Can a fake relationship between best friends turn into the real thing?

After years of estrangement from his parents, Nick is finally going home for Christmas, but not without backup. He wants moral support, so his best friend and flatmate, Jackson, agrees to pretend to be his partner so he can go with him.

It’s easy for Jackson to be convincing when his feelings for Nick are as genuine as ever. He put his crush on the back burner long ago, but acting out a role he’d love to play for real is harder than he imagined. Holding hands, kissing under the mistletoe, even sharing a bed for the sake of the charade... He can’t help wondering what he’s let himself in for, and whether his heart can take it.

Emotions run high as Nick grapples with family issues, and the sexual tension between him and his best friend becomes difficult to ignore. But if he and Jackson give into the temptation to be fake boyfriends with benefits over the holiday, what will it mean for their future as friends once Christmas is over?

Contains: best friends to lovers, pretend boyfriends, daddy issues, mistletoe, and a happy ending—of course.




Jay lives just outside Bristol in the West of England. He comes from a family of writers, but always used to believe that the gene for fiction writing had passed him by. He spent years only ever writing emails, articles, or website content.

One day, Jay decided to try and write a short story—just to see if he could—and found it rather addictive. He hasn’t stopped writing since.

Jay writes contemporary romance about men who fall in love with other men. He self-publishes under the imprint Jaybird Press.

When baby makes three, Christmas will never be the same for Ten and Jared.

There's not much that Tennant Rowe hasn't accomplished, and all before reaching thirty. Hoisting the Cup, marrying the man of his dreams, and becoming a spokesman for LGBTQ2+ athletes' rights have filled his world with great joy. While his successes on and off the ice have been beyond his wildest expectations, he's now wondering if it's time to add one more tiny addition to his already wonderful life.

Being a dad to Ryker and marrying Ten are the two of the best things in Jared's life, only something is missing. He always wanted more children, but with Ten and the Railers riding a wave of success, how could he even broach the subject of adoption or surrogacy with the man he loves? Jared would give the moon and the stars to his husband, so when Ten reveals his desire to be a father, they start a journey that will fill their Christmas with a new and special kind of love.

USA Today Bestselling Author V.L. Locey – Penning LGBT hockey romance that skates into sinful pleasures.

V.L. Locey loves worn jeans, yoga, belly laughs, walking, reading and writing lusty tales, Greek mythology, Torchwood and Dr. Who, the New York Rangers, comic books, and coffee. (Not necessarily in that order.) She shares her life with her husband, her daughter, one dog, two cats, a pair of geese, far too many chickens, and two steers.

When not writing spicy romances, she enjoys spending her day with her menagerie in the rolling hills of Pennsylvania with a cup of fresh java in one hand and a steamy romance novel in the other.

Baby Makes Three, the latest book in the Harrisburg Railers series is a slight departure from the previous Harrisburg Railers novels.

This book is less about hockey and more about family, which adds real depth to the main characters of Tennant and Jared Madsen-Rowe, who we meet in the first book of the series, Changing Lines.

While it's great to read about Ten's exploits on the ice, Baby Makes Three shows us an entirely different side of Ten. And Jared.

The only thing I didn't like about this book is that there is no information on who the secondary characters, who are part of Ten & Jared's hockey family, are. In my opinion this leaves the reader somewhat in the dark as to who people are unless they've read the other books in the series.

Because of the superb writing and interesting story line I would have given Baby Makes Three a 5 out of 5, but I must give it a 4.5 out of 5 for the reason stated in the above paragraph.

I do recommend Baby Makes Three, but I recommend reading the books in order:

Book 1 - Changing Lines
Book 2 - First Season
Book 3 - Deep Edge
Book 4 - Poke Check
Book 5 - Last Defense
Book 6 - Goal Line
Book 7 - Neutral Zone
Book 8 - Hat Trick (novella)
Book 9 - Save The Date (novella)
Book 10 - Baby Makes Three (novella)

Yes, it's a lot of books, but a worthwhile read.

A snowy cabin with one bed? That’s only the first step toward Gideon falling in love.

Gideon is too old to be fought over at Christmas by divorced parents who should know better. The prospect of a Christmas on his own is better than having to face either of them. When Rowan hires him for a wintery break in Maine, it seems like a safe choice until his PA’s meddling family shows him something entirely new: Love.

Rowan hiring his boss for a trip back to his moms’ place for Christmas sounded like a good idea at the time. Killing two birds with one stone, he can cheer up Gideon and possibly steal a kiss under the mistletoe. After all, he’s been hiding his attraction to the man for years, and maybe with some Christmas magic, he can help Gideon see what is right under his nose.

RJ Scott. The name alone should send readers rushing to get this book downloaded onto their eReader. The name RJ Scott is synonymous with awesomely awesome amazing stories.

As with the first two books in the Boyfriend For Hire series, Darcy (book1) and Kaden (book 2) , Gideon is full of amazing, complex, engaging characters and a story line that pulls you into the lives of Gideon and Rowan and won't let you leave until you've read their story from beginning to end.

Gideon is a beautiful love story, but not without some angst. But then again, what love story doesn't have some angst in it? Even some real life relationships have some.

It's always nice to see characters from the first two books appear in this book, tying the three books together.

Gideon can be read as a stand-alone story, but reading the three books in sequence will give the readers a more enjoyable experience.

This leaves me with just one question for Ms. Scott. When will we see Boyfriend For Hire book 4?

5 out of 5 stars and a strong recommendation.
