WADE

I was Born to be Different.

My parents and sister did their best to change me but I needed to be true to myself. I wasn’t wrong, I was different. This was what my first lover taught me.

When he was taken from me, I spent eleven years on my own.

Sure, I had casual relationships but I thought I would never fall in love again.

Then, Rafe came into my life. Well, not really, he’d actually been in it for a long time. We just hadn’t noticed each other in that way.

We quickly fell into a passionate relationship and everything appeared to be great. Unfortunately past lovers couldn’t let go and our lives could have crumbled around us.

With the love of each other, family and friends, we determine to conquer adversity.


RAFE

I have been in a long term relationship with a man I have found out is betraying me. My heart has been broken.

I have known Wade for many years but when his own relationship breaks down, around the same time as mine, we are drawn to each other.

It doesn’t take long for me to realize, we were always meant to be.

Wade is everything George wasn’t. Attentive, gentle and man can he love.

Will our pasts come back to tear us apart?

Or together, will we not only make it through, but become even stronger?

REVIEW
My Rating - 5 Stars!

Born To Be Different is a fantastic Friends-to-Lovers romance by AL Simpson.

I enjoyed this story from the get-go, as I had already fallen for Wade in Book 1, Born To Sin. I am thrilled to get to read his story. I'll admit that I was shocked that he ends up with Rafe, as I assumed he'd be with Mason. Definitely a fun curveball.

Wade's backstory, being taken in by his ex when he was young, is just beautiful. I questioned it at first, as anyone would, but the love that developed between them is all-consuming. I was sad when he his first ex died, and am thrilled to see him find love again.

Upon meeting Rafe, I wasn't expecting him to end up with Wade, but I am thrilled that he did. I thought they would have just a brief fling, but thankfully I was wrong. Rafe and Wade have been friends for years, and them falling in love is perfect for them. Their romance is just a delight that will leave you feeling good.

As for the crazy, recent exes, so sad. They certainly don't go gently into the night. These parts were definitely not an easy read.

Once again, AL Simpson treats up to a fantastic romance, full of some light action, some suspense and our favorite characters from Born To Sin. I highly recommend this series to anyone who likes series with both MF and MM romances. If you're strickly a MM fan, be sure to at least check out this one and Book 4, Born To Be Wild!
