My Review:What a sweet, fun little Christmas novella. I loved every moment of reading it!Fielding is a lot awkward. At 19, he's in the Physics grad program and moving away from home for the first time. He's brilliant mentally, but socially he needs some help. Mick is just the opposite. He's spent the last two years of college partying hard as part of the football team and getting laid. But now he wants to refocus on his school which is going to kick his butt if he doesn't buckle down this semester. Fielding is the perfect roommate for that.They quickly become friends and Mick quickly takes Fielding under his wing to teach him all that he's missed out on life so far. When Fielding hears how good of a kisser Mick supposedly is, he thinks that Mick should step up and help him here too. Fielding doesn't understand why it's such a big deal. For Mick, it's a big deal because it stirs up feelings about Fielding that he just isn't comfortable confronting yet. Besides, they're friends and he sure doesn't want to screw that up by being Fielding's first kiss...something that should mean something...at least for the memories.Like I said, this book is fun. Fielding is the ultimate nerd, especially at first, but Mick has been helping him out, working him out and suddenly Fielding is getting a lot hotter. These guys are friends and that's an unlikely thing at first since they have so little in common, but they bond pretty quickly. Then when things step up, they get hot pretty quickly. I liked how the heat factor immediately exploded when the two kissed. It wasn't a slow build-up...it was spontaneous combustion.It was a good book. Perfect for the holidays because it was short and sweet and romantic and filled with little mistletoe moments...which provide just the perfect excuse.
