Shamelessly insta-lovey. This was super cute.

Hated this one. Cam gives in after one text, come on. So frustrating, have some self-respect. It gives an omniscient narrator vibe since the only reason it would be ok to be used like that and then be totes ok with it is if you know you're supposed to have an hea with that person. Did not seem legit at all, just seemed incredibly annoying. Made me dislike Cort even though he had been sympathetic before.

Never again, babe.

No, for real this time.

Ok, NOW never again.

For real, for real.

Ugh. Wish I hadn't read this. It's from 2017 and I have abso loved this author's newer stuff that I've just recently started to read and this killed the streak and I'm bummed.

I enjoyed this a lot. Cort and Cam had chemistry from the begining, not just sexual chemistry but romantic chemistry as well. I loved reading their conversations together just as much as I loved reading their sex scenes.

The plot could be considered nothing out of the ordinary, with Cam's parents having died in a plane crash and it having been intentional instead of accidental, but I liked how the author brought Cort into Cam's life, into the overall plot, to bring them together.

Because Cort's foster brother, Damon, was the pilot of the plane and was presumed dead, but also responsible for the crash, but Damon contacts Cort over several months and Cort figures out that he is indeed alive, and while Cort is determined to find out how and why his brother was framed - and using resources as an FBI agent to help - he figures that Cam or his brother Sebastian had their parents killed (and thus framing Damon) and so he's determined to prove it, and it brings him right to Cam.

But right away Cort is drawn in by Cam and they form an undeniable connection. They were so hot and sweet and adorable together, I loved whenever they interacted.

And yeah, it might have been "too easy" (hence the title) for them, and they fell in love fairly quickly, but it also didn't feel as insta-lovey as it was. Being able to see them fall for each other and feel that connection helped.

Things happen fast between them, but they don't get too caught up in everything. They move in after 5 months together at the end, but they're still taking their time with their relationship.

There is some mild angst but it works out well.

I definitely recommend this. There are well written characters, a well written relationship, and an entertaining plot. Cam and Cort just made me so happy <3

Camden and Cort
I didn’t love it and I didn’t hate it. I am right in the middle I did like the mystery and how the brothers were involved.
I really did like how they each got the other one to be less stuffy. That was cute and fun at the same time.
I liked the banter and the text message exchanges that made me like these two a little more.
This was a first for me by this author and I will try them again.
The narration was good.

Loved it

I was in the mood for a m/m romantic mystery and I wasn't disappointed. I loved both the main characters and the way they bantered back and forth. The story kept my attention the whole way and I hope the next story is as good!

At 85% I turned to my boss, who looked disturbed by my sudden outburst of laughter, and said "this book is out of control."
