I go back and forth between a 3 and a 4, so I will split the difference. It is hard not to fall in love with John and Kevin and want the best for them.

This is a nice love story. Of two men who found each other early in their lives, loved each other, chose different paths and come together again years later. Both military, both living with the scars of such of life. John rebuilt his life with school, studying psychology but living day to day without any joy. Kevin, forced to retired after a disastrous incident where soldiers and prisoners were killed. This is a nice long original fanfic like story with some short cuts ([b:the Lord of the rings|34|The Fellowship of the Ring (The Lord of the Rings, Part 1)|J.R.R. Tolkien|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1156043001s/34.jpg|3204327] references become annoying fast) that I could overlook because I liked Kevin and John. No over the top cutsey stuff, just two men that find each other again and who love each other very much.

I fell in love with this book. The relationship between these two guys was very sweet and believable. While a lot of times any sex scenes in lgbtq books are hot a dirty, the ones in this book were sweet and romantic, not about the sex but about the emotions.

But where it fell a little short (and lost one star) was the non-sex action. See, Kevin's life is in danger. When him and John nearly get killed and the bad guy is in a wreck, they aren't sure if he is alive or dead. And they don't go immediately to find out. They instead hug and make sexy talk. Not the time, boys! That whole scene, starting from the roadblock, was just confusing and lacked the tension it should have. It was the one part of the story where I couldn't picture clearly what was happening.
