romanticread 's review for:
Xylan
by Rider Jacobs
If you've made it this far then you know that this is a M/M romance. It's also got a little BDSM thrown in too so while it isn't going to be for everyone, it is well written so Xylan is a good choice for more adventurous readers. Amazon has it at just under 100 pages (and 4+ stars, btw), so it is definitely a fast read.
But Jacobs doesn't pull any punches with her plot and there were a lot of different things about it that worked for me. I really liked the committed relationship between Xylan and Hamilton - the trust and honesty and love between the two. There were moments of humor as well as some that were darker. And definitely some that were sexy and hot, but it's the ones that were from the heart that were the best.
If I have any complaint it is that I felt like I needed one more chapter to find out what happens next ... maybe there will be a follow up book. Not that I want more bad things for Xylan but I'm curious to see how everything turned out. If she doesn't have one planned, maybe we can talk Rider into writing one :)
