Order now and receive the DELUXE LIMITED EDITION―featuring sprayed edges with stenciled artwork―while supplies last.
They never even wanted to be stepbrothers―but now, in front of the camera, they’re getting much closer―in this edgy, emotional story of forbidden passion.
Avi’s into old-school emo bands, true crime, and cryptids. And if not many others share his interests, he’s cool with that, as long as he doesn’t run out of weed. But then he moves from Brooklyn to Boston with his mom, which isn’t a big deal . . . until she announces she’s seeing someone and he happens to have a son Avi’s age.
As his mom’s relationship gets more serious, they all move in together, and under the same roof as his future stepbrother, Avi’s never felt more out of place. Kyran’s everything Avi isn’t: athletic, popular, supremely confident―and undeniably hot. The only thing the two have in common is their opposition to officially becoming related. Oh, and they’re both entering their freshman year at the same college.
At first, they’re hopeful their very different social circles will minimize any on-campus encounters. But the more they try to avoid each other, the more a sizzling tension blazes up between the quirky artist and the control-freak quarterback with a traumatic past. Then, just when they think things can’t get any worse, a family financial collapse leads the desperate pair to collab on a little content creation.
Behind closed doors, Avi and Kyran start making illicit videos that quickly bring in a steady stream of money―and wildly thirsty comments. But it’s strictly a business partnership to pay for school . . . Isn’t it? With their deepest secrets and desires stirring as they begin to rely on each other both on and off camera, they’ll be forced to ask themselves: Are they really only doing it for the fans?
This edition includes a signed letter from the author and a bonus scene.
For the Fans is a full-length, standalone MM forbidden romance with an HEA. It contains sensitive subject matter that could make some readers uncomfortable and is intended for adults.

This book was EVERYTHING
I would first like to start out by saying that this book came highly recommended to me by MULTIPLE people. Seriously, even on Bookstagram, people were telling me it was a “must read”. Everyone talked about how much they loved Avi and Kyran’s story and how HOT this book was. I wholeheartedly agree with those statements…HOWEVER, one thing I am so disappointed in, is how NO ONE mentions how deep and emotional this story is. Here are my thoughts:Kyran is our HGB (iykyk 😉), who off the bat hates Avi upon meeting him and harbors (pun intended) some strong hatred and feelings for Avi. You see right off the bat, that he has a strained relationship with his dad. To those who have never experienced trauma or don’t have any sort of experience with it personally or with a family, friend/loved one, it’s easy to miss the signs. What baffles me is how LOUD these signs were but most people kept skipping over it to get to the hate/sexual tension/hot s*x that these men had.There are legit very prominent clues as to the status of Kyran’s mental health and the fact that he endured such horrible trauma. I legit highlighted almost every single clue Nyla left in the book. So to hear “how hot this book was” and that’s all people have to say, really makes me mad, because this book was so much more than that. Kyran’s personal growth, acceptance, and even his struggle was beautiful. It was raw, it was real. It was pretty much what I look for when you have a very heavy mental health Rep in a book.My favorite part? No, it wasn’t the spice (shocker- though it was delicious). It’s the fact that Nyla showed you LOVE DOES NOT CURE ALL. Kyran did what was necessary to get the help he needed and even then, Avi accepted and KNEW that Kyran wasn’t “fixed”, that he would still struggle and you know what this man decided? THAT HE WOULD LOVE HIM THROUGH IT ALL. That’s what makes an epic love story. That’s what makes me want to scream with happiness. They got their HEA but it was REALISTIC and I am HERE FOR IT.Avi is our nerdy, artistic emo who feels lost in life. He has no direction. Instead of getting serious about it, he hid behind the facade of jokes and humor. He was truly so insecure that it broke my heart for him. His love with Kyran shaped who he was and in turn, he found himself. He stood true to himself in all ways, and also helped to tear down that brick wall that Ky built so high. While tearing down his walls, he slowly realized that he was also tearing down his own, allowing Ky to see a rare vulnerability in him as well.Their story was EVERYTHING to me. My heart broke for both of these broken boys. I cried, laughed, and became one of their fans. The spice was delicious but the emotional impact is really what sold this to me. The fact that it’s glossed over by so many readers makes me so sad.Thank you Nyla for an amazing story. This has been promoted to a comfort read and one of my fav reads this year (so far). Aviel and Kyran have a permanent spot in my heart and will live rent free in my head.

STEAMY wasn’t prepared
When I saw how long this book was I was skeptical. I knew it was gonna be a spicy read, but I was not prepared. A lot of times spice get gratuitous for me and I just do not care, but Nyla kept it fresh is more ways than one. This book was straight up filthy. Even though this book is a thick one, I never felt bored reading it. Pacing was good and the build up is done well. I also appreciate we get a VERY thorough HEA.Where this book was losing me was the following:- some of the lingo used was so bad it felt like a violation of the Geneva conventions- So I appreciate the rehashing of the evolution of their relationship, but the dialog between the MMCs is giving 13 year olds in love. Very immature??? Idk- this book has some heavy themes, and I feel like they’re generally executed well and add to the story, but I didn’t really need the whole philosophical/religious angle. It just felt fluffy.- speaking of fluffy, some of this book could’ve been condensed

Raw. Intense. Emotional. SPICY!!!
18+ MM Romance⚠️read the trigger warnings!!⚠️I have no words. I cannot express what this book did to me, but I will try my best. I haven’t had a 5 star read in a while and this one knocked it out of the park. I have not felt this many emotions erupt from me all at once in a long time. This book was so incredibly beautiful. I went into it looking for some spicy time, but I came out (no pun intended) with a whole heart, bleeding incredible amounts of love, heartbreak, and joy.Avi is the artsy, stoner kid, and Kyran is your stereotypical, preppy quarterback who is just a straight-up a-hole who absolutely despises Avi. Avi’s mom gets with Kyran’s dad, making them step-brothers who couldn’t hate each other more. They end up going to the same college, and Kyran is absolutely livid about it. When their parent’s financial security goes down the drain, they both have to find a way to make money to stay in college. Avi’s friend convinces him to start an OF (something she has also been doing to make ends meet). It begins as a solo account until Kyran, supposedly the straightest man on campus, desperately needs money to stay at school and pursue his goal of making the NFL, gets involved. But remember, it’s for the fans, right?Kyran is a pretty stubborn guy, so he’s ignoring the undeniable chemistry between him and Avi for a good portion of the book. But even the fans can see it’s more than just “videos.”It’s raw, intense, emotional, and just downright steamy. I’d subscribe in a heartbeat.”Each time we’re together, it gets deeper. More intense, more staggering, more… beautiful. More terrifying.”Like I said before, the chemistry is absolutely magical, and the banter is delicious. I don’t think I have ever read a book with chemistry like theirs. It’s a slow-burning candle, realistic and scorching HOT. They couldn’t be more opposite, but they fit together like perfect puzzle pieces. Both of their inner monologues are absolutely hilarious, and each chapter starts off with a username and comment that went under their OF account which are also absolutely HILARIOUS 😂”Baby, you’re ruining me…””Now you know how I feel.”I understand how the length of this book might seem intimidating, but each page was necessary. The amount of background, spice, character development, and healing is beautifully written, and it wouldn’t have been as incredible if it was any shorter. I actually wish it was longer. I don’t want to let these characters go. Going from being at each other’s throats 24/7to being so incredibly inseparable is fantastic.”I’m like… stupidly in love with you.” “Baby… I’m f—-ing moronically in love with you.”I fell in love with both of them and am absolutely obsessed with their love story. I cannot recommend this book enough. It was such an intense emotional rollercoaster, full of banter, lots of laughs, and I loved every heckin second of it. I want to read it all over again. Like I said, there aren’t words to describe what this book did to me.Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️/5Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Okay, listen… Guty and Zeb need to get together in the future. I see some chemistry there already, in case the author plans to write more books in this Universe.4.8 stars kind of sounds ridiculous 😅 I know, but I don’t know something is just stopping me from giving 5 stars, but I am not going to think too much to find any flaws if its not too obvious. So, I will talk about the good stuff…1) For anyone who is looking to start dark romance, just dip your toes in it. Then, I think this would be a good place to start. While what happens to a character in this isn’t anything light, it’s not shown on page. They have a traumatic past and currently they’re shown dealing with it in their own way. The story has light búllyíng as well, but nothing graphic.2) It has good LGBTQIA+ rep, gay/bi awakening done well. I liked that though this book had spice it was written in a way to connect us with the characters emotions better. With every interaction between them, we got to see them understand themselves better.3) The friends group is my favorite! 😊🥰 They were absolute fun. I am hoping the author writes stories about them as well (Zeb/Guty, Theo/Coach/Bea?, I hope Micah and Frankie find someone too) Everytime one of them appeared in a scene, I was smiling…. Ooh, how can I forget!? Robin! 🐈🥰 So sweet.4) In addition, this was also a sports romance (specifically, football). So, for all the football fans this focuses a good chunk of it on the sport.. … and if you are not a fan, still try it because Avi will make you laugh with his Eagle dance 😄 No, seriously…. I love Avi’s character from page one. Kyran took time for me to like him, but once you realise he is just like a wounded wild animal that’s lashing out on anyone that wants to help him, you understand him better. I love that the MMCs didnt have some cookie cut personalities… because, in this the emo guy was the happy, confident one while the jock was inexperienced, confused and with trauma.Like I said, I love all the characters.5) Also, for those who like slow burn, h@te to love romances this is for you. And, for those who usually don’t like step sibling romances, they should give this a try because Avi and Kyran don’t grow up together. They only meet when they’re in high school but even they try to stay clear of each other because they despise each other from the start. They also run in different circles. Nothing really happens until they’re in second year of college.I am glad I finally decided to read this book.

Fazia tempo que eu não lia uma história tão intrigante. Maravilhoso de bom, amei muito Kyran e Aviel !! Uma história que tem uma carga emocional, mas foi tão deliciosa de ler…🔥🔥 Torcer pelo final feliz de duas pessoas que são apenas personagens, porém queria que eles existissem de tão perfeitos que são!! 😍😍😍

La mère d’Aviel a épousé le père de Kyran et entre les deux demi-frères, c’est la guerre. Ils se détestent viscéralement et quand ils vont à l’université de Boston ensembles, ils font tout pour s’éviter. Mais le père de Kyran qui finançait les études des garçons fait faillite et ils doivent trouver un moyen de payer leur scolarité rapidement…Ça a été une excellente lecture et je suis super contente que @editions_bookmark aient annoncé qu’ils allaient le publier en français à la rentrée 2024 ! ✨ Il faut que vous rencontriez Avi & Kyran, et promis, vous en serez fans 😏💗Kyran, c’est la superstar : quarterback de l’équipe de football 🏈, il sort avec des pompoms girls pas farouche, il a de très bonnes notes… mais sous la carapace du gars populaire se cache un garçon peu sûr de lui et qui en a bavé.Avi c’est le mec style émo / artiste qui peint ses ongles en noir et qui fume des joints.Entre les 2 frangins, chaque rencontre est explosive💥Mais toute cette tension devient fort utile quand Avi propose à son demi-frère d’ouvrir un OnlyFans afin de payer les frais d’université. Les scènes de cul sont nombreuses mais surtout très émoustillantes et ultra hooot🔥For The Fans est un excellent enemies to lovers. L’alchimie entre Ky & Avi est palpable, et leur évolution de la haine à l’amour se fait de manière progressive et cohérente. La tension sexuelle entre eux est à couper au couteau et quand elle se libère…🤤❤️🔥💥🔥Bien qu’on soit dans une romance plutôt érotique, les émotions ne sont pas en restent. Il y a une véritable histoire derrière les scènes porno « pour les fans » et les sentiments se révèlent crescendo♥️L’histoire autour du passé de Kyran n’était peut-être pas nécessaire à mon goût (un peu trop drama) Mais n’empêche que Ky est vraiment mon personnage chouchou du roman🥰Vous l’aurez compris, j’ai adoré et j’ai vraiment super hâte de pouvoir le redécouvrir en français prochainement 😊
