If you’re looking for a plot- or angst- or action-heavy romance, this won’t satisfy you, but if you’re looking for something slow and sweet, where two lifelong friends slowly come together while one nurses the other back to health, than this is your book. Martin and Will have been best friends since childhood. Will grew up slightly neglected in a rather bohemian household that was falling into ruin. Martin’s father was a first class asshole, who also turned out to be an abuser (see the […]

Every time I read Cat Sebastian, I wonder why it is I haven’t devoured her entire back catalog? She’s a brilliant writer. Her stories make me feel like I’ve been snuggled on the world’s most comfortable couch. Two Rogues Make a Right is the third book in a series. You can read it as a stand alone.

 I am basically trash for this author now. I have pre-ordered her m/f Regency romance that is out in April, so hopefully she’s just as good on that as she is with m/m. Fair warning, the next book in this series isn’t out until July and that is 1,000 years away. Also, this cover isn’t that bad (characters are way overdressed, and one should def be dressed like a vicar because come on, but it’s not ugly), and neither are the last two in her first series, […]
