This is a sexy and fun short read. I loved the enthusiasm and chemistry between Henry and Ecco. Henry struck me as a sweet guy and Ecco a rambunctious, eager athlete. The situation Ecco had found himself in broke my heart and made me deeply sympathise with him. Despite the deep emotions and a few descriptive scenes, I found Mr. Michael handled the issue of the physical abuse very carefully and never in a positive light. Some readers mightn’t be comfortable with it but I really felt it was treated with respect and shouldn’t upset too many people.

I really loved the chemistry and blossoming romance between Ecco and Henry. Equal parts awkward, fun and gentle watching these two come together and build both a strong friendship and loving relationship was just beautiful. I loved how they didn’t jump instantly into bed, there was plenty of build up and by the time they finally really consummated their relationship I was thrilled for them both.

I finished this story feeling warm, happy and really positive – and that’s the best compliment I could ever give any writer. I felt attached and deeply invested in both Ecco and Henry and seeing them find their happiness together was a pleasure. I’ll happily be reading this book again many times in the future.

A fun story that has a strong and emotional plot, I can easily recommend this for other readers.
