Text Me Up

4.5 Stars
I read this book when it was a few k shorter word-wise and available as part of the Your Book Boyfriend book giveaway and was excited to see that it would be released on KU. You don’t have to have read any of the books that came before this one in the Love & Luck series, but it’s a) helpful and b) why wouldn’t you?!
Nate is straight. Well, he presents himself as straight. His dreams and deepest, darkest desires make it clear that he most certainly not straight. However, seeing what his sister went through with their parents during her transition is enough to scare anyone away from considering themselves anything other than straight as an arrow.
Callum is most certainly not straight. He has about a gazillion hookup apps on his phone – and would have more if more existed and he had more space in his phone. When he meets his cousin’s girlfriend’s brother at his other cousin’s house during a party he is instantly smitten. Yes, I know that’s a lot of cousins, but the Foley’s have a LOT of kids.
When Callum & Nate each have to rush off to the airport to catch flights back home, they grab their phones from the chargers on the kitchen counter and head off. Once Nate is on the plane, he realizes that he’s not holding his own phone. Calling it, he reaches Callum who is sitting at the airport bar, his flight home to Ireland having been delayed.
What started as animosity over the desire to NOT be flirted with turns into back door play coaching, toy ordering, flirting, phone play, jealousy and majorly real feelings – and that’s after the phones have been returned to their rightful owners. Well, minus that one time on the plane. *Whew* When the two men meet up in person again for a Foley family wedding, will they give into their mutual feelings and give being together a go or will Nate decide that the sexy Irishman isn’t what he wants after all? Will Callum be willing to give up all of those apps to be exclusive with the man he’s essentially been dating long-distance?
I received a complimentary copy of this book and, as always, my review is honest and unpaid.
