Destructive Relations (Destined to Fail #1)


Another day, another deviation to my reading plans. ANYway. This is Hayden Hall's "Destructive Relations," the first book in her Destined to Fail series.

["I’ve been the good son all my life. He’s been the troublemaker.

Parrish Turner has always been my ultimate fantasy. He was my gay awakening, my sweetest torture, and my forbidden fruit ever since my father remarried and merged our families.

And he never even noticed me. I was nothing more but an annoyance. The most I got from him was a growl or a bark. And it was enough to make me wild with desire. Until he left.

Now, five years after I’d last seen him, we’re back in the same house. Even worse, we’re in tight quarters, forced to share the same bed. Luckily, it's only for a couple of weeks.

But that is long enough for my will to cave in. Especially now that I’ve got nothing else to lose and Parrish is starting to tease me in ways I can’t even interpret. Either he's trying to bully me for fun, or he's flirting. With him, the two are never far apart.

He blurs the line between right and wrong. And I can’t resist the temptation that could only ever end in the destruction of whatever family we have left."]

If you want something that will make you sob (but has a happily ever after), this is your book. 

Parrish is a hot mess, but for what seems like the first time, so is Levi. It’s like that quote from “Carry On” where Baz tells Simon that he loves that Simon is a “fucking tragedy, you literally couldn’t be a bigger mess” and his reasoning is that they now match. Like that. 

They resisted for so long, for okay reasons, but in the end, they found their happily ever after.

100% recommend.
