The characters are given such endearing qualities, making you fall in love with them and struggles that they are go through are easy to relate to whether it's every day little problems or huge things such as debt, health problems, etc.
Cannot recommend this story and series enough. You can read it as a stand alone but it includes characters/couples from previous books. I cannot wait to read Pixie and Bear's story. Can only imagine the explosions that will happen with them!
I received an ARC and am happily giving a review.

Honestly, I think I would have preferred this story if they'd put an asexual spin on it. I loved the love, don't get me wrong, but I didn't really believe the attraction between the characters. I actually enjoyed the themes surrounding the relationship a lot more that the relationship itself. Also, I have to add, the writing was on a whole other level from Tank. (Spoiler alert: it is not a higher level.)

it was probably my favorite of the series. and I love oblivious characters. but you've been doing gay porn for years and you think you're straight ? not even a little bi ? Jackson was the highlight of this book, my very earnest cowboy turned actor with a heart of gold. He's a gem.

Freaking amazing
I had this book in my TBR for too long! I can’t believe I waited this long to read it!
I’ve loved all the Ballsy Boys books, and I swear each one gets better and better.
Campy and Jackson’s love story is epically amazing. Jackson is the quintessential Texas boy you always wanted. And Campy is a guy who is doing all he can to keep his mama cared for even if it’s gay porn and he thinks he’s straight!
I won’t give too much away cause this book is way too good to spoil for you.
Incredible book from Kyleen and Nora. They are one of my favourite author collaborations and my number one M/M authors!

I had to bail because I just could not get past Jackson’s “southern” dialect. As some one who grew up in the Texas Hill Country, he was just so cliche and stereotypical.
