Well...I did say if these sequel stories were under 300 pages.... Look, I just couldn't help myself, ok?

Nate's novella is easily the best of the three. Short, sweet with some good sex thrown in made for a quick but really enjoyable read. Kevin is just too damn adorable to not love. It was easy to connect with Kevin, to sit there and read his dialogue and think to myself , "I get that reference. I love that show, too. Yea, that comic book movie did suck." Nate comes in a far second to Kevin, but he was written well. I liked his pursuit of Kevin - a bit much, but not over the top into the land of creepy and/or melodramatic. I wouldn't really call Nate a Bad Boy though. He was rather drama free and a bit too...normal. I guess its good that I tend to like normal.

Gage and Max make appearances too, and it was cool to see how all three stories connect and weave through each other. The mention of the others wasn't overpowering and didn't take away from the main plot and made for a good supporting cast for Kevin and Nate.

All in all, a good read.

I actually really enjoyed this couple. Nate and Kevin were super cute together and it was super nerdy and awesome. I only gave it 3 stars because it was so dang short. They started this relationship and then the book ended shortly after. Also the conflict seemed forced. Like they NEEDED conflict so they through something in.

I loved seeing Gage and Joseph in this book :)

Soooo good

I noticed some minor grammatical errors but it’s really cute and sweet.

Did I wish it was a longer book? Absolutely.

Did I get a cavity from how sweet Kevin was? Again, yes.

Should you read this if you like jock and nerd romances? 1000% yes.

I really enjoyed this next installment. Nate was a sweetheart, Kevin was so shy, and together they were adorable. It was nice to get a glimpse of Gage and Joseph, and I can't wait to see what is going on with Max!

Cute, short and very hot romance between Nate, owner of three gyms and geeky tech guy, Kevin. They meet when Kevin decides to build up his muscles so he can show off his tattoos that he got from Max, a friend of Nate's. Kevin goes to Nate's gym, a little worried about being intimidated by hunky muscle guys, but decides to join the gym. Liked the slow build up of romance between the two. Kevin was a little too meek, but I did understand. I can relate to his feelings. Things that happen to you in high school stay with you forever. Loved when Nate went all caveman - whew!! Hot lovin'. Good solid writing - a boo-boo or two but nothing that takes you out of the story. Apparently I jumped in the middle of this book party because there is a book one that seems to introduce these characters. But reading it as a standalone was perfectly fine.
