review 1: This book is the gay, written version of My Best Friend’s Wedding! Davis receives a phone call from his first, and only, true love Jack. He’s met someone and he’s getting married. This throws Davis for a loop because he’s always assumed he and Jack would one day find their way back together. With his best friend Deseree’s help (Deseree is the Grace to Davis’s Will), Davis makes over his boy next door image into something more sexy and irresistible and heads to Chicago to stop the wedding and win Jack back. Hijinks ensue!The story switches back and forth from the present to the past to show how Jack and Davis met, fell in love, their first time and a random passionate encounter they’d had just a year prior to these pending nuptials. Although parts of the story... more were a little far fetched, like Jack and Tadd meeting and deciding to get married after only a couple weeks, but the writing never faltered. Day managed to keep the story cohesive through flash backs, I really fell in love with Jack along with Davis, seeing him through Davis’s eyes. Although I loved the Dorothy of this story, Deseree, Alex really stole the show. He was sexy, funny, and witty with a wicked sense of humor topped off with that British accent just to make him all the more enticing. I could actually hear him speaking in his accent while reading! Davis has his share of steamy scenes with both his leading men, and events unfold throughout the story that will leave you wondering which one is going to steal the show? Jack his first love, or the enigmatic British playboy Alex? Overall this was a fun, quick, sexy read and I highly recommend it if you’re looking for a comedy of errors with some hot guy/guy action and that ever elusive happily ever after!*I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review*
review 2: Not the best Ethan Day book and I am not really sure if it was what I expected, however apart from Davis and Jack the characters were interesting and the main reason I managed to finish the book. Jack and Davis both annoyed the heck out of me and really they should have been gay 'sisters' rather than lovers from the start. At the outset of the relationship it appeared that Jack was more of a go-getter but obviously through the time the two spent together he became as wimpish as Davis.I suppose the moral of the story is to actually verbalise what you are thinking and wanting rather than it just going round in your head because if you don't you will lose what you desire anyway. less
