This was a book just impossible to put down!!
The relationship between Dane and Jory it's a heartwarming one and their dialogues were just the funniest thing to read without lacking a wide variety of other emotions (love, anger, exasperation, friendship and so much more).
Sam though can only be described as someone you hate to love and love to hate. Still you can't fault him much (only about 90%) when he comes to the realization of his orientation in the age of 35. The poor man has a lot to come to grips with though that doesn't excuse tossing around Jory's heart.
The book has everything one wishes to come upon a book ^^

- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

i did not enjoy the music as chapter starters in the audio. not only could i not hear what was happening they didn't match the book itself, and it was honestly just fucking annoying, and yet I know it's how I'll be reading vol 2.
the book was fine.
I didn't really appreciate the whole "only gay or straight" attitude, and even tho I can say it was written in 2010, I still didn't appreciate it, even back then.
other then that it's fine, and compelling enough that I want to finish the series

Books 1 and 2 are both fantastic. The story is engrossing and the characters are wonderful. Jory is gorgeous, fun, flirtatious and Sam is strong and tough. The supporting characters are excellent, including Dane and Sam's family. Beware the cliffhanger at the end of each book as you just have to start the next book straight away to see what happens!
"He didn't get that my love was a gift and if somebody doesn't appreciate the value of being loved.....not a lot you can do"

Bueno que decir, esté libro es totalmente incongruente, salta de una escena a otra sin contexto, tuve que regresarme en varias ocasiones creyendo que me había perdido de algo pero no, simplemente las lineas del tiempo y la continuidad no son parte de este libro, no se si no tuvo edición por que parecen muchas veces ideas que apuntas para después desarrollarlas, cosa que no pasa. Ahora los diálogos, por Dios parecen maquinas todo, no sientes las emociones de los personajes y mucho menos las reacciones.
¿Por qué seguí leyéndolo? Porque era tan ilógico que me hizo reír y quería saber hasta donde llegaba.
En cuanto a la historia, leí varias reseñas y muchos adoran u odian a Jory. A mi la verdad me dio lastima Si todo el mundo habla de lo hermoso que es, pero con ello viene como maldición que creen que solo es como objeto para lucir, Jory es honesto y les habla con la verdad, pero sus ex son unos cretinos porque se sienten heridos y siempre terminan ofendiendolo y tratándolo como basura, ahí le admiro la paciencia a Jory porque nunca se pone a su altura.
Ahora Sam, que despreciable es este personaje, es un patán en toda la extensión, no quiere que en su trabajo se enteren de su "relación" con Jory porque es un conflicto de intereses y le traería problemas, supongamos que se la creo, pero no tiene que humillar a Jory se la pasa disuadiendolo para que estén juntos para después hacerle sentir que no le importa y sobre todo no acepta sus errores y siempre le echa la culpa a Jory.
Lo que me gusto es Jory y su jefe, su relación es muy extraña pero sincera, es lo salvable del libro.

Spoiler
ejemplo por segunda vez logra que Jory lo perdone, tienen relaciones recuerda que tiene una cena, le pide que vaya con él y se la pasa coqueteando con Maggie y deja botado a Jory, y después le arma un pancho porque Jory se va porque no quiere seguir siendo humillado asíLo que me gusto es Jory y su jefe, su relación es muy extraña pero sincera, es lo salvable del libro.

Every part of this was annoying. Except Dane Harcourt. Dane Harcourt gets three stars.
