review 1: Knowing it's a short story I didn't go into this with great expectations of a deep emotional connection.I've got to admit that I didn't feel any emotional connection at all. I did however, feel all tingly and hot from the yummy erotic scenes. The story was interesting, but I wasn't a fan of the end. If Hunter could slip up that easily, how had he never done so before? And the introduction of the other 2 characters during the main MCs most intimate and built up to moment kinda spoiled it for me.After reading reviews for book 2 and it's similarity to this, I think I'll wait to read that for a moment I'm after a quick unemotional fix.
review 2: I am not often this harsh, but this one deserves it: This was a waste of a cover. The author either needs to go learn how
... more to write, or just stop altogether.Problems:- The lack of details in the writing. What game is Hunter even playing? They're in college, or so the reader assumes. There's never any mention of where they are, and the only solid indication they're not in high school is one mention of their major.- Why do they keep crying? Sex must be really depressing. They cry when they can't have sex. They cry when they're having sex. And then they start angsting over a big dick, like WTF? That's the source of conflict, really? These are obviously saintly college boys who've never once stumbled on fisting. Jesus.-The way Hunter accidentally kissed Avery in front of their visitors is so unrealistic I had to read it thrice just to be sure. They've been together for what? A few months? Weeks? Again, we don't know because the author mentions nothing. And he's so used to kissing him after years of angsting about it private? Okay, totally believable. Not.The prose was terrible in this one. I feel like I'm demeaning all the other books I gave one star to just by giving this book one star. It's a waste of 80 pages and a decent cover. The writing was so vague and open-ended, it sounds like a draft instead of an actual book. The angst is unbelievable and handled with the maturity of a 13-year-old. Really, just go back to fanfic and stop wasting our time. less

The only issue here is the length. It needed to be longer...
