Saint and Lucky #1
Something About You
Lucky Tyler Holloway has never felt particularly lucky. Frankly, he's as regular as can be. He works construction with his brothers, loves his small-town life, and shares a close bond with his family, especially his grandmother. Okay, so maybe he has a few secrets in his closet, like his bisexuality…and that other thing he doesn’t talk about…
Grayson ‘Saint’ St. Claire has it all: a dream job in LA, money, freedom. Saint doesn’t do attachments, which is just the way he likes it. Still, he’d be lying if he didn’t admit he missed his deceased parents, the only family he had... Until he gets an email from some guy named Tyler, revealing the existence of a grandmother he’s never met, prompting Saint to drop everything and drive across the country.
Saint and Tyler couldn't be more different. Tyler dislikes Saint on sight, but there's something about Tyler that gets under Saint's skin. It’s not until they get to know one another that everything begins to change for the better. But the Holloways and St. Claires have secrets, their pasts tied together in tragic ways. With the odds stacked against them, Saint and Tyler have to face the fact that love alone might not be enough…

What went wrong?
Maybe it was Saint, who was the epitome of every asshat I dated in L.A.: flashy car, arrogant attitude, cocky as fuck, fucking around like a bunny. He was even in PR! UGH. SO L.A. And I don't mean that in a good way.
Maybe it was Tyler/Lucky, who was antagonistuc toward Saint for seemingly no reason, although I was antagonistic too, so I can't really blame him.
Maybe it's the rather drama llama plot starring Alice, her husband, and her son (Saint's dad); it was a tearjerker. Or, rather, it was SUPPOSED to be. I thought it was too maudlin. Throw in the whole Sienna confession at the end, and I just couldn't.
Maybe it's the weak ending? The way Lucky's character was written, I just don't think he'll be happy. As such, I consider the ending a weak HFN and see problems on the horizon.
Was this a bad book?
NO!
Riley Hart has a very accessible writing style. I love that she includes bi, non-white characters in her stories.
Alice and Nana were really sweet, as was the relationship Saint developed with Alice.
Also, the sex (hello, manties!) was scorching. I'm a big fan of gay sex virgins, and Lucky was hot when he begged.
So, yeah, I liked this story well enough, but I wanted to LOVE it, and that sadly didn't happen.

It's me, not the book! My mind was wandering and I couldn't concentrate! Maybe my expectation for this book was too high but I lost interest the deeper I went into the story. I didn't like both MCs, I couldn't connect with them! Actually, their judgmental side was annoying to me! Hope you like it more than me, though!

Hands down! Without a doubt my favorite book by Ms. Riley Hart.
From the very beginning this was sheer perfection with the introduction of two grandmothers, one black (Alice), one white (Helen) who live together.
Helen tells her grandson Tyler that Alice has a grandson she never met. So he takes it upon himself to contact Grayson.
A month later, Grayson or should I say Saint rolls into their small town in his fancy corvette. Saint and Tyler couldn’t be more different and it leads to several foot in mouth moments. While this could’ve been mean spirited they rolled with the punches with a lot of charm and grace.
Typically I despise characters like Saint. There’s a thin line between confident and cocky and once you lean toward cocky you’re on my shit list. But he’s the only exception to the rule. There’s just something about him and when he and Lucky (Tyler) inevitably fall into bed, his dirty talk is just freaking chef’s kiss!
Saint’s interactions with his grandmother are sweet and filled with understanding and acceptance. The love that grew between them was so heart warming. Not to mention discovering the reason their family fell apart. My heart shattered for who she loved and all she lost, but especially the guilt she kept close to the chest.
It was supposed to be no strings between them, and I didn’t mind a bit because holy freaking smokes! Especially when Saint made Lucky’s fantasies come true. Dayum!!
Now let me count the ways that I love the narrator Sean Crisden. I had heard him a handful of times but this one cemented my undying love for him and his velvet voice. He certainly brought the dirty talk to a whole new level! I’ll be binge listening to him for the foreseeable future.

This is just a truly beautiful romance. There's little in the way of angst, it's gentle and perfect for a read when you just want to see love happening between two people who weren't expecting it.
It's not ordinary though, Riley's storytelling is too good for it to ever be that. There's a secret love element, there's an absolutely fabulous secret kink element that I'm not going to spoil but which is incredibly sexy and quite a turn on.
There's an accepting family and a best friend who gives the best advice and there's two men who are wonderful together when, on the face of it, they have nothing which should draw them together.
It's not quite a frenemies to lovers romance but there is an element of that as Lucky and Saint get off on the wrong foot at the start. But both men slowly reach out and the friendship turns into something deep and lasting.
I loved pretty much everything about this book. There's a couple of awesome Easter Egg appearances from some of Riley's other book couples and I loved that. I might have squealed just a bit when I realised who was in the diner and who the group of LA friends were :)
This is a book to be enjoyed as it really is just a gorgeous example of two people falling in love.

**3.5 stars**
Saint : 32 yo, big shot in LA, no family, confident, even a bit cocky, openly bisexual,…
Lucky : 24 yo, living in a small town, handyman by day, loving to help others, loves his big family especially his Mum and Nana, tagged as a “golden boy”, knows he’s bisexual but no experience with men and a secret kink : manties.
You get it : they are quite opposite. They meet when Lucky contacts Saint to let him know he still has a living grandmother. Surprised, Saint decides to go and meet her and of course, also meets Lucky. Rocky start for both of them, but the attraction is definitely there.
I’m going to be honest, at the beginning, I didn’t feel like the writing was flawing, but after a while, this feeling faded and I enjoyed seeing the development of Lucky and Saint’s bond as much as their own perspectives : Lucky’s getting more assertive and Saint forming familial bounds. That was delicious for me to witness (I still miss my Grandmother so, so much….of course, I can only relate).
Going straight to book 2 : it’s far from over !!

Something About You by Riley Hart is the story of two whose lives are intertwined. Lucky Tyler Holloway is the small town hero who helps everyone in town but is especially close to his grandma Helen and her best friend, Alice. Helen confides in Tyler about Alice's grandson and takes it upon himself to contact him.
Grayson St. Clair had no idea his grandmother was still alive until he receives an email from Tyler. He tries to ignore it and keep going about his life but in the end, decides to go and meet her. His bond with his grandma Alice is instant but not with Tyler.
Some highlights:
-Small town. I felt that sense of togetherness that comes from living in small-town America. Tightknit families and friends.
-Relationship development. It wasn't rushed and moved at a natural pace.
-Bi and POC representation.
-The secondary cast. I loved all family members and Sienna, Tyler's best friend.
-I'm a sucker for heartbreak, and this book made me cry. What occurred made sense but it didn't make it easier.
-Chemistry. Tyler and Grayson were on fire!
Although I'm typically not a fan of series with established couples- I'm praying there will be more Lucky and Saint. Without giving any of the end away, all I'll say is: this story can't be over. That was a huge decision that was made by one of these men.
All in all, this was a lovely story about family, friends, self-acceptance, and following your heart.

In this story, Grayson St. Claire, a successful PR manager living in California, gets an email from a stranger named Lucky Tyler Holloway, informing him that a grandmother he didn’t know existed wants to meet him. At first he’s resistant to the idea, thinking it’s a mistake, but eventually, his curiosity gets the better of him, and he goes to meet her. He travels to a small town in Virginia, and on his first day there, he runs into Lucky. Lucky hadn’t even heard Saint’s story… didn’t know a thing about him, yet he already decided he didn’t like him.
We follow them as Saint gets to know not only his grandmother but Lucky, as well. They move from heated conversations that end with Lucky apologizing for being an ass, to Saint giving Lucky his first sexual experiences with a man.
The overall story was okay. The main characters were okay. The romance, though a bit rushed, was okay. The ending was okay. I didn’t like the way Saint was introduced into the story, and I don’t think Lucky would have chosen to be with him if he were from a larger town with more options. I did like Lucky's secret fetish, and I loved how supportive his family was of his relationship with Saint. I listened to the audiobook, and after 12 Hazard and Somerset mysteries back-to-back, this was surprisingly relaxing. 2.75 stars, rounded up.

This really was a warm romance. The reuniting of a family and the further exploration of self. Lucky was a beautiful soul, everyone’s friend and someone to be relied upon. He loved his Nana and Alice and put everyone’s needs ahead of his. After tracking down Saint and looking to reunite Alice with her grandson he realized he may have fallen for this insufferable cocky guy from LA. So the story continues with layers of pain and fear being peeled away until the realization and declaration of love come into play. This really was a lovely romance.

Really love this one. We have a small town golden boy, Tyler aka Lucky and a POC hero from LA. Tyler grew up and live in Cottage Cove his whole life and never tempted to venture out. Coming from a big family and love by everyone, he couldn't ask for more although he would prefer to have a chance to explore his bisexuality. When Tyler's grandma told him about her best friend, Alice's long lost grandson, Tyler made an effort to contact Grayson St. Claire. Although he wishes for Grayson to be reunited with his grandma, he didn't count for his own attraction towards the man himself.
Grayson St. Claire aka Saint is some kind of bigwig PR guy from LA. Finding out that he still has a living family member threw him for a loop. However, despite his uncertainty and nervousness, he still wants to reconnect with his only surviving family member. Saint is like any big city boy, confident and suave and he had some misgiving about the small town lifestyle. Tyler doesn't seem receptive of him, but Saint is glad to meet his grandma and that's all he cares about.
There are two elements to the story, one was Saint's grandma's regretful past in regards to her family. It was something that was being revealed throughout the story, though I kind of predicted what happened there, it didn't take away the heartache I felt for her. The other part was seeing Tyler explore his sexuality with Saint's encouragement. Tyler was not in the closet per se, but living in a small town doesn't give him an opportunity to meet other queer men. Saint presence is the perfect push for Tyler to finally embrace himself.
Tyler and Saint relationship developed at a right pace that isn't rush. Before Tyler even dare to admit his attraction to Saint, he had to overcome some mental barrier. Due to Tyler's inexperience, Saint is very accommodating and guiding him along the way. I was surprised when he revealed his secret fetish. It was something different that caught me by off-guard, yet turned me on at the same time.
I really enjoyed the setting of the book, everyone had such a tight bond with each other within the small town. Tyler's family is really large and when Saint had to meet them, the moment was really heartwarming. Although the happy couple had to deal with the reality of distance with Saint needing to head back to LA, I know they will work things out. I thought the ending was really nice and hopeful HFN.

This is a slightly different sort of storytelling than I recall from Riley Hart although I haven’t read some of her more recent offerings. It’s a good different though, an easygoing, slowly unfolding City Boy/Country Boy romance. Tyler dislikes his first name, Lucky, bestowed on him for his ”oops baby” status, youngest of five siblings. He’s been sheltered and protected by his family and chafes under their well-intentioned care, trying to forge his own independence. He adores his grandmother and her best friend Alice, so when Nana asks for a favor, he searches for Grayson “Saint” St. Clair, Alice’s long-lost grandson in LA. Saint is blindsided by the news but having lost his parents at 18, he eventually decides to meet Alice, showing up in town one day.
Saint and Tyler immediately start walking a fine line between love and hate, from jealousy over their importance in Alice’s life and conflict over their attraction to each other. Tyler has never disclosed his bisexuality to anyone except his best friend Sienna. But Saint is the perfect man to help Tyler explore male sex and other secret desires. Saint makes it clear he only does casual, his life is in LA and he’ll be leaving soon. That allowed both the characters and their relationship to develop slowly, the way they come together feeling quite organic, as did Saint’s growing closeness with his grandmother. I didn’t care so much for Sienna’s role near the end, nor did I completely grasp the need for Saint’s behavior at the crisis point of the story but those are my personal reactions.
I want to mention how Saint and Tyler being a biracial couple was presented. The fact of race is integral to the narrative, not used to simply give a character black skin in order to seem relevant (as I’ve occasionally found). There are racial influences touched on in scenes from the past but there aren’t racist overtones or negative impacts on the couple. I would have preferred a little more of Tyler and Saint together before the epilogue, or included in it, rather than a somewhat less than solid HFN. I’d recommend this book as a potential comfort read with an excellent character-driven, angst-free plot from a talented author.

Grayson “Saint” St. Claire was single, successful and certainly not looking for any kind of relationship or commitment. He had lost his parents in a plane crash and had always thought that he was completely alone. is own father had always led him to believe this. He was beyond shocked when an email arrived telling him he had a grandmother in some small town in Virginia, way across the country from his home in California. Saint dismissed the summons and tried to put it out of his mind, then a month later he found himself sitting inside his Corvette at a gas station in that same small town, wondering just what had he been thinking coming here for a grandmother that he knew nothing about.
Lucky Tyler Holloway lived in that small town leading a life in the shadow of his family. He lived in his parents’ basement and worked as a handy man, sometimes doing construction work on the side.
Tyler accepted the common belief that he was a "golden boy" and a good soul as he was always there to help others. He dated occasionally and even though everyone in town was sure he would one day marry his best friend, but Tyler knew that wasn't true. A vacation trip to Mexico and a hot kiss with an even hotter man had confirmed what Tyler had known all along...he was different, definitely gay and probably bisexual. He had run away after that kiss, overwhelmed by its implications and unwilling to deal with the truth of it. When Tyler sees Saint across the street from the diner, he knows two things immediately: one, the man is hot, and two, he...for some reason, is determined to hate him. Time and proximity have a way of wearing down even the most stubborn among us, and Saint and Tyler are about to feel it's over-powering effect.
The grandmothers, Helen and Alice, were incredibly sweet and funny and Tyler's family was pleasant and accepting, only wanting the best for their son and Saint was "the best" in their book. The story is a journey of self-discovery for both men...one to understand his sexuality, the other to find that his sense of home. Anyone looking to escape into a tender, sweet, romance will find it in Something About You.

June 26, 2018I'm finally coming to grips with the fact that I just can't with Riley Hart anymore. I just can't. I don't know what happened. I LOVED (there is no font big enough) her Blackcreek series, and I was waiting with baited breath for her to do a book 2 of her construction series (never materialized), but I have DNF'd the last three or four books I've read by her. I tried desperately to think it was just a fluke but, alas, it seems not.
The good in this book:
The interracial angle is done right! You know which character is black right away. Author describes him in detail and doesn't shy away from the color of his skin or his features. You can visualize him and see him as a full person, and this enhances the story and the sex!
The dirty talk - delicious! Dirty talk can go either way with me and she nails it.
The bad:
The dialogue. Good lawd. How much talking can we do?? And it just feels so teenager-like and amateurish. I really can't believe this is the same author that gave us the wittiness of the Blackcreek series. Has she changed? Have I?? I just wanted these two to get on with it already. Men in panties (manties) is not my kink AT ALL, but I was skimming to get to that part just so we could move the story along! It could have been so interesting because this was a part of himself that Lucky had never really explored, and Saint was so turned on by it and wanted to show him how sexy he could be, but instead it just...I don't know. The initial reveal and striptease were super hot, but then it got to a whole bunch of hemming and hawwing about the relationship. I was just done. The momentum just isn't there. DNF at 60% or wherever I was. I didn't go back to check.
The good in this book:
The interracial angle is done right! You know which character is black right away. Author describes him in detail and doesn't shy away from the color of his skin or his features. You can visualize him and see him as a full person, and this enhances the story and the sex!
The dirty talk - delicious! Dirty talk can go either way with me and she nails it.
The bad:
The dialogue. Good lawd. How much talking can we do?? And it just feels so teenager-like and amateurish. I really can't believe this is the same author that gave us the wittiness of the Blackcreek series. Has she changed? Have I?? I just wanted these two to get on with it already.

[ AUDIOBOOK ]
Story: 5/5.
Audio: 5/5.
Narrated by Sean Crisden.
Saint and Lucky romance is one of those love stories that made me utterly happy. Despite the fact that they’re so different from each other, they make a wonderful, realistic couple.
Saint lost his parents when he was young but he worked his ass off in LA so now not only he’s a gorgeous black man, he’s confident, has money and is actually good at what he does. Lucky, on the other hand, is the golden boy: since he lives in a small town, he’s the handyman that knows everybody and being the youngest of his siblings, makes it a bit hard to be himself. They’re both bisexual, but whilst Saint doesn’t have a problem with that, Lucky is terrified if he comes out to his family.
But how do they meet? Well, Alice (Saint’s grandma) and Helen (Lucky’s grandma), have been friends since they were young. They love each other in a romantic way, but when Alice’s son found out about this, he told his father and the man ended up dead in a terrible accident. So Saint’s father ran away to LA and never looked back –he even hid Alice from his own son. It was too embarrassing to admit that his mom was in love with a woman instead of his father.
So Alice wanted to make things right but she didn’t know how. That’s where Lucky enters the picture. He searches for Saint and invites him to come visit his grandma before she passes away.
Now, at first they don’t get along (like I said, their worlds are way too different), and they have an 8-year-old gap if I remember correctly, but eventually they come to understand and care for each other. Their romance is a bit of a slow burn even though the attraction is there from the beginning but it’s all worth it.
Saint not only gets to hang out with his grandma on the last days of her life, he also falls for Lucky in a way that I found absolutely relatable. They both have a great chemistry and they feel comfortable around each other, which makes their sex scenes both sexy and beautiful. Riley Hart really knows her craft and as usual, side characters are well constructed as well –they all feel so real, it’s like watching them come alive.
The narrator’s voice is the best and if you can, I strongly encourage you to listen to the audiobook. Also, Bryce and Nick (from Crossroads) made a small cameo and I was so happy to see them again!
There is a continuation to this story and I’m eager to know what will happen now that Lucky is moving to LA with Saint!

A Joyfully Jay review.
4 stars
A new Riley Hart book will always make me take a second look and while I have had some uneven experiences with this author, I enjoyed getting to know Saint and Tyler and the small town where most of the story takes place. Tyler is known as the golden boy as he is the youngest of five and works hard to take care of everyone around him. He always puts others first and enjoys being close to his family and his best friend, Sienna. He hasn’t ventured far from small town Virginia and that has been fine with him. He has acknowledged his bisexuality, but with a lack of options, hasn’t acted on it. Tyler also talks about a “secret desire” he has and perhaps it’s because of the number of books I read, but as soon as it was mentioned, I knew immediately what it was.
When Tyler meets Saint, the men don’t like each other at first. There is an undercurrent of jealousy there as Tyler has mixed feelings about sharing his family with Saint and Saint is jealous that Tyler knows his grandmother better than he ever will. Still, the attraction is there from the start.

It felt like I was dropped in a Nicholas Sparks movie. ;) (Minus the honey-dripping sweetness.)
Saint got an email from a guy named Tyler, stating that his grandmother is alive. After a month of hesitation Saint decided on a whim, he’s going to the little town where his father grew up. His parents died in a plane crash and he didn’t have any family left, or so he thought.
Upon arrival he meets the guy who sent him the email. Lucky and Saint had an instant dislike towards each other.
Lucky is a country boy through and through, he loves working with his hands, helping everyone in town; he’s the youngest of five and he was babied growing up, but everyone loves him, no wonder why Saint calls him „Golden Boy”.
Saint is an entitled, rich, cocky city boy. He was living THE life, had a nice job he loved, partying occasionally, having lots of sex; but deep down he knew something was missing. I felt he was a bit overconfident with the ’I suck cock like no other’ attitude. He did not win me over easily.
Despite their differences they found common ground. Lucky had secrets, and somehow he found the right person in Saint, that he can open up to. And Saint finally realized that he was lonely, and this country boy could be the answer he didn’t know he was looking for.
I have to congratulate the photographer and the cover designer. This cover is beautiful and perfectly reflects on the story and the characters.

because apparently when i can't find anything to read i just go back to what puts me in a slump haha
i didn't think i would start these books since i have read a lot of riley hart these days but apparently i don't know when to stop.
this was a good read, it did kinda lull towards the end but i enjoyed this story of Lucky and Saint. there wasn't anything too special about it. i do still enjoy riley harts writing, i think i would have loved it more if i gave myself a break from riley harts work but apparently i love to not listen to my voice of reason lol... soo on to book two.. maybe i have seen mixed reviews on book two hahah

Ha estado bien, pero poco más. Le ha faltado profundidad tanto en la relación entre la pareja protagonista, como en la trama secundaria con todo el drama de las abuelas. Se queda mucho en las intenciones, pasable.

Something About You is a wonderful story of family, friendship and love.
I'm not going into all what happens in this story the blurb gives enough. To give even more i think will take away from a beautiful read. There is just so much to fall in love with, from Saint and Lucky's story. From a small town boy, meeting a big city boy and them find what was missing in their lives through each other. To a truly beautiful family, wonderful friendships and a close nit community. I loved it all.
Also we get a brief glimpse at a certain couple from a previous book! Which made me so happy and for any Riley Hart fan i think it will for you too.

So... This book was in my to read list for a while.
Finally I decided to read it, but I didn't love it. It's a good book and I love this author, but this story didn't convince me much.
The family drama didn't really affect me, and I didn't felt the connection between the mcs. Sure, they were awfully hot together and the steam was really really good, but I don't think they could work as a couple in the long run.
I'm not sure if I'll read the next book in the series, I'm not curious enough at the moment 😕

Whoa, hey, hot cover!
So, I’m in love with Lucky and Saint. Let’s discuss, why?
Lucky is the epitome of the boy next door. Small town, Mayberry type town, where everyone knows you and has since birth. He’s the baby of his family, and even though his family is very protective of him, he’s the one who doesn’t know a stranger, and helps everyone when he can. Always. He’s his Grandma’s favorite, and how can he not be? He’s so polite and respectful and helpful. He’s just a sweet guy. All around handyman and helper of his brother’s construction company, he’s content in his little town. Content, but not really able to be himself. That is, until Lucky’s grandma confesses that her best friend/roommate/honest soul mate, if you believe in that sort of thing…. Has a grandson out there that she’s never met. And in their aging years, I thinks he knew that Lucky would do something about it…. It’s what he does. He lives to make people happy. So, he looks the guy up and contacts him.
Lucky lost his mom and dad in a plan crash that his dad was piloting, leaving him with no other blood relative and alone in California. Or so he thought, he was mighty surprised when he gets the email from Lucky, telling him that he has a grandma who’d love to meet him. It takes him a month to gather the nerve, but when he eventually does, I don’t think either man was ready for the other one. Or maybe they were, they were just fighting in.
Lucky didn’t like the arrogant out of towner at first; in my opinion, he envied the life he had, he just didn’t realize it at the time. Saint was everything that Lucky didn’t allow himself to be and Saint didn’t care who knew it. It was hard on them, but agreeing to live together to fix up Saint’s grandma’s house, they realize their jabs at each other and banter, is really attraction. Saint offers up himself for Lucky’s experimentation and they both jump on it. It’s hot too, shew!
At first, Saint gets to know his grandma and he learns so much about his dad and his family that he didn’t know before. I loved their relationship, I loved Alice and way she supported the people she loved. She was outspoken and crude and just…..amazing. I wanted to wish her real so I could know her. And she had more in common with the boys than they could ever realize. Between getting to know his only living family and helping Lucky fix up the house that was destined to be his one day… he also taught Lucky some things in owning who you are as a person and not to be ashamed of the things you like and the way you like them. I loved watching Lucky come into himself, and I loved watching Saint help him get there.
Unfortunately, the more time they spent together, the more the experimenting turned into feelings and pretty soon, the feelings turned into love…. How would it work though? Saint lives in California and Lucky is halfway across the country? And Saint has to go back, his whole life is there…. So, what do we do?
It’s a humbling, sometimes heartbreaking story to read, but it was beautiful. I don’t say that often, and I know it’s cheesy, but I loved it. It’s about growing up and finding yourself and in finding yourself you find love. A great one.
I would most definitely recommend this one; there’s little angst, no cheating, no unnecessary junk. Just goodness and a very satisfying happy for now. I wouldn’t mind reading more about these two, but if not… I’m happy where they ended up…together.
5 stars from me!

This was another great story by Ms. Hart. Two guys from different ends of the spectrum – Lucky is a handyman with a large, caring family, sheltered but doing well in a small town but with little options to explore his sexuality; Saint is a successful PR executive who thinks he has no family after losing his parents, who grew up in the City and likes to keep things casual. Lucky is instrumental in introducing Saint to the grandmother he didn’t know he had, and their relationship grows soon after Saint shows up to meet her.
They start out not liking each other very much for different reasons, but that starts to change pretty quickly. I love stories about guys exploring their sexuality, and this one is fantastic as far as that goes. Saint pretty much offers himself to Lucky on a platter for him to explore. Of course, they go through some iffy periods like whether or not they are doing things for the same reasons, etc. But, they had great chemistry, and it was easy to see it would become more. There are some other bumps in the road for them, but they are definitely headed in the right direction. I loved how they each were able to show the other things from their own lives and were able to show each other some of the little things they each were missing.
All in all, this was a really enjoyable story about an interracial couple that was very tastefully done. Ms. Hart does another great job with the dialog and creating solid characters you want to care about. There are also some cameos of guys from her other books, which was really fun to see. I definitely recommend this if you’re looking for a nice comfort read that’s fairly low on angst and just a heartwarming of two guys who just fit together and fall in love.

When I said there needs to be a reading list. I really ment it. The best way to read the series or standalone. It's all well and good to list the subject matters. Librarians do appreciate one less task. Especially when the book doesn't contain topics of their interest. I should know.
Please also consider the "world" not just the book "series". It's something I've noticed in my reading selections. That an author will create world building that gets explored at different angles. Like this book for instance. Yes! It's an interrelationship, a.k.a. two different skin tones getting together. The only race is the one you run. In my opinion. Besides the term "race" was developed by people that value money over all other things. The more slots (categories) they can put you in. The more they can keep you from said funding sources.
Anyway back to advocating for "world" in book series. This one should be listed as "Saint & Lucky Series" and "(Crossroads) Hart World". Because they all come from the same world built by Riley Hart. In this instance.

I did the audiobook for this one and the narrator was amazing, I only cringed a bit at the sex scenes this time lol.
The story itself was pretty good. I liked how small town community relations were portrayed, the complex feeling of being tied to your family history even when you want to explore. What I enjoyed most was how race and racial dynamics and perception were discussed, both with Saint and Alice as Black people in the US, and with Saint and Lucky's interracial relationship. It was good that the author(white) didn't just make Saint Black to draw in black readers, that his identity as a black man actually had weight in the book and in context of a lot of his actions. It was a fun read

There’s something about Riley Hart books that I just love! I haven’t found one I don’t like yet and I’ve read a lot of her books! I loved this small town, estranged family romance with an opposites attract vibe. Saint and Lucky were so different and it worked really well for them!
There was a small cameo from Bryce and Nick from Crossroads and I was so excited to see them even just for one scene! They are one of my favourites.
This is book 1 of a duology and ends on a HFN for the MCs. You could absolutely finish after book 1 but I’m really excited to read book 2 and find out what’s next for these two! I listened to the audiobook and as usual this narrator did a great job!

Wowzer does this story cover so many relevant topics!! Saint and Lucky are two people looking for something in life, love, family, and within themselves. Lucky contacts Saint about his long lost family member, Saint wants to discover more about his family but doesn't know if he wants to change his current lifestyle. The two of them find truths that they didn't want to believe and new connections that change their lives. There are so much LGBTQA+ topics and conversations within this story that I am so happy that I read this book, this month at this time. Beautiful, sexy, and heartfelt.
This specific video book review will be included in the June 2019 wrap-up.
