Trust the Focus

Okay, so. Megan is a super lovely person, and I really enjoyed Make it Count, which was released last year, so when I heard she was writing a m/m NA, I basically freaked out with uncontained excitement.

Super quick note: this is, indeed NA (not YA), so everything you would expect from NA is here. I, obviously, did not have a problem with it, but I figure it's good to mention because sometimes people get confused when I say NA. It is not the same as YA. Okay.

As for Trust the Focus! Generally, when I read Erickson's romances, I expect sweet and sexy NA. This was exactly that. Justin and Landry go on a road trip to honor Justin's dad with no plans of making anything happen romantically between them (Justin isn't even openly gay, so there doesn't at first even seem to be a possibility of anything happening between them), but the more time they spend together, the more they begin to realize ignoring their feelings for each other isn't going to work for much longer.

Trust the Focus had me smiling, awww-ing, laughing, internally raging and getting teary-eyed—which is to say, making me feel all the things a good romance should. I absolutely loved Justin and Landry's chemistry, and while Justin frustrated me (as any good flawed romance hero should), I was rooting for them from the first page and loved seeing their relationship pull together.

If you're looking for some sweet and fun diverse NA, I absolutely recommend Trust the Focus. I've already added the next in the series, Focus on Me, to my TBR shelf, and I can't wait to continue to diversify my collection of NA novels!
