Synopsis

Unrequited love hurts like hell
Levi Brown has loved Noah White since he was a teenager, but Noah isn’t looking for a relationship. Every time Levi sees him, his heart aches for what it cannot have. Because dear Lord, he wants Noah, in his life, in his bed.
Especially in his bed. The only reason Levi is still a virgin is because he was waiting for Noah. Except Noah doesn’t want him. Maybe it’s time for Levi to finally accept the situation and move on.

Something stirs for the first time
Noah White doesn’t find people unattractive – he just doesn’t want to jump into bed with any of them. He and Levi have been like brothers most of their lives, and when shocking news rocks Levi’s world, Noah is there for him. When their relationship intensifies, Noah is exhilarated and excited – and confused. It’s kind of fitting that the first person he finds himself wanting is his best friend, but not if Levi doesn’t want him that way.

How long before Levi and Noah see what’s right under their noses?
Maybe it’s time for an intervention…

A sweet, slow-burn story!

I have been looking forward to Levi’s story so much and K.C. Wells did a fantastic job giving him and Noah their HEA. I’ve loved every book in this series but this one is really special. If you haven’t already read the other books in this series, I think you need to read at least the first one before you read Levi’s Love so that you can get a feel for the special group of friends that make up the Maine Men. While most of the stories do standalone very well, this is the final one in the series so having at least some background will give you a better experience reading this book.

We know that Levi has been pining for Noah for years. They are great friends but Levi wants more than that but he’s also afraid it will ruin their friendship if he tells Noah how he feels. Once Noah finally realizes that he loves Levi he becomes afraid to tell him for the same reason Levi has. This is definitely a slow-burn romance so don’t expect a lot of explicit scenes – that just wouldn’t be right for these two. What we do get is a slow and sweet discovery of their romantic feelings for each other.

While this story is about Levi and Noah finally discovering their mutual love for each other, it’s also about the family that this group of 8 guys created back in high school.

Grammy has been a significant figure in nearly all of the books but she really takes center stage in this one. I won’t do spoilers but I will say that there were a lot of hints along the way so when the thing happened it really wasn’t a big surprise. But before that thing, there was a major surprise that knocked both Grammy and Levi for a loop and I sure didn’t see it coming. Levi didn’t take the surprise very well and that led into stuff I can’t write about because it would be too spoiler-y.

While I am really sad to see this series end, I was also happy to learn that we probably haven’t heard the last of the Maine Men as K.C. has a new series coming that is also set in Maine and I’m very happy about that!
