Regan Finley’s photography makes the local music scene shine. He’s four months from his final exhibition and graduation. But instead of preparing for the party, he’s fretting about his exhibition theme — bondage and passion. There’s one person he wants to make his exhibition come to life, if he can convince his housemate to participate.

Camryn Tate plays the music that makes the young girls scream. He likes being a local rock hero. When he finds out what Regan wants for the exhibition, Cam has to make a decision. He can let Regan have his commanding way and get the pictures he needs for the exhibition, or he can walk away from the best roommate and friend he’s ever known… all because of a little ball of nylon rope.

Regan and Camryn had known each other for eighteen months and been housemates for the last six of them. While friendly, Camryn has never been keen to view Regan’s artwork, so Regan is surprised when Cam start showing a determined interest. The fact Regan has a massive crush on Cam and the soul-baring intimacy of some of his photographic pieces only makes things more difficult when Regan is determined to keep Cam’s friendship and not mess what they have up with the depth of his personal feelings.

This is a steamy friends-to-lovers style of story. I was pleased the author gave us a bit of time at the start to get a feel for Regan and Camryn’s characters, they didn’t just simply fall into bed together. I could see how they were well suited and each had been lusting after the other for quite a while. I admit I felt this story might fall a bit more into the “Happy For Now” style of relationship, not the “Happy Ever After” style mainly because both men were quite young and each only just beginning in their chosen careers and working lives. The connection and chemistry between Regan and Cam was pretty intense though and while I often don’t get the same feeling of satisfaction out of the “Happy For Now” style of relationships I felt this one might buck the trend and the two men might be able to work themselves out.

I was a little disappointed with Camryn’s freak-out when he discovered Regan wanted to practice Shibari on him. I didn’t get a good handle on why, exactly, Cam felt it so unsettled by this. Cam wanted – and was attracted – to Regan being somewhat Dominant in the bedroom and Cam considered Regan his best friend. So when Cam said he was wigged out because Regan might hurt him and he thought it was bizarre for Regan to want to tie him up, it just didn’t mesh with someone who was comfortable with some elements of BDSM and Domination in the bedroom, and a man who Cam had admitted was his closest and most important friend. This aspect of the plot passed fairly quickly, but I feel the story could have been a lot stronger had Cam’s mindset been either more strongly explained, or better fleshed out as it never really made complete sense to me and put a bit of a dampner on my enjoyment.

The sex between them is both descriptive and I found it hot and believable. There was quite a lengthy lead up between the two men so when they finally got together it was delicious and explosive. While the Shibari (bondage-style rope play) is intense and explicit, I feel this really opens up a different side of BDSM to readers. Personally, I found it interesting, fresh and a lovely flavor of different – but readers looking for something intensely kinky might not feel the same as I did.

Readers looking for a steamy and non-traditional BDSM story should find this quick read really appealing. I enjoyed it and look forward to re-reading it again in the future.
