COVER DESIGN: Reese Dante

BLURB

Quinn Monahan and Grayson Page have been friends since high school. Despite their differences, they’ve been there for each other through thick and thin. Opening Last Call together, a bar tucked away in the small town of Heartsville, PA seemed a natural progression—even if it makes it harder to live with the secret longing they’ve always had for each other.

Hoping to score an easy buck and a place to sleep, unemployed circus roadie Emery Woods chooses Last Call to run a few bets and enjoy a decent beer before moving on. When he finds himself stranded, the unexpected kindness Quinn and Gray show him leads to temporary work and a couch to lay his head. Sensing unresolved history between Quinn and Gray, he squashes his immediate draw to the men, opting to avoid trouble. But as days turn into weeks, denying the attraction is easier said than done.

When the men finally give in to the simmering sexual tension, it quickly develops into more than a way to pass the lonely nights. And as they begin to lean on each other for emotional support, it becomes nearly impossible to think of one man without the other two. But while Quinn and Gray are afraid to cross the line of friendship between them, Emery fears once they do, he’ll quickly be cast aside. A real family is finally within their grasp, but unless the men can learn to trust each other, they just might miss their hearts’ last call home.

EXCERPT

“Hey. You don’t believe him, right? He doesn’t know the real you.” Gray wrapped his arms around me, pulling me close. Wordlessly I sought his mouth, needing his solid warmth. Electric sparks showered through me when he crushed our lips together, and I slid my hands through his hair, clutching the silky waves between my fingers.

Heat rose between us as he took my face between the palms of his hands and sucked hungrily at my tongue. I molded my body to his, my d*ck aching and hard. Our breaths mingled, and I licked at the scratchy, tender skin of Gray’s neck, drinking in the tang of his scent. So strong and warm and male.

A hand touched my back and Emery kissed my neck, then sucked my earlobe into his mouth. I could feel the push of his c*ck, and I became a trembling mass of sensation, each stroke ramping up my desire.

“The truck is still in the driveway, full of liquor.” Emery panted against my ear.

“F*ck the liquor.” Who could think when Emery’s lips trailed hot kisses down my neck?

“I’d rather f*ck you.”

Carra's Review

When I found out that Christina Lee and Felice Stevens had collaborated on Last Call, to say I was crazy excited to read it would be putting it mildly.  I’ll tell you right now, this book definitely lived up to my expectations and I hope this means we’ll see more in the future from the two of them together!  Their writing was so seamless, I couldn’t tell who wrote which parts.

I loved all three of these guys, each for separate reasons.  Quinn for his compassion and kindness, Gray for his perseverance and dominance, and Emery for his painful past and his need for both Quinn and Gray—coupled with his reluctance to fall for them.  I’ll admit, when their story first started out I was just as unsure as Emery was that things could work out given Quinn and Gray’s long personal history together.  And at the beginning, it felt to me like they were three individuals coming together, not a cohesive unit that worked as one.  

I really liked that their relationship built over time—no rushing, but actually really getting to know each other and growing closer slowly.  The intimacy builds slowly too, gradually becoming more and more intense as the story went on.  There’s no question of the chemistry they had together…Quinn and Emery, Emery and Gray, Gray and Quinn…and all three as one.  While I may have felt at the start that they were three individuals, by the end of the story I couldn’t imagine one without the other two.

Last Call was an amazing story, and was a 4.5-star read for me.  If you like slow building romances, and are a fan of M/M/M menage, this is definitely one you won’t want to miss. This book is meant strictly for readers 18+ for adult language and explicit sexual content.

Felice Stevens has always been a romantic at heart. While life is tough, she believes there is a happy ending for everyone. She started reading traditional historical romances as a teenager, then life and law school got in the way. It wasn't until she picked up a copy of Bertrice Small and became swept away to Queen Elizabeth's court that her interest in romance novels was renewed.

But somewhere along the way, her reading shifted to stories of men falling in love. Once she picked up her first gay romance, she became so enamored of the character-driven stories and the overwhelming emotion there was no turning back.

Felice lives in New York City with her husband and two children. Her day begins with a lot of caffeine and ends with a glass or two of red wine. Although she practices law, she daydreams of a time when she can sit by a beach and write beautiful stories of men falling in love. Although there is bound to be some angst along the way, a Happily Ever After is always guaranteed.
