Review: Breaking In the New Guy – JC Holly

After a messy breakup with a cheating boyfriend, Luke Clarke decides to do something he hasn’t been able to do for a long time—let his hair down and have some sleazy fun in the restroom of a gay club. Days later, his friend sets him up with one of her other friends, Brandon Main. Luke is reluctant at first, thinking it too soon, but they eventually meet and both men are surprised to find that they already met, back in that restroom. Despite the odd start, a relationship soon blossoms.

But Luke’s ex isn’t through with the relationship. He wants Luke back and threatens to reveals Luke’s biggest secret—the fact that he’s a shape-shifter, able to take on the form of a wolf.

How will Luke get rid of Johnny before the man reveals his secret, and regardless of who tells him, how will Brandon react when he finds out that the man he’s falling for isn’t entirely human?

Reviewer’s Thoughts

I really enjoyed “Breaking In the New Guy”.  I like paranormal romances, and shape shifter/wolves are a favorite.  They’re mysterious and sexy.  I like a bit of depth with my Man love, and this one has that in spades.

I don’t want to give away too much of the story, so just let me give you a small rundown.  Luke is just out of a relationship (the ex is a cheating bastard), and he’s not looking to rebound.  Brandon isn’t looking for a relationship either, so they find themselves in a bar having a few drinks and…maybe a little anonymous fun?

The story takes off from there.  The boys are introduced to each other through a mutual friend…who I absolutely adored!  She was hilarious, and I want to be just like her when I grow up.  “Breaking In the New Guy” has pretty much everything.  Romance, mystery, secrets, and action.  Oh, and there’s sex. Lots of hot, steamy, panty melting sex.  Brandon and Luke are meant for each other the moment the meet, and it’s obvious.  They have a great chemistry.

It’s not a long book, and that’s fine by me. Sometimes, I just really like a book that is short, sweet, and to the point.  Certainly, I want character development and an actual plot.  I don’t something that’s just a bit of cheesy dialogue between the sex.  I got what I needed with this one.  This is the first title I’ve read from JC Holly, and I’m going to search for, and read, more of them.

I highly recommend this book.  Whether it’s shifters that you love, or if you’re into the heat two men can create together, this is for you.
