Narration sounded made Theo sound as if he was a constant state of crying or recovering from a good sob. Was more annoying then not. Theo came off as overly emotional but then again he was grieving quite heavily.The back and forth with Theo's emotional state was insightful but I just didn't like th...

First let me warn others not to read this if you are sad or in a lonely mood. It will kill you. I started it three times waiting for the perfect moment and I'm glad I did.Con Riley told the most wonderfully simple story that was full of heart, emotion and real-life pain without being overly angsty o...

I'm so glad to have been wrecked by this train...Mmmm, okay. I must admit this book was nothing I expected. After some time reading the same genre it's only logical I recognize the same pattern again and again. There is a guy, there is another guy. They fall in love. The end. That mathematical schem...

He also chats with Morgan online, but it's really not all that interesting, and I didn't real...

4.75 stars . It was interesting experience reading this book, after reading so many books in the MM genre they usually all feel the same very predictable with an obvious HEA in the end, this book however was a journey to the unknown till 70% I had now clue who Theo will pair with, and all along the ...

A very nice and moving story, despite some flaws. Theo, the MC, tries to recover from the sudden loss of his partner Ben. Through his friendship with Morgan, met online, Theo slowly manages to emerge from pain and despair.I love Con Riley’s writing style, the way she manages to go back and forth in...
