Starred Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

 

I enjoyed Whit so much that I decided to check out Sem. I did get a glimpse into the crazy plot from Whit, so I was more than exited to read Sem. It was just as good as Whit. Heck, it was even crazier. I loved it. It involves profanity, sex scenes, emotional abuse from family, some mentions of bullying, and homophobes. If that doesn't scare you away, then get your TBR and let us start the review. 

Sem (Unexpected, #2) Review 

Sem is the second book in the Unexpected series by Cora Rose. We got a sneak peak of Magnus and Sem's first meet in the first book, Whit. Sem decided to drive Magnus home from the hospital. Sem, a hulk of a man, noticed and got fascinated by little Magnus's fashion sense. So much so that he followed him around. Or that was the vibe I got from in Whit. In Sem, it gave more details of why Sem stooped to such measures. The bottom-line excuse was Magnus intrigued Sem. This fascination led to something more intense. The interaction between the two developed from banters to steamy bets. Once bet led to another until love swept them off their feet. 

Sem and Magnus's relationship grew and blossomed, sending me over the edge. Like the first book, Cora never disappointed in showing us each emotional struggle. The character development came at the right stages to keep me invested until the end. Sometimes we think we want something but it's not what we need. 

Like Whit and Caleb, Magnus and Sem was adorable. I was very much satisfied with this match up. For once the uke and sem were just as I imagined it. I even loved how this MM story could be read standalone. Magnus and Sem were to die for. I gobbled up the short story in a few hours. I rated Sem five stars out of five stars as well. 

I recommend Sem by Cora Rose to all those insecure readers getting by. It's hard to fight for what you don't think you're worthy of, but hey, that's okay. We just have to pay attention to the people around us and accept ourselves for who we are. No matter what our flaws are, there is always something or someone out there for us.

Happy reading and let's get to Emery (Unexpected, #3).
