***5 ‘You Are My New Favorite Feeling’ Stars***

I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books in the Sassy Boyz series. I love the vibe, even when it’s dark, and how unique each of these characters are. But while I loved/really liked the first two books, I ADORED Brave & Beautiful. I was hooked on Tam and Driver as soon as I met them and couldn’t stop turning the pages as their story, which was all kinds of sweet, swoony, heart warming & breaking and smexy, unfolded.

Tam’s past has been, for lack of a better word, hellish and was forced into a life that no one should have to live, but now he’s on a better path and has a family who love him for who he is. My heart broke for Tam, but I loved his sass, his love and devotion to the Sassy Boyz and how he worked at overcoming his past. Driver’s past weighs so heavily on his shoulders that it has him living the life of a wanderer instead of facing his demons head on, until he has no choice. It was hard not to love Driver, even when I wanted to smack some sense into him. His fly by the seat of his pants mentality has made him open to any and all experiences and that makes him undeniably intriguing. But it’s his heart, though bruised, is so genuine that makes it easy to fall in love with him.

I have to admit that I was surprised, though pleasantly so, by how Tam and Driver’s journey played out. There was an easy to it that helped to offset the demons that plagued them. I loved how drawn they were to each other and how sweet, yet intense the chemistry between them was. Their acceptance of their demons early on and then their desire to simply be there for each other had me rooting for them to become more. Their were quite a few bumps in their journey, and the big one wasn’t a surprise by any means, but it was one that had to happen and I liked how everything worked out for them in the end.

From the first page I was hooked, it had the right balance of humor, heart, drama and smexyness and I loved how everything played out from start to finish. The dual 3rd person POV was done well and I liked how Tam’s and Driver’s demons were presented and worked through. And of course catching up with the rest of the Sassy Boyz, and their partners, was fun as always and though I really want Lirim’s book now, I know he’s got a bit of a road to travel before that happens, so I’ll waiting as patiently as possible and keep an eye out for who the next Sassy Boy to fall will be.

Brave & Beautiful by Elizabeth Varlet is part of her three-book series Sassy Boyz. It’s a gay romance novel about two strong, sexy male figures, Tameron Kis and Driver Ellis. Tam and Driver have a wild attraction to each other that sparks from the beginning, but each face something very painful in his past that holds him back. Tam is fighting the demons of physical and sexual abuse, while Driver struggles to overcome a painful night in his past when he lost almost everyone he loved. The story has energy and pace. From the first lines Varlet balances the story on a knife's edge.

Sometimes Driver occupies the stage to give you a clearer picture of his life and motivations, sometimes Tam comes on in all his glory and panache to reveal the story from his perspective. Varlet's writing is clear; she's knows how to tell a story that holds your interest. Much of Brave & Beautiful involves Driver and Tam discovering what, if any, relationship they will create, but the members of the Sassy Boyz dance troupe comes on to support and encourage both men.

If you like stories about dance, Brave & Beautiful is a nice read. When the Sassy Boyz get together to practice routines choreographed by Tam you can feel the beat of music and see their swagger and their energy as they execute some intricate moves.

The book has some shortcomings. Brave & Beautiful leaves a couple of storylines unresolved, but the book is part of a series, so other books may address those issues. The ending is also a tad hasty. Nevertheless, I enjoyed discovering Driver and Tam and the rest of the Sassy Boyz. Varlet weaves a fine tale and I will definitely seek out other books in the series, as well as her other novels. Dealing with trauma in a romance novel is hard; how a writer handles it can make a story painful to read-- like chalk scraping a board! Brave & Beautiful is not that book; it turns pain on its head. I could almost see the light dancing around Tam and the Sassy Boyz as they strutted on the stage, or partied to celebrate one victory or another.

Brave & Beautiful gets 4 stars, easily. Hope you enjoy this novel.

Man, did I love this one! It just clicked for me.

-From how Tam & Ellis met.
-Their banter.
-Complex characters.
-Hurt/comfort/healing. There was some f*cked up sh*t.
-Despite the heartbreak in their backgrounds, this story is full of hope.
-The pace was smooth.
-Steam factor is high.
-The best part of this book though is the relationship development. So. Freaking. Well. Written.

I can't recommend Brave & Beautiful (Sassy Boyz #3) by Elizabeth Varlet enough. 4.5 Stars.

Reviews by the Wicked Reads Review Team

Sarah – ☆☆☆☆☆
I love this series and it just keeps getting better! This third book isn’t as dark as the last one, though each of the Sassy Boyz has his own demons to fight and Tam’s past experiences may trigger some readers. I love that each of the books in this series is unique. Unlike the characters in the first two books, Driver doesn’t have any hang-ups about Tam’s gender identity – but commitment scares him senseless.

As always in this series, the relationship between Tam and Driver is sweet and incredibly angsty. Both Tam and Driver bring a whole lot of baggage to their friendship and it all gets even more complicated when they blur lines into something more. Tam and Driver enjoy a slow burn romance with a bit less of the over-the-top drama than the first two books. I really enjoyed the friends-to-lovers aspect of the story.

Tam is the choreographer for the Sassy Boyz and I feel like we get even more of the dancing here as the group fights to secure themselves a new venue and establish themselves once again. I love the dancing. I got hooked on Yanis Martel YouTube videos after reading the first book and I’m glad our boys in heels are back.

This is such a great series. The characters are original, the dancing is fun, and each of the stories is full of heartbreak and hope. While fans are sure to love this one, new readers should start with the first book.


Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
This is the third book in the series, and whilst it is about another one of the boyz, it would be better to have read them in order to get the full story. I knew it would be emotional, as Tam is a man who has definitely had a difficult past, but deserves a wonderful future.

Driver is a man permanently on the run; but just now he is staying in his friend's apartment whilst he is away. He doesn't plan on being there long, because his demons will chase him off soon, but he cannot deny that when he meets Tam, he is utterly fascinated. Even after the truth of just who is the subject of his desire is revealed, he cares not.

As they get close, both have to come to terms with their own issues, but are reluctant to open up entirely to each other. As Tam does, we get to see what a totally amazing man he is, and what a good man Driver is too. It makes for difficult reading in places, but the intensity of feeling between these two men is palpable. Whether they can do the right thing with those feelings is another question entirely.

The Sassy Boyz dancing scenes are vivid enough to bring on a bit of a glow; definitely super sexy – we must hope that the single guys will also get their happily ever afters in future installments.

"...can't cage the bird." ~Brandon (best friend of Driver)

Two broken men, each running from the pain of the past, brought together by fate and temptation. A chanced meeting in the laundry changed Driver in ways he never thought would happen. This man was like a rolling stone, gathering no moss. Driver was not one to call anyplace home, until he met Tam.

I think I was waiting on this story from book one. There was always something about Tam that cried out to be heard. The fiesty, but secretive choreographer who kept it all bundled up inside while exuding a cold demeanor, needed to be thawed.

"I’ve finally found what I didn’t even know I needed." ~Driver

Driver was never settling, "a drifter running away from his own past." Losing his family made him normadic, scaring something in Driver. Yet, whenever the past threatened to overtake him, the harder he ran. Would the man on the run finally settle after pursuing the man he had mistaken for a girl? Could two haunted spirits find peace within themselves and each other? After all, "Some hearts understood each other even in silence."

There was so much angst and tear-driven moments in this book. Each Sassy Boy had a story to tell, but so far, Tam's gutted me. To have to endure all that hurt and pain was overwhelming, yet he fought his demons, eager to survive. With Driver, he needed a grounding agent, someone willing to prove that he was worthy and prove to him that he could call one place home.

I enjoyed the wild ride Ms. Varlet took us readers on. She interjected sassiness as per ususal, mixed in a sense of we are not blood, but we are family and danced around finding your comfort zone and LIVING. There was so much growth in this book as the men looked deep inside. I don't just want more, I NEED more sass and wit and love. I look forward to the next book in the series. Two thumbs up.

I voluntarily and honestly reviewed this book without bias or persuasion from Netgalley.

4.5 Stars!!!

First of all, I have to say this series has some of the most gorgeous covers I've seen and the one for Brave & Beautiful is my favorite of the three. It's stunning! While this book can technically be read as a standalone, there's an ongoing storyline following the Sassy Boyz and you don't want to miss on the first two books, trust me. You won't regret it.

Tam is the Sassy Boyz choreographer and he's had a very hard life. I felt so bad for him when I read what he had to endure from a very young age at the hands of both his mother and stepfather. *cuddles Tam* He's femme and fabulous, brave and strong and beautiful.

Driver has been running almost half his life, hoping that his guilt won't catch up with him to no avail. Meeting Tam wasn't what he expected, especially since he thought Tam was a woman at first. The attraction between them was swift and intense, and soon, Driver is finding reasons to stay, even if he knows he'll have to leave at some point.

I loved Driver. He was really patient and sweet with Tam. Yes, he had his own issues that he'd never worked on and he was really stubborn about not facing them, but at the same time, my heart broke for him. Going through something like he did at 14 is not easy and he didn't have the maturity to deal with it then, and afterward, it was easier just to run from it. I loved Tam, too, he was so resilient. I loved that he was able to work through everything he went through and come out stronger in the end. There were a few instances in which I wanted to shake him up a bit, though. After how patient Driver was with him, I would've have expected Tam to be the same way and I was a bit disappointed when he wasn't... at first. I have to admit that Tam more than made up for it, though. The chemistry between Driver and Tam was unbelievable, and I adored that it was tinged with something more, something deeper as they got to know each other. Another thing I loved was how much of a non-issue Tam's crossdressing and Driver's bisexuality were, that was refreshing.

It was great catching up with the Sassy Boyz and their partners and I hope we'll get the rest of the guys' stories as well.

This was a bit of a slow-burn, which was perfect for Tam and Driver considering the circumstances. I adored the progression, even if sometimes it felt like they would move one step forward and two steps back. My only real complaint is that the ending was a bit rushed, I was expecting a bit more and then it was over. *pouts* Still, Brave & Beautiful was a fantastic addition to the series and I'm pretty sure you all will love it as much as I did. Very recommendable!

My 3.5 to 4 star review is up on Goodreads and will be posted on blog and social media Oct 9 release day with a guest post and giveaway from author. Social medial and blog Links will go live and more will be updated at that time.

3.5 stars
Tameron Kis lives for dancing as his escape from his past and his lack of fulfillment in his present life. He is fearful, cautious, quiet, and just getting his life together and living on his own. His looks and manner of dress make him appear more feminine. He has not really been interested in sex or relationships, due to some personal issues from his past. His dance group the Sassy Boyz are still looking for a new place to dance after their previous club closed down, but they are still an important part of his daily life.

Driver Ellis is a rambling man that would rather ride away from bad memories or problems. All he needs is his bike and the open road. But he is now back in his hometown for a bit and living across the hall from Tam. He initially thinks Tam is a gorgeous girl, but also does not mind that he is actually a male. He swings any way he wants, but does not make promises.

These two have an unexpected attraction and connection. And soon both are feeling temptation and desire. Driver is not shy with trying to drag Tam out of his shell. He makes Tam want to be braver and more adventurous. But they both have baggage, fears, insecurities, guilt, anger, and shame that have haunted them and affected how they live their lives.

Companionship and a sense of peace is something they both need. And they really both need more than that, but are afraid of it. Besides Tam is the guy who stays in one place and is predictable, and Driver is already ready to move on to new experiences and is afraid of getting stuck somewhere. He tends to run when things get complicated or too serious. But he cannot actually run from things in his own head.

This centers around sharing, hope, healing, finding safety and acceptance, and fighting demons. I could empathize more with the sweet and vulnerable Tam and understood his issues more. And Tam was at least willing to work on his issues and try to move forward. I could see how Driver was affected by his past, but his extreme avoidance tendencies and continued self punishment were frustrating. He was so stuck in his own head that I seriously wanted to smack sense into him. Both really needed to trust, share, and release themselves of shame and guilt to move on. But it will only work if they both are willing to take the risk.

This was an emotional story of two broken men finding an unexpected connection, but not sure if they will be able to really keep it. There were a few things that I wanted to know more about or to see more of. Overall, I liked this book, but not quite as much as the last two. The other Sassy Boyz and significant others Ansel and Fitch, Z and Connelly, Jae, Hop, and Lirim are all present in this installment and are really Tam's pseudo family. Driver had his two best friends, Harrison and Brandon, and his grandparents that cared about him. A couple of new characters with potential were also briefly introduced. Lirim is really struggling in this one and I anticipate he might be the subject of the next book, but there are always Hop and Jae too.

I was provided an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

First let me say I missed the boat and haven't read Fierce & Fabulous or Dark & Dazzling. Grr!!!! But, never fear! For those of you haven't read them either, you don't have too. :) I was fully able to enjoy Brave & Beautiful and not feel lost or as I was missing the inside joke. In my opinion, this can be read as a complete stand-alone. Do I wish I had read the previous books? Of course, but only because I am sure they are just as cute as this one!

And when I say cute, I mean cute, not sunshine and rainbows cute, but sweet and dramatically cute. Tam is a shy and sensitive man who is still trying to overcome the abuse (view spoiler) he suffered as a kid (view spoiler). He has his friends around him who support him and are his family. He still talks with the therapist he had when he was at a sort of youth shelter (I am not clear on if it was a detention center), even though he is no longer really eligible to receive those benefits. I felt sorry for Tam, and that's possibly (probably) not the reaction the author was going for, but I mostly felt pity and then hope for Tam.

When Driver arrives in Tam's life, neither are prepared for the changes that will happen to each of them. Driver has been running from commitment (of any kind) since his parents and brother were killed in a car accident. Driver feels responsible since they were coming to pick him up from a party, and regardless of his grandparents for friends telling him it's not, he can't help but feel it. So he doesn't stay in one place for long since he is really trying to outrun those memories and the guilt.

I liked Tam and Driver together as a couple - Driver was completely understanding of Tam's limits in the bedroom. And Tam was able to use Driver to help boost his confidence in all matters, not just sex. What I didn't like was the fact that at times they could be overly sweet and understanding.

There was a lot of this:
"You’re just so bright and stunning. Like the sun, you pulled me into your gravity and I couldn’t let go until we were both destroyed.”


And this:
Would he ever be able to fly again?


And this:
All the darkness in his life had made it possible for him to know the stars. He wasn’t going to let them fade without a fight, especially not when he was holding one of the brightest spots in the palm of his hand.


And this:
He was about to crash. In a split second everything became crystal clear. He was going to die. He was going to die without ever really living. Tam would never know. God, that hurt the most. How could he die without telling Tam that he was loved? In the dark, bruised and probably bleeding, Driver smiled through the tears.


And this:
“You are you because the light inside is brighter than all the darkness you’ve had to live through. You never lost your light, your sweetness, no matter what terrible shit life threw at you. You’ve no idea how amazing you are, and that just makes you more appealing.”


At times it was just too much. It actually felt as if this were an MF romance not an MM and Tam didn't come across as a very stronge person. Brave, yes at times Tam was brave. And bravery shouldn't have a time table. He took the steps he felt he was ready for as they came. Just as when Driver came into his life, he took the biggest leap of his life and let Driver IN! Lots of courage - heaps! But, Tam isn't a strong person. Brave, sassy - yes. But when Driver leaves at the end, Tam's spirit was very broken and he was a mess. Granted, this happens to a lot of people after a bad break up, but still...


Driver stood in the hall. He held his motorcycle helmet in one hand. At his feet was the green army bag.
“So that’s it then.” His voice shook, he couldn’t help it.

“I need to get out of here.”

Tam grabbed Driver’s wrist. “Can’t you just try?”

“Please,” Tam begged.

“Don’t go.” His lips trembled and he bit them to make it stop.

“We could be so great together. If only you’d wake up.” He shoved at Driver’s shoulders.

“I love you.”

“But I won’t wait for you.”

When he was well out of sight, Tam closed the door and fell to the floor. If Driver had asked…if he had given any sign at all, Tam would have waited. He would have waited a lifetime for just one more kiss.


These things weren't enough to make me stop reading this story, but I did wish often Tam would stand tall and proud and scream Fuck You! to Driver. :)

Overall an enjoyable read and I do recommend this one, especially if you've read the other books in this series. I plan to read them myself, it's just a matter of when. 3.25 stars.

I think this one is the best written of the three books so far. Tam's backstory is darker than Ansel's and Z's in a lot of ways, and as the quietest and most passive of the Sassy boyz, we'd expect to find his romance a little tame.

But no. This is sexy seduction, and the best combination of lust and love.

Trust with Driver needs to be built slowly, and while Driver is the perfect foil to Tam's skittering stand-offish-ness, we also realise that he has deep dark depths to, that need to be confronted and dealt with.

The perfect pair of unresolved guilt and shame.

I like that we explore Tam's dark past and the lengths he's gone to, to survive. I love Driver's immediate reaction is to see Tam as brave and strong. I enjoyed getting to see Anson and Z happy and Liriam on the mend.

There is angst sure, and miscommunication because of course, but the journey is worth taking and the strength these two derive from each other is pretty darn sexy.

The ending is adorable, even though we are denied some angry protective fierce-ness from Ansel and Z. Only being communicated through Fitch and Connelly doesn't do it justice.

Can't wait for Mad & Marvellous.

Advanced copy of Brave & Beautiful was provided by publisher and Netgalley. Thanks. Recommended for readers of the first two, obviously, as well as all lovers of brave boys who put their dark past behind them to rise up and defy the odds and show their courage and inner beauty.

Some hearts understood each other even in silence.

Brave & Beautiful by Elizabeth Varlet is book three in her Sassy Boyz series, and the first one I’ve read by this author. I was blown away by this quick-paced novel that clutches at your heartstrings and brings to life some charming boys to fall in love with.

Driver is a drifter. When his friend asks him to housesit, he’s not sure how long he’ll stay especially with his demons clawing at him from the outside in. That’s when he meets Tam.

Tam is a dancer, and he’s trying to land his next gig with his group, Sassy Boyz. He runs into Driver one night and his whole world shifts. But there’s a lot of pain bottled within Tam and the last thing he needs is a man exploding through his defenses.

He was such an odd mix of innocence and eroticism. Driver wasn’t strong enough to resist the temptation.

These pages were seeped in emotion. I spent so much of this book clutching my heart and even more reading through a watery smile. Tam has so much vulnerability to him, but there’s strength there too. Dance has gotten him through a lot and his interaction with the other Sassy Boyz stole the show.

Then there’s Driver. Tattooed and motorcycle riding hotness, but he can’t settle down and he doesn’t want to. Tam comes into his life like a rocket, and Driver has to decide to let Tam in or shore up his defenses.

It needs to be nurtured because this life is nothing without art.

I was pretty frustrated through the second half, however. There was a bit too much back and forth and I wanted more good moments because these two were just heart wrenching together. The ending dragged a bit too, but overall? I was blown away by the depths of passion explored. I’m going to pick up the rest in this series as soon as possible. I was never less than one hundred percent invested, and I can’t wait to see where Ms. Varlet takes readers next.

4 stars!

3.5 Stars for this heart-warming, sweet read.

I read this book as a standalone, but I might need to put the other books on my to-read list because this one was cute.

Tam is such a sweetheart, battling with moving on from his hideous childhood he uses dance as his only escape. I just wanted to wrap him up in cotton wool and never let him go, he was just so vulnerable and precious.

Driver is running from his past, never stopping in one place for too long and hasn't been home in 2 years. While turtle-sitting for his best friend Harrison, he meets Tam who at first meeting he mistakes for a girl but once he finds out that Tam is indeed a boy he's more than happy to try to see more of his "cute panties"

With both characters scarred from their pasts, one too terrified to move on and the other refusing look back their coming together was beautiful. A book full of longing and building trust.

Really well done, the characters in this book make it. Not a lot happens in it and the heat level is pretty low for obvious reasons but neither thing brings this book down. I still enjoyed the read and it captured my attention.

This is definitely my favorite book of the Sassy Boyz series, Tam was my favorite and the one I was most curious about due to the tiny peeks of his character in the previous books. The story of him and Driver was handled beautifully, Driver the ever patient yet commitment phobic love interest was a delight to read. I also enjoyed the fact that Driver was just so open about his sexuality. I cannot wait to read the next book in the Sassy Boyz series.

My review will be forthcoming and found over at Library Journal.

3.5* The tale didn't disappoint, but it wasn't what I'd expected for the inimitable Tam. I wanted and needed a little more.

This book can be read as a standalone, but you'll get more enjoyment out of it if you've read the entire series, as Tam was one of the standout characters for me from the start.

It's a sweet tale of two opposites who start off under an assumption, and find their individual outlook is being changed by the other, though the drifter type is still running scared, due to events from his past. I have to say that I both did, and didn't, empathise with drifter guy, because he had, seemingly, more than one chance to change his life and, he ended up hurting a couple of people who clearly wanted to be there for him, and was almost too late to make amends. I am all for a wounded guy, but not one who could do with a good talking-to, lol! Sorry! Tam's past that was revealed was devastating, but, it helped me see the guy he'd become, and I believed in him overcoming his past to be able to be with the one guy he wanted something more than just something fleeting with.

It ends in the start of a HEA that I think I believe in. I am not as sure of this HEA as I am of the ones that have come before, which is a little sad, as Tam deserved one.

I was pleasantly surprised. This was a wonderful getting to know you love story. Both chacaters had some pretty debilitating tea as they had to overcome. They come together through it all to find love was worth it. I will be looking for more from this author.

Brave and Beautiful is the third installment of Elizabeth Varlet’s Sassy Boyz series. It is Tam’s book. You can easily step (dance) your way into this series with any book. They each work as a stand-alone. I loved the first two so of course I just had to read this one as well. I can honestly say I enjoyed it but it is my least favorite of the series. I can also blame that solely on Driver.
Tam and Driver both bring so much baggage to the table. Tam’s past is horrible. It is something that no one should ever have to suffer especially a child. Tam has come out of it and is doing a great deal to live a normal life. He has a job he enjoys. The Sassy Boyz is looking for another venue to perform at regularly. He’s recently acquired his own apartment. He has amazing friends that offer amazing support to each other. They are a family, his family.
Driver has been living the life of a carefree drifter for far too long for him to give up that lifestyle. He goes from town to town looking for the next adventure until the money runs out. He picks up odd jobs to fill his pockets enough to move on to the next town. In reality he’s running. He doesn’t do commitment for anyone, ever. His friends and family can’t even get him to commit to sit down for a meal with them. In need of a place to crash while he fills his coffers lands Driver in a friend’s apartment to pet sit.
A chance meeting in the laundry room puts Driver and Tam together for this really sweet romance. Tam is shy and new to dating and discovering he may actually want to experience all that there is with relationships. Driver is charming and charismatic. I absolutely loved his reaction to finding out that Tam is a man. Best response to that ever can be found in this book. Driver has all the perfect words to help draw Tam out of this shell that he has shielded himself with. There’s a but though. Driver is an ass, a childish ass. And it has everything to do with that baggage that I mentioned earlier.
There’s a lot of baggage between these two. Once it is spilt all over their sweet happy little romance you can see that some hurts are worse than others. I think that was the thing that really got me with Driver. When he has that moment where he pours it all out to Tam I sat back and had this huh moment. I don’t think for their relationship to work that Driver’s damage needed to be as big, hurtful, or damaging as Tam’s but I was left wondering what Driver’s issue was. How could he rationalize the running for all those years over that? Perhaps it was his age when it happened and his mind stayed stuck on how the fourteen year old Driver handled it.
I didn’t reflect this is my rating but it annoyed that crap out of me. Motorcycles do not have an accelerator. I have never driven my Harley anywhere. Driver not only “drives” his Harley he also “hits the accelerator.” I’ve twisted the throttle, I’ve rolled the hand grip, a riding buddy claims to have cranked the throttle, but none of us have ever hit the accelerator.

This was my favourite book in the series so far, it had the right mix of angst and comfort and wasn't overly dramatic. Both MCs were realistic and felt true to their character and both went through some serious development towards their happy ever after.

The life Tam had led was horrific, but he hadn't ever broken and I could totally understand Driver's need to escape from his past but the two together were beautiful as they overcame all struggles to find each other. The rest of the Sassy Boys add in their usual support to this crew of young men who've each found their family together.

"Brave and Beautiful" is a wonderful addition to the Sassy Boyz series! Tam has always been my favorite of the boys and his book definitely did not disappoint. This would be a great read for existing fans or people picking up one of Elizabeth Varlet's books for the first time. In turns sexy, sassy, and heartwarming, "Brave and Beautiful" hits all the right buttons for people who love love. 5/5 stars.

It's no secret I absolutely adore femme men so this series is totally my thing and I think Tam has just become my new favourite Sassy Boy.


Tam is the groups choreographer and has a quite determination about him-he desperately wants the Sassy Boys to get back on track with regular work.He's sweet and a little bit shy and doesn't seem to realize how stunning he is.Due to a traumatic past he feels no sexual desire but things are about to change when he meets Driver.


Driver comes with his own baggage,never wanting to stay in one place for too long and face up to his past.He's house sitting for a friend in the same apartment block Tam lives in when they meet.When he first sees Tam he's blown away by what he thinks is a beautiful woman and isn't the least bit put off when he discovers Tam is a man.

Their relationship definitely isn't an easy one.Driver doesn't want commitment and starts off just wanting a bit of fun but he gradually begins to learn how vulnerable Tam is.Tam has his own insecurities to deal with due to his past.

I just adored Tam and although Driver annoyed me at times both men brought out the best in each other.
This one probably could be read as a standalone but I strongly advise reading the previous books,especially Fierce & Fabulous,to fully understand the connection the Sassy Boys have.


Highly Recommended...
