Two Chicks Obsessed with Books & Eye Candy

Sharing our love of M/M Romance

Stumble (Outback Boys Book 1) by Becca Seymour: Quick Review

March 15, 2021 by Denise

Trey has a problem he’s worked hard to manage. It involves not turning into a bumbling mess while around a gorgeous brown-haired man who’s way out of his league. Eight months’ practice from being part of the same LGBTQI+ adventure group, Outback Boys, means he’s perfected the skill.

That’s until an epic stumble makes his head spin and he throws all caution to the wind. But there’s no turning back now, especially since a snow-filled trip means they’re forced to spend even more time together.

Mark has no concerns about the changes unfolding between him and Trey, the giant of a man who’s adorably reserved. He’s been crushing on him for so long that he’s eager to explore more. But when their latest adventure is over and they fall back into the real world, balancing work, life, and a relationship proves more challenging than he envisioned.

Something has got to give, and neither man knows the best way ahead without upsetting the status quo. Can the two Aussies work their way through their new connection, or will they stumble at the first hurdle in their way?

Outback Boys is a sweet and sexy low-angst M/M romance series complete with bruised butts, rope burn, and overworked muscles… all in the pursuit of adventure, of course!

This title was originally part of the Winter Wonderland Giveaway. The Amazon version, however, includes new bonus content–two extended scenes and a must-read epilogue.

Amazon – Kindle Unlimited

Release Date: March 27, 2021

Hello, hot cover, I’d buy this book for you alone! In saying that… Trey and Mark were also adorable, so I definitely recommend!

Mark and Trey are regulars with the Outback adventure group and though they’re about as opposite as two people can be, their attraction to one another is obvious.

I love how open and assured Trey is, how he might be a tiny bit self-conscious or shy, his personality isn’t one to dwell on it and it makes for some pretty entertaining moments with Mark, who he not only has a crush on, but it’s made worse when an extra-long flight to the US has Mark going into protective mode and wanting to be there for Trey because he knows he’s afraid.

I loved how sweet and attentive Mark is even from the beginning. Having been on plenty of ski trips that his wealthy life has provided him, he didn’t mind a bit to stay on the easier slopes and watch Trey attempt to try to learn without hurting himself and he just enjoyed spending time with Trey, no matter what they were doing.

Another thing I loved is Mark’s easy-going and laid-back nature. Money wasn’t a problem between them, though it could’ve been and so often is when there’s a good gap in income, what with stubborn male pride and all that, but there was none of that here. It was perfectly handled, I think, where Trey just took everything with a good humor and didn’t make it a big deal either. I like that.

I also liked Mark’s family and accepting they were of Trey, and though there is an ex that pops up a time or two, I liked that he basically stayed in the background and the story stayed low-angst and just sweet.

I haven’t read any story by this author that I didn’t adore, and this one was no different. Such a sweet ending too, I cannot wait to see what happens with Pete, I really hope the next story is about him!

Overall, a great start to what I know will be an amazing series!

Two Chicks Obsessed with Books and Eye Candy
Every November by Bec BensonMy reviewIf you've ever moved away from your hometown and returned for holidays, you will totally understand some of the feelings in this book. Thanksgiving- especially the night before Thanksgiving- is always a big one for seeing people. People are home, they want to see friends before family obligations the next day and you see a million people at the local bar. Some people love it, some hate it. And with Evan and Marcus we get both.Marcus hates going home but does it out of some sort of twisted loyalty in his head. The black sheep of the family who moved away to the city, has a job that he hates and who seemingly never does anything right. Evan, on the other hand also moved away, but he loves his job and he loves coming home to see his adoring family for the holidays.They meet in the bar, have a quick hook up and that's the end of that. But it isn't.They run into each other again the next year. And the quick hook up is a bit longer.And the following year.And as much as Marcus hates going home and dealing with his family, he looks forward to seeing Evan again. But one terrible conversation with his parents causes Marcus to spiral into a deep depressive episode and he cuts off communication with Evan.I was impressed with the portrayal of depression in this book. It gets glossed over, joked about, and "cured" way too easily usually. But Marcus' fight with depression felt so real. Because even when you are doing well, it's there, lurking, just looking for a reason to take over. And once it has it's claws in you, it's really hard to break free. No matter how much you want to.And Evan tried to help. He really did. But there's only so much you can do. The only thing I didn't like was Evan being upset/mad at Marcus. But I tried to remember that most people don't know what depression truly entails.I enjoyed this unique story and obviously the portrayal of mental illness. I was very glad to see them get their happily ever after.4 Pieces of Eye Candy ...
