4.5 star Review written for Hearts on Fire Reviews.com.This story picks right up where the last one left off.  From the first few pages, I was brought right back into this story with everything that I loved about the last one.  I’ve been a huge Thomas fan from the beginning.  I love watching him re-invest himself and his life and seeing him find happiness.  I’m actually a Cooper fan as well.  These guys are funny, sexy and just a joy to watch.The main theme here centers around the guys coming out to more and more people, including their other family members, as a couple.  Sofia is the first challenge, and she takes a bit to come around.  In addition, Thomas and Cooper each come out and/or introduce the other to their parents with varying results.  Most seem to have more problems with the age thing, but it’s how the guys deal with it that I enjoyed.One of my favorite parts of this story is the relationship progression.  I loved how Cooper makes Thomas ask the right way for him to move in, and poor Thomas floundering to understand and get it right was fun to watch.  Often times, Cooper really seems the more mature of this relationship, which is why I think it works so well.  I also loved watching them come to realize what each means to the other.  Very well done, in my opinion.I definitely suggest reading book one, Elements of Retrofit, as it really gives you a better feeling of why these guys are so good together.  There are a few things that are repetitive here, and even though one important factor is the age difference, the constant references to it, got a little tiresome here and there.  But the story is totally worth it, and I’m really looking forward to the next installment.
