My Name is Luka by Aria Grace

4.0

I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review

I enjoyed this next book in the More than Friends series. Even though the story is a standalone, it helps to have read some of the others if you like to know the other background characters. We see Steve, Joey, Vinnie, and Chance from previous books. It is nice to see them again.

Luka is just a few weeks away from his 18th birthday and he can not wait to get away from his physically abusive father. He tries to stay out of his father's way, but isn't always so lucky. One day, the hot neighbor, Brad, hears stuff going on and finds Luka after his father just beat him. He helps Luka, and they develop a friendship (with definite attraction that Brad won't act on until he turns 18). For a relatively short story, there was a lot of story in the pages. My heart felt for Luka, and I loved how Brad was there for him throughout all of the situations, despite the danger and drama that it caused for Brad.

I'm looking forward to reading the next ones in the series to continue getting to know these characters.
