Book 821: Love Me Tenor (Perfect Harmony #2) – Annabeth Albert

Picking up not long after where Treble Maker leaves off we find Trevor (Lucas’ friend and acapella group mate) struggling after coming out to his family and being disowned. A production assistant from the previous show has invited him to be on a new reality TV singing competition made of boy bands and he jumps at the opportunity because it’ll give him housing for a few more months while he tries to figure out his life.

What he didn’t expect was to meet and then fall in love with Jalen, the assistants adopted brother who can sing, but doesn’t have the training of the rest of the group. Jalen has his own anger issues and spends the first half of the book antagonizing Trevor.

Book 820: Treble Maker (Perfect Harmony #1) – Annabeth Albert

I grabbed this one when Albert shared an ominous “these might be leaving Kindle Unlimited soon” on her Facebook. This was one of the few series of hers I haven’t read yet (and honestly had been avoiding for some unknown reason). I also grabbed it because we randomly re-watched Pitch Perfect and Pitch Perfect 2 recently.

I’m not 100% sure, but I believe this was her first published series. You can tell she’s definitely grown a lot as an author since it was published. Her writing has matured and her stories and characters are so much richer and more believable.

Book 818: Keeping Kellan (Keeping Him #2) – Amy Aislin

This is the story of Kellan, the quiet brooding friend and teammate of Ethan from Keeping Casey, and his childhood crush Brant, a landscape architect in his Canadian childhood hometown.

Book 817: Better to Believe (Harrison Campus #4) – Andy Gallo

Who doesn’t love a younger brother and best friend fall in love off-limits MM Romance? I didn’t purposefully time it this way, but this one and the next one (Keeping Kellan) both ended up being this trope.

Coury, roommate of Luke (from Better Be True) is on the verge of becoming a professional baseball player, starts spending time with his best friend’s little brother, Liam, fresh out of the dorm because of homophobic abuse and never had a real boyfriend. The close proximity adds fire to the flame Liam has been carrying for Coury since they were young, and helps Coury see Liam not as the little brother that tags a long, but as an attractive sexual being in his own right.

Nico finally gets his turn! Nico, Isaiah’s over-the-top flamboyant roommate from Better Have Heart, is dumped by a hyper-masculine frat boy because of his over-the-top personality, so when Luke, another sporty masculine frat boy needs a roommate (literally same room) for the summer he hesitates, but realizes it’s his only option.

Needless to say, there’s only one bed and so they’re forced to share and continuing sharing through a series of unfortunate air mattress delivery attempts.
