Us (Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy)

Can your favorite hockey players finish their first season together undefeated? 

Five months in, NHL forward Ryan Wesley is having a record-breaking rookie season. He’s living his dream of playing pro hockey and coming home every night to the man he loves — Jamie Canning, his longtime best friend turned boyfriend. There’s just one problem: the most important relationship of his life is one he needs to keep hidden, or else face a media storm that will eclipse his success on the ice.

Jamie loves Wes. He really, truly does. But hiding sucks. It’s not the life Jamie envisioned for himself, and the strain of keeping their secret is taking its toll. It doesn’t help that his new job isn’t going as smoothly as he’d hoped, but he knows he can power through it as long as he has Wes. At least apartment 10B is their retreat, where they can always be themselves.  

Or can they?

When Wes’s nosiest teammate moves in upstairs, the threads of their carefully woven lie begin to unravel. With the outside world determined to take its best shot at them, can Wes and Jamie develop major-league relationship skills on the fly?

Warning: contains sexual situations, a vibrating chair, long-distance sexytimes and proof that hockey players look hot in any shade of green.

This book! THIS BOOK!!! I loved the first book, Him, but this one? OMG! Us will forever be in my list of favorite books because it just messed with my emotions so damn much.

Once again the writing was perfect, Elle Kennedy and Sarina Bowen are a hell of an amazing team. And Jamie and Wes are as perfect as ever! And I loved to see their relationship develop and all the issues that came from it.

I was so afraid throughout all the book, because it showed that no matter how much you love someone, life can still mess things up, and sometimes love is not enough. 😦 My heart was breaking for Jamie and Wes during this book, so much, I wanted to cry 😦 (I might have cried a few times for real).

I loved the role of the family and friends in this story, and I absolutely adored Blake and I’m so so excited that he will have his own book, because he was a TRUE friend to Wes and Jamie, even if they took a little while to see how awesome he truly was.

Overall I loved this book beyond words. I loved Wes and Jamie falling in love in Him, but watching their relationship in this book was amazing and perfect and painful. I would read anything about these two, I just love them that much.
