The main character in this book is a sweet and innocent character that is comfortable with his sexuality and has known he has been gay since high school and he is very comfortable with his lifestyle.  However, this doesn't necessarily make it easy for him to meet people as it isn't always known if people are gay or not.  This is the situation he finds himself struggling with when he falls head-over-heels for one of the trainers that works at the gym.  This secret crush develops more and more in intensity, particularly as he gets to see Sam naked in the change rooms.  He is convinced, however, that Sam would never feel the same way about him and he harbors this secret crush to himself.  He is also convinced that Sam is definitely not gay so this makes his crush extremely complicated.This is a very sweet love story that is also extremely erotic and raunchy but it still maintains a very innocent sentiment - a perfect combination if you ask me.  The style is very easy to read and Sandra Ross always manages to capture the intimacy and depth of the situation and it really makes you feel involved in the actual situation.  It also represents a different angle of relationships and the difference between heterosexual and homosexual relationships - the struggles but also the similarities and the good.  I did find that I completely whizzed through this story, it definitely could have been a bit longer as I really enjoyed the characters.
