Sometimes you need to watch besties reunite and watch a man figure out that what he really wants is that bestie!
From the blurb:
Moving in with my best friend should’ve been simple. Instead, it’s the beginning of something I never saw coming.
Malik
Grey’s been my ride-or-die since football camp.
Then he moves in—flustered, jealous, staring at my mouth like he forgets we’re “just friends.”
He watches me like he’s starving. He blushes when I touch him.
One drunken night wrecks us both.
And then he panics because wanting me might cost him everything.
But when Grey reaches for me, shaking, desperate, honest, I know this isn’t one-sided.
I’m already all in.
I just need him to choose us.
Greyson
Football is my escape. My future. My chance to finally break free from my father’s grip.
But living with Malik changes everything.
We’ve always been close. Too close.
Sharing beds after long nights, clinging to each other when life hit hard, acting like we were something more without ever naming it.
Something in me cracks open.
I’m not supposed to want him.
Not when my father is arranging my life, my future, and my girlfriend.
But every night in that house pushes me closer to Malik, and every touch makes it harder to lie to both of us.
I’m falling for my best friend, and I don’t know how to stop.

Buy now and fall for the boys who keep getting closer until falling in love is inevitable.
Heather's Review:
This was a really sweet besties to lovers story that reunites Malik, whom we've met in the previous stories, with Greyson, his ride or die from Football Camp... Greyson arrives with a lot of parental baggage, internalized homophobia and a huge desire to both reunite with his bestie and try to make it to the NFL draft...
Despite playing in the same position, the two men don't compete, they compliment and build each other up, even before they get together...
The romance itself is sweet and steamy and builds the storyline...
With a lovely HEA and two sweet boys, this book can be read standalone, but you do see cameos from previous books.
