5 Star Review: Stay A Little Longer (A Fate Texas Novella) by Jess Bryant



Where do you go when there's no place to hide?

Country music superstar, Trent Thorne is on the run. The secret he's kept hidden from the world is no longer a secret at all. He trusted the wrong person, a man he'd stupidly thought he was in love with, and instead of a happily ever after all he'd gotten was outted. Unwilling to sit around and watch his private life get plastered all over the news, Trent hits the road and somehow ends up in his best friend Lemon's small hometown of Fate, Texas.

He only intends to crash there for one night but in Fate, one night can change everything.

Lance Nichols knows a thing or two about hiding. He's so deep in the closet he can't even see daylight. The former womanizer finally admitted the truth to himself a few years ago but he never thought he'd be able to say the words out loud, not to his family, not to his friends, and certainly not to his secret celebrity crush when the guy stumbles awkwardly into his life.

But the words come easily with Trent. Everything comes easily with him. Talking, touching and even opening up about all the things he’s never told a soul.

Fate brought these two together, but will it also tear them apart? One newly outed man refuses to go back in the closet. The other can’t imagine coming out of his.

The real world is closing in on their little bubble but before it does, can they figure out how to coexist and be a part of each other’s lives? Can Lance stop hiding and take a chance on love? And what happens if Trent decides to stay a little longer… maybe even forever?









My Review

I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review.

When I read Call Me, Irresistible and met Trent, I immediately thought, "Oh my god! I love him. He better get his own story!" While he didn't make a great first impression, but he had his reasons. And now the thing he feared the most, has happened.

Trent made the bold move of coming out to his best friend and he definitely did not expect to become country music’s newest outcast. Now, with reporters on his heels, he needs to get out of Nashville. Luckily for him, Lemon (FYI - we get some amazing Lemon and Shane moments that had me laughing out loud more than once. I just love those two!) has just the place for him to lay low for a little bite and Trent takes her up on the offer. What follows is not only a case of mistaken trailer identity (yes, that'a thing!), but a night that will change Trent's life forever.

When Trent arrived in town and fell into bed, he never thought that he would get woken up in the middle of the night by a hot cop. A hot cop who happens to own the trailer Trent is currently sleeping in. Oops! Talk about a meet cute! I can just imagine these two telling their children this story some day. Actually I really want to read that....GET ON IT JESS!  ;-)



Holy crap. Lance and Trent go from complete strangers to hot as hell lovers in no time flat. Their chemistry was off the charts hot and there were a few times where I thought I would need a cold shower! Over the course of only a few days these two get to know each other and fall in love. But with Trent just coming out and Lance still in the closet, of course there some bumps along the way. But the bumps result into some really sweet moments that made me fall in love with this book. My only complaint was that I wanted MORE of them.
