When they were kids, Chris Mitcham rescued Theo from the neighborhood bullies and taught him how to “be cool.” Now, years later, Theo’s developed feelings for his best friend that arise at the most inopportune times. Theo hates lying to Chris, but in coming out, he might lose the one person who understands him best, a risk he’s not willing to take.

Quick-tempered Bennet Rourke dislikes Darius Lanniker on sight. Darius may be a hotshot city lawyer, but that doesn’t give him the right to sneer at Bennet, his friends, and their college. It doesn’t help that Bennet’s restaurant job has him waiting at Darius’s table. So when his tutor recommends him for an internship at Darius’s Pemberley estate, Bennet isn’t sure he wants it. He’s also not sure he can afford to turn it down.
Darius is a fish out of water in the small college town of Meriton, but something keeps pulling him back there. He’s helping out a friend with business advice, nothing more. If he’s interested in Bennet, it’s not serious. Sure, Bennet challenges him in a way no other man has. But they have nothing in common. Right?
Wrong. Their best friends are falling in love, and Bennet and Darius can’t seem to escape each other. Soon they’re sharing climbing ropes and birthday cake, and there’s a spark between them that won’t be denied. But betrayal is around the corner. Darius must swallow his pride and Bennet must drop his prejudices to see the rainbow shining through the storm clouds.

SAGA: Opposites attract #1
Peter
I was a working actor struggling to make rent when I scored a part in Aiden Hunt's latest blockbuster.
Too bad the man himself turned out to be rude, abrasive and annoyingly cocky. But at least I'd never have to see him again after filming.
Or so I thought.
One drunken wrap party and two gold rings later, I'm married to the bastard and we need to sell a fairytale romance to the tabloids, his legions of fans, and the world.
Falling for him in the middle of all this should be out of the question.
Aiden
Hollywood has a bad habit of chewing up young, starry-eyed actors and spitting them right out. That was what I thought would happen to Peter Czerny, and I didn't care. He was rude, self-righteous, and...distracting.
Ending up married to him was an inconvenience, but I could use it for my own gain.
I just didn't bank on Peter getting under my skin. He slipped into my life like he's always belonged there, and we have an attraction that my body can't deny.
I just need to get him out of my system.
Then we can both go back to our two separate lives.
Somehow, playing a role has never felt this complicated.

Other than his most prized Lamborghini, Karl Andrews has nothing to his name. He’s down on his luck and his dollar, and his dream of becoming a professional chef is looking more and more like a pipe-dream. Even less than a pipe-dream when restaurants won’t even take him on as a waiter.
And he won’t ever, no not ever, consider selling his one possession. No matter how much he could make from it. Just wasn’t going to happen.
He’d rather . . . rather . . .
Hell, he’d rather apply for that position to be a Girl Friday.
Other than the title, the job sounds all right. Bit of cooking, cleaning—nothing he can’t handle.
Really.
Until he goes to the interview and discovers the man looking for the help is the same man he’d bullied, mocked, terrified as a boy. But Paul Hyte is obviously a better man, gracious and forgiving. And trusting—as the biggest part of the job requires looking after his son.
Despite the initial forgiveness, things are tentative between Karl and Paul, and they’ve both got to reconcile their pasts if they want any type of proper closure. As the two men learn more about each other an undeniable attraction grows between them—but can the two manage to forge a future together on such a rocky past and complicated present?

Querida mamá:
Puede que llegue un poquito tarde a la boda de la prima Missy. He tenido una semana terrible. ¿Te acuerdas de la cita a ciegas de la que te hablé? Pues resulta que era con un demonio auténtico, que, para colmo, me mordió. Después, unos cazadores de vampiros empezaron a perseguirme por toda la ciudad y… bueno, lo mejor de todo es que he conocido a alguien fantástico. Es sexy y tiene seiscientos años. Hemos llegado a un trato: él me va a explicar cómo funciona el mundo de los vampiros y yo, a cambio, le ayudaré a poner fin a su eterna existencia. O quizás le convenza para que siga viviendo a mi lado. Tal vez lo veas un poco complicado así de entrada. Pero piensa en lo mejor: puede que consiga ir a la boda de la prima Missy con pareja. No me digas que eso no te haría ilusión…
Tu hija que te adora,
Sarah

Will absolutely not fall for him in the process...

They don’t play for the same team. Or do they?
Jamie Canning has never been able to figure out how he lost his closest friend. Four years ago, his tattooed, wise-cracking, rule-breaking roommate cut him off without an explanation.

Now, with their college teams set to face off at the national championship, he’ll finally get a chance to apologize. But all it takes is one look at his longtime crush, and the ache is stronger than ever.
Jamie has waited a long time for answers, but walks away with only more questions—can one night of sex ruin a friendship? If not, how about six more weeks of it? When Wesley turns up to coach alongside Jamie for one more hot summer at camp, Jamie has a few things to discover about his old friend... and a big one to learn about himself.

Reto | Las 100 mejores novelas románticas de RNR

¡Buenos días!

¿Es tarde para apuntarse a nuevos retos? No, nunca lo es. Este reto lleva en mi punto de mira un tiempo, pero al fin he decidido apuntarme porque, la verdad, me encantan estos retos a largo plazo. En esta ocasión se trata de leer los 100 mejores libros de género romántico según las votaciones que hace la web RNR. El reto fue originalmente ideado por Telaraña de libros, yo he actualizado las imágenes porque se me guardaban con muy poca calidad, pero he mantenido los libros que incluye Oly en su reto. Ella lo comenzó en 2015 y en 2019 añadió los 26 libros que fueron incluidos en la lista en este tiempo. Yo, por ahorrarme el revisar cuáles de los 100 primeros se mantienen en la lista y cuáles se han caído para dar lugar a los 26 nuevos, voy a dejar la lista en 126.

Iré actualizando esta página con las reseñas (intentaré releer aquellos libros que haya leído antes de abrir el blog y que por lo tanto no están reseñados, porque por lo que he visto al redactar la entrada son unos cuantos).

21/126
