Lane has stayed away from his stepbrother because his longtime crush on the guy can't interfere with their parents happiness. But now they are living together and are teammates and Lane finds out Trevor may not be as straight as he thought. Offering to help Trevor learn how to be with a guy may break his heart but he has to grab the chance to experience what it would be like while he can.
From the blurb:
It’s not the worst day of Lane’s life when his team, the Toronto Thunder, drafts his baby stepbro, Trevor, but it’s close.
No. The worst day was when his mom married Trevor’s dad. Trevor’s just too good, too naïve, too sheltered. Too hot.
Lane might claim he wants nothing to do with him, but that’s the worst delusion of all. He’s always wanted everything to do with Trevor. Even when they have zero in common. Even when Trevor’s always been on the straight and narrow. Literally.
Lane’s the total opposite. He’s walked—and danced and sashayed—to the beat of his own drum, forever. Mentoring Trevor now that they’re on the same team? Sounds like his idea of hell—and heaven, too. There’s a reason their teammates call them the demon twins.
But with the final few games of the season and the Thunders’ playoff run looming, Lane’s self-control is weaker than ever. Especially when Trevor confesses that he’s been thinking about it, too.
Suggesting Trevor experiment with their mutual attraction would be a terrible idea, but Lane’s had worse, and that’s never stopped him before.
And when it becomes way more than just sex? When Trevor becomes the first guy he wants to see in the mornings and the last thing before he goes to bed at night? When they’re so completely entangled together that he couldn’t get free, even if he wanted to?
That’s a special kind of thunder.
SNik's review:
Fourth in series (Toronto Thunder), but can be read as a standalone. Stepbrothers. Teammates/roommates. Demisexual representation. Found family. Dual POV.
For six years Lane has been avoiding his stepbrother that he has a crush on, but that is going to be much harder now that they are teammates and roommates. Trevor isn’t sure why Lane runs hot and cold with him, but is willing to take Lane up on getting some practical experience when it comes to being with a guy.
The pining is real for Lane and at times heartwrenching as he struggles with his attraction to Trevor. Even the complicated blended family dynamics can’t keep Lane and Trevor from starting something casual to realizing that it could be something more. Both Lane and Trevor are likable, have to navigate their growing feelings, and struggle with communicating everything honestly as they are still two young-ish guys that have never been in a true relationship before. I liked all the supportive characters and how Trevor and Lane push each other to be better. A sweet football read.
Heather's Review:
I love a good stepbrothers story and Beth Bolden gives us a great one in Thunderstruck! As an added bonus they're teammates and roommates too! So much pining, so sweet and steamy together and such a great and accepting family dynamic! I loved how Trevor's demisexuality was explored and how sweet Lane is with him. All around, another great read from Beth Bolden!
