FOR FRAT’S SAKE

Review

I love the ‘golden-retriever people pleaser’ vs ‘misunderstood, grumpy, closed off recluse’ vibes.

Miles was cast as the villain previously, and that shadow is long. But Dax isn’t most people, and he’s eager to look behind Miles’ walls to get to know the real person.

It’s definitely not smooth sailing to hooking up, let alone love, but it’s fun and warm, and oh so satisfying.

Synopsis

DAX

Miles Tanner hates me for no reason.

Me—lovable, easygoing, sexy-as-hell Dax Armstrong, always there when a fellow fratbro needs a hand...or if that fratbro would like to enjoy more than just my hand...

Miles is the broody artist-type who just got off probation for starting the fire at Sigma Alpha.

Basically, a walking red flag.

But for a guy who's always looking to start a fight with me, I can't wrap my mind around a night when I was a little too tipsy and he helped me back to Alpha Theta Mu.

Since then, he's hot and cold. One minute he's telling me to stay away from him. The next, he moves in for a touch.

Or a kiss.

In these unguarded moments, all those problematic, confusing red flags fade to the background.

Maybe he's right and I shouldn't mess with him, but for frat's sake...where's the fun in that?

Tropes:

Enemies-to-Lovers

Grumpy/Sunshine

Opposites Attract

Protective MC

Plenty of Spice

* This book can be read and enjoyed as a standalone.

About Devon McCormack

Devon McCormack grew up in the Georgia suburbs with his two younger brothers and an older sister. At a very young age, he spun tales the old fashioned way, lying to anyone and everyone he encountered. He claimed he was an orphan. He claimed to be a king from another planet. He claimed to have supernatural powers. He has since harnessed this penchant for tall tales by crafting worlds and characters that allow him to live out whatever fantasy he chooses. Devon is an out and proud queer man living in Atlanta, Georgia.

Devon's body of work ranges from erotica to young adult, so readers should check the synopses of his books before purchasing so that they know what they're getting into.
