Infinite Blue by Natalina Reis

5.0

Shahin Halcon makes no excuses for whom he is. He also knows what his future holds. Cai Banes seems to be an introvert. In certain situations he seems nervous. We have two people where one knows what he wants and one who’s a little apprehensive – which you might expect as two people get to know each other. Early into this story, our author sticks in a factoid. I checked and it’s true – you learn something new every day.

I liked that Cai had a great support system – made me wish I had a sister. One thing that I found very realistic is that everyone seems to have an opinion. I wanted to help Cai out and tell those people to MYOB. Something else that I found very realistic was that Shahin wants to expand Cai’s experiences. As couples get to know each other they may do something they’ve never done before. One character that you will have no trouble picturing is Shahin’s mother. I was not impressed with how she treated both her son and Cai. But it’s a sad truth as to how a lot of families treat members who want something different. It shows the pain that can happen to the couple – which as an outsider is really sad.

This is a story that shows the fine line between what is real and what is fantasy. Part of what’s real is prejudice of someone who believes a couple should be a certain way – like should be with like. What made me happy is that our couple is willing to fight for what they want and not let all the negativity stop them. Having other family members having their backs also helped. I’m both glad that I had a chance to read this story while discovering a new author. I look forward to checking out more of her work. If you don’t mind reading a story about two men that learn to be comfortable with each other and show how much they love each other than why not give this book a try.

I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
