A Novel in The Tav series
Davo’s a pretty average guy. He has a decent job, owns his own home, and spends his weekends at the pub. He fully accepts that he’s gay, but doesn’t want to be one of those gays who are girly. He likes football and other masculine pursuits, and firmly avoids anything that could be seen as femme—including relationships that last beyond fifteen minutes.
Then Davo’s friend and gay idol not only gets a boyfriend, but also adopts a baby girl. Davo is seriously spooked and scuttles down to the pub. That’s where he meets Lee, cute from her cherry-red hair to her pretty little dress and pointy red shoes. Davo is charmed—but how is that possible? He’s gay. Isn’t he? Then Lee tells him he’s actually a guy—he just likes to wear women’s dresses occasionally. Thoroughly confused about an attraction that’s out of character for him, Davo begins the long journey to where he can accept himself without caring what everyone else thinks.

Another light, fun, romance from Renae Kaye.
By Sinfully
This was another light, fun, romance from Renae Kaye. It works as a standalone, but if you’ve read The Blinding Light, you will be happy to know that Patrick and Jake are back and have plenty of page time along with Lee and Davo.
Davo likes being gay, is out to his family, but he doesn’t want people to be able to tell he’s gay by looking at him. His dislike of all things “girly” – even on Jake and Patrick’s baby girl – also has him rationalizing that relationships are girly, therefore not for him. This aversion doesn’t actually extend to women though. In fact he has an unexplainable, almost immediate attraction to Lee, when he believes Lee to be a woman. He even fears that Lee is turning him straight. When Lee comes clean about his gender, Davo is more upset by the fact that Lee told him a lie, not what the lie was about.
Davo confused me a bit at the start and came off as an ass. I wasn’t sure if he was a misogynist, a femme shamer, a good guy or a bad guy. That didn’t last too long. Davo isn’t a bad guy, he’s just a man who had an idea planted in his head when he was young and twenty years later, has had no reason to change. Now Lee comes along and Lee is that reason.
Lee is a sweetheart. He is smart, easygoing, works at a Drop-In Center for LGBTQ teens and sometimes likes to wear dresses. He feels bad about having misled Davo so when he calls in a panic for help babysitting, Lee is there for him. Lee really has his eyes opened to Davo’s neuroses and wonders if Davo is actually a gay homophobe. Lee quickly sees through Davo’s insensitive remarks and is committed to opening his eyes, by bartering for a guarantee of three future dates to work with.
The two MC’s have a sizzling sexual tension between them and get along very well. Their conversations are both humorous and eye opening as is Davo’s reliance on his trusted oracle, Mr. Magic 8 Ball. I really enjoyed watching Lee break down Davo’s barriers from PDA, being seen with a man in makeup, attending an obviously gay event and even Davo caring about his partner’s pleasure in bed. I never knew what Lee was going to try next. When Davo finally gets up the nerve to test the biggest barrier in their relationship, Lee’s cross dressing, it ends in one of the hottest striptease and sex scenes I’ve read.
In addition to the support of Patrick and Jake, both men have accepting and loving families, which is always great to see. In fact, Lee’s mother Charlotte has an awesome mama bear protecting her cub moment that had me cheering out loud.
As much as I loved the characters and enjoyed the story, there is something that occurs towards the end of the story that has been bothering me since I finished the book.
There is a scene of an attempted sexual assault that plays out. At no time during or after the incident is there any discussion of bringing in the police or filing a report even with the knowledge that this was at least the third such attack by this person. I’m not offended by the plot point itself, but it didn’t feel true to the way I expected the characters to act, especially in light of Lee’s job helping teens who are so at risk for abuse and assault.
With that being said, it doesn’t negate the fact that I thoroughly enjoyed the rest of the book. Renae Kaye writes books that always entertain and turn up the heat and this was no different. I thought the epilogue, with Davo’s gift to baby Maxine was particularly sweet and did a great job of bringing Davo’s story full circle.

A brilliant story of self discovery and acceptance.
By Janice Birnie
Renae Kaye writes highly original, thought provoking books that are often funny to the point of having to stop reading to catch your breath. You Are the Reason is the story of Davo, a gay man who was damaged in his youth to the point that he believes he can only be, and date, one type of gay man, masculine, strong and definitely not in any way 'girly'. Imagine his surprise at finding himself attracted to a woman! When that woman turns out to be a gay man, Davo embarks on a journey to self acceptance with the help of Lee, a gay man who happens to love dresses, and his friends Patrick and Jake. Davo's journey is fraught with missteps and laugh out loud moments, but also sweet moments and revelations, as he begins to understand that love can come when we least expect it and that strength and masculinity can come in many forms, including gorgeous men in dresses. As with all Renae's books I found this impossible to put down and I was left smiling for hours after I finished.

Well-intentioned
By lala-lately
Love the author, but not this book. I hate to leave an unfavorable review for an author whose previous books were all amazing, but there were a few things that made this one different--a major obstacle is that it reads like a PSA for gender-queer/transgender education. Great as a general theme, but terribly preachy in tone and a little too "convenient" as far as this story went. For instance, there were characters that were introduced and then never heard from again, seemingly introduced just to show that transgendered can be men OR women. There were "good" characters who demonstrated proper thinking and, "bad" characters who were judgmental or, in some cases, malicious. All very black and white, all immediately obvious to the reader rather than shown through nuance.
Another issue I had was that there is minimal conflict, and no angst. For some people this might be a benefit but to me "smooth sailing" story lines are not all that interesting and they make character growth seem less credible. Here, many of the characters are familiar from Blinding Light, but in this book they came across as one dimensional. Davo did a complete 180 in his way of thinking but he didn't have to work very hard to get there. In fact, all he had to do was meet Lee, this one amazing guy, and then BOOM, a lifetime of negative thinking is changed in a matter of weeks. Willing suspension of disbelief would normally make this more acceptable, but in context with everything else, I just couldn't get there.
**Spoiler alert: There was also a really bizarre point of conflict dealing with an over the top female rapist that came and went in like 5 pages. It was so odd in the overall context of the story as to seem wholly random. Maybe it's a setup for a book 3, but either way, I was left scratching my head and wondering what the takeaway was. It's also an example of the preachy tone I mentioned above because it felt like the whole point of that really brief and disconnected encounter was to point out to readers that women can be crazy and violate men sexually which is weird bc if you're reading m/m fiction you're likely more open minded than the public at large anyway, and even if not, I don't know that there's any great need to point out that rapists come in all genders as part of this particular story. Very strange choice.***
Despite my lackluster review, I loved all of Kaye's prior books. Loving Jaye is one of my absolute favorites and I reccomend it as book that deals with femme men and gender queer protagonists in a way that is organic and fun to read. This book, in contrast, was a little too try-hard for me to get into it. The author's heart is in the right place, but ultimately this isn't going to be a book I come back to.
That said, I still say give it a whirl. Different readers respond to different things and Renae Kaye is a very good writer. Even though this didn't work for me, I can see how it might appeal to others, especially if you're looking for low tension non-angsty romance with a feel good vibe.
