Blurb
Bran Foxwell has crushed on Joel Fisher from afar for years, and now that Joel is happily in love with another guy, Bran has lost his chance. But when uber-sexy Keenan Pratt stumbles over an upset Bran, it’s the perfect opportunity for a no-strings hookup. Except sex with Keenan is hotter and more intense than Bran ever imagined, and despite their no-strings agreement, both men agree to an actual date.
As the middle triplet, Keenan Pratt is devoted to his brothers and they’ve spent the last ten years supporting and protecting each other. When Keenan has the chance to screw around with his own long-time crush Bran, it’s an itch he can’t wait to scratch. But there’s chemistry there neither of them expects and, slowly but surely, what should have been a single hookup turns into more.
But when their family is targeted, the Pratt brothers circle the wagons hard, and Keenan pulls away from Bran exactly when he should be leaning on the other man. Bran wants to be there for Keenan, but old habits run deep and if Keenan can’t learn to trust, he risks losing the best relationship he’s ever had.

Review
My Rating - 4 Stars!
Damn! AM Arthur's Burning For You is a fun romance that starts with a super hot hookup.
After a hook up with his long time crush, Keenan's confused and frustrated that Bran doesn't want more. Their journey from friends to lovers isn't without it's complications, but most of it is from outside sources, as opposed to relationship drama.
I enjoy the romance in this one, but am not a big fan of all the food talk. It's well done, just not something I care to read. That said, the food talk is important, as Keenan and Bran bond over food and their careers. As a result, this is a slow burn romance that takes some time to build the connection.
Their story includes some horrific homophobia and bigotry, as well as transphobia. Jayden's a bi-trans man who's a secondary character. The transphobia that he faces is sad and poignant. Jayden deserves a happy ending which I hope we get soon.
Written in dual pov, we get good insight into both characters and their feelings. Though a second book in a series, it can easily be read as a standalone.
Burning For You is a beautiful romance, centering around a theme of family, love, and support. AM Arthur's food truck series, Neighborhood Shindig, is an entertaining and fun series with the promise of many book stories to come.
