MM Interracial Romance

On a night out with his ex-wife and best friend, Lorie, Lawrence Reynolds is introduced to Mat Bailey and his life will never be the same again.

For the first time in his life, Lawrence has found someone he wants to spend the rest of this life with. However, he has a huge obstacle, he's never come out to his father. Lawrence is an MMA fighter, and his trainer and manager is his own homophobic father.

All his life he's had to hide his true self behind a façade, scared of his father's disapproval.

After messing up and hurting Mat badly by publicly denying their relationship, Lawrence will now be in for the fight of his life. Unfortunately, this one can't be won with his fists, and the reward is more valuable than a belt.

Coming out could win him the man of his dreams but lose him his father and his career.

Will he come out, fighting for love?

Contains adult scenes not suitable for under 18 years old.

When he meets Mat and doesn't defend him against his father's verbal abuse Lawrence has to decide to come out to his father or loss Mat forever. This is an emotional journey Lawrence takes to find happiness and self acceptance.
Narrator Mitchell Pett does a wonderful job.

I know everyone has their own timetable and circumstances as to how, when, if they come out, but I was massively disappointed that Law didn't stand up for himself with his dad etc... I was also disappointed that in the story he got drunk and had sex with a woman-NO WAY!!! That can't happen with all his protestations about no interest in the female body plus they were like brother and sister. Yuck!! Too whack!!! Life is too short for major pretenses like this-live it!!
Not a fan of Dan's lies about his sexuality and club ownership! JERK! The 180 change in homophobic dad was truly unbelievable. It was rushed and too fast after all his hate speech. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job.

3.5 I enjoyed this book. It was an endearing tale about friends who entered into a marriage of convenience and had a child. As mature people, and best friends (which is mentioned an innumerable amount of times) they divorce and decide to co-parent amicably. After the split, the ex-wife falls in love with someone else...oh and by the way a romance between two men happens. I could have used less interaction between mom, dad, and stepdad and more story about Lawrence and Matt. There story did not get enough attention. Lawrence has issues with intimacy, which was mentioned in passing by both Kevin and Matt, but when Lawrence makes a grand gesture to kiss Matt in his locker room, there is no discussion from his side about why he did it and how he felt after he did it. Names: 1) Having two characters with similar sounding names, Lori and Lor (nickname for Lawrence) were confusing at times when you are listening to the story. 2) Lawrence’s dad is identified as Ben after the blowup with Matt, but Doug in the last chapter. On a personal note, “sexual preference” is antiquated language. LGBT persons don’t “prefer” to be LGBT, they just are that way. I cringed every time I heard that. 3) I am not sure if it is an oversight or a matter of skill set, but the author does not seem able to describe the ratites of Black people. She mentioned his skin color and his blue eyes...and the blue eyes were mentioned a lot!!! Leading me to believe the only way the author can describe a Black person is by giving them features you would normally associate with Caucasians (although there are Black people with blue eyes, it is not very common).


So: 1) Did I enjoy the story-Yes 2) Did I enjoy the narrator - Very much so 3) Would I re-read this book - no 4) Would I recommend this book - Maybe

Cute story, but...
