Beck
By JJ Harper

Bar 28, Book 4

Finally, he’s found his perfect man. Will he be able to keep him?

Beck Thompson is out and proud. He has a job he loves and friends he considers his family. Okay, he doesn’t have a boyfriend, but chances are slim he’ll find the man who’ll accept all of him, his past and his tattoos. He’s happy. Sort of.

Until he sees the perfect man…with the same woman hanging on his arm every night. Damn.

Munro Sylvester has put every aspect of his life on hold to make his business a success. And he’s done it. But he’s never been true to himself.

One look at the gorgeous, colourful man changes everything. He knows he has to make the first move, but he may risk losing everything he’s worked so hard for.

Can Beck trust his heart that Munro is the one for him? Is Munro brave enough to come out and fight for their happily ever after?

Beck has a tattooed bartender who has never had any luck with love, a hard-working gym owner who’s never said “I’m gay” out loud, instant attraction, and well-meaning, meddling friends.

It is the fourth book in the BAR 28 series, a MM contemporary series. Each book can be read as a stand-alone, but you’ll enjoy them best by reading them in order. This series is based in the UK.

This was a wonderful story. What I enjoyed the most (I mean, aside from Munro and Beck and their chemistry) was the family the Bar 28 created. They had one another’s back and weren’t afraid to warn others about consequences if they hurt one of their own.

Beck is open. He is honest with who he is and isn’t afraid to be himself. He doesn’t hide. He comes with a past (who doesn’t, right?) and, for that reason, I feel he held himself back from love. Or, closed himself from it, not feeling he was worthy (he was/is).

We have Munro. A guy who is living a lie. He has created a life that looks perfect from the outside while on the inside, he is far from perfect, or honest. He is attracted to Beck, but it takes him a bit to finally acknowledge that to not only himself but others.

When these two finally “connect” you get one heck of a fun read.

I enjoyed this story from start to finish. Beck, Munro, and the supporting cast share a fabulous story. JJ Harper has created a great world with the Bar 28 family and friends. I think this story will be loved by any reader who is a fan oof MM romance, acceptance, and HEA/HFN.

Happy sigh. This books checks all of the boxes. Great chemistry and all the feels, a great plot and well-written story, an amazing cast of characters, two men who I not get enough of... I absolutely loved this book. Munro is hiding. Beck is open. And these two together are the perfect pairing. But it isn't only them, the whole cast at the bar add to everything. I don't know that it would be as good if it wasn't for the supporting cast and the atmosphere that they create.

I highly recommend this book. 5 stars. I could not put it down and ate it up. You need to read this one for yourself.

“Beck, wait up!” The voice from the office stopped me in my tracks in the corridor. I closed my eyes and calmed myself, then turned back and stepped inside. Jonas, my boss—and my ex-lover—looked me over and frowned. “Are you okay? You’ve seemed distracted lately.” Damn him for knowing me so well.

“Yeah, I’m good. I’ve had a lot on my mind lately, but it’s all sorted now.” Please don’t ask. Please don’t ask.

“Anything I can help with?” He was such a genuine guy, a great man. If only it could’ve worked out for us. He was a protector, a carer, and I didn’t need one of those. I wanted an equal.

“No, like I said, it’s all sorted. I’m good. I promise.” I plastered my brightest smile on my face and turned away, conscious of his eyes still on me.

“You know where I am if you need anything, Beck.” The kindness in his voice made my heart hurt, and I had to blink hard a couple of times to fight back the sting of tears.

“I know. Thank you, Jonas.” I walked to the breakroom, which was empty. I was always early, a habit I’d had my whole life, thanks to my parents. They’d always prided themselves on the fact that they were never late. It was a shame they didn’t pride themselves on loving their son.

It was going to be a busy night, which was exactly what I needed. A night to take my mind off the total fuck-up my life was right now. Not my love life. I hadn’t got that. No, it was my sex life that was fucked up. I must have a sign on my forehead that said ‘SUCKER’ flashing in pink neon lights. I was a sucker for a sad smile and a sob story,

which was why I ended up alone after my so-called date decided to call his ex and, with a gabbled apology, rushed off back to him. I’d spent all damn night trying to cheer him up so that I could get him back to my place, not for him to friend-zone me before he left.

The others were arriving as well. Max had Gus tucked under his arm, and Sawyer sported a hickey or two, courtesy of Devon. Leo was already working and would be leaving after his shift ended to go home to Bruno. Happy couples everywhere.

Fuck. My. Life.
