BLURB:
Tom Hannity is not boring, despite what his ex-boyfriend says. He loves his circle of family and friends and finds peace in the beauty of flower arranging. Still stinging from his recent breakup, Tom attends an Anti-Valentine’s Day “Ex-orcism,” hoping for some fun and forgetfulness.
Mario Tellez is tired of party boys, and he’s had his eye on Tom for a while. When they run into each other at the Ex-orcism, sparks fly, until an accidentally overheard conversation drives Tom to do something he normally doesn’t do.
What should have been a hot and fun night turns into Tom and Mario seeing each other at their absolute worst, although surprisingly, it brings out the best in them, too. Navigating around the toxic people in their lives isn’t easy, and after a small series of bumps in the road, they finally come around full circle… to Valentine’s Day and laying old demons to rest.
REVIEW:
This book was just too damn cute. Even though its content contained some pretty strong and serious issues the cuteness factor totally outweighed everything else.
Tom and Mario meet under very unique circumstances. Their situations get even more interesting after Mario gets seriously ill and the only one around to care for him is Tom. Tom puts his entire life on hold to ensure Mario gets over the bug that’s infected him which proves to Mario what type of person Tom really is.
This is a very short story with the perfect amount of cutesy and angst being completely balanced. Mario and Tom’s journey isn’t without its hiccups but this author being an absolute genius storyteller navigates it perfectly.
I totally recommend this totally loveable story with such awesome characters this Valentine’s Day!! Adored it!!
P.S. This cover tho….!! LOVE!
