Yes Guy is a Christmas story, with a little magic, a lot of laughs and lots of heat.
From the blurb:
Saying No has to stop!
Heath’s negative attitude leads to the loss of his boyfriend, his job and the place he calls home. Now he’s determined to be a yes guy. Yes, he’d love to flat sit while the owner is away, though one look at the horrendous mess and after a painful tussle with a belligerent cat, he wishes he’d stuck to his usual no.
No is the last thing Tristan expects to hear when he proposes in front of his boyfriend’s friends and family. Humiliated, he hides out in his brother’s empty flat without asking, because does he really need to hear another no?
What he needs is a guy who’ll say yes…yes…yes… Could that be Heath?
Rogue's review:
- Christmas
- Forced proximity
- Insta-lust
- High Heat
This is a Christmas standalone story. There's always a little magic in a Barbara Elsborg Christmas story, and this is no exception. This does start out on a downer, with Heath being homeless and jobless after his not very nice ex-boyfriend Diego ends things. Tristan too has been through the mill when we meet him, his also not-very-nice ex turning down his marriage proposal so he decides to go and stay at his brother's flat - who he knows is away - to wallow and feel sorry for himself. Little knowing that Heath has also been offered the flat by Tristan's brother's girlfriend to flat-sit as he's homeless and jobless.
There's the silliest meet-cute although I'm not sure my reaction to finding someone in a bathtub in the flat I'm staying in would be to get in with them - but whatever works and it's so charming, it made me smile. A lot. There's a ton of heat between these two, and the banter is a delight, equal parts silliness and snark and I'm here for it. I really felt for Heath once we found out his sad backstory and I was happy he didn't let it colour his outlook on life, finding out why he kept saying no - and then just being needed to be asked the right questions.
This whole story was a delight with more than a little Christmas magic thrown in there. It's charming, funny, hot and a perfect holiday read.
