REVIEW – Crying Shame by Rebel Shaw

BLURB

Addyson

Life just threw me a curveball. I have to find a new place to live, but it must be in-district, because my son has his heart set on riding the bus to his first day of kindergarten.

When my brother’s sexy best friend suggests we move in with him, I have to remind myself the offer was for his spare bedrooms… not his bed.

Graham was my childhood crush and being in proximity with him is bringing back all kinds of feelings I thought were long gone. Looks like this time, he’s experiencing them too.

The problem is, now I have a son to think of. We’ve been through enough, and I can’t risk his heart… or mine.

Graham

My gorgeous new roommate is off limits. Not only is she my best friend’s little sister, she’s a single mom looking for help… not a hookup.

From the moment she’s under my roof, sparks fly, and suddenly the girl I’ve known my whole life becomes the woman I want long term.

I know I should stay away. Addyson deserves better than sneaking around, but she’s afraid to give me more. Plus the little boy she’s trying to protect… he’s already stolen my heart.

To let her get away… let them get away, would be a crying shame.


It’s in this moment, I know I’ll never be the same.


ARC REVIEW

Addyson has crushed on Graham pretty much her entire life, but didn’t think that it would ever really go anywhere or that Graham would even remotely feel the same about her. There is chemistry between them and they have a strong connection thanks to the foundation of friendship that has just naturally formed throughout the years they have known each other.

Noah… How can you not just instantly fall in love with this little boy!? He is so sweet and adorable and just makes your heart melt. I loved the bond that him and Graham formed from the start of this book.

I enjoyed this story, but the pace of Addyson and Graham’s relationship just felt off to me. Things moved quickly between them, but at times it felt forced just because they were under the same roof.

If you’re looking for a brothers best friend, single mom, friends to lovers, forced proximity, age gap check this one out.
