I loved  and i mean absolutely love the first book of this series ' The Square Peg' . I loved the character Vincent but i didn't like the character Patrick in the first book. Patrick came off flighty and he seemed to be an intelligent lightweight.Vincent fell for someone back in high school and he never truly got over him. To be honest , when reading the book i didn't understand why he fell for the dude. ( Why he believed he fell for him) For Riley. Riley was a tool. Not a useful one. A dull one. He treats Vin like crap. Like complete crap. To him it's about sex not about love, which it is for Vin. But then there's Patrick. Patrick the ever devoted friend. Sure he's a bit promiscuous but then again most young people with active sex lives can be. It is what it is. Yet , Patrick starts to grow up and realize what he wants. Most specifically whom he wants, which is Vincent. Instead of coming out and telling Vin his real feelings he decides to be " a friend" and support his relationship with Riley. Even though it's twisted one.I tried so very hard to like this book. Partly , i did. Reason being because i love Vincent. Even if he is completely wrong with his affections in the majority of this book. The book focuses on Vincent's relationship (facade) with Riley for about 83% of the book. Then Vincent find his balls and decides to really focus on what he's doing with his life. It was sweet near the end but i couldn't get into the majority of the story because of f*** face Riley.We were treated to a few scenes with Benedict and Shane and it's f****ing beautiful. I want another story in this series. There are more characters in the bar that i'm personally fascinated with and i'd like to read their stories.
