He Owns My Heart by Evie Drae

5.0

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Although this book contains one of my least favorite tropes, instant love over a very short time (this book takes place mostly during one week), I actually did not mind it this time, which is a credit to the author!

Landon is a newly retired baseball champion, who has made the mistake of coming out of the closet during a reality TV show. Although at the end of the show, filmed months earlier, finds Landon engaged, he tragically finds out that the whole show was a fraud. Desperate for some human contact of the sexual kind, he breaks down and hires an escort for the evening. Toby turns out to be exactly everything that Landon has secretly desired.

Toby has developed a hard shell due to his career as a prostitute, but he finds that Landon breaks through his defenses for the first time in his life. Of course a major part of the plot is how these two men overcome the differences and backgrounds to a well-deserved HEA.

I really liked Landon (one of the sweetest men ever!) and super sexy Toby. Warning: there is A LOT of HOT SEX!! If that is not your catnip, you may want to skip this book. Although there are a lot of unanswered questions at the end, fear not. This is just Book 1 of Landon and Toby's story. I can't wait for the sequel!
