Sutphin Boulevard

So good. This book starts off with a... literal bang and develops from there. If you enjoy romances where friendship becomes something more, with some conflicts and bumps along the way, this is definitely a romance to pick up. It's also the first book in a series and it is delightful.

Other kudos points for #ownvoices author, diverse main characters, strong sense of place (ah, New York), and A+ steaminess.
