Not Dating Material by Saxon James
5.0

Molly moves into the craziness that is the Big-Boned Bertha house and meets housemate Seven for the first time in somewhat unusual circumstances.

Seven is all hard edges, tattoos and piercings with plenty of snark. He’s also very perceptive, protective and damaged from his traumatic childhood experiences which taught him that he didn’t deserve love.

Molly is all puppy dog eyes, sweet, trusting and so open with his feelings. He truly wears his heart on his sleeve and is not afraid to be vulnerable. Unfortunately that’s only lead to a string of disasters when it comes to dating and a deep need for feeling connected to others.

I loved watching these two wonderful men muddle their way from pretend dates for coaching purposes to a well deserved HEA. It wasn’t easy for them as feelings and expectations began to change over time but with some help from their found family members they got there.

This is a very enjoyable and engaging read with a great cast of characters to keep things interesting, plenty of heat, a very unique tattoo and some feels along the way to a heartwarming ending that left me smiling.
