Architect of Love is a M/M romance with two hot, successful businessmen. If you're looking for a quick, fun, and steamy read, you would enjoy Architect of Love. It would be great for reading on an airplane or during a short car trip.
The characters were developed and mostly likable. I really liked that they were normal, regular guys. No rock stars, no sports stars, no billionaires...just two guys. Lance refinishes furniture, and Forrest is an architect. They meet at a club, and there is an instant attraction! No numbers were exchanged, and it's just a one-night stand. Or is it?
Architect of Love's plot was fast paced and held my attention all the way to the end. Overall, Architect of Love was good, but just didn't make it to great for me. I felt like there was more story to tell, and it could have been a longer, more complete story.
This was my first book by John Charles. It is part of the Fated Soulmates series, but can easily be read as a standalone. I know I will definitely be downloading book one of this series. I look forward to more by this author.

I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads.
Lance works restoring antique furniture and Forrest is an architect. Their relationship starts out as a very hot hook up but a chance meeting has them deciding to get to know each other better. When Lance discovers that Forrest is the head of a firm that is in the public eye it causes problems.
I really like reading romance books staring regular guys and Lance and Forrest are, even through Forrest's job means he is at times a public figure. I liked our heroes. There is an honesty to them and their relationship that felt real. The steamy scenes were good and the amount of them was in proportion so they didn't take over the story or get boring and repetitive .
That said, there were a few things I didn't like. The writing needs a really good polish. The story has too much tell for me and not enough show which made it hard to get any deep connection with the story. Finally the ending seemed quite abrupt.
Overall I enjoyed Architect of Love. Will I read the rest of this series? I think I might. I don't need every book I read to be 5 stars and I enjoy having a series to read that is easy reading and just for enjoyment.

Quick read
Reviewed in the United States on 3 February 2017Verified Purchase
If you are looking for a quick read that is M/M, then Architect of Love by John Charles might be the book you are looking for. It was quick with a HEA, and overall it was a sweet story, but it did have some issues.
Forrest and Lance met at a gay nightclub and hit it off. They immediately went back to Lance's place and proceeded to get to know each other better. It was only supposed to be a one night stand, but sometimes, you find something unexpected in the oddest of places. Now if only Lance can get over what he feels is the space between them.
I liked the overall story. It tackled issues of having to deal with a career and a relationship, as well as what happens when on person feels unequal to their partner, and I liked the chemistry between Lance and Forrest. That said, there were some issues as well. It was rushed, at one point it went from 3rd person to first person and then back again, and there were a few phrases that didn't make much sense to me...things I couldn't quite picture in my head.
The relationship between the two main characters was good, as was their relationship between them and their best friends and family. And while there isn't cheating per se in this book, there is something that some people may not like. I didn't have a problem with it though. My issue that Forrest's best friend calls Lance's mother, and then nothing is ever done or said further about it. It seemed unnecessary. In addition, some of the details about Forrest's business seem off from what I know about city planning.
Overall the story was good and enjoyable, but there are issues with the book. Even with that, I still recommend it for a quick read and a sweet type of relationship. 3.5 stars.
