They don't play for the same team. Or do they? Jamie Canning has never been able to figure out how he lost his closest friend. Four years ago, his tattooed, wise-cracking, rule-breaking roommate cut him off without an explanation. So what if things got a little weird on the last night of hockey camp the summer they were eighteen? It was just a little drunken foolishness. Nobody died. Ryan Wesley's biggest regret is coaxing his very straight friend into a bet that pushed the boundaries of their relationship. Now, with their college teams set to face off at the national championship, he'll finally get a chance to apologize. But all it takes is one look at his longtime crush, and the ache is stronger than ever. Jamie has waited a long time for answers, but walks away with only more questions-can one night of sex ruin a friendship? If not, how about six more weeks of it? When Wesley turns up to coach alongside Jamie for one more hot summer at camp, Jamie has a few things to discover about his old friend...and a big one to learn about himself. Warning: contains sexual situations, skinny-dipping, shenanigans in an SUV and proof that coming out to your family on social media is a dicey proposition.

Throughout this incredible series you witness the two bring what they are best at - Bowen‘s obvious zany humor and Kennedy‘s heart. This book was just - I don‘t even know how to describe it but I wasn‘t expecting it to be as extraordinary as it was.

Wes and Jamie spent years being best friends at hockey camp but when Wes pays on a risky bet, he fears he changed their relationship forever. So he ghosts Jamie. Four years later, they‘re back at camp, this time as coaches, and they reconnect in ways neither of them expected.
I really enjoyed how multi-dimensional the characters and their relationship was. It was more than just spice… but there was plenty of that. 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

I‘ve read this book at least 3 times. Wes and Jamie are my favorite romance couple. Now I want to go visit them again.

Rounding out my bingo with Him. This book has been on my TBR since before I ever even picked up a MM book! I've seen this book talked about the most (and maybe that's why I put it off for so long). I'm glad I FINALLY grabbed this book, it was a friends-to-lovers breath of fresh air! Wouldn't quite give it 5 stars because there was a bit of a hiccup IMO. But solid 4⭐. Y'all know I'm a sucker for well written characters and I LOVED me some Wes! ⬇

chasjjlee I have already started the 2nd book, Us, and I'm looking forward to getting to read more of Wes & Jamie's story.

I had fun with my bingo for this month (not as much fun as last month, thank you to the Gallagher/Milkovich clan 😅).

Not sure if I'm doing bingo for December or not, haven't decided. What do you think @charityblee?

Wes and Jamie have been friends for years, then Wes decides to ghost Jamie and Jamie has no idea why. Wes is gay and has loved Jamie for years, and he knows that Jamie doesn't feel the same, or does he? 🤔. This was a really good book, this kept me hooked and it was an enjoyable read

Wes and Jaime become best friends during their teenage years while attending a summer hockey camp. During their last summer an incident happens that breaks up their friendship. Four years later they reconnect when both are playing in the college Frozen Four. I really liked this book. Not too cheesy, both characters had this self aware, humorous self deprecation going on. There was lots of sex, but it was sex with feelings and felt like it 👇🏼

Reggie an extension of their connection rather than the focus. Idk, it just didn‘t feel gratuitous. There was also a lot of acceptance in this book that blew my mind, so yeah, just, I liked this book. 😊 7y
Christy2318 YAY!! I‘m glad you liked Wesmie. 💓💓💓💓 7y
Reggie @Christy2318 lol, yeah, I could read about Wesmie all day long. Thanks again for the rec!!!! 7y

I was raving about how much I ship Wesmie & needed more Wesmie stories in sports romance book group on FB. Several people said I had to listen to the audio. Thanks to $1.99 Amazon audio add on, I did so immediately. It was so good, even better than reading the book, which I rarely say. 🏒🏒🏒🏒🏒 #romantsy

Reggie I love the warnings on the synopsis: includes skinny dipping. Lololol 7y
Christy2318 @Reggie LOL. That is funny. The skinny dipping is fairly tame compared to other parts of the book. 7y

🏒🥅🏒🥅🏒 #romantsy I loved Wes & Jamie when I read Good Boy about Jamie‘s sister & Wes‘ teammate last year. I knew I was going to 💓 this book. OMG. This maybe the best friends to lovers book I‘ve read. I‘ve powered right into Us & may have to revisit Good Boy & then read Stay. I‘m reading like it‘s my job.

Jas16 Loved these books. 7y

In the past I found it difficult to get into audio books but for the past month or so I‘ve enjoyed a few. They‘re great when I‘m in the car and even while at work: I get to plug in one ear phone and I love it. I have seriously been missing out on audio books.

This one required some thought. Literalism is not helpful (I touched a book about the Falklands War that I saw in Foyles the day after Argentina surrendered just to see if it was still hot from the press but even that was the same temperature as any other book) and I don't think I've ever stolen a book, although I've been tempted. So that leaves me with smut. Fortunately I have some of that. These two are favourites.

julesG Love your explanation. 7y
Centique Awesome explanation! 7y

SHOUT OUT TO ALL HOCKEY PLAYERS!!! 😍It was humorous, sexy, sweet and adorable story!!! It made me laughed out loud many times and the writing was just perfect. It didn't disappoint me at all. I love Ryan Wesley and Jamie Canning so much and their relationship/bromance is so cute! The skinny-dipping part was hilarious and when Wes got a tattoo of the coordinates of Lake Placid was priceless... and of course the purple skittles and slushies😄

I decided to read this after seeing all the good reviews and because it sounded similar to Elle Kennedy's Off-campus series, which I loved. Very happy I did....and the abs on that cover!!😍 #LitsyReadingChallenge #LRC17 #LitsyAtoZ #LetterH

I recently read and loved Good Boy (tagged 👇🏻) by Bowen + Kennedy; I wanted to know more about secondary characters Wes + Jamie, so I came here for their story.

I adore Wes and Jamie. They were friends first, but progressed to more while working together at a hockey summer camp. So much depth to their story! They seem like people I would want to know IRL-great characterization by the authors.

Y'all. Yes. Bowen and Kennedy did really well setting up and establishing these two characters from opposite coasts. Childhood friends with one sexually charged night and a lot of built up regret later, Wes and Jamie come face to face in the NCAA hockey playoffs. So, so good. The sequel was also great!

Jas16 Agreed! 8y

This was such a great New Adult book. Very mature characters and not a lot of drama, which I love. It's also very graphic, so be sure you're okay with that before going into this.
