Synopsis
Stacey has always had one nemesis: Hunter Mannington. Nothing grated on him more than the mere thought of Hunter. Stacey's world revolves around the insufferable man. Yet, despite their constant clashes, an unexpected bond begins to form between them, slowly melting the icy barriers around Stacey's heart.
Unbeknownst to Stacey, Hunter harbors a secret—a revelation that threatens to shatter their budding connection. Yet, as their feelings deepen and passion ignites, Hunter grapples with the guilt of concealing the truth.
With the holiday season in full swing, a Christmas party brings hidden truths to light, leaving Stacey reeling from the revelation of his unexpected family ties. Shocked and betrayed, Stacey must confront the undeniable love he feels for Hunter, even as he struggles to reconcile the lies with fact.
As they navigate the complexities of their relationship, Stacey and Hunter are faced with an impossible choice: confront the truth and risk losing everything, or cling to their love and defy the odds. Will their bond withstand the weight of their ties, or will it crumble beneath the weight of secrets and lies?

This is the greatest thing I heard today!!!!! I love this book!!!! I have never actually liked an LGBT+ book that's normal. I normally read those that are like inhumane. But this, this is good. I want to read more and more.
Overall this has been an excellent book. Started reading it on a sunday night and finish it by monday evening and waiting impatiently for the rest to appears. Superb read. The best book I have found in over 8 to 9 months, a real page turned. Cant wait for the next chapter.

This is a great book. I love the characters and how the story plays out. Not many people can write a wonderful story like you. I hope you do well in your writing to come. And remember as stressful as it is you can do it. Continue to write and I'll continue to read. I really do enjoy reading this book and so do most of my friends. Your doing a wonderful job author. The best advice I can give you is to follow your heart when writing. Best of wishes. Signed Ann.
Author sama why did you change the cover? I liked the other one... (● ˃̶͈̀ロ˂̶͈́)੭ꠥ⁾⁾
Read it, just read it. (My only complaint is that it hasn’t updated in a month...🥺 but I don’t mind waiting it’s just that good~! I hope nothing happened to author-sama though...)
The more I read, the better the story gets! I definitely recommend this book to anyone unsure if they would like it. The characters are so fantastically HUMAN, and are far from perfect.
Me ha encantado, la historia en general el hecho de que la autora se haya tomado su tiempo para desarrollar los sentimientos de cada personaje me ha encantado, fue frustrante la espera pero valió la pena.
This book is awesome.... I absolutely love the story development and characters. Waiting for the next chapters..... Thank you for the book.
Wow! But where's the next part? I really want more of these boys. Please update more often and finish these four guys stories I want to m ow how it all plays out.
So far this has been a really enjoyable and lighthearted book to read! I started reading on Tapas.io, but soon discovered that the book had been moved to this platform. The only criticism I have is that the book still has a few chapters on the other site, and it was frustrating to start and not be able to finish even though the story was labeled as "finished" and all the chapters seemed to be there on Tapas.io!

Honestly I haven't even read more than a handful of chapters but I already love it! The characters are perfectly flawed. The real life emotions and situations are amazingly written. I'm excited to continue the journey and watch how their stories unfold.
