Shawn is single, twenty-nine, the full-time carer of his Alzheimer’s-stricken mother, and a frequent victim of Murphy’s Law—although his family calls it Shawn’s Law. Other than caring for mum, his day consists of painting nude men and spying on the guy who walks his dogs along the street every day at four o’clock. When Shawn takes a spectacular fall on his front steps, who is there to witness it other than the man of his dreams? Harley doesn’t believe in Shawn’s Law—but he soon changes his mind. The two men make it through a memorable first date and Shawn’s sexual insecurities to begin a relationship stumbling toward love. But when Shawn’s Law causes Harley to be injured, Shawn is determined to save Harley’s life the only way he knows how—by breaking up with him. Not once, but twice. Throw in a serial killer ex-boyfriend, several deadly Australian animals, two dogs called Bennie, a mother who forgets to wear clothes, an unforgiving Town Council, and a strawberry-flavored condom dolly, and Shawn’s Law is one for the books.

Kennett This book is going straight onto my 5 star + shelf.Its a brilliant book.Shawn has his own law. A bit like Murphy's law but only called Shawn's Law. If it can go wrong it will.Shawn has a difficult life. He lives with his mum who has Alzeheimers but every day at 4 he has to be outside to see Hippy Hotpants, the hot guy from down the street that he lusts after.I started laughing from the first pages and didnt stop until the last. From geese to reef sharks and octopuss, Shawn meets them all.If you dont read this book, there is seriously something wrong with you.I cant recommend it highly enough. Youll start it and wont put it down until the very last page.Just remember the kleenex as you will be laughing so hard tears will be streaming down your face.
4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Loved it!! By Melody J Renae Kaye has become an auto buy author for me and once again she brought the goods with Shawn's Law. Ms. Kaye writes quirky, funny, larger than life characters that I just can't get enough of.Shawn is worried that caring for his family and his tendency to fall into bad luck more than Murphy's law could ever explain is too much for any guy to want to take a chance on; let alone the hottie that walks his dogs by Shawn's house every day at 4. Harley finds Shawn to be sexy and charming and can't wait to go on a date with him. He doesn't believe in Shawn's Law and sets out to get to know Shawn better. After all, anyone can be bitten by a snake and fall down a flight of stairs...right? Wait, did someone say something about a cannibal...This book is relationship based; sweet, kooky, loving. There are a few mildly angsty moments but overall this is a fun, light read that handles some tougher topics - like caring for a parent with Alzheimer's - with the author's trademark humor and unconventional characters.I highly recommend this book - and if you haven't read anything else by this author make sure to check out Loving Jay and The Shearing Gun which are two of my favorite books!
6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Review by Barb By Hearts On Fire Reviews Shawn’s Law is synonymous with Murphy’s Law. In this case, Shawn and anyone in his vicinity are likely to witness any and all possibilities of things going wrong. He’s a sweet young gay man who is the principal caretaker for his mother who suffers from Alzheimer’s, but he’s on a first name basis with the local paramedics and hospital staff—the result of his many, varied, and bizarre accidents. Does he try to get in trouble deliberately? No. But does trouble seek him out? Yes! At least, that’s his take on it. His sister, Lisa, tries to point out that if those bizarre accidents and incidents hadn’t happened, the other people involved—his mother, his sister, and pedestrians on the street—would have been hurt worse or even killed. He just can’t grasp the same positivity, though.Shawn is twenty-nine and single without much hope of a permanent boyfriend or partner. He has such rotten luck with men that his last boyfriend was arrested as a serial killer while they were on their second date, and he hasn’t been with anyone since then. He does have a secret crush, though. Hippy-Hotpants is the guy who walks his dogs down the street past Shawn’s house every day at 4 p.m. and Shawn goes out of his way to find something to do in the front yard every day—until the day he trips and falls right in front of the man. From his perspective, he’s mortified, but from Harley’s perspective, he’s thrilled to have the chance to encounter the cute guy with the bubble-butt that he’s been trying to find a way to meet. Harley is, of course, Hippy-Hotpants and he takes advantage of the opportunity to get involved in Shawn’s life.Their relationship starts slowly, mostly because Shawn’s commitment is first and foremost to his mother’s care, but also because Shawn just doesn’t believe a hot guy like Harley could possibly find him attractive and he keeps shying away from Harley. Add in a few incidents/accidents and trips to the ER, and the roadblocks to anything long term for them sometimes seem insurmountable.The story is told from Harley’s POV looking back on the events that happened alternating with Shawn’s POV in real time, or at least it appears to be that way. I found it a bit confusing at first, but it was evident by Harley’s comments that the two were together. In a way, that was a bit of a spoiler for me. Even though this is M/M romance and we would hope for the HEA, it did make me uncomfortable—almost as if I flipped to the last page of the book before finishing the heart of the story.Over time, as the two start to form a relationship, Harley begins to understand why Shawn’s family calls it “Shawn’s Law” and he gets more than enough opportunity to experience it firsthand. Unfortunately, when he’s hurt due to what Shawn believes is Shawn’s fault, Shawn breaks up with him to keep him safe. Though they eventually get together again, there’s another major incident in which Harley loses his temper with Shawn, followed by Shawn’s irritation over the fact that Harley’s father is working in a town that Shawn is boycotting. Shawn decides that there’s no way he’ll meet Harley’s dad as long as he’s working in that town, so Harley goes out of his way to try to relocate his father’s business. I found both men’s behaviors in this situation more than odd. Shawn was acting like a spoiled brat, an action that didn’t seem to fit with the personality we were getting to know in the earlier pages of the book, and Harley not only giving in to Shawn’s pout but then taking steps to get his father relocated seemed a bit farfetched.Around that time, when the serial killer former boyfriend contacts Shawn, and Harley answers the phone, Shawn takes advantage of Harley’s jealousy to break up with him again. This is another area that was a bit confusing when it happened, because it came out of the blue. As far as readers were concerned Rory was just the name of the guy Shawn had dated two years before on the night he was arrested for murder, and we would assume that he wouldn’t be able to call Shawn from prison. The phone call was included in the story just for the breakup, and seemed contrived. Perhaps if readers had been given a bit more detail about how, when, and why Shawn started to allow Rory to call him, or if we knew in advance that he was taking calls from Rory, it wouldn’t have been as out of place.There were other issues that struck me as odd as well. After Harley and Shawn had broken up for the second time, Shawn is severely injured and is in the hospital. Harley accidentally discovers this when he goes to the hospital to visit someone else, but he’s not allowed to visit Shawn and is kicked out of Shawn’s room by all of Shawn’s nurse and paramedic friends. He not only accepts this, but then, during the next few weeks when Shawn really does need his help, Harley is suddenly not available because he’s traveling to Burma, China and India, fighting for human rights causes. Considering that he had been hanging out walking his dog past Shawn’s house for weeks, then dating Shawn for more weeks, why is he suddenly traveling all over the world during the weeks that Shawn could have really used his help?I feel like my thoughts are disorganized as I do this review, and I think it’s because I felt that way about the story. It just seemed scattered with several bizarre secondary plot lines that didn’t fit well. It almost feels like two separate authors wrote the story and then tried to mesh it together. I know that’s not true, but it’s the best way I can describe how I feel about the story.So, although I enjoyed some of the humor in the story and appreciated Shawn’s caretaking relationship with his mother, there were too many other odd circumstances to make me feel like this is a book that I’d highly recommend. I would, however, likely recommend it to fans of Renae Kaye, because there’s a lot they may like about the story, and I’d also recommend it to those who enjoy their MC being a bit of a klutz with some rather strange circumstances complicating his life, but that’s about it.
