Vet Shop Boys is a series that I adore. Each vet and their search for their HEA is layered and emotionally satisfying. And Iāve said with each book, itās my favorite.
Sigh.
Got Me Looking, the third in Casey Coxās Vet Shop Boys series is my favorite.
Casey turned two characters I wasnāt entirely sure of into two of the characters I canāt get enough of. Itās as though theyāve been kept purposely a tad out of focus for the last two books, just waiting for the author to pull them both into her narrative spotlight and make them heartwarmingly brilliant.
Gus, the owner of Vet Shop Boys Vet Clinic and recently dumped groom, has been a very lovely but secondary personality so far. Here Gus is revealed in all his joyous layers! His love of daytime tv, his dancing, the pain and loss of his first love, everything is finally exposed. The man is a huge wonder but missing someone and incredibly lonely.
Tate is a smart influencer and cammer on 4Fans Only whoās now trying to find a publisher for Gus story. Heās also someone who āsparksā with Gus when they get together with their mutual friends. Tateās childhood has been one of constant parental marital struggles, leading him to believe that monogamy isnāt the best lifestyle, especially for himself.
Gus is 20 years older and a monogamist. While as someone whoās pan, the age difference isnāt a factor, Tate identifies as poly.
This story of how their romance begins is so sweet, and sexy yet so grounded in the issues that keep people stuck if they donāt communicate. Gus and Tate talk, think, communicating through obstacles big and small, perceived and actual, to find their way to each other.
How wonderful. How adorable and adult.
While I donāt have favorite couples here, no, really, Gus and Tate come close. But really with Fulton wearing a āI shih tzu Notā t-shirt, how could I ignore him and his honey? It was fantastic having everyone involved here, including Tyler the newest Vet.
Thereās another story in the works but nothing on title or release date. Iāll be waiting!
Until then, Iām highly recommending Got Me Looking (Vet Shop Boys #3) by Casey Cox. Not familiar with this series? Start at the beginning! Iāve listed them below. Each one is a gem!

Synopsis:
A jilted groom and a guy who doesn’t believe in monogamy fall in love? Yeah. Right.
After getting cheated on at my own goddamn wedding, I’m through with men. I’m approaching fifty, and all I’ve ever wanted is to settle down, get married, and live happily ever after. But yeah, that hasn’t exactly worked out great for me.
The last person I expect to understand me is Tate. Sure, he’s cute, curious, and clever. A firecracker with no filter who somehow manages to stay friendly and genuine at the same time. But he isn’t exactly a settle-down kinda guy. Oh, and did I mention he’s also twenty years younger than me?
There’s no way something could ever happen between the two of us, so how is it possible that Tate has got me looking at loveāāand himāāin a whole new light?
