A Fragile Love
A Fragile Love - Les Joseph

Oh yeah, I really enjoyed Adam and Peter's story!

It's an out-for-you, established couple story - which by the way isn't exactly my favorite trope. BUT, this one had a very interesting approach. In the beginning, all we know is that there was one big coming out, as in for the WHOLE world to see, and a very dramatic event, that brought both of these guys to their senses.

I loved all the little touches and details that made this story so good. A word here, a tear there, some mystery until the very end - it all worked for me. Especially because it wasn't predictable. There isn't this "big bad misunderstanding" that tore the two lovers apart. It's more complicated and also a lot easier than that at the same time. Very good, very heart-warming und definitely a recommendation to everyone who loves to read about couples clearing the air, surviving a big bump in the road and coming out on the other end, united and stronger than ever.

Carte Blanche
Carte Blanche - Nash Summers

4 stars for 50 pages warming my heart


Jude, suffering from social anxiety and OCD, is severely limited in his everyday life. Cleaning with bleach is his life line, not having unnecessary contact with the world outside his apartment his crutch. Enter Devin, the new guy next door dead set on getting to know recluse Jude.

There is so much sweetness and heart-warming happening in this story, it broke my heart and put it back together in only 50 pages. Was the road a little too easy? Maybe. And in a way Devin's motives were not really clear. I mean, yes, he liked Jude. But in order to develop deep feelings for a guy you can't even have a regular conversation with, you might need a little more? Maybe? But I guess, that's where the magic of the story actually lies. I loved it despite my little niggles - so who cares? 4 stars and definitely a recommendation for all romantics out there.
