Dirty Forty

[3.5] A sweet best friends to lovers story with minimal-to-no angst. During a drunk 21st birthday celebration, Dominic and Zach promise to marry each other if they both found themselves single at 40. Skip to Dominic's 39th birthday, and he impulsively announces that they're engaged at his parent's house for dinner in an attempt to appease them (but of course it gets them even more excited and invested in their relationship lol).

The story captured my attention from the start, and I loved seeing how comfortable the two of them were together. The latter half of the book did feel a bit repetitive though. While I could understand Zach's insecurity since Dominic had always identified as straight, I didn't think it was necessary to explicitly mention his doubts so often. But regardless, I loved how patient Dominic was, and their chemistry was both steamy and wholesome.
