Hitman's Creed

review 1: This was an okay story about a retired hitman who gets himself dragged into the problems of a local young man and his mother when it appears her ex-husband, who escaped custody years ago for attempting to murder his girlfriend seems to be after her again. Being 13 years older than Joey is a major hurdle for Glenn, also that he's a hitman and Joey wants to be a cop. Not very compatible. After taking care of the ex and being shot in the process, Glenn decides to vanish in order to "save" Joey from chasing after him. When he comes back 2 years later, having redeemed himself by now being a government hitman (is that any better?) they end up together. There is virtually no time on the page with them as a couple. There is some flirting and innuendo at the beginning but they don'... moret kiss until near the end, let alone have a relationship. I also thought that Joey's mother talking to him because she didn't want her son hurt was kind of creepy. If my 21 year old daughter was lusting after a guy and I was worried about her being hurt, SHE'D be the one I talked to, not the guy. That's just creepy to me to interfere in your child's love life at that age. 16 yes. Nearly 22? No. Back off and let them make their own mistakes. You can't save someone from never having a broken heart. But that's a personal thing for me. Other probably never even thought twice about it. And she was nice about it, not bitchy, still, it was kind of awkward IMHO.
review 2: The plot was interesting and pulling. I really liked all characters in this story, they were all positive. I admit, I was surprised about the platonic relationship between Glenn and Joey, even if their emotions flown deeper. I mean there was this longing and caring between them till the end. And I'm sure that an epilogue at the end, with at list sex scene, wouldn't hurt. I really missed that. But in general I truly enjoyed this story. less
