I tried really hard to like this one but it just didn't happen. I usually enjoy gay-for-you stories. I was happy with the fact that they didn't just fall into bed at the drop of a hat. It's just ... well it was this slowest moving story I've read in a long time. I actually started laughing every tim...

This is simply not readable. As in "written so badly it gave me a migraine." I was ready to DNF at around 10% but then, for research purpose only, managed - god, was it a struggle! - another 10%. No, it didn't get better. It got worse :/A guy with a migraine, a broken shoulder and on serious meds ...

I still love the characters and the story,but, and maybe it was just me, but this version felt, I dunno, disjointed somehow? Like the story was pulled apart, then parts put back together in the wrong o...

3.75It was a pretty standard gay romance, nothing special. Still, I enjoyed it a lot! And the ending was rather adorable.Recommended for a light, cute -- and definitely sexy -- read!

The title of this book suggests a story line and a level of conflict that is just not there. Hell, there is barely a story line at all. No conflict. No plot. The title doesn't even make sense until the last line of the book and it's more like 'srsly'? The first half of the book is UST, the second is...
