super low angst, but super good!
Independent reviewer for Neon, I was gifted my copy of this book.

There is a bit at the front of this book, and I don't usually read those notes but I'm glad I did. It sets the tone of the book beautifully!

Ben lands the job of Slappy, beaver mascot for the Bloomburg Aspens hocky team. he isn't supposed to tell anyone. But he and Lukas are already hooking up, and he doesn't want any secrets. What can go wrong??

And, my dear peeps, is the sum of the angst in this book! What will happen if anyone finds out that Lukas, of said hockey team, knows who the top secret mascot is??

It is SUPER low angst between Lukas and Ben. Super hot chemistry between them. Super sweet as they keep getting together. Super super SUPER!

I loved this book, I really did. I think that note gets you into the mind of Ms Neill when she wrote this and I feel a bit . . .I dunno . . .closer to her. . .maybe?? She is right though, the world has gone to pot. And books like this make it a little bit better, so thank you, Ms Neill!

A short review, but one that needed reigning in before it ran into 6 pages!

5 full and shiny stars, but honestly, I'd give more if I could!

a very fitting end for Marc and Ziggy!
Independent reviewer for BookSirens, I was gifted my copy of this book.

This is a novella in the Liverpool Boys series, and you really should read Saving Ziggy before this one. Much will not make sense if you haven't.

Ziggy and Marc are 7 years married, settled into life happily. But *something* is missing, they both cannot pinpoint what, so a break away over Christmas seems perfect. What they find, will change their lives forever.

I found this the most PERFECT end to Ziggy and Marc's story!

It's so full of love! Marc and Ziggy are very much in love. That fact shows on every page, and finding the bundle in the summer house? Makes their lives complete.

I loved that there was very little steam here! Ziggy and Marc make plans for *fully* enjoy their down time, but plans go awry!

It emotional, though, on a deep level. Finding a baby will wreck anyone, but taking that baby on? Takes a huge amount of emotional upheaval but Ziggy and Marc own it, beautifully!

All the other *boys* and their partners are talked about, and some pop up at the end, so that was a lovely catch up with everyone.

This really is, the most fitting end to Ziggy and Marc's story.

5 full, but very sweet stars
