Book 4 of 5: The Breakfast Club

See all formats and editions

Nightclub owner Marcus Feldman never met a man he didn’t love, at least for the night. Although his best friends have all found love, Marcus shuns their advice to commit to one man and settle down. His past has taught him monogamy and marriage is for fools, and Marcus is anything but a fool.

Tyler Reiss’s dream of dancing professionally is unexpectedly cut short and replaced by a different kind of love. He trades in his ballet slippers for go go boots, and spends his nights dancing at the hottest gay club in the city. Flirting with the customers for tips is easy, but resisting the dark and sexy Marcus is becoming harder to do with each passing day.

Unforeseen circumstances bring Marcus and Tyler closer and though they give in to their mutual passion, both still struggle to guard their hearts. When crises threaten, Tyler and Marcus find their strength in each other rather than falling apart. Tyler must choose to either run, or stay and fight for the life he wants, while Marcus realizes that love doesn’t mean losing himself and opens his heart, making him a better man in the end.

You’ll LOVE them. And then you’ll be ready… for Marcus

Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2016

Second to None is the third book in Felice Stevens’ Breakfast Club series. If you’re new to this series, one-click “Beyond the Surface” and “Betting on Forever” to meet Julian and Nick, and Zach and Sam. You’ll LOVE them. And then you’ll be ready… for Marcus.

Playboy Marcus, my Marcus. Yes, unapologetic slut (I do love those) Marcus knocked me off my feet. I knew he had a heart of gold, and I knew, just knew when it was his turn to find love. He would fall hardest of all. And did he ever, meeting his match in Tyler.

A delightful surprise, the dancer gave as good as he got, made Marcus do some dancing of his own. There was no loving and leaving Tyler or his pint-sized secret weapon: his niece. Sweet with adorable little girl moments, Lillie helped Marcus to open up and love.

Marcus and Tyler struggled inwardly and with each other, battling life’s twists and turns.
Facing their fears together, they found themselves and their HEA. Added bonus: more of Marcus’s best friends and former MCs Nick/Julian and Zach/Sam, and a crossover with Micah (I love him; why doesn’t everyone else?) and Josh from the Memories series.

All of Felice’s books are sweet and sexy, but this one was more intense. The sexy scenes were crazy hot, and at the same time, so loving – everything I wanted them to be and then some. I love these two – great characters, wonderful writing, and what a story!

I am a diehard Felice fan. I crave that guaranteed HEA with those GOD-I-GOTTA-HAVE-THEM-SHMOOPY moments. This author is not afraid to have her guys speak their feelings, show their softer side. And these very same oh-so-sweet men will steam the hell out of a room when they rip each other’s clothes off. Especially Marcus and Tyler – the intensity in both the love and sex – Ladies and Gents, this is Felice Stevens at her best.

I am sad for the series’ end (Julian, Zach and Marcus have all found love), though that is eased by the Zach and Sam novella just weeks away. After that? We’ll see what the lovely Ms. Stevens conjures up next. I know neither I nor the Fiercest of Felice’s fans can wait!!!

Favorite HEA Writer!

Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2016

Verified Purchase

I am completely addicted to pretty much Ms. Stevens writes. I read the second book in this series first, then the first, then this third in one (in one sitting) because she weaves such fun stories. I was so excited to see this book had come out so quickly after the second book about Zach and Sam. I was even more excited to see her include characters from another of her series in this book. I wasn't 100% sure the Marcus mentioned in the other series was the same, but he was, which just proves how this wonderful writer can interlock multiple stories by just one or two other characters. Her Breakfast Club series is the first series I'd read and I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants that HEA-type of story. They are easy to read (took me less than two hours per book), and the characters are likable. I can't wait to see what else she has coming out in the future.

Second to none.

Absolutely amazing and heart wrenching. I started this after reading the first two in the Man Up series and was so curious about Tyler and Marcus that I couldnt wait to read this. Now, I plan to read the first three from this series to learn more about Julian and Zach. Now here's a bit of a possible spoiler.
This touched... no, dug it's heel into some very sore personal spots I have. I will try to get my point across without giving too much away. Marcus' relationship with his parents. From the way that this was written, Marcus had given his mother every opportunity to be a mom, and try to make amends. Right up till she was hospitalized. Now, as glad as I am that he was there when she passed, as I believe that no one should have to draw their last breath alone, he was not in the wrong in Any Way, that I could see. And I say this from personal experience, as more than likely will many that read this.
His misplaced guilt is normal as well, and very common in people that suffered from neglect and abuse, but underserved. Sadly enough, parents that are like his, more than likely suffered at the hands of their own parents and knew no other way. This does not excuse their actions though. I felt for his mother, even though she didnt care about her son. His father on the other hand, i felt, at this point, was probably a hopeless case. And honestly, as cold and unfeeling as he was, deserved every word and more that Marcus gave him. Im just glad Marcus didnt end up like him, which was where he was headed.

Great book. I proudly recommend.

Perfect Storm and Perfect Ending

Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2016

All through this series the mystery man in the tightly bonded friendship of Julian, Zach and Marcus has been Marcus Feldman, the man in the black shirt on the cover (thank you Ms. Stevens for the answer to my question). He has been cast as the hedonist, totally irredeemable and cynical. There is an interesting parallel here with Micah Steinberg, one of the MCs of the first book of Ms. Stevens' previous series, Memories--and the wonderful thing is that both Micah and his now husband Josh show up here as important and amazing characters.

Marcus has this hot gay nightclub called Sparks and he is rolling in money as well as well sculptured, gorgeous, clients and pole dancers. One of those dancers is Tyler Reiss, whose background and history we are not privy to until well into the first quarter of the book, and only because Marcus, in his inimitably crass way, asks the questions and makes the discoveries for us.

There is a good deal of wait and bait and wait and see in the beginning of the book--and then the whole thing explodes into a fast-moving, angst-filled, self-doubting, thick-headed battle between two men who never let anyone inside, even each other, until it's almost too late.

As is the case in many books like this, it's a child who races to the rescue, and Lilly is a cool four-year-old who beguiles not only her Uncle Tyler but also the sour Marcus and his friends. The circumstances and plot which develops are logical, very New York, and exciting in every respect. This is another great ending to another great series by an author who has entered my personal Great MM Authors Hall of Fame.

Everything in life happens for a reason...

Reviewed in Germany on August 10, 2017

Verified Purchase

Markus Feldman, charismatic and beautiful, doesn't believe in love or commitment in any form. His club, the hottest gay meeting point in town, is like a buffet of half-naked, willing men for him. Used to have sex with men that mean nothing to him and whom used him as much as he did them, he never gave a damn about anyone except himself and perhaps his best friends. His childhood shaped him into the man he’d become; ruthless, cold, and self-indulgent. Being on a dry spell now for almost three month, because of a stupid bet, takes its toll on his overactive libido and his very tempting and teasing employees are making it even worse. Never one to back off from a challenge, the new guy on his team of dancers, Tyler Reiss, gets under his skin, way more than his bet with Zach.

Everything in life happens for a reason, but it’s hard to see a reason in all the pain and sorrow life throws at you regularly. For Tyler life never had been easy and having to give up his dreams of a professional dance carrier, to take care of his 4 year old nice, left him with a terrible sense of desolation. The new job as club dancer had nothing to do with who he was, but he needed the money and fast. Things would be so much easier if he just could keep his very irritating boss out of his mind. The knowledge of Marcus screwing basically every guy who works for him, as well as his arrogance and cockiness don’t make him very trust worthy and having been used by people his whole life, Tyler doesn’t trust anybody.

Both men are broken in their own way and are still dealing with the struggles from their past. When fate strikes yet again it gets them closer, but their demons are more present than ever. Even though giving up fighting their attraction tooth and nail, they still have a very long way to go. With his childhood hunting him on every step of the way, Marcus is not sure if he ever can be the man Ty needs and deserves. Never seeing himself as a family man, let alone ever having to spent a thought of commitment to not only a lover, but also to a 4 year old girl, makes him struggle even more. For Tyler having to overcome his pride and accepting help from a virtual stranger didn’t sit right with him. By learning a long time ago that everything in life came with a price tag attached, his trust issues are getting on a whole new level. “When people have used you your whole life, it’s hard to learn to trust who’s real.” Eventually they’ll learn that life without love, wasn’t a life lived at all and life without the one you love wasn’t an option at all.

This wonderful book takes part in the Breakfast Club Series by the author. Seeing as I jumped in at the third book of the series, I’ve been glad that it could be read as a standalone. Reading about the couples, whose stories took place in the first two books of the series, made me wondering how they got their significant other and I just had to get the whole series.

Thank you to Felice Stevens for this wonderful written book!

This story is about Marcus the playboy of the group of friends. Emotionally damaged by his parents Marcus doesn't do relationships he only wants one night stands until a new dancer starts working at the club. Tyler was to be a professional dancer until his life changed when his sister left her daughter Lillie with him and disappeared. Tyler thinks Marcus is a conceited arrogant ass who only wants Tyler for a night. Circumstances bring them both together and Marcus realises there may be something to this monogamy that his friends have. Can Tyler trust Marcus with his heart and can Marcus finally trust someone to love him for him not for his money. Well written with likeable characters and a good overall story. Recommended.
