He actually gets the female perspective without making it feel performative. The emotional beats are genuine, and he writes sexual tension like he understands what women (and men if they’d admit it!) actually want to read.”????? “Okay so I literally could not put this down??? The whole grumpy lit professor meets sunshine bar owner thing usually isn’t my jam but WOW Until the Storm Breaks made it work. And the steam was… ahem (fanning myself to cool off). Anyway, I stayed up way too late reading!”?????“This absolutely wrecked me in the best possible way. One minute I’m giggling at their banter, the next I’m ugly crying into my wine glass. If you need a book that hits every single emotional note, this is it. Until the Storm Breaks was everything.”????? “New favorite author alert! Nate Wilder better write faster because I NEED more of this. Funny, scorching hot, emotionally satisfying ending that had me bawling and grinning like an idiot. Off to pre-order whatever the hell this man writes next!”The Midnight Men Series:Until the Storm Breaks (Book 1)Until You Say Stay (Book 2)Until the Stars Fall (Book 3)
