ABOUT THE BOOK:
What is the true nature of the relationship between the guitarist and bassist of the world-famous rock band, Caffeine Daydreams?
Kai
I should be happy.
My childhood best friend and I are living our wildest dream—making music and touring the world as famous rock stars. I’ve got everything I could wish for.
Except him.
I’ll never have Silas. Not the way I want.
Our onstage behaviour gives fans a lot to speculate over, but it’s only an act.
The truth is, I die inside every time we touch. It might be pretend for Silas, but for me, it’s a constant reminder that I can’t have him the way I truly desire.
Then, a moment onstage leads me to a breaking point, and I can’t bear the heartache any longer.
I need to find a way to only see Silas as a friend before I lose our friendship, and him, forever.
Silas
My life is split into two chapters.
Before Kai and After Kai.
My childhood was a nightmare. A darkness I carried alone. But everything became brighter when I met Kai. He took me into his life, his family, his home.
Kai is more than my best friend. He’s my everything.
Some people think our relationship is odd…that it’s unusual for two friends to be as close as we are.
But everything about us makes sense.
At least, that’s what I believed.
When an onstage moment shines a light on the cracks in our foundation, my eyes are opened to a truth that’s been right in front of me the entire time.
A truth I want to explore.
But it’s too late. Just when I’m ready for more, Kai’s moving on.
One thing’s for sure; I’m not giving up.
No matter the risks.
Green Light is a bi-awakening, best friends-to-lovers MM rockstar romance. The second in the Caffeine Daydreams series, each book will follow a different couple as they find their HEA. Although better read in order, these books can stand alone.
Trigger Warning: Cancer (not main characters), references to past physical and emotional child abuse, racism, bullying (not between main characters)

Green Light by Lark Taylor
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Silas, abused at home, Kai and his family became his safe place. Kai was young when he realized Silas was his, even if Silas didn’t feel the same.. They were each half of the other, but for Kai, Silas was so much more. As they became rockstars that never changed. “sometimes it’s better to have the pain than nothing at all.”
This was major angst served with a side of angst. I was ready to give up on this book when they finally decided to “talk”. I like angsty books but this was getting painful. Once it settled into a mutual romance (with a few hiccups) I definitely started enjoying it more.
I like the author. They create a lot of depth for their characters. I appreciate that even though the angst was heavy it didn’t inhibit character growth. Kai’s family was special.
I haven’t read the first book in the series but don’t feel that it’s necessary to enjoy this one.
