Advanced Reader Copy Review: Freeze Frame by E.M. Denning

This ARC was provided by Gay Romance Reviews and this review is my honest opinion. My thanks to them and the author for the opportunity to review.

Freeze Frame, by E.M. Denning, is the third book in the Lights, Camera, Love series. I would strongly recommend reading book two in this series as it sets up the story and introduces some of the shared characters. This book follows David and Josh after a really sweet meet-cute involving their respective dogs Wally and Nitro in the local dog park.

I really enjoyed this story and how their relationship developed. David was such a good person in general and specifically for Josh.  He was the older of two and more confident in some areas and less confident in others, so they balanced each other out. David just knew when to give Josh space and the attraction between the two of them leapt off the pages. There was a lot of chemistry and heat between the two of them.

Josh, for understandable reasons, had a lot a more to navigate and deal with during the story. It was heartwarming to see him fully become himself and embrace the next stage of his personal and professional life, as well as his place in his found family. The story around him and his sister’s relationship was really well written and moving.

Every time, I have started one of these books, I have thought the story is going to go one way and instead it has gone in a completely different direction and this continues that theme. I think an interesting element here was exploring the impact of working in adult entertainment industry and the effect that has on family bonds. I liked this sweet story, and I think it is a good addition to the series, and I would recommend reading it. 4.4/5 stars.
