Sheziss loves Zeshak

Another great love story that falls too short. It's undeniable for me GL has talent. I knew I'd like this one. Well, I liked it just after reading the title. What I don't understand is why she is such a fan of short stories or novellas. In my modest opinion, they would all work better in whole-length novels. Because it's very obvious time goes too fast and holes are often big (coinciding with time gaps or not).



At any rate, I liked this story pretty much. This one is set a few months after the first book in the series. Cam is another porn star in Blue Boy and he moves around on his skate. Sasha has nothing to do with the industry, and he is a BMXer. They get along instantly. Cam wants to come closer to Sasha, but every time they manage to give in to their mutual attraction, Sasha pushes him away.



I like that Cam is not sorry for his relationship with the porn industry. It's a breath of fresh air he doesn't wallow himself in self-denigration or shame or tries to justify it out of necessity. He's honest with himself and with everybody else and I value that. There is a tendency of making reasons up when something is out of the ordinary: he needs the money, he doesn't value himself, he's trying to achieve some ends by these means. Here Cam is unapologetically proud of what he is and I appreciate that.



The health issue was unexpected but in a good way. I liked that turn of events and that it never becomes a cheap source of drama. This is the first time ever I've read about testicular cancer and that the disease and the consequences are treated with the respect it deserves. Now more, because that would be making a scene, but not less, because it's not something you can just ignore. There were bits of humor and we always welcome that.



I was happy to meet Levi and Sonny again. And surprisingly, I loved the threesome scene. It didn't sound wrong and I never doubted their feelings for each other, just the opposite. But it was a mistake and I'll explain why. Yes, it was hot and natural, like it was meant to be. However, Levi and Sonny have lots of things to sort out yet and that's why I say that denying their right to have each of the these stories written with in a decent number of pages only leaves you unsatisfied. The problem is the time, which is lacking and results in the mistake I was talking about: does Cam fit with Sasha or is he better paired up with Levi and Sonny? Because there was a lot of chemistry between those three. Now the question will never die: Sasha or Levi-Sonny?



All in all, a good book. I recommend this series.
