review 1: It is so strange to realize how hard you have to work sometimes to avoid turning into the person you don't want to be. Aaron and Matt both have fathers who are better off avoided, yet both fear being just like them. The story is sweet and fairly uncomplicated (and Bernie the cat is adorable). There is a betrayal, but it is pretty minimal, and you kind of see it coming beforehand. The two are just sweet together, and you want them to be happy.
review 2: Model Student was an incredibly sweet, feel-good read, that left me smiling.Aaron Stevens is 20 years-old, a sophomore at New York University and a catalog model. Matt Carson is also 20 years-old, from Wisconsin and a junior journalism student at Columbia University. The two young men meet at a photo shoot Aa
... moreron is doing. Matt has a project for school he's working on, that's on high-profile occupations in New York and he would like to interview Aaron about being a model and gain some insight into the modeling industry.Matt and Aaron end up going for coffee to discuss the project and eventually make their way from the coffee shop to the park, where each of them divulge a little about themselves and their pasts. Neither of them have had a perfect life, they both have skeletons in their closets, more of which are reveled as the story progresses, but they get along well together, they mesh, and what was suppose to be an interview evolves into a date.They meet few more times, making one another dinner and growing closer, when Aaron discovers that Matt wasn't exactly upfront with him when they initially met. In fact, he was downright deceptive about a few things and he may have been planning to come clean eventually, but Aaron learns of his duplicity from Jamie, Matt's roommate, which only seems to exacerbate the betrayal. Jamie assumed that Matt had already told Aaron the truth, but unfortunately he hadn't and Aaron is hurt and livid over the deceit. Matt didn't mean Aaron any harm by lying to him, he was simply desperate to get close to him, but that doesn't change the fact that Aaron was hurt by his actions and the two men need to come to terms with what was done and fess up about their feelings for one another if they want a chance at a future together.This was a delightful story to read; one with young love, forgiveness and a happy ending. I look forward to reading more from this new author. less
