Review / Release Blitz: Backslide by Nicole Dykes

Release Date: January 20

When you’re young, everything seems brighter, more hopeful, and like anything is possible.

Which is great. But it can also lead to so many mistakes.

Mistakes you promise yourself you’ll never make again.
You promise yourself you'll be smarter, guard your heart, and make better decisions. And you won’t ever let anyone crush you again.

But what happens when you’re confronted with the past?
Nash Davis is settled and happy, helping his brother and his wife pursue their dreams.

But when his biggest regret comes crashing back into his life, will he have the strength he promised himself he’d have?

Can he keep his walls up? Or will Adrian Walker’s presence be too much?

Will it lead toward an inevitable backslide to where they began? Or can there be a future after so much pain?

When Nash and Adrian are thrown together in the Ozarks for months, they’re about to find out.

MY REVIEW

The boy, now a man, who broke his heart is standing in front of him at his family's lodge, and Nash can't believe his eyes. Adrian was the only man he'd ever been with. The only one to shred his heart. And he's back. Only he's with his fiancée. Now it's looking like things are gonna get downright uncomfortable around here.


Adrian has always lived his life the way he's been expected by his family. Then he comes face to face with his first and only love, while he's with his fiancée. When the feelings he's always tried to push down come rushing back, he'll need to face himself and decide if he's going to live his life the way his family wants, or to simply be himself, with the only person who loves him the way he is, for who he is.


Second chance stories are probably my favorite trope, and it's because of stories like Backslide. There was a lot of pain between these two men, and more than a few obstacles to be overcome, but they finally found their happiness and I was rooting them on with every page. I absolutely loved them and their sweet, heartfelt, and sexy story.

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
