Heartthrob: A Low Angst Gay Romance (Honeywood Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.0 out of 5 stars 82 ratings

One chance meeting. Two curious college boys. Three weeks to follow their hearts.

Clark

Meeting Leo was a happy accident. Now I can’t get him off my mind. Having feelings for a guy is new, and I’m in way over my head. My future’s been decided since I was in diapers, and falling for a boy in college wasn’t in my family’s master plan.

But from our first curious kiss, everything about Leo feels right. Before I know it, I’m dying for our friendship to become something more before the semester ends.

Screw the plan. I’m not going the rest of my life without him.


Leo

So much for not crushing on a straight boy. Only Clark’s not so straight, and it’s way more than a crush.

It’s easy to lose myself in his kiss and hard to forget the way he makes me feel. To the rest of Honeywood, Clark is the untouchable campus king of Royal U. To me, he’s the boy who comes apart when we touch, the boy who wants me to put him back together, and the boy who stole my heart when I wasn’t looking.

Clark is the muse who pulls poetry out of me.

Can he also be the boy who teaches me what it’s like to fall in love?

Heartthrob is a new adult low angst gay romance. Visit Royal U and the small town of Honeywood for a dreamy, steamy slice of life MM romance featuring explosive first times, fierce friendships, and curious college boys thinking with their bodies.

    This is perhaps the most beautifully written book I have read in years…..YEARS! The story was good….bi awakening, first love, friendship. The writing is what really made me swoon. I will be reading more of this author.

    This is an ooey-gooey, tooth-achingly sweet love story that I gobbled up. I’m a little worried I’m putting *too much* thought into it and using my queer studies analytical brain, instead of my “let’s read romance!” brain, but nonetheless, here it goes.

    This book is pure queer love and joy. One of the MCs, Clark, is a photographer who conceptualizes an exhibition centered on that subject, and Heartthrob is the novel version of it: a bunch of young queer guys finding themselves, exploring their sexualities, flaunting their queerness loudly and gleefully in public. It’s a love letter to baby gays and bis and pans. And also senior gays and bis and pans, who are exhausted by watching the world tell us that we’re not deserving of love (or rights).

    There’s no angst, like the blurb says, even in places where ordinarily there might be (conflict with parents, worries about coming out, anxieties over long distance relationship stuff, etc.). That lack of angst might not be for everyone, especially because it means the plot is focused on insta-love and sex and horny teenage boys being horny teenage boys, but for me, it was a fun sexy escape into a world where Florida doesn’t exist. You know? And sometimes we just really really need to believe for a moment that Florida. Doesn’t. Exist. (I do mean Florida in a figurative, abstract sense, as my gay brother lives in Florida, and homo- and transphobic bigotry is not limited to the panhandle state.)

    I can already tell Honeywood is going to be a place of queer love and lust and comfort. I’m here for it. Give me super hot circle jerks, and steamy public sex in a library, and risqué crossing-the-line PDA, and over-the-top shmoopy men loving men.

    In some ways, I loved this book. Clark and Leo are sweet and quickly fall head over heels in love with each other.
    That made me smile.
    However, in several areas this book was REALLY hard to follow. In the many scenes, with only words, I have to be able to picture the action in my head as it happens. Instead, it was like the author was channeling Leo and poetically describing how the scene felt, with only sparse attention paid to how the action would play out. It was frustrating and confusing and made for some difficult reading.
    It also felt like the relationship was mostly about sex, when the author could have stretched things out for them to get to know each other on a non-physical level as well. I’m also super confused about the timeline. Did they meet in February or April? And how would the semester end only 3 weeks later? So hard to follow!
    So…recommended, kinda?

    First in series (Honeywood). POC representation. Insta-love. Found family. Low angst. Dual POV. College students Leo and Clark meet briefly at a party and begin a tentative romance which blooms quickly. Days spent talking and touching ramp up the feelings between Leo the poetry writer and Clark the rich boy that wants to be a photographer to his parents dismay. This book is equal parts lyrical writing describing the main character’s feelings and steamy, young lust driven scenes when Leo and Clark interact. There is a group of supportive friends that hint at future relationships, and the secondary cast is both mature in their advice and yet very much college age in their actions. Both Leo and Clark are thoughtful and likable while risking their hearts to the immediate attraction that overwhelms them. Overall a dreamy read with sweet and caring characters and a spot on in character HEA. 4.5 rounded up

    This is one of the lowest angst romances I’ve ever read. It is all love and heart eyes and two people very much on the same page. I’m not sure why anyone thinks that Clark can’t express his feelings verbally because he seems to be nearly as poetic as Leo when he waxes on about his love for Leo. Leo and Clark are very sweet, with each other and with their friends. This is also a sort of insta-love story, with the only thing slowing the coming together of Leo and Clark down even a tiny bit is that Clark didn’t realize he was bisexual until Leo. But it really doesn’t slow them down, to be honest. Mostly this book is just two lovely guys, being lovely to and with each other and having a lot of sex. There are some fun scene of them with their friends as they try to either help Clark with pictures for his photography show or to help them talk through whatever minor speed bumps they encounter. I’m glad to see that Gage and River will get a book, and hopefully Simon and Finch will too.

    If you are looking for something happy, sweet, and sexy, this might just be the perfect book for you.

    The first paragraph led me to believe the book was going a certain way, but it was just because the supporting character was a horndog. The book is actually a very sweet, sappy falling in love for the first time feel-good book. I loved the way the MC's first interacted, and you could tell from the first that there was an instant attraction, even though Clark, who has identified as straight up to this point, does not realize it yet. Leo is a sweetheart and is careful to hide his feelings from Clark, but once they were both on the same page, magic happens.

    I really enjoyed this book. It was well written and you could just feel the MC's falling in love. It made me sigh and laugh. I am looking forward to the next book in this series.

    I wasn’t a huge fan of this book, maybe because it was YA, though I’ve read several and enjoyed them. I didn’t get invested in the characters and the storyline seemed so on the edge of boring. I didn’t finish this book.
