BLURB:

Kevin Green has always been the life of the party. He’s the one everyone turns to for a bit of comic relief. With so many of his teammates coming out of the closet and living healthy lives, it’s getting harder for him to keep the secret only one other person knows: that he’s not as straight as everyone assumes when they see him out with his hot girlfriend. Now, the façade is cracking as Amber decides it’s time to follow her dreams, but she doesn’t want to leave until she knows Kevin will embrace the side of him he’s hidden from everyone but her. 

Clint Davies isn’t sure what to think of his new road roommate assignment. Kevin runs hot and cold toward him and has zero sense of boundaries. He doesn’t think before he speaks, and worse, before he acts. What starts as one night of throwing caution to the wind is instantly complicated in ways Clint isn’t prepared to deal with. He’s never seriously considered a relationship at all, much less an open arrangement with a teammate. 

Having a little fun is one thing, but will Kevin and Clint strike out when things start getting serious?

I loved this book and once I started it I couldn't put it down. I've really liked this whole series, but Sean and Mason have always remained my favorite of all the couples/trouples. With this book, Clint and Kevin, slide into a solid second place. I absolutely loved them. Their chemistry was amazing, something that is seldom a problem with Sloan's books. Some characters just fit and Clint and Kevin make it into that category. I wanted to strangle Clint at times and tell him to get his head out of his ass, but I still loved him. I loved Kevin's snarkyness. He had no filter from brain to mouth and it made for interesting and entertaining reading at times.

I wasn't so sure about Kevin having a girlfriend. I kind of cringed at first, but she turned out to be really cool and an awesome friend and supporter of Kevin and Clint's. The story is well-written, and moves along at a nice pace. I love the cameos from the former characters. They are done well, but you don't see or hear from so many that it's overwhelming to keep track, and even though we do see these previous characters from the series, all of these books can still be read as a standalone, but why would you want to? If you haven't read the series, pick it up, you won't be disappointed. Highly recommended!!
