Making It Sizzle. The Making It Series, #3

Angel Perez doesn't do relationships. The ex-Marine turned nude model does one-night stands, protein shakes, and unsolicited nudity on shared balconies. He's loud, crude, impossibly hot, and everything Landon Smith has spent his carefully organized life avoiding. Landon doesn't do chaos. The socially awkward computer science professor does algorithms, mismatched socks, and tutoring sessions with at-risk kids.
His life is perfectly structured - until the most infuriating man alive moves in next door and decides that Landon is the one thing he craves and won't stop pursuing. What starts as an unlikely friendship becomes an undeniable attraction, and finally a love so intense it brings both men to tears - and to their knees. Angel, who has never felt anything for another man beyond a single night, discovers that the scariest thing he's ever faced isn't combat - it's vulnerability.
And Landon, who has already survived being abandoned by everyone he's ever loved, isn't sure his heart can take one more disappearing act. But Angel is hiding something that could shatter everything. And when he vanishes without explanation, Landon has to decide if he can trust a man who's never given his heart to anyone before. Making It Sizzle is a steamy, hilarious, heart-wrenching opposites-attract romance featuring a father with absolutely no filter, a best friend who will interrogate you over lattes, and a love story that proves the most terrifying thing a tough guy can do is fall in love.
Fully reimagined and expanded from 40, 000 to 69, 000 words, this second edition delivers deeper emotional arcs, richer romance, and even more of the laugh-out-loud humor and heat that made readers fall for Angel and Landon the first time around - including the world's most profane and lovable father. Steamy, funny, and guaranteed to make you ugly-cry at least once.
