Release Blitz, Excerpt & Giveaway:
After Felix by Lily Morton
Close Proximity, Book 3
Sometimes the best love stories come in two parts.
When Felix met handsome journalist Max Travers, it was lust at first sight. It was just his luck that he then had to develop a terrible case of feelings and got his heart broken. However, two and a half years later, he’s over all of that. His job is going well, he has good friends, and he doesn’t lack for male company. Which, of course, is when Max has to come bursting back into his life.
Felix Jackson will always be the one who got away to Max. He’s spent their time apart regretting his actions and hoping for a second chance. When an accident lands him in Felix’s less than tender care, Max is determined to grab this opportunity. The only problem is that Felix is equally determined that he doesn’t.
From bestselling author, Lily Morton comes a story of missed opportunities, second chances, and two very stubborn men. This is the third book in the Close Proximity series, but it can be read as a standalone.

My Rating - 5+ Stars!
After Felix, is a phenomenal read. The third book in Lily Morton's Close Proximity series, it's easily read as a standalone, but the characters show up in the previous books.
Honestly, it's hard to review this one in a way that will do it justice. Trust me, it's an absolutely spellbinding story that will fill your heart with joy and then crush it next. And you will be grateful for every second of it all. Of course, it helps that it's loaded with humor in the form of snark and banter, thank god, to balance the heaviness a little.
This is an extraordinary story that takes the reader on one hell of an emotional rollercoaster.
I was gripped at the start, and couldn't put this book down. The men and the character growth they experience is a spectacular story.
There is some hot sex, some great humor, and plenty of laughs. Felix and Max are two men who arrange a sex without commitment arrangement. As hot as those scenes are, it's the feelings that evolve that had me hooked.
Felix is a man who's opposed to love. He doesn't believe in it, feeling it makes a man weak.
Thus, this is a wonderful read as changes his tune. The confidence of these men is hysterical, and there are some interesting twists and turns, as they learn more about one another.
Ultimately, this is a riveting journey of two men who are perfect for one another. They each fall in love, but they each fight doing so and struggle with being emotional available at the same time. Told in two parts, the author gifts the reader with the build up of the initial relationship. And, omg, the feels. Then the author fast forwards to their reunion and second chance. Again, omg, the feels.
Everything about this book is freaking amazing. The writing is as good as it gets, with two extremely multi-layered characters and their hard fought journey to get to the same place emotionally. I love it all.
After Felix is a must read the next time you're in the mood for a gut wrenching read. The ending is happy, but the journey is heart-wrenching. This Lily Morton book will take you through the wringer, but it's well worth the pain to get to the happy feelings at the end. It's an enthralling read that will have you needing to finish in one sitting, so set some time aside for this one.
