How'd I miss your review?! Love it Pauline! LOVE this book, another wonderful def will re-read and soothing balm to those...other things...I've been reading lately... (currently am healing myself from You Know Who with Jared and Bryce in Impaired Judgement, my GOAT heroes...!) ]]>

Like You've Nothing Left to Prove by E.L. Massey
"I'm not normally into sequels with already established couples (never read Us for example, ooops) but this? THIS?! It's perfect. There, I said it. It's utterly perfect. I love these boys and all their friends and family with all my heart. So much so that I literally couldn't handle my emotions at some points and had to put the book away to COLLECT MYSELF and SQUEAL and BREATH and WIPE MY TEARS OF JOY AWAY until the feeling that my heart was going to explode stopped and I was able to continue.
This series is everything. Trust me. Read it. You 100% won't be disappointed.

Ugh, what am I going to do with myself now? Please feel free to convince me NOT to reread Heated Rivalry again just to fill the void Alex and Eli left in my heart and instead tackle my ever-growing tbr, thanks.
5 fucking ⭐️, because seriously, this was such a joy to read. I can't wait for Matt's story. "

Healing the Twin by Nora Phoenix
"This was sooooo much better than the second book! It restored my faith in the series 🥳 It didn't quite have the same happy, low-angst vibe I enjoyed in book one, but it was lovely in its own way.

Fer and Tomás have known each other since childhood, always friends but nothing more. In fact, Fer has had a crush on Tomás as long as they've known each other but never thought he'd have a chance with the other man. However, the years passed and life circumstances changed, and the two men get thrown into each other's orbit once again. Both men are brokenhearted in different ways, and as they spend more time together, they find solace in each other. It's a sweet story of healing and finding happiness again 🥹

I enjoyed the audio overall, but if Micheal Dean never speaks another word of Portuguese again, it will be too soon 😂 No. Just no. In fact, I'm not sure I've ever heard the man pull off an accent, certainly not that one. At least there was less Portuguese in this book than in the first one so that was a plus! I do wish he had kept some consistency with the voices between books because he was ALL OVER THE PLACE. From what I can tell, he made no attempt to keep the character voices the same. I was constantly confused who was talking every time characters made cameos. Why does a character that had a deep voice before now suddenly have a much higher pitched voice? Make it make sense 🙃 Once I abandoned all hope of consistency and just went with the flow, I was able to enjoy the audio for what it was in the moment 😂"
