What he got was an unexpected romance. THE TROUBLE WITH TROUBLE: When trouble strolls in, common sense walks out. STRIPPING THE PAIN: Finding happiness is just as easy--and difficult--as letting go.
Kathleen Lee is the author of sweet and sexy M/M romance novellas. She a bestseller in Gay Romance and has several Indie eBooks releasing soon. When not taking her caffeine by I.V. (well, not really) or plotting world destruction (this she does do)she can be found at home reading or dreaming up new happily-ever-afters. She resides in the Midwest with her family.
It's always a gamble when you try a new author. But I was needing something quick and this was on KU.
This box set contained three novellas, all of which were similar in nature. One MC that was reluctant on the relationship front and one that wasn't. All three had a minor conflict at the end as a result of the reluctant MC.
Nothing that was dragged out. The conflict lasted a page or so. All very easy reads, with nice steam. A cheesy line here or there. Nothing wowing but fit what I was looking for at the time.
Gigi my GR friend wrote a review for this author Kathleen Lee and I was impressed. So I said, "What the hell!" Gigi's reviews are great, and I took the leap. Great introduction to this author.
A sweetly sensual read of three m/m romances. Sexy and charming. Well crafted. Great writing.
I've read several M/M romances. Some have humor, others drama and a couple had an episode or two of violence. The violence I couldn't take. I was pleased to find this series full of emotion, fear of acceptance, and humor. All three short stories were enjoyable. Kathleen Lee is a fabulous writer, drawing the reader into the hearts and minds of men who live and love in a different way. I'll be searching for more of her work.
Sweet, fast reads all following a similar formula of one reluctant man and one devoted man determined to wear the wary one down. Good news is that the formula works for this novella set.
3 fast, great, and sexy short stories, each with a comfort/overcoming the past themes but with different twists. All stories are satisfying with pretty solid HEA'S.
I really enjoyed this triple whammy! Some hot m/m action that also loving, tender, sweet and funny. I enjoyed all three short stories, but if I had to name my favorite its the first one about the guy whose friend posts an ad in the paper.
All three are well written and thought out though. My only gripe is that they're not long enough... I want more lol

All three novella's have a little angst, miscommunication issues and one of the MC's being wary and questioning - all affected by a past deed or relationship issue. All ends on HFN's. Quick entertaining reads.
There's a nice mixture of humour and heavy in these three short stories from Kathleen Lee. This is the first set I've read from Lee and I enjoyed each one for different reasons. Book one is a sweet tale of a bisexual man having his first same sex experience with the kind guy rosette hall who he ends up falling for. Book two was probably my favourite with a guy who wouldn't give up on the man he fancied and who slowly overcame all his fears and worries. Book three was the most angst but even that had enough of the lighter moments to balance things out.
