Description

Can your favorite hockey players finish their first season together undefeated?

Five months in, NHL forward Ryan Wesley is having a record-breaking rookie season. He's living his dream of playing pro hockey and coming home every night to the man he loves—Jamie Canning, his longtime best friend turned boyfriend. There's just one problem: the most important relationship of his life is one he needs to keep hidden, or else face a media storm that will eclipse his success on the ice.

Jamie loves Wes. He really, truly does. But hiding sucks. It's not the life Jamie envisioned for himself, and the strain of keeping their secret is taking its toll. It doesn't help that his new job isn't going as smoothly as he'd hoped, but he knows he can power through it as long as he has Wes. At least apartment 10B is their retreat, where they can always be themselves.

Or can they? When Wes's nosiest teammate moves in upstairs, the threads of their carefully woven lie begin to unravel.
 With the outside world determined to take its best shot at them, can Wes and Jamie develop major-league relationship skills on the fly?

Warning: contains sexual situations, a vibrating chair, long-distance sexytimes and proof that hockey players look hot in any shade of green.

    I’m in love with their love! I love how much they care for each other! I love how they overcome all their problems! I JUST LOVE HOW MUCH WESLEY LOVES JAMIE! One of my favorite book/saga of all times!!!! I wish I could read more about them! I know I’m asking for too much, but I want to read about them as parents, I can imagine Wes spoiling their daughter, loving that girl as much as he loves Jamie :,) I can imagine them teaching her how to play hockey and that warms my heart :,)

    Elle Kennedy & Sarina Bowen have done an amazing job of sharing what came next in Wes & Jamie's lives together. It's in no way perfect, they are living a half life, hidden away from every eye. It is impossible not to feel their every emotion as they bubble off the page. I loved this story and was just so struck by just how powerful this story was. Love isn't always easy, but it's made more difficult when you can't fully share your life with the person who inhabits your heart. We feel that fully here.

    I loved US. I have read a lot of reviews where people didn't like the second one as much as the first. The first book is the story about how the characters fall in love. US is relatable in the sense that just because you love each other your relationship is not always easy. Every couples goes through struggles its part of being in a relationship. The point is can you make it through the struggles and learn as a couple. I love Wes & Jamie and after reading him I wanted more. US really delivered for me. P.s Blake was annoying at first but he really does grow on you. I love his character
  • Excellent!

    I always love it when I get to spend more time with couples that I connect with and love, and Wes and Jamie captured my heart after Him. This journey takes us to our guys settling in as a couple, and their day to day routine; but what compounds an already stressful time is keeping the relationship quiet during during Wes' rookie year with his hockey team. This understandably takes a toll on the guys, and Jamie really seems to struggle to find his place. The one thing that never wavers is their love for each other. All in all, I enjoyed the continuation of Wes and Jamie's love story, and was happy to see that we will get more.
  • Him and Us ABSOLUTE PERFECTION

    Let me just start by saying I really did enjoy this book. I love these guys and I' d still read more about them. I really felt for Wes in this book and loved the hea. Now I have to say this: how about having someone read a draft for continuity errors. They really annoyed me. They went to camp, and Jamie received the last delivery of the box in lake placid, not lake Champlain! In the box were Ryan e Wesley, jr's test results, meaning his dad's name is Ryan, not roger! Jamie's mom gave them the mugs at thanksgiving as a housewarming gift, not a gift for the holidays. I think there' also an error about who drove Wes to. Camp that first summer, but I'd have to look it up. Please, please have someone check this stuff.
  • Such a good sequel to an amazing love story!

    Him was a great book...Us was off the charts fan-freaking-tastic...I loved how much Ryan and Jamie loved each other...how they are trying to build a life together, but also grow and evolve in their individual lives all while keeping their budding relationship a secret from those they work with...Ryan is an NHL player in Toronto and Jamie is a coach for a junior team...they are doing a fine job living inside their bubble until a teammate of Ryan's moves into the building and makes himself at home in their apartment...Blake is the best...he doesn't know the meaing of the word boundries...he is a big loveable guy who just wants to be friends with not only Ryan, but with Jamie too...Blake's presence cuts into the limited "sexy" time that Ryan and Jamie have and this starts to cause problems...while they do both truly love each other, they also begin to realize that closing themselves off and trying to hide away from the outside world really isn't the best plan...a crisis occurs and quickly brings into focus what is really important to both of the men...there are more bumps along the way, but it is so worth it in the end...I cannot wait for the next book from these two ladies...
