A Mountain Man Walks Into His Brother's Best Friend by Mal Trevino

4.0

I loved Noah's character so much in this book. He was such a sweetheart, and his sense of humor really had me chuckling. I also always love to see a little demi representation sprinkled into books here and there, and although he never labeled himself as anything more than Gabe-sexual, it was nice to see. I had mixed feelings about Gabe. He was so back and forth about whether he was okay with pursuing Noah. I felt like he was on the fence about every objection he came up with, but he still acted on every doubt by fleeing. And he always fixed it, but it felt kinda shitty. Almost like he knew Noah would still be in love with him, so any hurt he caused(even accidentally) wasn't anything he couldn't just erase with a quick apology. And him saying he loved Noah back so quickly didn't feel as genuine as the other love declarations in this series. Overall though, this was a really cute book, and I did enjoy it! The slice level was a bit more tame than the last two, but I felt like it was a good balance.
