Review: 3.5 stars. Good, but too short to really connect with the characters

3.5 stars.This is a very cute short story. Maybe it's a little too short to make me really connect with the characters.I really liked Matt, he's very sweet and somewhat fragile. Flynn singles him out and waits for the right moment to make his move. Matt is very insecure and he's always met people who used him and/or despised him for being gay, but Flynn sees through Matt's insecurity and tries to build a little bit of his self-esteem. I think the author does a good job at leaving all the hints that a) Flynn has been wanting and liking Matt for quite some time before making his move; b) Matt can immediately feel his connection with Flynn on a deeper level than pure lust and attraction. What I couldn't really feel was the instant Dom/sub relationship, it seemed a bit forced.I usually enjoy Kim Dare's characters, but I prefer her stories when the Dom/sub roles have been developed for a longer time
