TOMMASO
The furniture district is my personal hell. I don’t know my ass from an ottoman. But when a hot designer comes to my rescue, I realize my problems are bigger than the house I’m trying to furnish.
A scorching kiss over fabric samples makes me question all my choices. But is it too late to change my entire life to get more of them?
CARTER
I need this gig, but my cocky new client leaves out a couple crucial details:
He doesn’t mention that he's a famous hockey player. And he doesn’t own up to the way he’s always trying to undress me with his dark, broody eyes.
The man throws out more mixed signals than a broken traffic light. I've never been more sexually frustrated in my entire life. I need to back away before I do something stupid, like lose my heart.
Oops. Too late.
I’m Your Guy was so sweet!! It’s a slow burn, friends then lovers story with two heroes with baggage. Tommaso is new to the area after a trade and Carter is trying to keep his business and finances afloat. Both of them are wary, but needing a friend and some support. So, the love is slow. There is chemistry, but it takes a backseat to the budding friendship because it has to. But the build is great!
The story was fun in a lot of ways, despite Tommaso dealing with a lot. Carter is more outgoing and helps to bring Tommaso out of himself more. Overall, I really enjoyed this one. It was sweet, fun, and emotional! Plus, hockey!! I’m enjoying the new hockey team for sure. If you want a relaxing, enjoyable MM read, I’m Your Guy is a must read!

I’m Your Guy
I enjoyed this one so much! I loved how their friendship developed first – even if the chemistry was sizzling underneath. 🙂
I really enjoyed this too. Carter and Tommaso are so cute.
I’ve read one novella by this author that I loved, and I think I own another book that I need to read, this one sounds good! Great review!
