One wedding, two best men,
one hell of a love story!
Declan Ramsay's brother
Oliver was marrying Annabelle Aiken at a fairytale castle on the banks of Loch
Ness in Scotland. The bride and groom decided that Annabelle's gay younger
brother would share the best man duties with Declan. Declan had never met the
kid who was to be his joint best man. Sam Aiken was abroad, working as an
interpreter and finishing his studies. He wouldn't meet Declan until a few days
before the wedding, so the best men communicated and planned their speech by
email for more than a year.
But on meeting Sam Aiken,
Declan is surprised to realize the kid isn't a kid at all, but a tall, blond,
and athletic young man. Declan is sure he's straight, so he's alarmed by the
ferocious attraction he feels for Sam. And as the attraction is reciprocated,
the events at Dunloch Castle change everything Declan has ever believed about
himself.
But, is Samuel Aiken all
that he appears to be?

I picked this up from the
author from a free audiobook site. I was expecting a good MM romance and I got
that. What I wasn’t expecting was the added bonus of a twist leading into the
next books. (I will let you see what that is on your own.) I was pleasantly
surprised and was like OMG!
Sam and Declan are both
best men at Sam’s sister and Declan’s brother’s wedding. They have been
exchanging emails for a year. Declan also works for Sam’s dad. What Declan didn’t
expect was his attraction to the younger man, since Declan is straight. (or at
least thought so and no this is not the surprise twist.)
I loved all the
characters, the setting, and the writing style. I was engaged from the beginning.
This is a new to me
narrator and while not a favorite I did like the accents. I think that was the
perfect touch to make this story even more intriguing.
If you like romantic
settings, castles, age gap, gay for you, and shocking twists this is for you.
Isobel Starling spent most
of her twenty-year professional career making art in Ireland. She relocated to
the UK and, faced with the dreaded artist's creative block, Isobel started to
write and found she loved writing more than making art.
