Review

****The author provided me with a complimentary copy of this book for my honest review****
This was a satisfying gay romance. It wasn't just a boy meets boy and lives happily ever after. This was a story of a man searching for that happily ever after, taking a disastrous step into an unhappy and unhealthy and getting his way out of it.
Simon thought that he had found the love of his life, but Michael ended up being a nightmare. Jealous unpredictable possessive tantrums really put a dampener on things. Insecurities in a relationship are everyone's worst nightmare.
I struggled with Simon's inability to quit this relationship. Nobody should accept abuse and for him to excuse it instead of moving forward frustrated and annoyed me. However, I know how we can all me blinded by love or the acquisition of love.
I liked the writing of this book though, I felt it flowed. Even though it was a shortish book, only 141 on my reader, it didn't feel rushed. Characters didn't seem flat but rather well developed as well.
All in all, I enjoyed this romance and I would read other books by this author.
