This book was a really fun read which is pretty unusual in the m/m stories that I have read lately.Reg and Jeremy meet when Jeremy wanders into the hole-in-the-wall bar Reg works at while trying to get away from his rock star life for a bit. Reg recognizes him but talks to Jeremy like he is just any other person who came in off the street and they end up talking like 2 old friends. Reg has been out since college but Jeremy has only been with women- when Jeremy makes his offer to Reg to come on tour to play the part of his boyfriend, he has no idea what he is about to experience.Jeremy is really naive and innocent in a lot of ways and comes across as childlike more often than not. Then at other times the jaded superstar would make an appearance. It was actually a little sad to me that a 31 year old man could have been so sheltered.Reg is a few years younger but has lived a lot more than Jeremy in a lot of ways. I liked that they became friends and that Reg never pushed Jeremy too hard, only giving him subtle nudges to examine himself a little deeper to realize that he really wasn't straight after all.Overall I enjoyed the story- although the sweet factor was a little high for me at times, it was pretty low drama and made me laugh which was just what I needed when I read it.
