review 1: There are a lot of ways to "live the dream." Living a creative life often means measuring your success by different standards--and knowing that society is holding you to the shiniest of them.But what if the creative life you want isn't Hollywood shiny? What if it's wind-honed earth and wildflowers and a lover who looks at you as if you're the shiniest thing he's ever seen? What if he thinks you deserve Hollywood shiny and fears he's holding you back?This is Johnny's story, as told by Raine. And it's lovely.
review 2: 3.5 stars--This was a sweet story about family and love. Raine was very close to his father. Otherwise, he was a bit of a loner--interested in one night stands but nothing more serious. Johnny, nine years younger, enters and Raine finds himself wan
... moreting things he's never really considered before. Although he becomes convinced that Johnny is "the one" for him, he refuses to trap Johnny into an unfulfilling, plain life in the middle of nowhere--not when Johnny has so much talent and is destined for better things. It breaks his heart to encourage Johnny to leave and follow his dreams, and Johnny, in an effort to please Raine, leaves. For a HEA to occur, Raine needs to see that true love offers Johnny more happiness that a "successful career," and Johnny needs to stand up for what he really wants.There is, of course, a HEA. Although I liked the book, I didn't love it. I never felt compelled to get back to it once I'd taken a break. The whole thing seemed a bit loose to me. I'm not quite sure what it was--it is a nice story, and the MCs are appealing, as are the secondary characters. For me, it was good, but far from great. less
