The Gift (Love In O'Leary #2)


Another author to obsess over = Another series to binge read. This time with May Archer and her Love In O'Leary series. The second book in this series is titled "The Gift"

["Daniel
I suck at relationships and don’t trust anyone, but there are reasons for that. For one thing, every person I’ve ever cared about has let me down. The only recent exception: O’Leary’s town veterinarian...my new best friend.

I came to O’Leary for a fresh start. To pare things down to essentials. To forget about the failures in my past. The last thing I need is complications, and most definitely
Not.
A.
Boyfriend.

Julian
I’ve lived in O’Leary my entire life and learned to fly under the radar a long time ago. I do what’s expected, say what’s expected, and keep to myself as much as possible. It’s a hell of a lot simpler spending my time working with animals than trying to interact with actual people. The one unlikely exception: the gorgeous guy who moved to a cabin just outside of town and somehow became my best friend.

But friendships are complicated, and one morning I find myself accidentally telling the whole town the biggest lie of my life. Which is how Daniel Michaelson, my very straight, very hot best friend becomes my fake boyfriend, even though he’s most definitely
Not.
My.
Lover."]

Julian and Daniel are the couple I distinctly remember from the prologue to the Love In O'Leary series. I remember thinking, well, fuck, they aren't subtle at all. This will be fun. And then the straight up confession about their...circumstances/situation/relationship in Book 1? And THEN learning that the confession was fake?! Yeah, there's no staying away from this couple.

And the fact that they CONSTANTLY take care of sick/injured animals together? That Daniel brings Julian wild animals to protect? I mean like, talk about awwwww.

At least these idiots figured out that they needed to communicate (almost too late, but at least they talked).
