Haitian-born professor and activist Patrice Denis is not here for anything that will veer him off the path he’s worked so hard for. One particularly dangerous distraction: Easton Archer, the assistant district attorney who last summer gave Patrice some of the most intense nights of his life, and still makes him all but forget they’re from two completely different worlds.
All-around golden boy Easton forged his own path to success, choosing public service over the comforts of his family’s wealth. With local law enforcement unfairly targeting young men of color, and his career—and conscience—on the line, now is hardly the time to be thirsting after Patrice again. Even if their nights together have turned into so much more.
For the first time, Patrice is tempted to open up and embrace the happiness he’s always denied himself. But as tensions between the community and the sheriff’s office grow by the day, Easton’s personal and professional lives collide. And when the issue at hand hits closer to home than either could imagine, they’ll have to work to forge a path forward…together.

I absolutely adored the previous two book in the series and was so eagerly awaiting this one, and I was not disappointed!
Patrice is an immigrant to the US who worked amazingly hard to reach the pinnacle of his profession at a young age. His friends have always had his back, but he’s never let a special person in to see the real him. Then he meets Easton. Their chemistry is incendiary, but the very real problems between them take some working out!
This book is so completely absorbing and emotional that I read it in two days. Then I re-read it since lack of sleep meant I may have missed details. It is an absolute joy from start to finish!
There is awesome own-voices representation, amazing friendships, strong family and lots of yummy love and a healthy amount of lust *blushes*.
It was lovely to revisit the guys from the earlier books, and quite the teaser for the last love story in the group of friends. Roll on the next book I say!
Adriana has become one of my auto-buy authors since her writing is so authentic, positive and full of joy.
Highly recommended.
I was given a free copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.
