Good morning pornies! I hope you are feeling well and are in the mood for a cute reading. I was done with this story in a matter of minutes, and I know you will devour it as well, because who doesn't like a a dose of sweetness? Today's I'm speaking about Always You, by Nell Iris. Thank you so much to Gay Book Promotions for sending me a copy!
Short, certainly, but cute, sweet, sexy and effective. It aroused me a little, I have to say, but the romance was front and center in this story, so don't expect anything too sexy apart from some dirty talk and insinuations. Although we could have had a longer story, I still liked the result.
Nell has a good hand and describes everything with a charming, immersive style. It's easy to feel into the skin of the characters, reminding us of that time when we loved that straight friend, what it was to stay silent, enjoying the company, dreaming about reciprocated love but dreading rejection. Oh, bittersweet times!
This story gave me a good time, and hope the same happens for you. The simplicity of it all, the drama and romance perfectly blended and the human characters will certainly make you smile more than once. I did, at least. As I said, I just wish this had been longer, a bit, to get to know the characters more or see more action.
About Nell Iris:
Nell Iris is a romantic at heart who believes everyone deserves a happy ending. She’s a bona fide bookworm (learned to read long before she started school), wouldn’t dream of going anywhere without something to read (not even the ladies room), loves music (and singing along at the top of her voice but she’s no Celine Dion), and is a real Star Trek nerd (Make it so). She is a bisexual Swedish woman married to the love of her life, a proud mama of a grown daughter, and is approaching 50 faster than she’d like. Nell lives in the south of Sweden where she spends her days thinking up stories about people falling in love. After dreaming about being a writer for most of her life, she finally was in a place where she could pursue her dream and released her first book in 2017. Nell Iris writes gay romance, prefers sweet over angsty, short over long, and quirky characters over alpha males.

Thom Novak feels like a walking cliché: the gay guy desperately in love with his straight best friend, Lee. But he's willing to keep his feelings hidden, to do whatever it takes, as long as they stay friends forever. Lee Conway loves sharing an apartment with Thom, his best friend since birth, and would be happy doing it for the rest of his life... no matter his current girlfriend's opinion on the matter. But he's never been known for being in contact with his emotions. When something happens to upset the status quo, Lee pulls away. Has Lee learned how Thom feels about him? Will it mean the end of their friendship? Or is there another reason Lee needs time to think? A more... hopeful reason?
