Catch Me If Yout Can: The fear of getting caught is half the fun.
Lowly art gallery assistant Caesar Romano is freely out of the closet. Now he’d just like to get out of his Nana’s guest room. Everything—his reputation and his financial freedom—is riding on the success of tonight’s gallery opening. If only he could shake free of the past so easily.
A mysterious gatecrasher, Dan Green, looks like a promising addition to his pending new life—until Caesar’s ex shows up and suddenly the opening disintegrates into a half-naked dance melee. When the glitter settles, a missing sculpture of Justin Timberlake has Caesar up to his eyebrows in extortion, intrigue and a wild sexual adventure underneath, inside, and on top of a variety of furnishings.
As the cast of suspects piles up, so do the questions. Like who’s really blackmailing whom? And what does a stolen paint-by-numbers clown matter when Dan is so outrageously capable of blowing Caesar’s resistance to smithereens?
This book contains graphic language, sex, lies, intrigue, clowns, kleptomania, anal sex, oral sex, mutual masturbation, bad driving, good cooking, and the missing head of a Justin Timberlake statue. Not for the sour of disposition.

*SPOILER FREE
I absolutely LOVE some M/M romance and after seeing so many great reviews of this series by L.B. Gregg, I had to give it a shot. I am so freaking glad I did!
Catch Me If You Can is an absolute comedy of errors with Romano at it’s center. Romano is in one word a mess! He is getting nothing out of his job and his love life is DOA. It all changes after the most recent showing at the gallery where he works. A mysterious Dective Dan seems to be watching him, Justin Timberlake’s head is missing, his ex-boyfriend showed up and made a fool of himself and some people are being blackmailed…
Catch Me If You Can was hilarious from start to finish and the mystery definitely kept me on my toes. Not to mention that Romano and Albright’s chemistry definitely sizzles off the page and warms up your insides.
Right after I was done with Catch Me If You Can, I went straight (no pun intended) ahead and delved into Trust Me If You Dare. In this sequel the stakes are definitely higher. Romano and Albright are trying to make their new relationship work even though Albright is working for his ex-boyfriend and a mysterious guest.
L.B. Gregg had done a marvelous job in creating and cultivating these characters. By the end of Catch Me If You Can you feel like you know these people and are pretty invested in their lives, while at the same time keeping up the right amount of mystery to keep you glued to the page.
I am extremely glad I gave this series a chance! I am an unconditional fan of Josh Lanyon’s and finding such an awesome writer in L.B. Gregg just means my M/M reading will be doubled… SCORE!
If you like reading M/M novels or if you are thinking of giving the genre a try, i definitely recommend this series. You won’t regret it!
