review 1: The first part of this very short romance is nearly perfect.Joe makes a wonderful POV bearer and Ms Shiloh makes a wonderfully outlined character out of him.When the POV shifts to Tate, halfway through, things get a little stickier.The author loses part of her control over a narration that feels slightly didactic, with the narrator taking over Tate's thoughts at times. Things also happen too fast while more pages could have allowed a better development.All in all this is a nice story with two loveable leads, but it could stand a revision.
review 2: A sweet coming of age romance.Broken and alone after losing his job, the one place where he had felt some measure of acceptance, twenty year old Tate has lost what little remained of his self confidence. Unsure of hi... mores place in the world, a chance encounter with Joe, is the miracle Tate needed to help him rediscover himself and start a new life.Joe can't help but be drawn to the broken young man he rescued one night by chance. Determined to resist the attraction he feels for his younger roommate, the form a bond of friendship over the summer that just feels right.When the summer is over the two young men go their separate ways, but the feelings each hold for the other cannot be denied and only time will tell if the time they spent apart will cause their attraction to fade, or if absence truly does make the heart grow fonder.A contemporary young adult romantic short story: Joe & Tate is a heartwarming tale about growing up, learning to love, and finding acceptance. less
