Jamie Canning has never been able to figure out how he lost his closest friend. Four years ago, his tattooed, wise-cracking, rule-breaking roommate cut him off without an explanation. So what if things got a little weird on the last night of hockey camp the summer they were eighteen? It was just a little drunken foolishness. Nobody died.
Ryan Wesley’s biggest regret is coaxing his very straight friend into a bet that pushed the boundaries of their relationship. Now, with their college teams set to face off at the national championship, he’ll finally get a chance to apologize. But all it takes is one look at his longtime crush, and the ache is stronger than ever.
Jamie has waited a long time for answers, but walks away with only more questions—can one night of sex ruin a friendship? If not, how about six more weeks of it? When Wesley turns up to coach alongside Jamie for one more hot summer at camp, Jamie has a few things to discover about his old friend...and a big one to learn about himself.
Warning: contains sexual situations, skinnydipping, shenanigans in an SUV and proof that coming out to your family on social media is a dicey proposition.
I love a great hockey book, I love a great M/M book even
more, but what I love even more is when the two genres are combined into
one. HIM
had me from the very start, I absolutely loved how we not only got to see Jamie
and Ryan’s relationship in the present, but also glimpses at how they were as
best friends in the past. You wanted
Jamie and Ryan to not only work through what caused them to drift apart all
those years ago but you want these two to be together as a couple; because you
can just tell these two are perfect for one another.
Jamie is straight, or is he?
Well he does have a female friend with benefits that I personally wanted
to vag punch on more than one occasion. Why you may ask? Well it is because I wanted Jamie and Ryan
together, even if Jamie didn’t know at first he would be attracted to guys as
well, and well she was kind of bordering on pathetic and clingy if you ask me. Yep he is Bi but once his eyes are opened I
don’t see him ever going back to the females.
Ryan is the prankster, the one who you can dare to do just about
anything and he would have done it. He
is also the one who I think has the bigger heart of the two, I say this because
he is worried that for Jamie it isn’t what it is for him, finally being with the
man he has been in love with for years.
I loved not only the chemistry these two shared, but the friendship, the
history and the love they had for each other.
And for me that is what will make a relationship stay strong and last,
when it is more than just about the sex (oh hush yeah I know I love me some
sexy times but I am trying to be serious here people) but about a connection
that only grows stronger with time.
The authors did an amazing job in flowing everything so
smoothly that you can’t tell that two authors not just one wrote this. A lot of times you can see the switch up
because the styles aren’t the same or their writing style is different but Ms.
Bowen and Ms. Kennedy did a beautiful job at writing HIM and making this reviewer fall in love with Jamie and Ryan. I hope we get to read more of these authors
working together in the future because these two ladies are two of my
favorites.
