Who Would Like This Book:
If you're a fan of grumpy/sunshine pairings, steamy banter, and heart-melting character growth, "Wound Tight" is a total treat. Tessa Bailey's first M/M romance doesn't hold back on her signature heat, witty dialogue, and memorable side characters from the Made in Jersey crew. The slow-burn romance between prickly CEO Renner and the earnest, newly-out Milo is deeply satisfying, especially if you love stories about self-discovery and opposites attracting. If you enjoy workplace dynamics, found family feels, and love a romance that seamlessly balances spice with sweetness, this one's for you.
Who May Not Like This Book:
Some readers found the story moved a bit too quickly at times or felt unresolved threads around Renner's job and the economic class difference between the leads. If you'd prefer a romance with deep backstory and exploration of every subplot, or if you tend to be skeptical of boss-employee setups, this might not totally win you over. The heavy focus on sizzling scenes over in-depth character history may not suit those looking for a slower, more angsty build.

From The Publisher:
A sexy new M/M romance from New York Times Bestselling author Tessa Bailey
When CEO Renner Bastion walks into a room, everyone keeps their distance. Well, everyone but the sarcastic, tattooed, Boston-bred security guard whose presence has kept Renner in New Jersey longer than intended. As if the unwanted attraction isn't unsettling enough, Renner finds out his protector isn't as unavailable as originally thought.
Milo Bautista just came out to his wealthy, ultra-confident boss, a man he secretly respects and admires...in more ways than he'll admit. Worldly, experienced Renner would never look in his direction, let alone share some of that confidence he wears like a cloak, so Milo has set his sights on someone else to be his first.
Until Renner offers him private lessons in seduction...
