“5-Star Review:

...it had me crying along with the characters. It blows the doors off of almost all gay fiction I’ve read on Amazon.””

— Kevin B.

“5-Star Review:

This was a great read.
The author has a strong ability to see inside a character’s mind, which is fantastic for any genre. The human connection is what makes the story compelling, and the author is very good at this. The characters are relatable and even if they’re a piece of shit it’s easy to identify and follow their nasty thoughts, which is great.

“5-Star Review:

Wow! What an incredible book; I read it straight through without putting it down (except for 1/2 hour to recharge my Kindle!) This book was different from the typical M/M romances I read where boy meets boy, they fall in lust then love, and they overcome whatever minor obstacles they have to get to their HEA. I wasn’t sure sure at first if I would like it, and I’m so glad I was wrong! Yes, it’s a romance, but it’s so much more as well. ”

— Lisa (Goodreads)

“5-Star Review:

I want to start by saying that I loved this story. It was thrilling and steamy and thoroughly enjoyable! I wouldn’t mind reading a sequel or a whole series!”

— Jo B.

“5-Star Review:

I was so caught up with the characters that there were several moments when I found myself just bursting into tears right along with the characters. As many books as I’ve read before, I can’t recall that ever happening before. Unbelievably powerful.”

— Mark B. (Amazon review)

“5-Star Review:

I couldn’t stop reading. I spent the last 2 hours finishing this book and this was one hell of a rollercoaster. Can’t wait for the next book in this series and I can’t wait to get more from Michelangelo and Brandon. Gosh they are so damn cute...”

— Dani (Goodreads)

“5-Star Review:

I loved this story. It is so much more than “just” a romance. There is suspense too, and basically a wholesome, feel-good vibe to the book. ”

— Merissa (Goodreads)

CREEP by RadioHead

When Brandon was younger, he loved to play this song on his guitar. Michelangelo’s twin brother, Leo, also loved this song. The lyrics of the song figure prominently in book in several key, very emotional scenes. If you don’t have the song in your music library, you should definitely check it out!
