My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a story that will make you laugh, cry, and sigh. Kellan and Milo are brothers. We only get to meet Kellan through his best friend, Benji’s eyes. And of course, through Milo’s eyes. See Kellan has passed away. And grief does terrible things. Guilt does terrible things. Death does terrible things.

Benji believes it is his fault that Kellan has died. Milo believes that isn’t the case. And when the two cross paths again a year later, boy, have things changed. The two used to be teenage boys but both have now grown into men. And the attraction is hard, very hard to deny.

Benji fights his attraction because Milo is still Kellan’s little brother. And those feelings just aren’t right. But when you’re “bad at being good” doesn’t anything really matter?

This story hits a lot of feels! It includes parents who are struggling, themselves, with the life after the death of their adult child. Parents who place blame on the kid “bad at being good”.

Highly recommend this book, especially if you like detailed MM action and sweet innocent love. Thankfully this author loves HEA.

Bad at Being Good (An MM Brother’s Best Friend Romance) by A.L. Morrow This is not my favorite genre but once I read the first page I was hooked! This book is full of romance, love, sadness, grief and feelings of not doing enough. Benji and Kellan are best friends but when Kellan dies and Benji doesn’t save him, Benji will spend the rest of his life feeling guilty. When Kellan was alive he always told him that his younger brother Milo was off limits so he always steered clear but when he sees him and see’s how much pain he is over losing Kellan so Benji can’t take it. He leaves town and tries to clear his head for almost a year. Milo is throwing himself into dance, his one love and barely surviving as it is. He misses his brother so much but also misses his friendship with Benji. When Benji moves back to town and they rekindle their friendship, feelings become more involved. Benji is also having to deal with his mom being an addict so there are some triggers so be prepared. Wonderful story about love,friendship and loss.

I am not going to lie. I am a sucker for brother’s best friend romances. Do I read them often? No. So it is a familiar troupe that I enjoy even more when I do.

Benji promises his best friend Kellan that will not try to get with his little brother Milo, romantically. He promises without shame, knowing that Milo, who is the perfect son and dancer, is off limits.

When tragedy strikes and Benji sees the pain in Milo’s eyes because of him, he may not be able to keep his promise anymore.

From the cover I thought this was going to be a cute MM story. No, this was one hell of a ride! An emotionally rollercoaster that I was unsure if I wanted to get off and wait how others felt, or keep going and see how I felt towards the end.

Grieving the heartache of grief, I know all too well. It changes you in more than way one especially when you are grieving over the loss of someone close to you. This also handles forgiveness and secrets.

As much as secrets annoy me, I do anxiously wait for when the secrets get told.

I don’t want to say too much about this story. For MM lovers, I recommend it.

Bad at Being Good is a MM Brother’s Best friend Romance that is quite the emotional journey. I wasn’t expecting it to be as deep in emotions as it was. This is a story not only about forbidden love but grief and how one deals with it. I’ve read other books by this author but this one is definitely my favorite yet. The characters are relatable, connected and fully developed and the chemistry between them is off the charts. Are promises meant to be broken especially when there’s guilt mixed in? I highly recommend reading this emotional journey to find out what happens next. I look forward to reading more from this Author.

This book was so good! I love a good trigger warning. I am not a big fan of the MM expletives, but I am not a fan of MF expletives either and I am married to a man. BUT, I cannot fault the author for that because the storyline and even the expletives are incredibly well written.

This book hit me in the feels. Benji and Milo are two amazing characters with an immense amount of personality. They both have been through a lot dealing with the loss of Kellan and their parents not being the best. However, I love a good happy ending. I cannot recommend this novel enough. I may have found one of my new favorite authors!

Having read other books by Morrow, I knew this book would draw me in almost from the beginning, which it did. The characters are well developed, making it easy to picture the different ways they are dealing with the terrible loss they all experienced and well as things in each’s personal life. I would recommend this book, but make sure to take the triggers mentioned by the author into account.

Milo and Benji are adorable. They’ve both been through so much, but they still push through. Against all odds, they can’t help but come back to each other. There were moments I was laughing out loud, and others where I was shaking my head and rolling my eyes. I’m glad I read this book.

This was a really good book. Grief is big emotion in this book. It brought some of these characters together in a forbidden romance. Milo loves Benji, but for Benji Milo is off limits as promised to his best friend Kellen. When Kellen passes Benji and Milo find comfort in each other. Is it enough love and comfort to last?

Benji has not been the same since he saw his best friend die in front of him, but although he is struggling to come to terms with it, his world is suddenly imploding around him. Getting kicked out of school being the top one, so while he is moving back to his family home he is also conflicted that he will see Milo again, his best friends brother.

Milo has had a crush on Benji for year’s but he has never really tried to push the attraction but when his brother died all that vanished, Benji vanished from my life and he lost two brothers not just Kellan, but now he is back in town and this is now the chance to pursue his crush and see if the conversation he heard long ago between Kellan and Benji is still there.

When Benji and Milo meet the chemistry between them is off the charts but can Benji bury the promise he made long ago to Kellan or will he purse happiness with Milo in the end?

This book was just delightful to read, although it may have triggers for some people the words on the page added to the overall feel of the book rather than a shock factor. I loved the calm nature of Milo and that he was determined to show Benji that there relationship can go on and that they were suited to each other. Benji’s character was flawed in just the right way and what I mean is that he was not inheritably a bad boy but circumstances portraited him as that but once you got to the heart of the character he was a brilliant half to Milo.

The story was heart felt and pursued the regrets of each of the characters regarding the death of a friend, son and brother with them each showing the guilt they carried regarding the death of Kellan. I really enjoyed this book and would definitely read more by this author.

I absolutely loved this book, start to finish. Watching Milo and Benji heal together from Kellen’s passing as well as their family struggles made my heart ache in some spots, but it was beautiful. The growth they had in this book was well done, and all around the book was a very well written and well developed story. Highly recommend!

Bad at Being Good is a best friend MM Romance and what an emotional read. This is a story that had me hooked right from the beginning and I devoured each page. Emotions ran high in this story, romance, secrets, turmoil, grief, forgiveness and promises. This is a fantastic story and I highly recommend this read, but please keep in mind to check the trigger warnings.

Kellan is Milo’s big brother but also Benji’s best friend. Never expecting the worst, Kellan unexpectedly loses his life and a downward spiral of grief and guilt with so many fingers pointing on “fault”..Milo has always been in love with Benji, but after Kellan’s death, Benji pushes everyone away dealing with his grief differently. After a year, Milo and Benji reunite…questions are asked and some answers you do not want to hear….but after it is all said and done…..will Milo and Benji be able to have the love and forgiveness they deserve even when some very hard secrets are revealed?

This story is fantastic and the author did a great job on sensitive subjects. Very well done!

Benji made a promise a long time ago and now he finds it harder and harder to keep that promise. Milo has grown up from the boy he used to be into a man, a man that Benji promised to stay away from. When grief brings these two men together emotions come into play and their attraction cannot be denied.

This is an engaging story that pulled me in right from that start. Milo and Benji are each dealing with their own problems but together they may be able to find their way. It was nice to see the relationship grow between the two men. Emotions take center stage in their story and will pull on your heart at times. The two learn that life is full of ups and downs but with the right person at your side you can survive and even thrive. The author does a nice job of bringing these characters and their emotions to life.

Warning right up front: this book covers some very serious topics including death, grief, and addiction.

I enjoyed this book. Each of the characters comes to life across the pages. The multiple POVs allows you to really delve in to how each of them are dealing with the guilt and grieving surrounding Kellan’s death. They are each trying to heal in their own way (even if some of those ways are VERY unhealthy). As Milo and Benji are there for each other, trying to keep the other one from spiraling, promises made in the past are harder and harder to keep. When the twist came I was definitely shocked but it was woven nicely into the story.

I enjoyed the characters as they grew both as individuals and together. I also enjoyed getting a glimpse of the other people that surround them in their daily lives. At times, the story felt so real that I had to remind myself that these characters are fictional. A good book that I couldn’t put down til the end.

4 Stars

 

Bad At Being Good by A.L. Morrow is a superb MM romance with a best friend’s (younger) brother/brother’s best friend element, chemistry, drama, angst, tragedy, promises made, pain, emotion, and steam.
The story also contains sensitive topics which some might find difficult to handle, such as; grief, death of a loved one, mental health issues, addiction, drug over dose, and guilt.
The author has done a fantastic job of developing her characters, crafting each into fully realised individuals with their own unique quirks and flaws. And I appreciated that they continued to grow and develop over the course of the story. Each dealing with their own baggage, as well as all the emotions that came into play. Their shared pain, struggles, and challenges also made this story, and characters, tug on my heartstrings a little harder than I expected.
Well worth the read.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, A.L. Morrow!

**Readers are advised to check the Author’s Note for content sensitivities.**
“But promises are meant to be broken, and if there’s one thing I’m bad at, it’s being good.” I can relate.
I love the name of this book. I have read a lot of AL’s books and have enjoyed them all, so I was excited to see a new book was out. I grabbed it and jumped right in, and I was not at all disappointed.
I am so glad the story is told in my favourite way and that is dual POV. It is the best way to have a story told because you connect with the characters more and it reveals more about them and their thoughts.
Bad at Being Good is a LGBT romance tale. This MM Brother’s Best Friend Romance tale is sexy and is bit of an emotional read. It’s a tough journey for them after one man’s death made everything fell apart.
It is so easy to love these characters and feel for them when there is grief, pain, sorrow, hurt, longing, wanting, hate and love are just a few things they are going through. There is also drama, tension and redemption. I just wanted to take all the pain away from them I was so invested in them.
He’s back! Will he break his promise to stay away, or will he follow his heart?
If you’re a fan of sexy MM tales, then you will love this one.

From the first few sentences, I was hooked on this book. It gets you right in the feels.
The characters are well-written and relatable. You can feel their struggle with grief coming through the pages.
I personally don’t usually read content warnings, so I don’t know what those are specifically for this book, but if you’re sensitive to reading about the grieving process, death of a sibling, or drug/alcohol use, proceed with care.
This is definitely a would-read-again book for me!

This book was much more emotional than I expected when I started reading it. The story heavily addresses the grief people feel when they lose a love one and if you have ever experienced that feeling this will really resonate. The author really handles.the subject well and you get the watch the characters navigate through this period in their lives.
I loved the characters in this book. They had such a great connection despite everything they had to try and overcome. I was rooting for them the whole way through and couldn’t wait to see how things would turn out for them. This was a great book to read and I would recommend it to anyone.

This story really hits home if you have ever dealt with grief of any sort. The way that everyone in the book is reacting and dealing with their grief, allows the reader to see the various ways that grief can be dealt with. Not all of them are healthy ways but that is what really connected me with the characters because everyone grieves differently. There is a twist that happens in this book which I fell really made the story. It wasn’t expected but was so incredibly well done that I can’t imagine the book without it. The growth that the characters have individually and with each other is amazing and shows how having someone to help you through grief can be beneficial. The forbidden romance that happens is amazing it is a slow burn because of the grief that the characters are dealing with but it is there and it seems organic. This was a quick read for me because I got sucked into seeing how all the characters not just the main ones were handling things and if things would get better over time. This book has it all from relatability, raw emotions, love, steam, and growth. Over all, it is a win and probably something I will read again.

This is an emotionally charged book. Right from the start it deals with the grief from the death of Milo’s brother. Grief is an individual item that we all process differently. We can tell in the story how each character processes it in their own way. Benji was Kellan’s best friend. He promised not to mess around with Benji and tried to keep that promise. This is an intense story that will have feeling every emotion the character’s do. The story is well-written and developed. It’s a very good readd.

Six years ago, I promised my friend Kellan that I’d never mess around with his little brother. I accepted it. I didn’t regret it, and I didn’t think twice about it. Milo Sterling—the good student, perfect son, and promising dancer—was off limits.

But that was before.

Before we went away to college. Before Kellan died. Before I flunked out of school.

Now, I’m back home, and Milo’s different. He’s quieter and colder, no longer a boy but a man. And that hurt in his eyes? I put it there the night I failed to save Kellan. I have a lot to make up for. Falling for Milo, no matter how much I want him, would be one more thing to add to my list.

But promises are meant to be broken, and if there’s one thing I’m bad at, it’s being good.

Messenger (Star-Crossed Celestials Duet #2)Messenger by A.L. Morrow
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Cyrus and Jace are two men in love, but who cannot be together, Jace has been exiled and forced to leave Las Vegas, or Sin City as it is more commonly known and Cyrus is feeling well and truly lost without him, but he has to keep up appearances within the celestial community and that includes keeping Jace a closely guarded secret, as well as his transgressions with him. There are only a few people who actually know what happened between them and why Cyrus does not seem his usual self, not to mention his work is keeping him occupied, at least until the night falls and he searches for a way back to his one true love.

The person in question just happens to be a demon, a demon with connections, but as Cyrus ventures off the beaten path to find him, he tries to keep to the shadows and hope that his nightly activities are noticed by the powers that be, however, fate as usual is not on Cyrus’s side. One night, after he tries to continue his nocturnal searches, he comes home exhausted and to a dangerous sign, but things are about to get much worse for Cyrus when he is attacked by enemies whom he should be protected from and as they leave him for dead, an unlikely caretaker shows up, his angelic ex, who also happens to be someone who broke his heart in the past and has a hard time trusting.

While all this is happening, Jace is just trying to survive without Cyrus, so when he hears that the messenger is dead, he loses all hope and does the one thing he has been banned from doing, returning to Las Vegas, but when he gets there, he discovers that all is not lost and that Cyrus is not dead. Together, they uncover a sinister plot which could change everything they believe and everything they are working towards, but will they be able to foil it and save Sin City while both staying alive? This is another paranormal romance with a thrilling mystery throughout where it is a race against time to uncover the players and the game, where secrets, lies and revelations all appear out of nowhere and leave the same way in this enticing tale of star crossed lovers, angels and demons.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Messenger, the sequel in the Star-Crossed Celestials Duet, follows Messenger Cyrus after his love Watcher Jace was exiled from their community. Heartbroken, Cyrus starts searching for Jace, but his search proves to be dangerous to him when dark forces intercept Cyrus. Hiding away, Jace hears of the events and thinks that Cyrus is dead. Jace decides to return to the community to find that Cyrus is a live and that there are plans to change the community, worse than ever before. Now, Cyrus and Jace must decide whether they should save each other or save the community. Which one will they choose? Find out in Messenger.
The sequel greatly compliments the first in the series. The characters are still loveable and relatable with relatable feelings. The story’s evolution keeps the reader on the edge of their seat and mystery after mystery keeps the pages turning. The love between Cyrus and Jace is almost palpable through the pages. AL. Morrow does an amazing job of describing the world in a way that the reader feels as though they are there with the characters.
If you are looking for a suspenseful romance with a fantasy element, look no further. Messenger will keep you hooked until the very end. Make sure to pick up a copy of Watcher, the first book in the series, for a more enjoyable experience with Messenger. Just as a warning, there is some content that may be sensitive to some readers. Such content is described in the Author’s Note. Overall, I love this duet.

A. L. Morrow has written a brilliant tale of Romeo and Juliet, a story of star-crossed lovers but in a celestial setting. This book kept me on a roller coaster of emotions, from sadness at a loss to joy for the lovers being reunited, but then distraught for everything they had yet to experience. I want to go back and read book 1 so that I can put together the pieces of their back story. This was an amazing read and I highly recommend it if you are a fan of a happily ever after story. What amazing characters Jace and Cyrus are, along with all of the other characters that we come across along this journey.

Watcher and messenger two beings from opposite sides that are always supposed to be enemies. Yet Jace and Cyrus feel a pull like no other and face the worst imaginable if they act upon it. love is not ready to be denied. The two are forced apart and their bond is put to the test and when one thinks the other is dead all bets are off.

This book continues to bring the reader into the imaginative world of the paranormal. No matter what side they are on Jace and Cyrus are good together. The two work hard to find their way and they will fight to keep their love. Emotions are strong in this book and it will pull on your heart. Their story is fast paced and there is a lot going on. I enjoyed seeing the two stand up and fight for what they want. The love between the two shines through in everything that they do. Both of these characters endeared themselves to this reader and I was quickly pulled into their story. This is an interesting take on the story of Romeo and Juliet. The author has created an engaging world with interesting characters and I am eager to see what will happen next.

Make sure you read book one!!! We come back to our leading men, Jace and Cyrus. And the world’s are in turmoil. You have to like retellings to truly enjoy this. This conclusion didn’t disappoint and I am looking forward to getting more from this author! I am always a sucker for a retelling!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

After reading the first book in this series, it leaves the reader hanging on what will happen with Jace and Cyrus’ relationship after Jace is exiled. Well as this book starts, Cyrus is on a mission to find Jace wherever he can think of in Las Vegas. He ends up finding something quite unexpected and gets attacked. Luckily a caretaker comes to Cyrus’ aid during his time. Word travels fast and Jace ends up hearing that Cyrus is dead. The unfortunate thing he comes back to is discover a more devious plan involving them. I very much enjoy the paranormal elements of this story interwoven with the R&J retelling background. If you enjoyed the first book, you will definitely enjoy this one as well!
