BLURB:
Danny and Travis are neighbours.
Danny works in IT and gets annoyed at everything. Travis bakes pot brownies and renovates in his underwear.
When these two get together, nothing will stop the insults and arguments, except maybe some seriously sexy innuendos and a challenge.
How will two men who seem to hate each other resolve their differences and find a path to something more satisfying?
Maybe it’s not about resolving anything. Maybe it’s about revealing things, including a penchant for soft kink and a fear of intimacy.
Maybe Danny and Travis can get over themselves and find something in each other they never expected.
~ An enemies-to-lovers short with swearing, insults, pot brownies, domestic discipline, and a lot of heart.~
REVIEW:
Man, if you are looking for a funny, snarky, sarcastic, enemies-to-lovers type book, this is the one for you. I laughed my butt off with these two neighbors. It was a great little book.
Danny was ticked off at getting woke up at butt o’clock in the morning by some neighbor doing renovations with power tools. But what he didn’t expect was the sexy man, named Travis, doing them. But he was still ticked off at being woke up and with a hangover at that. And on top of it all, the dude was doing renovations in his undies! Did the man HAVE to have a great butt on top of it? And what started at ticked off ended in bickering like you wouldn’t believe. And every single day. They were constantly at each other’s throats. But what was under that bickering was chemistry you wouldn’t believe, and a need for each other and the kinks they were discovering in each other. But they were both scared of being intimate. As long as it came off as a casual thing they seemed fine. But anything else scared them. They got each other. But can they get past the scary into something more or is it going to have to stay casual forever when they both want more?
It is so hard to be intimate with someone. You can have a fling with anyone at anytime, but to actually be intimate is a huge deal. So for these two, I get where they are coming from. They want so bad to be together and truly together. They get each other in ways no one else ever has before. But it’s scary to let your guard down and let yourself out there. But I loved these two so much. They actually were perfect for each other. They complimented each other so well, despite all the snark and bickering between them.
It’s a short, fun story and I really enjoyed it. It didn’t need to be a long story because what was packed in this one, was right to the point and written the way it needed to be.
