Okay, I'm going to preface this review by saying that this book feels similar in a lot of ways to The Jock and The Quarterback, both of which I really loved.

I mean, talk about a dream story, am I right? We get a slow burn, incredibly sweet, uber-romantic sexuality discovery story with older MCs. I've been reading a LOT of books by Tal Bauer recently, and You & Me has to be one of my favorites. Come for the epic love, stay for the forever feels. You & Me is a single dads, friends-to-lovers, bi awakening MM romance, full of dads and their exasperating teenage sons, high school sports shenanigans, and #FoundFamily. It's pointless to even imagine we could be something together. Of course, a guy like Landon could never fall for someone like me. What would he think if he knew I craved his best friend's dad? I'm playing with fire, but I can't turn off these feelings Landon has unlocked inside of me. Falling for him puts each fragile moment I've rebuilt with my son at risk. Landon draws me in without even trying, and the harder I fight this, the deeper I fall.Ĭrushing on my son's best friend's father must be my biggest parenting failure ever, but I can't get enough of Landon.

I've never been attracted to men in my life… until him. My son is opening up, too, little by little. Now I'm spending all my free time with the team-and with Landon-and the more we're together, the deeper our friendship grows. Volunteering might give him and me a chance to rebuild what's broken between us. And though I know nothing about football, Landon convinces me to volunteer to be closer to my son. Landon's son and mine are best friends and-of course-Landon is the football Team Dad. He's barely speaking to me, and a year after my wife died, we're both clinging to the wreckage of our family. I'm not cool, or confident, and my relationship with my son couldn't be worse. He’s such a Super Dad, it's almost sickening. He and his son-the high school's all-star quarterback-have the perfect father-son relationship. Landon Larsen is the envy of all the dads in Last Waters, Texas. A single dads, friends-to-lovers, bi awakening MM Romance.
