Contract Season by Cait Nary

emotional lighthearted medium-paced

3.5

 While this follow up did not quite have the same emotional gut-punch as Season's Change, I still really enjoyed this overall. Brody and Seamus are such sweet characters and their hook up turned PR relationship scenario is a fun twist on the fake dating trope. In this we get to see these two high profile professionals deal with the fallout of being outed in industries that are not known for queer allyship (Big Four Sports and Country Music).

Despite the high stakes of their situation, I do think there was a surprising lack of drama though. Maybe it's just me but I feel like there were some really underutilized and obvious conflict opportunities (like Brody's ex, hello?) that could have amped up the tension.

As always though, Nary has a wonderful cast of side character's that are so incredibly easy to love. I also adored the Benji/Olly cameos.
