SAME PAGE: Book One HOW THE LIGHT GETS IN series
He was like the only splash of color in a black-and-white photograph.
The man was beautiful.
At an exhibition opening in Sydney, jaded Hollywood heartthrob Jaxon Moncrieff lays eyes on publicity-shy artist Liam Lassiter for the first time and is immediately captivated. But he doesn’t get far into their first conversation before he realizes what he’s feeling is attraction, which brings him up short. Jaxon has always been a womanizer.
Despite his reservations, Jaxon makes a play for Liam, but Liam has his own issues. Unlucky in love and orphaned at sixteen, he is reluctant to open his heart to anyone, and dismisses Jaxon out of hand.
Driven by a need he doesn’t understand, Jaxon organizes a return to Sydney to film his next project. If he can’t be with Liam, maybe they can be friends. Of course, that creates a whole new problem. Now Jaxon is falling in love for the first time. How can he move their relationship from friends to lovers without destroying the trust he’s worked so hard for?

“…This is by far one of the best M/M romances I have read, ever. It wasn’t insta-love by any means. Jaxon and Liam learned about each other and their pasts, became basically best friends before they became lovers. What they have to learn if they are going to make their relationship last is trust. Watching them fall in love was beautiful and mesmerizing, I couldn’t put the book down!…”

“Lily Velden has done it again! She’s dug deeply into her character’s souls and beautifully and lyrically made me a part of their lives. Same Page is a heartwarming yet gut-wrenching read that brought tears to my eyes, along with some smiles, as the rocky journey to love for Jaxon and Liam took place over many months. The journey wasn’t easy as self-doubts and trust issues ate away at them from the moment they met to their immensely satisfying and crowd pleasing HEA. Throw in numerous playful and steamy sexual encounters that builds the bond between them and by the conclusion I was completely won over.”

“The story is well written, has a great pace, very visual, and just pure silkiness in dialogue.
I loved how these two did not finally come together, and I mean emotionally until half way through the story. It was a good slow burn with lots of character building and dialogue. It wasn’t until 70% that they became intimate sexually. Really a good pace.
The ending was good too. You could walk away from the series satisfied, or continue on with book 2 for more of the boys, I know I definitely am!”

“How they finally get together is so romantic it had me tingling and sighing all the way through. I fell hard for these two endearing characters whose road to true love wasn’t always an easy one but it sure was off the scale sexy! Sensual and passionate and oh so romantic it had me tingling and sighing all the way through. I adore how Lily writes, for me the chemistry she generates between her beautiful boys is always tangible and her love scenes are just scrumptious, and the cover was one of my favourites of last year…I could stare into that exquisite blue eye forever! I loved these guys and this story and fell even harder when book 2 …’The Race Is On’…arrived! Sublime!”

“…I was snuggled deep in my reading chair lost in the words of this story and looked down at my e-reader and saw only 61% and panicked! Oh no, I thought, there is too much book left for all the goodness happening right now. With one eye open I kept reading, waiting for other shoe to drop. Instead it got better…”
