Better Than Good by Lane Hayes

Matt tags along with his gay roommate to a dance club, meets Aaron, and can't deny the attraction between them. Better Than Good by Lane Hayes, available from Dreamspinner Press.



Matt Sullivan understands labels: law student, athlete, heterosexual. He has goals: graduate and begin his career in law. One fateful night, Matt tags along with his gay roommate to a dance club and everything changes. Matt finds himself attracted to the most beautiful man he's ever seen. All labels go flying out the window.

Aaron Mendez doesn't believe in labels, and he’s leery of straight curious men. He makes it clear that he’ll hide his fabulous light for no one. While Aaron can't deny the attraction between him and Matt, he is reluctant to start anything with someone who is still dealing with what this new label means—especially when that someone has a girlfriend.

I read this yesterday and it was one of the best books I've read in a really long time. Aaron made me laugh and broke my heart. And I loved that Matt went after him regardless of what people may think. Execellent story!

I adored this story - couldn't put it down. Aaron stole the show, but I loved Matt's acceptance.

What rating would you give the book?

awesome book as i said in my review

i loved this book. i couldn't stop. I started reading it at 2am and finally forced myself to 'nap' once I got halfway through the novel. And I brought my kindle to work and snuck in a chapter here or there in the bathroom, during a 'break'... it was a tad obsessive, but SO worth it.

It was MARVELOUS!! I was just so happy. How great is it when you read a book and you're just so freakin happy throughout most of it. I get Matt. I loved his honesty. I 'felt' him. I understood when he had his first smexing with Aaron, and how he just felt so awed that it could be like that. I understood each and every time he looked at Aaron and found him beautiful in all the things he did. I could feel his frustration when Aaron wouldn't hear him out. We all deserve one f up, you know? But I also understood Aaron's need to protect himself. No one wants to be an experiment.

Anyway, I loved it. I did. I want more of your stuff Lane!!!!
