Blurb: 

Two single dads.
Two headstrong teenagers.
One dead body.

A cabin in the middle of nowhere, nature all around, peace and serenity. It was supposed to be a vacation to help Nova reconnect with his son.
But he didn’t expect to fall for his neighbor in the cabin across the lake.
He didn’t expect an erratic and unusual broadcast on a radio station no longer in existence.
And he definitely didn’t expect a dead body in the water.

Mercy likes his mysteries to stay within the pages of his novels. When strange things start to happen at his summer cabin, he and his daughter team up with the man and his son on the other side of the lake to get to the bottom of it. A little amateur sleuthing won’t hurt anyone, right?

Someone out there knows the truth.
Who is the man on the radio?
What does he know?
Mercy and Nova are determined to solve the mystery, but are they willing to risk life and limb for answers? Because someone doesn’t want their secrets revealed. 

 **Radio Static is an MM romantic mystery involving two single dads in their midforties.**

My review:

Do you know that feeling when you can't put the book down no matter what? When you stay awake all night just because you have to know how it will end? When you haven't read a book in months until midnight, then comes Nicky James and this book?! 

Two single dad in the middle of nowhere with their boy and girl, best summer vacation am I right? One dad is gay, the other is bisexual, but not out to his son. Two teenagers without civilization and wifi, it was only a matter of time they get closer. 

Oh and I forgot to mention the dead body and a missed person of 30 years. Sounds awesome, right? ;) 

I just loved Nova and Mercy. Their personalities were so good, I loved that their first priority were the kids, but no matter what they tried to do, they just couldn't get their hands and eyes off of each other. The air was sizzling around them and I loved those little touches and the funny and flirty banter between them.

The romance isn't the first priority in this book, but let me tell you, it has WAY MORE romance in it then some other books. With only one sex scene and a handjob, a couple of kisses, and that's it. But the emotions behind the words! Oh god. That's my favorite thing about Nicky's books, the strong emotions behind the pages. You don't want to miss or skip anything while reading. 

The mystery was so good an interesting. I couldn't tell who the bad guy was and wasn't prepared what would happen in the end. It was mind blowing and so good. 

I enjoyed this book so much. Nova and Mercy together, ahh, love them!
