Always Him

Inevitable Series, Book 2

By: Cora Rose

Narrated by: Nick J. Russo, Iggy Toma

If there’s one thing I’ve learned this year it’s that life isn’t always fair.

Sometimes things happen that test our resilience and our strength. My life was changed forever one fateful night last year when I lost my leg in an accident. It’s affected my independence and my confidence. But there is one thing—one person—that hasn’t changed, hasn’t wavered when life gets hard.

Finn Ledger. He’s been my best friend since the moment we met in middle school. We’re grown now, with separate lives, but he still always manages to be there for me when I need him, even when circumstances try to wrench us apart. He always holds me when I need it and cares for me like no one else can. His affection for me feels like home, like safety…

But recently those innocent touches have been igniting something new inside of me. Something I can’t explain, something lustful and intense. Something that could change everything…

Always Him is an M/M friends-to-lovers college romance with heart, soul, lots of laughs, and, of course, cuddling.

Sweet sweet sweet.

So sweet and sexy. I love the longing. The obliviousness. The sweetness. Sweet sweet sweet. Worth the credit for sure.

Overall good, but

Overall i liked this story, a continuation from the first book. But a couple things were not as enjoyable: 1. The time shifts back and forth are a bit confusing 2. The shift in point of view between Landon and Finn in different chapters, together with time shifts made for a little bit of a disconnected story. 3. The whole Archer- antagonist thing was irritating. And I was waiting and waiting for confirmation about Archer. He came on strong in the coffee shop and at the party. It’s seems clear Finn is into him, constantly texting, coffee dates, sitting too close kissing and holding hands while Finn kept saying they were just friends. Finn was keeping their meetings a secret except for the mention that Archer was helping Finn plan a vacation for Landons birthday. At one point i thought Finn was going to try to bring Archer into his relationship with Finn making a throuple situation. At least that’s how it seemed things were going. I wasn’t convinced they are just friends and Finn isn’t the most open or honest person with sensitive topics. In any event, it wasn’t explained successfully. Did Finn stop seeing Archer after Landons accident for the sake of his relationship with Landon? Why was Finn with Archer the night of Landons accident? Sounds sketchy and it wasn’t resolved for me.

How blind can you be!!

Love them! They are funny and adorable! The amount of love they have for each other is beautiful!

Eager Landon

What can I say, Cora Rose knows how to write fun spicy reads low in angst. Til this day I still think about Whit.

I loved how eager and clingy Landon was haha. He has no filter and literally speaks his mind. Finn is the one to put up with him always so patient caring but in the sheets oh sooo dominant! I really loved this characters and the narrators were the cherry on top!

I enjoyed this book way more than I expected!

Really enjoyed this!

I really liked "Until Him", but I really loved "Always Him" I really felt for Finn, always loving his best friend...taking crumbs until finally Landon realized that it's always been Finn that he loved. Cora Rose was able to show us a healthy co-dependant relationship...is that realistic? Iggy and Nick are amazing performers..they've really brought this series to life. Rose is a wonderful writer, because of this series I found other titles by her that I've also enjoyed. My only complaint is that we only had snippets of Finn's thoughts and thus only snippets of Nick J. Russo.

4 stars - worthy of a repeat listen
