He can't have the family he wants, but he may get the love he deserves. Isaac didn't expect to find love at his family's Christmas dinner, but that was before he met his sister's new fake boyfriend. Tall, muscular, and tattooed, Logan is what Isaac would love in a partner - and also everything his parents would hate in one. Not that they know Isaac's gay. That doesn't stop him from dating Logan - unbeknownst to his parents, and with his sister's approval after she fake dumps him. The pair dive into a whirlwind romance of motorcycle rides, cheesy puns, and hot sex. They meet each other's friends and fill their time with happiness and laughter. It's all perfect. Until Isaac suggests they move in together, and Logan asks Isaac to come out to his parents. Isaac wants to, but he's scared; he doesn't want to lose his family. Unfortunately, he can't see that his real family has been right beside him all along.… (altro)

This was a sweet piece of fluff. Nothing terribly deep unless you are closeted also. I totally enjoyed Mr. Whitehall's writing style. It felt like a long yack with a friend. The ending was a nice fit considering the subject matter. ( )

This book has all the elements of an m/m romance that I have come to expect. Both Issac and Logan are funny, smart, nerdy guys and I loved the interactions between them. Though the development of their relationship proceeded very quickly, it was written well and I was rooting for them every step of the way. Issac’s sister Sue is hilarious and a great support for him and I was glad she was part of his life. There are also two groups of friends, and I have to say that it was difficult to keep track of them. But, they were overall a great bunch and embodied the friends-like-family trope.

The major conflict in the book is Issac’s racist homophobic parents. And I really couldn’t understand why Issac felt so much for them, at the expense of better relationships in his life. For most of the second half, I just couldn’t go along with his reasoning for wanting to be a part of his parents’ life and not believing that friends could be just as good as family.

The book does have an optimistic ending but I was hoping for a bit more in the epilogue as hinted earlier in the story. Overall, despite some issues, this was an enjoyable read with nice characters and a lot of diversity. ( )
