S.E.X. Review~ Love According to Liam by V.L. Locey

Sometimes it takes a child to remind us that love and family are rarely perfect but an accepting heart can smooth out the imperfections.

Mike Kneller-Mettler’s life has certainly been on the fast track upward since he met his husband, Bryn. Now married for nearly a year to the starting goalie for the Pittsburgh Ravens, Mike’s found himself propelled into a new home, a new career, and a new role as a loving spouse. As his baby sister’s wedding approaches, Mike is going to be faced with a couple of monumental decisions that will affect not only his future but everyone he holds close to his heart.

Bryn Mettler and his team didn’t have the best ending to their season. Nursing a recurring groin injury, Bryn isn’t quite sure he’s ready for wedding chaos. But the nuptials are going to go off whether he’s able to dance with the bride or not. Amid the usual insanity that every wedding brings, unexpected guests show up to throw the beautifully planned affair into turmoil. As the adults slip into childish behavior, it might be up to Liam to be the voice of reason.

Love According to Liam was a wonderfully sweet and angst-filled continuation of V.L. Locey’s According to Liam series. I would recommend the books be read in order to understand the flow of the storyline.

Bryn and Michael, now a married couple, were making a life for themselves both personally and professionally. Hockey season ended, allowing Bryn to focus on home life and the next step as a couple. Michael, no longer working full time from home, balanced work and home while also focusing on married life. Enter Liam. Precocious, adorable, insatiable, and ever present- their nephew once again stole the show.

Kelly, Michael’s sister and mother to Liam embarked on her own life as she prepared to wed Adam. Michael of course was the brother of honor and general wedding planner. Between all his roles- web designer, blogger, husband, and brother-the one which tried him the most was son. Angst was not far behind as Michael and Kelly’s conservatively religious parents were back in the picture.

I must admit, even though the book had numerous funny parts, mostly revolving around Liam, I also was reduced to tears- not something I expected after reading book 1. Love According to Liam was at times heart-breaking with heady topics. But, do not let that deter you from reading the tale, because it was definitely worth the read.

I enjoyed Michael’s inner monologues, Bryn’s take charge and sometimes overbearing nature, and Liam’s quips. Ms. Locey hit it out of the park with Love…..
