Cat's Review of Fire and Onyx (Carlisle Cops Book 5) by Andrew Grey @andrewgreybooks @TTCBooksandmore

Undercover sheriff’s deputy Evan Whittaker is close to infiltrating a vicious local gang. He just needs to find an opening. Instead, he finds Wes Douglas, a web designer who is raising his irresponsible brother’s son. Wes agrees to help with a stakeout, but he pays the price when his home is destroyed in a shootout.

Evan’s always been a loner, but when he invites Wes into his home, living together feels right, and the two men only grow closer as they adapt to each other’s lives and rhythms. A future as a family looks brighter by the day, but all of that could collapse when Wes’s brother—and his connection to the drug dealers—crashes into the life they’re carefully building.

I loved this book. But I have been reading the series from start and while it does stand alone well, it might help you understand who the other characters are if you have read the previous books. 

I loved both Evan and Wes and of course, Greyson stole the show, (Jordan and Jeremiah almost did when they came over one night dressed as Daniel the Tiger. That was just too cute) Greyson’s reaction when Jordan took off his suit was to die for.

Cuteness aside, this is a serious mystery/suspense. Wes’s brother (Greyson’s real father/sperm donor) is involved in a drug ring. Wes wants Evan to try to get him out and he promises to try his best.  Trey is Evan’s in to infiltrate the new gang after a big gang war in front of Wes’s house resulting in the house exploding and Wes ends up staying with Evan.
The relationship is very fast-moving (one week) but I felt believable.

Andrew grey has a way of weaving all sorts of threads into a story. This one has cuteness, romance, sweet sex, suspense, twist, nail-biting moments and some very sad moments (have tissues handy). The story is absolutely perfect.

Andrew Grey is the author of nearly 100 works of Contemporary Gay Romantic fiction.
