4.5 stars
Ashton Cade has gifted us with another well written descriptive book, with characters that sucked me in immediately and had me engaged from the start. Ben and Adam are so likeable and have an immediate connection. Ben did crush on Adam 15 years ago in high school and when Adam returned home he felt an immediate draw to Ben.
Ben is bright, sincere, kind and full of life and energy. Adam is controlling, was a bit of a recluse and lived a life of complacency. When Adam rushes home to care for his mother, who happens to be Ben’s best friend, he and Ben have a very rocky start. Added to that, Adam has a very strained relationship with his mother.
Misunderstandings combined with things said in anger make for a rather bumpy road but Ben and Adam do finally work it all out, and the heat level rises accordingly!
I highly recommend this book and look forward to the next instalment in this wonderful series.
