Book Review: Beautifully Devoted

 


Forgetting to knock changed everything.

Cam
When I was ten, I made a promise. One that I’m still honoring a decade later, even though it means hiding a part of myself from the most important person in my life.

My best friend, Jagger.

And truthfully, burying that part of me is a small price to pay if it means nothing comes between us. I’m Jagger’s rock, the one stable thing in his life, and I’ve held that role for so long it’s now central to who I am. Which is why, after he sees something he shouldn’t and gets an idea that he wants my help with, I’m faced with the biggest decision of my life.

Saying yes could break me, but saying no could break us. I guess there isn’t really a choice, is there?

Jagger
There I was, innocently letting myself into my teammate’s room to search for some protein powder, when I came across a different type of protein altogether.

I learned two things that day. Knock first, and straight guys might be missing out.

As usual when I have an epiphany, I turn to my best friend Cam for help, and learn another two things. Neither of us is as straight as I thought, and I’m not the only one who needs protecting.

Hopefully I can be as strong for him as he’s been for me.

**Beautifully Devoted is a high-heat MM romance between two co-dependent best friends. It’s a medium angst story that includes hurt/comfort situations and a bi-awakening with lots of humor and spice. This is book two in a series of interconnected standalones.


My Review

I liked the first book in this series, but this one is my favorite. The friends to lovers between Cam and Jagger is great. The emotions are what got me and pulled me in. 

The walk into Cam's room by Jagger sure did change everything in a big way. What I like that that neither one of these two entertained the idea of anything happened between them until that moment. So, to see them both explore together is lovely. 

The nickname that Cam has for Jagger of "KitKat" is sweet. Especially when you learn the meaning behind it. If you like emotional romances than you will want to check out this book.
