review 1: 4.5 stars. This was a well-written, fast read, with a very nice little twist at the end. The three characters here were a study in contrasts working together. Cory is a computer technician and motor-cycle enthusiast. Ever since Tristan befriended him in first grade, he's loved Tristan and tried to be there for him. Cory is sensible, sweet, a bit quiet, and unaware of his own qualities. Just turned 21, he's smart in a very practical way, and only has eyes for Tristan.Tristan is blond, pretty, verbal and emotional, and in the midst of applying to med school with all the stresses that go with it. His childhood with an abusive father and a down-trodden mother, and the associated violence, has left its mark in ways large and small. He has a temper, and his deepest fear is ... morebecoming like his own father. His love for Cory is deep, but always tinged by a hint of anxiety from years spent watching a really bad marriage dissolve in bloodshed. Sam is ten years older, and the owner of a motorcycle store. He's a steady man, bisexual, and just beginning to think about dating after the departure of the woman he thought he would marry two years earlier. He meets Cory and Tristan separately, and gently hits on both of them without success. He becomes friends with both of the young men and wouldn't think of coming between them, although his attraction lingers. But when Cory and Tristan are separated by a fight, and the lingering fears and scars both of them carry from Tristan's youth keep them estranged, Sam yearns to care for both of them. Unfortunately Cory is keeping his distance, while Tristan has a crisis, and suddenly needs Sam's help... This was sweet but not too saccharine, emotional but not angsty, and a fun read.
review 2: Omg, I wanted to beat Tristan upside his stubborn head over and over and over again. His dad f'ed him up so badly and as much as he annoyed me, i still want to protect him. Cory was a saint. At first I wanted him to walk away but quickly realized that they needed help. They would only be happy together, but what can you do when you don't trust yourself?I was really hurting for Sam. He deserved happiness more than most and sacrificed his own for Tristan and Cory. I wasn't on board with the menage at first...even though it was pretty hot, but when it was just a short term deal with end result being a HEA for Tristan and Cory...and Sam getting his...I was happy too. less
