A review by codyjames
Dream by Garrett Leigh
4.0
The beginning of a 4 part series of novels that are all loosely linked together (though I’d say it’s 5 parts considering how tightly wound The Sex Coach is with all these characters). In this we meet Angelo, an ex ballet dancer who is working sun up to sun down to save the cafe his father ran into the ground before he died. In an effort to to let off some steam, he frequents a local club that is...uh...let’s say adult. And has a very adult interaction with Dylan. Before I go anyyyy further I should say this is easily, hands down, no comparison, Leigh’s steamiest book. Even I, who has grown used to Leigh’s steamy content, was not prepared for the LEVEL of steam. But anyway, then we have Dylan, a tax creditor who also chooses the let off steam at the same club. After their encounter, Angelo finds himself in Dylan’s office, and the two strike up a friendship that grows in a very Leigh way. I liked the emphasis on Angelo’s health issues as they were touched upon in The Sex Coach but never fully explained. Dylan didn’t do a lot for me, I gotta be honest. Even with his incident towards the end of the book which seemingly came from nowhere, he is lower tier when it comes to Leigh’s boys. Angelo though was so lovely to read about, and I loved the times when I got to read from his perspective.
