Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall

4.0

Lovely and fun, although as my first HFN (happy for now), I found the end a little unsettling and unsatisfying. The break up and all that at the end really upset me and the reconciliation just happened, and then the book ended. I've gotten spoiled by all those Epilogues in romances where I get to bask in the HEA (happily ever after). I'm also really crushed that the sequel isn't out until next year. Although I'm back-and-forth about reading it because, I don't know, after all this do I want the agony of will-they-or-won't-they after being so invested in them working things out here? (I've never read a romance that's spans more than one book. It feels weird to me to have to go thru another iteration of the romance beat sequence in hopes they figure things out...)

Maybe I'm making this seem like I didn't enjoy this one but I did. Oliver was genuinely a love and very sexy; and while Luc wasn't my thing, he was consistent and well-developed and grew in a way that made my heart happy.
