Review

I always enjoy a tight group of friends who see each other as family and this series follows each of these ‘brothers’.

Langdon has a troubled past that he keeps to himself and he works at a bar. Which is where he meets his boss's brother Eric.

There’s a lot of drama in this story. From Eric’s public breakup at the alter, his ex’s family, Langdon’s past and brothers. Not to mention the co-workers and some mystery/suspense.

I do enjoy the friend dynamic and I like Eric and Langdon together when they get there. It does at times feel like the story/series is trying to be too many things at once.

Synopsis

In the dark streets of Soho, London, where the nightlife pulses with energy and hidden dangers, Langdon is striving to carve out a life of his own. Having endured a tough childhood, marked by a mother who never valued him, he has found solace in the company of his four best friends, who feel like brothers. Although he thrives working in a bar, Langdon is haunted by his past, feeling like a dirty secret to the men he dates.

When Eric's world crumbles after a disastrous wedding, he loses both his home and job, forcing him to seek refuge with his brother. It’s here that he encounters Langdon, and an undeniable connection sparks between them. As their chemistry ignites, they begin to explore a love that feels both thrilling and terrifying.

But their growing bond faces a sinister threat. Someone is determined to tear them apart, willing to go to any lengths, including violence, to ensure they never find happiness together. As Langdon and Eric navigate the complexities of their relationship and confront the demons of their pasts, they must also fight to protect one another from a force that seeks to destroy them.

In “Dangerous Attraction,” love becomes a battleground where trust is tested, and survival is at stake. Will Langdon and Eric find the strength to overcome the shadows that haunt them, or will they pay the ultimate price for their desire to be together?
