M/M first-times between sweet guys with little angst, some humor and a super HEA
Anyone who follows me knows that my favorite subgenre in M/M romance is first-times or gay-for-him. This story is about two nice guys, Leo and Cameron who are just coming to realize that maybe they are Gay or Bi. Leo is the 28yo co-owner and operator of On The Rocks a beach bar who plans on renovating it and needs an Architect. In steps Architect Cameron March, recently divorced from his wife, father of two young boys/men and coming to grips with his newly acknowledged bisexuality...and 45yo He and Leo are too passive to take the first step. They need help. Oh. My. Word. You won’t believe the next bits. Loved this story and all the many characters, except one maybe. You’ll see...Every story needs a villain.
This series is so entertaining. The author allows us to see how Kelso and Tanner from the previous book are faring in their new relationship. Kelso is Leo’s brother and Tanner is Leo’s BFF. Love Archie! What can I say? I truly enjoyed getting to know these guys; and seeing them finally succeed was priceless. I volunteered to review an ARC of this book and recommend it to readers of M/M fiction who enjoy low steam but lots of romance.

I think I enjoyed this book more than the first. I liked the characters just as much but I enjoyed the story a bit more. Leo was coming to accept himself as somewhere on the rainbow and when he saw Cam, he was a goner. Cam was coming out of a divorce, rediscovering his suppressed bisexuality and now was battling the devil herself for custody of 14 year old Archie. Jess got off easy if you ask me, she was pretty unhinged. The side characters really are fun in this series. Cord was a fun addition to this crew of beachside residents.

This is ON THE ROCKS Book #2. Whiskey Dreams was also a wonderful Book I highly recommend. Leo is the part owner of a beach bar. They are renovating and expanding. Cam is the architect who is drafting the expansion. These two have a instant chemistry and become friends. They quickly go off the rails. Life has a way of gut punching anyone. I'm getting more acquainted with SAM E KRAEMER'S writing style and I really enjoy it. I love the flow of these books. Great characters and a story that plays out with real life clarity. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK AND THIS ON THE ROCKS SERIES!!!!!

Finding an unlikely Allie in Love
When Leo met Cameron March, he was unsure of what he was feeling. Cameron was having these same feelings. They had a misunderstanding and Leo went on a short stay vacation.meeting some very interesting people.
Leo and Cameron had a lot to work through and they mostly do.
I truly enjoyed this book and look forward to the next one, it was loving and had a little bit of relationship angst.

I liked the first book and was looking forward to reading Leo’s book….and then Cam March happened. I disliked him from the prologue when he was nasty to Leo and I was hoping there would be saving grace as the story progresses. Nope. He let his ex-wife walked all over him all these years but he was questioning Leo’s motive when Leo was just being kind and considerate. I stopped at 40% because I couldn’t bear seeing Leo fall in love with the ass****. I refuse to be aggravated so I’m skipping to Cord’s book, who is a much more interesting and lovable character.
