Good Boy (The Boys of Apartment 13 #3)

Here's "Good Boy," the third book in Brianna Flores's The Boys of Apartment 13 series. 

["Good boy Baby Holbrook is unlucky in love...

Baby
I'm a stickler for rules, and for good reason. They keep life simple. Predictable. Safe. My roommates might not agree, but I think they're a necessity. Which is exactly why crushing on the one straight guy in the apartment is a terrible idea.
Logan Matthews is a rule breaker. He's shirtless at inappropriate times, allergic to knocking, and somehow convinced that pretending to be my boyfriend is no big deal. But for me, it most definitely is. Between all the hand-holding and praise, I'm finding it harder and harder to remember this is fake. The kisses feel real, the touches are lingering, and I'm forgetting what it was like to not have this beautiful boy's attention all on me.
There's only one way this ends, but if there's one thing I'm certain of, it's that Logan Matthews is worth the heartache.

Logan
I'm a firm believer that there are some rules that are meant to be broken. My favorite roommate might not agree, but I'm pretty sure I can change his mind.
Baby thinks I can't handle being his fake boyfriend just because I'm straight. He doesn't understand how much I already like being near him. I don't spend my nights watching eighties movies because I like them. I do it because it's the only time he lets his guard down. What started out as a favor he didn't ask for has become the realest thing in my life. I just hope I can convince him I'm worth the risk.
It may be easier said than done, but if there's one thing I know, it's that Baby Holbrook is worth the fight."]

These two gave me so much anxiety. Okay, so most of the anxiety was due to Baby, but he was (okay not entirely) justifiable. His past experiences mixed with his greatest fears and his unchecked anxiety made him continuously push Logan away. 

Logan...tried his best. He wanted to push Baby, but he knew he couldn't push Baby too far, too fast. And not to blame aaallllll of the miscommunication on him, but Logan could have, arguably, told Baby how he felt and how those feelings had changed slash had been there all along.

Meanwhile, all of the other boys were just like "whelp, we've been there; they'll figure it out." Like, awesome. Thanks. 

But also, Logan being jealous of a banana, to the point of almost throwing the bundle of bananas away, was hilarious. 

Trigger Warnings: mentions of homophobia (both internal and external), thoughts and behaviors that may be attributed to body and gender dysphoria, past bullying, and more.
