When Matt Connelly suggests to his best buddy Cody Mook that they head to downtown Seattle to audition for the gay reality TV show Husband Hunters, both agree the experience might be a lark and a chance to grab their fifteen minutes of fame. What they don’t know is that the show, modeled after HGTV’s House Hunters, will open doors of longing neither expected. For Matt, the secret love he has long harbored for Cody might be thrust into the spotlight. Cody might realize his search for his perfect-forever-man extends no farther than the man who’s always been at his side.

Husband Hunters promises laughter, tears, and, just maybe, a happy ever after. Will Cody and Matt’s story be one of best-friends-to-lovers—or an outright disaster?

Review: Matt Connelly and Cody Mook are best friends. One day Matt suggests that they try out for the show, Husband Hunters. Cody is reluctant to do so but with Matt’s encouragement, he caves and agrees to tryout.
Matt has been in love with Cody for a long time but is terrified to tell him for fear of losing Cody all together. He would rather have him as a friend than not have him in his life at all.

I have personally never liked dating game shows, as I don’t think it’s possible to truly get to know each other in a short amount of time to think this is the one and marry them. But I understood the need for Matt’s feelings to finally to come out so he could move on and find someone else or be with Cody.

A story of one man having feelings for his best friend and his best friend not knowing. It was heartbreaking to see how Matt was affected every time Cody went and talked to him about his one-night stands.

Beautiful descriptions of the mountain scenery. Matt and Cody seemed to feel for each other a lot more than what they were saying especially Cody. But as with most things you don’t realize what you have until it’s gone. This was what happened to Cody.

Well written with drama all throughout. Great read.
