Science & Jockstraps (Ace's Wild #1) [Liam & Isaiah] by Christina Lee & Riley Hart

This novella was HOT ~fanning myself~. Though there's quite a lot of sexy-times in this one I gotta say I still feel like the romance part, the buildup of the relationship - friends to lovers - was done BEAUTIFULLY. Not that I expected any less from Christina and Riley and as usual I wasn't disappointed. I got EXACTLY what I bargained for.

Liam and Isaiah have been roommates and somewhat "secret friends" for the past year. They enjoy spending time together even if on the outside they couldn't be more different - The science-y Liam and Isaiah the jock. But they somehow do fit. Only problem is, outside of their dorm they don't mesh. It feels wrong, to both of them. The gap is simply too much.

When Isaiah find out (by mistake) a kinky side to Liam he realizes he can't let him experiment if he's not going to have someone SAFE to do it with and so he offers himself. Liam is stunned but as Isaiah confessed to being bi and REALLY being into it (and Liam) - Liam accepts (a dream come true if he cam be honest..).



Yet things do exactly go as planned when this little "experiment" turns to so much more. How can they have a relationship if Isaiah is so deeply closeted, not to mention afraid his athletic career would be harmed by coming out? Liam has been out all of his life, being closeted is not something he wants to do. So what now?

You already know they worked it out in the end, as this IS a romance novella. Liam and Isaiah simply WORK together as Isaiah was not only a closeted bi but a closeted geek as well. They were simply ADORABLE together. Loved how they expressed their emotions towards one another when they were alone. Though they took their time with actual words, their actions spoke VOLUMES.

Endearing read really. Get ready for some fun (light) kink.

Science and Jockstraps is part of a multi-author series of books that take place in the same fictional town. Each story can be read in any order.
