I was very much looking forward to this third instalment in the Licking Thicket series and it did not disappoint.
Dunn and Tucker are best best friends and have been for years. Unfortunately for Tucker, Dunn is straight. Dunn is also wonderfully oblivious and I really just wanted to give him a big squishy hug. Tucker can’t stop his feelings for Dunn and at times it wrenched my heart on his behalf. They really did know each other inside out even before Dunn finally recognised what his feelings for Tucker actually were. The heat level then dialled up a notch as they explored the chemistry between them.
The road to their HEA is littered with obstacles - interfering people, lack of
communication, new emerging emotions, but they do eventually get there with help from some of the meddling side characters.
This is very enjoyable and I read it in one sitting. This well crafted story includes a bit of angst, some feels and a delightful cast of main and secondary characters. Highly recommended.
