Ooh, I LIKED this. Getting discovered in the middle of self-inflicted predicament bondage by your best friend/bandmate who then offers to help? YES, PLEASE.
Even though I thought this would get into sexy times right away with that premise, a large part of the book really is basically kinky roleplay that gets pretty rough and intense. It's hot but not sexual at first, especially since the main character has always believed he's straight, even though the roleplay turns him on.
It was a great way to escape real life for a couple of hours, and I'll definitely be checking out more from this author.

This is so my kind of book - full of kink and sexual tension without any sap. I loved the creativity of the scenarios these boys played out, and they were quite a turn-on! I will definitely be reading more by this author.

Two guys, long-time friends and cousins "BY MARRIAGE @Brian" play out each other's perfect bondage/abduction fantasies.
Loved pretty much everything about this book. Loved the lack of romance in this book. It made it much more interesting, bringing out a different angle. Rough edges and sharp sense of self-discovery are more pronounce without lovey-dovey feelings obscuring the view.
What I didn't get was a full bladder fascination (but then we all have our kinks, so - whatevahs) and Brian's reaction to Dylan's confession. Assuming that Dylan had sex with countless women was somehow, apparently OK. But knowing that it was countless guys he was with - not? I am still puzzled.
4.5 stars.

incidental incendiaries.
it went like this:
the first 75 percent or so was top-drawer erotica concerned with kinks that do not even appeal to me but which were, nonetheless, unbelievably hot to read about.
the last 25 percent? an escandalo.
with the how-could-you and the slamming door and the truly unfortunate decision toput someone in a hospital due to a motor vehicle accident for dramatic effect .
i'm all, wheeeee!!! i'm having so much fun! i am horny, i am happy—
but then it all went to hell.
...quickly.
so i got really mad. but it wasn't until i began to write this review that i realized exactly why.
if it's just a poor editorial choice that has me so toasty right now, why am i the only one so upset out here?
well, it's like this:
that whole hullabaloo at the end was extremely unhelpful from a queer dude's perspective.
fuck what you heard, butyou can go straight to hell if you think anyone who grows up in a world where they can lose everything from their family to their life for finding beauty in the wrong genitals has to fucking apologize to you for keeping that a secret.
i'm not havin' it, friends.
at all.
and, but, so—the stuff before all that?
incinerated my junk.
so the experience of reading this book was a little confusing, y'see.
luckily—i'm a gay man! i have loads of practice navigating impossible binarie for which i am expected to apologize as if it were me who created them in the first place!
so this? the first 75-80 percent of it? it was terrific erotica.
a daring dance of balanced and exciting moves—but a dance that ends on the wrong foot.
you should stop reading after they have sex.
you should stop reading. after they have sex.
