Liam is an actor in a successful TV series who struggles with anxiety and panic attacks. HIs fellow co-star and friend Aaron has found a way to help him deal with the attacks using non-sexual forms of bondage and submission techniques. Liam wants this arrangement they have had to turn into something sexual, but is afraid to lose the friendship with Aaron that he has relied on to help him through his tough times. What he really wants is to belong to Aaron completely. Liam gets to a point where not expressing his feelings to Aaron is making him miserable and is making the "friendship" they have unbearable. He finally expresses his desires to Aaron, but Aaron has some baggage of his own that is preventing him from taking what Liam is offering.This story isn't long, but it does feel complete. We get a good sense of who both characters are, and watching them struggle as their feelings and relationship changes is really touching. Seeing Aaron help Liam through his panic attacks is really wonderful, and it is easy to see why Liam would fall in love with him. It was very difficult to watch both characters suffer as they tried to find their way through the transition from non-sexual friendship to something more. When these characters do finally kick things up to the next level it is definitely smokin' hot! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good m/m friends-to-lovers with some light BDSM.*a copy of this book was provided in exchange for an honest review
