I love the interconnected universe and how my beloved characters appear in other books.īut let’s talk about the story… the title says it all! It all starts with a blind date dating disaster between Marshall and Felix that throws them off guard…especially now that they’re roommates too.īut we can see how a first impression can morph into something completely different when you really try to get to know the other person. Our other main character is Marshall, our beloved Robbie’s little brother from Frat Wars: Master of Mayhem, part of Saxon’s college fraternity romance series. One of our MCs is Felix, whom we first met as the son of one of the MCs in Platonic Rulebook, an ongoing college freshman, part of Saxon’s ongoing Divorced.Men’s Club series. The second point, not yet related to the story itself, is deserved because not only does this story fit perfectly into the series, but also into the intertwined universe created by Saxon and Eden Finley’s other books (the Sadenverses, like me recognized it). So a point for this book goes straight away for simply existing in the series!

Many of my favorite M/M romance writers contribute to this series and one of them is Saxon James with this hilarious book, Dating Disaster! When I first heard about the Franklin U series (a multi-author M/M college romance series set in the same location and timeline), I was beyond excited. There are many assumptions throughout the book that occur between the characters that definitely could have been avoided but made for a wonderful read. The next morning, Felix wakes up to the shocking and frightening fact that his blind date Marshall is now his new roommate.

It begins with the two going on a blind date arranged by Marshall’s best friend.ĭue to misunderstandings, the date becomes a problem and ends too early. It features Felix, the son of Griff from Platonic Rulebook, and Marshall, the not-so-little brother of Robbie from Frat Wars: Master of Mayhem. The Dating Disaster is the second book release in the Franklin U series to be written by multiple authors.
