Troy and Larson did not have the most romantic of meetings, if anything they hated each other in the beginning. During Black Balled there were times we wondered if they would end up together, and we breathe a sigh of relief when it finally happens. If you think their story is any easier or over, think again.
In Hard Edit, they are back and while they love each other and are together, they have their moments. After reviewing and grumbling about Indie authors, Troy has decided to finally self-publish his own manuscript—something he was always loathe to do before Larson came into the picture. No longer looking down on the Indie world, Troy/Babu is now one of them, except now he has to figure out how everything works and keep his man happy. There will be signings, deals, family, his relationship with Larson, and so much more to contend with. Larson is happy for his man, but he is also a little jealous. What is going to happen to them?
Okay, this is what I’m going to say about this book. You have to be able to have a sense of humor to read it. As you know, I’m an indie author and part of this blog, and these books make light of a lot of things that happen in the Indie world, though, not in a bad way. I laughed about it all and kept nodding my head. I know these books aren’t for everyone, and that’s ok, but if you don’t mind the comedic way the authors portray self-publishing (they are Indies themselves and know this world), then I say give it a chance. Hard Edit is well written and the characters are great. I fell in love with them both, and wished I could use the frying pan on Troy a time or two. The supporting characters add depth to the story as well as comedic relief. There were a couple of times where I thought the story dragged, but it didn’t happen too often and quickly picked back up. 4.5 stars and I recommend you one click today.
