I love these two so much. Giving me Tripp and Dex vibes from the Puckboys series.
I love Robbie's character; he's unapologetically himself and genuinely doesn't care what others think. I also loved seeing Brandon loosen up and find his own fun side.

I received an ARC of this book and am providing my honest review.
I LOVED this book. The will they/won't they element is normally not something I am super in to, but goodness this was a fun ride. And a great concept; demon (incubus) and man on his way to the clergy. The two main characters were phenomenal, especially Rhory. The dialogue was funny and I found myself laughing along in certain points
"what? Two buddies can't snuggle for warmth during a blizzard? We even said no homo first.'
I enjoyed this being more of a slowburn, that progressed over 14 years. The chapter format, where each new chapter was a new year, also felt like a great structure to use to tell the story.
I will definitely be going back to read the first book, and eagerly waiting the next book release.

Ugh, 2 cinnamon roll boys? Yes freaking please!
I am always a fan of what comes out of the Saden-verse and this was no exception. Funny, heart-warming and just a little bit filthy, what more can you want from the queer collective?
Cannot wait for the next one!

I received an ARC copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
While this book had immense promise, the execution wasn't great. Some sections of the writing were great, especially the first few chapters, but once Ruby entered the Program, this fell away. It felt rushed, and the timeline felt off; scenes or characters were mentioned before they had happened. There were only 2 scenes where the love interests interact with each other that were shown in the book, though there were references to other conversations. I really would have loved to see more of their relationship progression during The Program, as I felt like there was no actual relationship development and there was a huge missed opportunity to explore this.
The book had a number of spelling errors, a chapter was incorrectly labelled as Donovan, when it should have been Ryan. It was a triple POV, but one of these POVs didn't feel relevant to the story, especially as the book isn't an RH.
Honestly though, the idea was really cool and I would have loved to see more time dedicated to fleshing out their time in The Program (and to explain what happened to those who didn't complete it [especially Zach]) and taking the time to adequately wrap up the loose ends. There were a number of unanswered questions at the end, and a heap of unnecessary characters that just feel like they were forgotten about.
This one is a miss from me.
