About this book
Mash Cassidy, smooth-talking werewolf and notorious ladies' man, has been running from his responsibilities and his pack for fifteen years. But with Harvest Fest only weeks away, Alpha's ordering him to return home, and she won't take no for an answer. It's time for him to grow up and mate with a nice werewolf girl. In fact, Alpha already has one in mind.
But Mash wasn't built for settling down, and in a desperate move to keep Alpha off his back, he drags his wolf shifter best friend Cian into another of his harebrained schemes: pretend to be a werewolf and pose as his fake-mate for two whole months.
What could go wrong? They're just friends, and Mash definitely hasn't been developing unusual feelings for him.
Cian Barker, hipster wolf shifter and tech whiz, has been in love with his best friend since the day they met at uni. It doesn't matter that Mash is straight and completely unobtainable; Cian is just happy to have him in his life.
But when Mash asks him to be his fake-mate during the family's Harvest Fest celebration, Cian might have reached his limits with how far he'll go for Mash, at least until he's faced with his favourite pair of puppy-dog eyes. The ones he just can't seem to resist.
It'll be fine. Cian can pretend—he's been pretending for their entire friendship. Besides, it's not like Mash will ever love him back.
The Good Boys Club is an MM best-friends-to-lovers paranormal romance, and the second in the Mythical Mishaps series of interconnected standalones. Expect the usual silliness, slow burn, lots of pining, plenty of scent marking, and a ton of praise for the bestest boy in the Eight and a Half Kingdoms.

\"I was obsessed with him. But I could only stand beside him and watch as he threw himself at everyone but me.\" \"Well, honestly, from the moment I met you, I knew there was something different about you. I couldn't put my finger on what, but you smelled...you smelled somehow like...mine.\" This was such a sweet, hilarious, all good feel book. This was a slow burn with some good kinks 🔥🔥. I loved the banter and interactions between all characters in this book omg. I was laughing so hard...

This is an adorable, low(ish)-angst, super funny book about two loveable fools in love. I don’t know why I haven’t read Jenna Croft before (although it looks like I have - I absolutely loved Rookie Recovery) but Croft is a new favorite in MM for me now. Croft makes her own rules in this PNR book (book 2 in a series) and they all work. I laughed, I squirmed, I gasped. It’s all so damn cute and fun. Highly recommended if you like paranormal romance, spice and things that make you say “oh that’s...

Her books are just so, so funny. I found myself highlighting mote passages in this book than I ever have in the past. The longing and silliness and just straight up laughing out loud while reading this made me so saf when it was over. I LOVE how she doesnt sugarcoat over embarassing moments between characters in steamy scenes; the romance just feels so much more genuine and healthy. Also her portrayal of Mash's werewolf traits and habits were hilarious, and unique to a lot of other werewolf...

Holy macaroni! This popped up on my KU Home Screen and I was stuck in a book slump. I decided to give it a shot. At the beginning where it said Note, I read it all and fully thought I wouldn’t like this book too much. I mean, I’ve never read anything like it, so I genuinely went it blind. This was one of the best books ever. I laughed, cried, smiled so hard my cheeks hurt, and worried when the characters worried. I even broke one of my main reading rules. I usually don’t read a book over 350...

I had a really good time with this book. The chapter names had me rolling, it was all very funny. Mash is the biggest golden retriever sunshine to ever exist. Happy and unapologetically weird. Cian is a computer nerd but hot with tattoos and the perfect balance for Mash. It has unrequited love because it’s my fave trope but also friends to lovers and found family, and a lot of discussions of Cian foreskin 🙃 all in good fun. I think it was longer than necessary but the story was well thought...
