review 1: Oh how I love reading about characters over thirty. So this was a real treat, main characters in their mid-forties, healthy and kinky....yummy! They’re already in an established relationship without much angst. Watching Gunny & Mac press on into retirement from the armed forces was interesting and satisfying. They were sexy, crazy passionate together and I felt S.J.D. Peterson’s ability to let us peek into their thoughts was seamless. She created characters I'd like to watch for years.
review 2: This is, I think, the only m/m story I've read that explicitly revolves around the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" in the US military - and it does it really, really well. There's quite a bit of sex, some D/s content and (for my taste) a few too many repetitions
... more of what manly men the two protagonists are, but at the core it's a love story about two Marines who never thought they could actually be together, even after twenty years of a best-friends-with-benefits arrangement. For them, the end of DADT coincides with the end of their military careers, and the author tells beautifully how they deal with the fallout of both. less
