I agree with livianni that this is a great book. More than reasonably priced for the content, it weaves a wonderful tale of not two but several main characters and their perspectives on life as gays in a traditionally homophobic arena. It is not just filled with gratuitous sex scenes, which seems to be the majority bread and butter of so many authors. After reading in the genre for many years, even though potentially tantalizing, that gets old very quickly (Sean Michael's books come to mind). I did not want the story to end (because it was so well written) but was left satisfied with the ending (many books in the genre leave you hanging for one reason or another). Too many books are coming out now that are pushing the envelope as far as pricing goes; after all, part of the "beauty" and draw of e-books is that they are cheaper than their paper cousins. I can understand increasing the price for an English book that has been translated into another language; however too many English language versions are way over priced, especially for the limited content. This book, however, bends in the opposite direction; I think they could have charged more. There's a lot of bang for the buck here.
