Two Truths and a Lyle by DJ Jamison
5.0
I read this prequel many, many months ago, and since then, I've read every book that has come out so far in this series. At that time I did not have the opportunity to review it, (as I did with the last books) so when I saw that it was going to be released (with some bonus), I went right to ask for it and reread it and here we are.
I have been lucky enough to read great authors in recent times, with a great understanding of gender diversity and the depth with which our journey of self-discovery can affect us. And also with great understanding that no matter the gender, feelings like love, joy, sadness, fear of rejection, of loss, are the same for everyone.

In this prequel we have two best friends, one who needed to get away because he believed the world was waiting for him out there, and because being in love with your best friend without it being reciprocated is... painful. The other one who decided to stay and work and miss the friend who left, without understanding why it was so heartbreaking to feel left behind.
And we have the reunion. And thanks to the "games" of some well-meaning but rather nosy friends, these two friends have to deal with those feelings.
Needless to say, it's an entertaining, funny story, with some sexy moments, and with friends who are willing to continue "playing" games in the next books!
