The steamiest addition to this series yet, and full of love.
From the blurb:
Love. Four seemingly innocuous letters that have caused James a lot of grief. Growing up, he thought he had his mom and dad’s love, and his first boyfriend had said lots of pretty words—“love" included. But when push came to shove, the only one whose love stuck around was his mom.
And yes, he knows how pathetic that sounds, especially given that his mom is now busier than ever, happily planning Valentine’s Day for her two partners. Things are changing, though. James also has a beloved partner. A man he’s ready to introduce to his mom, and maybe even say those terrifying three words to…
He just has to make it perfect.
Leon, on the other hand, is far from perfect, and has no plans to try and be anything other than what he is: the office bad boy who is finally facing his ADHD head on…while also reckoning with the fact that he's head over heels for his ridiculous, adorable boyfriend.
With the help of new friends and his loveable cat Yarmen, he’s sure everything will work out just fine.
Love Mediation is the third novella in the Conflict Mediation series. The series is MM romance with trans rep and follows James and Leon as they explore their relationship, form new, long-lasting friendships, and dote on everyone’s favorite cat, Yarmen.
Angel's review:
This series is lovely, each story is glimpse into Leon and James's love story. They may have started out as enemies but they aren't anymore, they are so much more than they ever thought they would be.
In this specific book we see Leon and James work on themselves more, Leon is trying out new ways to manage his ADHD, and James is trying to learn how to live his life without being his mom's sole caregiver.
I want to start by saying, these CANNOT be read as a standalone, you must read all the books in order to fully enjoy and understand the contents of the stories. I think this one is the one full of the most steam, the most growth, and the most emotion too. I think this story in particular was my favorite one in the series so far because of how much these two grew in this one. They've been slowly growing throughout each book, but in this one we saw Leon start embracing his ADHD, admitting his feelings, and being honest and vulnerable. Whereas James finally recognized that he's struggling with living with life now that he doesn't need to be his mom's caregiver.
I liked that these two bonded together even more, I think that their differences compliment the other. I don't personally love steamy scenes, and while this book IS steamy, I liked the way DC gave those scenes a purpose for being there.
All in all, another great look into James and Leon's life!
