While revisiting much-loved characters can leave fans feeling warm and fuzzy, this material would have been better off as a series of bonus stories rather than a full-length continuation of Luc and Oliver’s relationship. It never feels like the couple is in any real danger of splitting up, though, which raises the question of why they needed a sequel at all. Luc and his issues take more of the focus, as he hems and haws over proposing to Oliver-especially after a terrible ex-boyfriend announces his own engagement. From running into old exes to dealing with their sneaky feelings of grief, Luc and Oliver will have their work cut out for them if they're going to make it through with their relationship intact. Now, with several wedding celebrations on their social calendar and an unexpected funeral to contend with, the couple is put into a pressure cooker of stressful situations. There's still an opposites-attract push and pull between them, but they've found a way to balance each other out. Two years after the events of that book, reformed bad boy Luc O’Donnell and Oliver Blackwood, his buttoned-up barrister boyfriend, have settled into something resembling domestic bliss. A London couple navigates the highs and lows of weddings and even a funeral in this sequel to Boyfriend Material (2020).
