Best Man by Lily Morton

I was hoping we’d get a series about Eli’s flat mates…and it looks like we will, plus I’m hoping Felix gets a book in this series as well! This is a very loose spin-off of Gideon however you do not need to read that book to start this series.
There is nothing earth shattering here. Jesse’s similar to Oz (from the Finding Home series) to me with his over the top quirkiness and lighthearted humor. He balances Zeb’s seriousness and helps him laugh and live. Their banter is entertaining, they have amazing sexual and emotional chemistry and I love them together especially when they go on their dates to get to know each other.
While I liked the book (predictability and all), I had a hard time with a couple of things:
- Patrick…he was a user and a prick, and I cannot believe Zeb was blind to what he was doing
- Patrick’s mother…she was really OTT
- Zeb’s half-arsed apology both times (the second one more than the first) and Jesse’s quick forgiveness; I felt he needed to grovel a bit more
I’m assuming both Charlie and Felix will get books in this series and I’m on board for both of them!
