Benjamin Bell is a wealthy and handsome New Yorker, who has everything a man could want in his life. He graduated from a prestigious college, lives in a stylish penthouse with his beautiful girlfriend, has a well paying job as an architect and works with his best friend. Except he’s miserable, which explains how he ends up in Las Vegas for a short weekend vacation. It doesn’t explain why he wakes next to a gorgeous blue-eyed man, who he remembers only through an alcohol-induced fog.
When his little Vegas indiscretion follows him back home, Ben learns that not only did he have sex with cute Mason Hadley, multiple times, but he married him. And Mason has the legally binding marriage license to prove it. Now Ben needs to figure out how Mason fits into his life and having him staying in the guest room isn’t working. Then there’s the little matter of his girlfriend/fiancé. What’s Ben going to do when she finds out that Mason isn’t his brother, but his lawfully wedded husband? In Ben’s case what happened in Vegas definitely didn’t stay in Vegas.
Unholy Matrimony is a fun, cute and lighthearted look at what happens when Ben’s normally staid inhibitions drop and he cuts loose for the first time in his life. The authors did a nice job expressing the swirling emotions of these men and the story is much more romantic than it is erotic, but that doesn’t stop Ben and Mason from having frequent bouts of sizzling hot sex. They are so attracted to each other that the room nearly hums with arousal whenever they’re together.
I loved the bantering dialogue and plenty of places scattered throughout the story deserved a chuckle or two. The story’s pace is smooth, the premise unusual and original and the characters interesting and well-integrated. The descriptions of Ben waking in bed with Mason and those immediately after, were vividly described, giving a good understanding of Ben’s uncertainty, embarrassment and panic. Once I’d read these scenes, I knew I was in for a rollercoaster ride of fun, frivolity and mishap.
This is the first I’ve read by these authors, and it won’t be the last.
