I’m Your Guy is the perfect autumn romance, there’s hockey, there’s a whole lot of anguish, and there’s definitely romance galore!
I fell in love with both Tommaso and Carter as soon as I met them at the very beginning of I’m Your Guy. Tommaso because he was that grouchy, serious-looking hot hockey guy who just needed a little TLC. And Carter because even if his life had just been turned upside down, he was totally faking it till he was making it. And because their first look was sizzling.
Of course, Tommaso was so far into the closet that even he wasn’t 100% sure he liked guys. Apart from the fact that he felt some fierce feelings for Carter. And that just made I’m Your Guy even better in my opinion. And because Carter was able to transform Tom’s house into a safe space and an actual home, Tom was able to let go just a little bit.
There were several sightings of Newgate and Gavin, who live just across the street form Tommaso. Which led to both some fun scenes and some sad scenes. Of course, understanding where all of that anguish Tom had to live with came from took time, both for the readers and for the other characters.
Side characters I loved the most in I’m Your Guy was Gia – Tom’s sister, and also his mom. These two women are amazing, and I want to see more of them. If you’re looking for a hockey romance between two guys, with a lot of activism to make sure that LGBT+ athletes can have better lives, I’m Your Guy is the book you should pick up.
