Book Blurb

Best friends since they were teenagers, Ward Kent and Dean Zimmerman work together at Reggie’s garage, where the reality show Wrench Wars is filmed. Outside of work, Dean is a notorious player, and as far as he’s concerned, Ward’s the best wingman ever. Little does he know, Ward is much more interested in the gentlemen than the ladies.

Then Dean’s younger brother, Ash, comes to work at the garage. Ash may be seven years younger, but he’s had a crush on Ward for years, and he’s not shy about going after what he wants.

Admitting his best friend and his brother are gay is one thing. Seeing them together? That’s a bit more than Dean can take, and he’s about to force Ward to make a decision: lose his best friend andhis job, or give up Ash forever.

 

Book Review

I have so enjoyed each of the installments in the 'Wrench Wars' series revolving around Reggie's garage, the guys who work there, and the reality TV show filmed on site. It's been fun to see L.A. Witt and Marie Sexton's takes on the whole situation as they've written alternating stories within the series.

I had as much trouble understanding how Ward could be best friends with Dean for so many years, as Ash had, and Ash really is Dean's brother. Dean sees everything the way he wants to. No ifs, ands, or buts. He believes what he believes and you can't change his mind. He's arrogant and, in my opinion, selfish in many ways. But Ward grew up in and out of foster homes and Dean has been the one constant in his life. I guess Ward hasn’t found a reason yet to buck Dean and their friendship. Until Ash comes along.

It only takes Ash two weeks of flirting for Ward to open his eyes and see what was in front of him. Unfortunately, Dean isn’t exactly kosher with this whole setup. First, he denies Ash is even gay while Ash is grinding on a guy on the dance floor of a gay club. Second, he refuses to believe that Ward isn’t like him… a complete dog, love 'em and leave 'em type. And third, Dean actually believes he has a say in all of this and that Ward and Ash will simply fall into line. Sigh.

Another very enjoyable addition to the series. A short read that is sweet, sexy, has a little drama, and some hot sex. Just what is needed at the end of a long day!
