Christmas On Stardust Lane by Garrett Leigh
5.0
5 stars
I loved this! The characters, the vibes, the setting, the feelings, all of it.
There's insta connection but also slow burn, Tam and Bhodi are friends first and lovers later, they live close but they don't see each other all the time, they both have a lot of baggage and hurt from the past, but they love deeply despite everything.
Garrett Leigh is so good at describing feelings and I loved how Bhodi and Tam were irrevocably attracted to each other, not only phisically, but especially emotionally, it was like they couldn't breathe if they were distant: in the whole story there's always this primal need to touch one another, like they craved to be reassured that the other wasn't going anywhere.
This story is interconnected with the Rebel Kings MC world: Tam lives in the same city as Logan and Remi and he knows River (I need to catch up with the chapter in Every Missing Moments 2 when h makes an appearance), while Bhodi used to work with Skylar and he also treated Embry.
About Skylar: in Every Missing Moments 2 there's the scene when Bhodi tells him he's moving away and Skylar thinks "I don't care. I wish I did". But in this book he makes a phone call to Bhodi, claiming he cared about Bhodi and that he wanted for them to be friends: honestly what was the point for that? They've never hang out together, they've never talked, why waiting for Bhodi to move away to seek a friendship with him? He gave me the impression that he was a little jealous Bhodi could finally find something more elsewhere. We'll see when Skylar's story will come out.
I'm so happy the author will give Sab (and his precious little girl) his own story too.
And since it's impossible to move in this wonderful town with this magic street names, I have to settle for rereading this and Christmas on Firefly Hill soon.
I received an ARC of this book from Gay Romance Reviews and this is my honest review.
