Irresponsible Puckboy: Puckboys, Book 2

This is my first book from this series, though I have already purchased a few of the other books to read after. Normally, I do prefer to read a series of books in order, even if the individual stories can be read as standalones. But I have so many I'm juggling, I sometimes have to go with what catches my attention more. Usually, the mention of the other characters will pique my interest in their stories as well, so it all works out in the end. Dexter & Tripp are so sweet; I love the whole best friends trope, though it always gets to me that even guys who mean the world to one another still take quite a while to realize each other's true feelings. Say what you feel & think, people! Because if guys who already love one another to bits and respect & trust each still need extraordinary circumstances to realize they really are meant to be, than what hope do us mere mortals have of finding our soulmates? Honesty about our feelings, even when we're scared of the reaction, is what is all about. So be true to yourself & at least you won't leave anything on the table or have regrets about what could've been. At least their relationship only has a bit of angst & pining, a lot of steamy times, and definitely a lot of laughter. These guys and their friends & family are a hoot.

PoV: dual, 1st person Genre: sport romance, MM Tropes / tags: fake marriage, friends to lovers, sexual discovery This one was a lot of fun and I loved Dex's golden retriever himbo energy! He was completely oblivious to both his own and Tripp's feelings, and it took him quite some time to figure things out. A fake, sort of accidental marriage helped things along, and I loved how Dex's sexual discovery was written. They were really sweet together and once Dex figured out he was attracted to Tripp things turned steamy - and the dance floor scene was super hot! There was a tinge of heartache though, with Tripp getting everything he'd been pining for, while still not knowing if it was real or not. Irresponsible Puckboy was a very sweet best friends to lovers romance, with a lot of humour to it. These two were clueless idiots in the best ways and Dex was such an adorable himbo. This is the perfect story for when you're looking for something low angst and sweet that will make you smile a lot!
