Two of my favourite authors writing a series about a gorgeous group of men from the Ballsy Boys porn studio? What is not to love here???
K.M. Newhold blew me away with her Heathens Ink series and Nora Phoenix with her No Shame series so when this collaboration came to light, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. And the best part...this is only the first book!
I wasn't disappointed. The book is filled with characters that you immediately fall in love with. Pornstar Rebel and relationship-phobe Troy are the focus of this book and make a lovely introduction to the Ballsy Boys world. The characters are beautifully developed, with surprises on both sides that break the expected stereotypes in the best of ways. I also adored the glimpse at the characters to come as the series progresses. There is so much potential for emotional rollercoaster rides in between some very hot sexy times as proven by Rebel and Troy's journey.
Seriously, if you loved these writers individually, you will love Rebel.

Oh Rebel and Troy how I love these two. When two individually awesome authors get together to write a story, you know its going to be fanfreakintastic. This story is so well written and so cohesive, that you would almost think it was 1 author not 2. The dynamic between Rebel and his porn family and his real family is wonderful and his interactions with Troy are hot and sometimes hilarious. Troy is a little lost soul, sfter his early childhood issues, he doesnt let anyone in until he meets his favourite porn star Rebel ( and how he meets him is hilarious) Such a fantastic start to what is going to be a rollercoaster ride of Bally Boys, and I cant wait for the ride to continue.

Oh yes. This was lovely. Both have vowed to stay away from relationships because they just dont work. But they meet each other and despite their best efforts, they are just meant to be. Rebel is the one chasing and Troy is the one running. But when the runner stops running and the chaser stops chasing..... truths are revealed and hearts finally connect.

Oh my goodness! Just picked this one up by chance and you can bet your bottom dollar that this series is now on my “buy with one click” list.
Two gorgeous kinda broken guys, loads of emotional and psychological growth both individually and together and an absolute boat load of super hot, super graphic dirty sex.
So good.

Holy Dooley! Why why why did I wait so long to start reading these boys!!
Definitely binge worthy material! Even with a real wicked headache I powered through and I loved every minute!!!
Rebel and Troy wow smoking hot from the start!
Troy gets paid to dump people, so when he has a job to dump Rebel he is star struck and offers a better alternative 😉
From there it turns into a friends with benefits arrangement until it turns into more.
This was just the book I wanted to read and it was perfect!

Omg didn't think I would enjoy a book with the lead being a porn star! I loved it so much! All the feels. All the sexy sex and all the clueless love. I can't wait to read the rest 😍

I really loved this. Two great characters and a fantastic storyline. Can't wait to read more in this series!
The dialogue and banter was perfect and characters backgrounds was interesting but didn't overshadow the focus on their relationship.

I'm a huge fan of both writers and thoroughly enjoyed this book. It's a little bit angsty and a lot hot! I can't wait for the rest of the series.

What a fantastic book! I absolutely adore Miss Neuhold and Miss Phoenix's work so was really looking forward to this and it does not disappoint!
Rebel (Hendrix) is a porn star. He's extremely happy in his work and life apart from not being able to hold a long term relationship though he can understand how hard it would be for a partner to accept his work.
Troy has lived his life alone, foster care since 6yrs old and supporting himself ever since. Not allowing people close or letting himself trust others leads to a lonely life but it's safe for him.
A random meeting leads to them becoming "buddies" and friends, an alien concept to Troy but neither can deny how much they like being around the other. What follows is sweet, romantic and grips your heartstrings as you see both struggle with what is growing between them.
The characters is this book are amazing, strong and deep, holding your attention and keeping you interested right up until the last page of the book. And not just the MC's, the supporting characters - the rest of the Ballsy Boys family and Mason, Troy's only possible, maybe friend - bring to life the world that it's set in. Fully showing the sense of family that Ballsy Boys is to all of those involved. You can see the possible stories brewing for the other Boys and it's great, definitely drawing you in, thinking of the future and what the next books in the series will involve.
Rebel and Troy are adorable and you're rooting for them from the very beginning, wanting Rebel to have that love and stability and Troy the love and family that he never had growing up. When they make a trip for Rebel's parents anniversary, Troy is overwhelmed by the attention and care shown to him by the family and it makes you want to cry for him. Emotion is strong in many parts of the book and I just cannot wait for the next in the series!
I also want to say how well it's written in the book in regard to working in the porn industry. It's not skanky or demeaning or anything like that. It's work, that is enjoyed by those doing it even though for each it's for a different reason. It's written really well by Kyleen and Nora!
I definitely recommend this to fans of both authors and for anyone looking for a romance, comedy, hot page turner :-)

Not a bad start to a series...

4.25 stars from me. Don't normally read stories connected with the Porn Industry, but I'm absolutely loving the Irresistible Omegas series by Nora Phoenix of which Alpha's Sacrifice is book 1, and the characters are so good that I thought I'd try something else of hers.
Pretty happy that I did...I loved all of the Ballsy Boys characters, and Hendrix [yes, that Hendrix, even though they spelt his name wrong, it's Jimi guys...] and Troy made for a cute couple, once they'd gotten over Troy's trust and abandonment issues. Of course, Rebel [Hendrix...what can you do with hippie parents 😉??] was getting more involved in the creative side of the business, and his participation on the 'active' side of Ballsy Boys was lessening, so finding someone [Troy] who already knew he was a porn star and didn't mind his 'job' was a huge plus.

My friend pestered me into reading this book but I was reluctant to read sex filled pages. I was so wrong. This book has such a great story with off the page chemistry between the characters. I practically inhaled the book. The sexual tension between the characters had me on the edge of my seat for most of the story.
I'm now officially stalking the authors and without a doubt highly recommend reading.

I liked this book but I had a big problem with Troy. I just didn't like him. Rebel I liked and while I get why Troy was the way he was, I was urging Rebel to dump him and be done with him. Thankfully his character improved somewhat but my dislike for him was so strong I nearly abandoned the book!!

Rebel, the first in the Ballsy Boys series is amazing. We get an introduction to the main members of the Ballsy Boys while the main story focuses on Rebel, one of the Ballsy Boys and Troy, who is hired by Tom to break up with Rebel. This begins their story which has some ups, some downs and ends fantastically.
Love both K.M. Neuhold and Nora Phoenix’s writing so the two of them together is awesome. Can’t wait for more Ballsy Boys.
