Warning: This review might contain what some people consider SPOILERS.Rating: 8/10PROS:- Rhodes does a good job of delving into characters' heads and really examining how they're thinking and why they feel the way they do.- I always find this author's sex scenes really hot--mostly because she tends to create characters who have been secretly pining for each other for years, so when they finally get together, it's emotional and explosive.- I really like Al, Ben and Jeremy's roommate. He's blunt, accepting, and disarmingly charming.CONS:- It caught me by surprise when Jeremy finally confessed that he wanted Ben for as long as Ben would have him. The reason, I think, was that I had seen proof of Jeremy's soul-searching about his sexuality and his attraction to Ben in particular, but I hadn't seen Jeremy admit, even to himself, that he really wanted something long-term.- There are some cliché remarks throughout the story about being true to yourself, family not having to be born into, etc.Overall comments: This is a simple story about someone who's closeted working up the courage to admit his feelings for his best friend. It's not complicated or terribly original, but I liked the characters and thought that it was definitely worth a read.
