Wanted: A Way To Control My Jealousy So I Don’t Get Sin-Binned
When my best friend goes on a date with a mutual acquaintance, I’m supposed to be happy for him, not so angry I want to start screaming.
Devon and I have been close ever since we were children, but I’ve never been possessive of him. Until now.
Seeing him with another man makes me want him in ways I’d never imagined wanting anyone before, and now all I can think about is having him in my arms. My jealousy is starting to get the better of me, both on and off the rugby pitch, and I can’t stop losing control. And Devon has noticed.
Maybe it’s time I come clean and tell him just how much I want him.
And hope he wants me too.

It’s no secret that I love Charlie Novak‘s books. I was very excited about this one. And while it was good, I was a bit underwhelmed.
Ok, why underwhelmed? I feel like it lacked story. And what plot line there was was really tamed down (jealousy). Devon and Jonny started off as best friends for MANY years- since they were teens. And now they are on the same rugby team. Devon has unrequited love for Jonny. Until friends give him a come to jesus moment. And then BAM! Jonny, always straight, is now with Devon, his bff. Never a question about his sexuality or if he is doing anything right or wrong, just jumped right in there like a man seasoned in gay sex.
And really, the book was sex, rugby and Dungeons and Dragons. Pages of scenes about rugby and D&D. Too much for me. I know nothing about either game and at times was a bit bored.
What really kept me in the story was the characters. Being that Jonny still lives with Mason and Ryan and Jonny and Devon play rugby with Mason, West, Matty, etc, all characters I have grown to adore over the course of many books.
I am more excited about the next book than I was about this one.
