Synopsis
They call me the Charmer. My best friend Wade tells me it’s because I’m suave and mysterious. But he doesn’t know my secret. The one I’ve kept hidden from him for twelve years. The one I will never reveal to him — Rhys
They call me The Brute. Probably because of my physique. And, let’s face it, because I’m a total dick at times. So Rhys likes to tell me anyway. Thing is, there’s something Rhys isn’t telling me. Something I’m dying to hear from his lips. His sinful confession. You see, I know Rhys’s secret — Wade
Rhys Damon has spent most of his adult life watching Wade Tucker bed woman after woman, his dark desire for his best friend and business partner a secret he is determined to take to his grave, since he knows it will never be reciprocated. With their design firm thriving across two continents, Rhys finds himself content burying his heartache in a string of meaningless, casual sex arrangements. Until the night everything changes.
When Wade Tucker stumbles upon his best friend calling out his name as he pleasures himself, he knows his relationship with Rhys will never be the same again. A year later, the memory of what Wade saw is still branded in his mind and his feelings for Rhys have evolved into something he never anticipated. As tension mounts and the relationship between the two business partners becomes increasingly strained, things finally come to a head the night Wade follows Rhys and discovers him with another man.
After an explosive confrontation, Wade makes Rhys a proposition he can’t refuse: that they try things out for six weeks. Six weeks of exploring a side of each other they never knew before. Six weeks of torrid kisses and sultry touches. Six weeks of screamingly good, scorching hot sex. Six weeks of utterly losing themselves to one another.
But as the end of their proposition looms in sight, can Wade persuade Rhys that he wants more? Or will Rhys’s deep-seated fears stop him from fully surrendering his heart and soul to the one man he thought he could never have?
Discover Rhys and Wade’s wickedly intoxicating story in this sixth novella in the hot, contemporary romance series Nights by A.M. Salinger.

Review
This is the sixth book in the Nights series but can be read as a standalone as I had not read any other books in this series. It is also a novella.
Wade and Rhys have been best friends for over twelve years but Wade did not know that Rhys was gay or had the hots for him until he finds Rhys getting off shouting Wade’s name. Fast forward one year and the tension that has abounded since that night is finally out in the air.
This was a super hot and steamy read but lacked the angst I feel two best friends would go through when their established relationship moves to something much more intimate. I also felt it needed an explanation about Wade and his change of sexuality or was this purely a gay for you situation, I think it was but hard to read between the lines. I would have loved much more romance and angst to give this read more depth and emotion. It was mainly about the sex and more sex which was written well but it just needed…more.
Overall a quick romp of a read between two hot best friends so was a three star read for me but could easily have been a four star if more depth covered.
