Release Day Review: Top Secret by Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy

Bestselling authors Sarina Bowen & Elle Kennedy return with their first Male / Male romance in 3 years.

LobsterShorts, 21. Jock. Secretly a science geek. Hot AF.

LobsterShorts: So. Here goes. For her birthday, my girlfriend wants…a threesome.
SinnerThree: Then you’ve come to the right hookup app.
LobsterShorts: Have you done this sort of thing before? With another guy?
SinnerThree: All the time. I’m an equal opportunity player. You?
LobsterShorts: [crickets!] 

SinnerThree, 21. Finance major. Secretly a male dancer. Hot AF. 

SinnerThree: Well, I’m down if you are. My life is kind of a mess right now. School, work, family stress. Oh, and I live next door to the most annoying dude in the world. I need the distraction. Are you sure you want this?
LobsterShorts: I might want it a little more than I’m willing to admit.
SinnerThree: Hey, nothing wrong with pushing your boundaries...
LobsterShorts: Tell that to my control-freak father. Anyway. What if this threesome is awkward?
SinnerThree: Then it’s awkward. It’s not like we’ll ever have to see each other again. Right? Just promise you won’t fall in love with me.
LobsterShorts: Now wouldn’t that be life-changing...

What I thought about Top Secret

Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy have teamed up for another M/M story titled Top Secret. 

Keaton's long-time girlfriend wants to spice up their sex life with a threesome, and Keaton sets out to find a willing partner, so he signs up with a hookup app.  In the meantime, he's in the running for president of his fraternity and he's trying to get up the courage to tell his father he doesn't want an internship in finance. There's a lot going on in Keaton's life, and he would rather focus on a super cool research trip he really wants to take.

When he starts chatting with SinnerThree, Keaton's life takes a turn he doesn't expect.  You can read into this what you will, I just loved how they established a friendship via the app, without even realizing it.  That was really cool and very fresh for me.

I really loved this story.  It's not insta love (although there is plenty of lust). I didn't want to put this down until I reached the last page, and the ending was just perfection. 

Definitely recommended for M/M readers and anyone who is looking for terrific falling-for-each-other story.

An ARC was provided for review.
