Franklin U (FU) is back, babies!!! :D I fucking looooved this series a year and a half ago when the first installment came out, and now, there's a second installment. Excuse me while I just fangirl for a bit. The second novel is "A Stealthy Situation," and its by Saxon James.
["HARRISON
My life’s goal? Make plants fun!
I’m gonna be fighting for flora when I’m older and it all starts with auditing stats so I can level up for my masters, and lucky for me, the intriguing guy in my class is a math whizz.
He’s standoffish at first, but after a class where I bet my sitcoms can make him laugh, one bet leads to another and we’re hanging out all the time. Even though I know he’s interested in me, we’re easy friends, until I start to think I might be a little interested in him, too.
The only problem? He seems like a totally different guy in class to when we hang out. I brush it off as him trying to concentrate, but then I spot something I can’t explain away.
A scar. On his palm.
One I’m positive Benny has never had before.
BENNY
Since we were little, my twin brother and I have always switched things up–literally. It started as funsies, and now we’re college juniors and still taking each other’s classes. I suck at Math, he sucks at English, and we both have a rule not to make friends in class as the other person. Our system is perfect.
Only Emmett has the audacity to get sick right before stats and I have to actually show up for my own class–where I meet my future husband.
Harrison is smart, weirdly into plants, and we instantly hit it off like old friends.
Only of course the gorgeous mountain of a nerd is straight.
Just when I’m telling myself to let my dreams of matching rings go, our text messages become constant, flirtier, deeper than I’ve had with any other guy before. My butterflies have butterflies every time we catch up.
And then I get a text from Emmett: I’m so sorry. I think I messed up."]
"But it works for us. Total opposites. All cinnamon and snark."
To be clear, the one with plant babies is the cinnamon roll (Harrison), and the one "allergic to feelings" is the snark (Benny). Together, they're fucking perfect, all the chemistry and care, all the sweetness and steam. They're a team. They had to work through some stuff (some really hard shit, actually), but all of it made them stronger than they were before (and more schmoopy).
Like the last "season" of this series, I loooove how these authors interconnect each couple and each timeline (and the previous couples/timelines). It's a seemingly easy detail to add, but it really makes the books that much more magical.
