Joel Leslie and Anthony Ferguson nailed this.

See All My Latest Reads (Review Quick-Links) My ARC copy of the book was provided by the author for a fair, unbiased review. Yet I'd still rate this one at 4.25 stars for the sheer enjoyment that it made me feel.

Yet, since they were so even-keeled, I didn't feel quite the same level of raw excitement that I felt while reading Eden's ' Fake Out (Fake Boyfriend #1)' story. The story overall felt fairly laid back, with two great guys getting to know one another much better, as feelings developed. Davis and felt for what he was going through.Īll of the additions to the main plot felt organic and never forced, so I was glued to the pages as I read. There was also a side-plot where one of Law's martial arts students, who Reed taught in school as well, was suffering from abuse at home. Both MC's were fairly level-headed, so while there was hurt, the pair eventually worked through the deceit and anger. The story wasn't as angsty as you might assume. Reed's friendship had come to mean so much to Law, and the sexy bits were bringing on genuine feels, that he was terrified that his little revelation would result in the loss of both.īut as one would expect, secrets can't remain hidden forever, and when the truth came out, it came out spectacularly badly. Of course, Law was extremely conflicted as he constantly chickened out in coming clean that he was neither straight nor the brother he'd been pretending to be.

The book was much more about the developing friendship and subsequent feelings between ' straight' (*cough-bi-cough*) Law and very much ' not-straight' Reed, which was a joy to watch. And when sex happened, they pretty much did the deed, then Law ran for the door. The story had steam, but it wasn't what I would call rife with it. Trust me, it's way less confusing than it sounds while reading the story, which was very well-laid-out and superbly written. After the point where Reed ' thought' he was engaged in a a friendship with Law and a hookup situation with ' Anders'. Law's identical twin brother, Anders, the twin who Law was pretending to be, never even met the other MC, Reed, until significantly later in the book. Eden took a slightly different approach, which I enjoyed more than my initial ' sloppy seconds' assumption. I'd expected this to be one of those ' my brother slept with the same guy I'm sleeping with now' stories, but that wasn't at all the case here. Well, now I'm really glad I Facebook stalked Eden for an ARC of ' Unwritten Law', because it turned out to be a very fun and entertaining read.
