There are certain genres in which free books are rarely worth reading.  Gay romance, my current favorite, is one of them.  I approach every freebie with a frightening level of apprehension, never knowing whether it will be an actual real effort at fiction or just someone's smutty fantasies put to paper (reading those makes me want to take a very long shower).So this is an adorable story about an adorable boy (man actually, but still young to me) with a disabling condition (this I understand, the reason I read so much is that I have my own collection) who meets a man.  Hijinks ensue.  This is a 3 part novel, and the author will sink you for the cost of a paperback before you finish, so don't imagine you are getting anything for free other than the opportunity to decide whether you wish to read about Daniel and Alexander.I used to write a lot about the quality of the writing, but lately my only criteria is my ability to lose myself in the story for a while.  So, the writing was not bad enough to distract me, the characters were truly charming (Alexander has earned a place as one of my favorites), and the romance really worked for me.Sex scenes were quite graphic but didn't come off as smutty.  Some people might find the sex in this book a bit excessive.
