The second book in this Hammer spinoff series is as much fun to read and has as many kinky scenes as the first volume. This new "Hammer Light" with its emphasis on the loving part of a new relationship, little BDSM, and just a touch of D/s that helps the sub deal better with his life and makes the Dom a more fulfilled man is definitely a success as far as I'm concerned. All the shenanigans of the subs living in one place, the drama they manage to produce and the sheer chaos around them is a wonderful setting for new love to blossom.Paul (Devon's best friend from book one) is a cute guy, wants to hep, but has just about the lowest self-esteem of anyone I've ever read about. He actually believes that he makes people crazy, a "truth" his a**hat of a previous "dom" has managed to drill into his head. It destroys Paul's hope for love, he doesn't even dare call Jeff "Sir", and it's gotten to the point where he tries to hide so he doesn't ruin other people's lives.Luckily, Jeff, the new house manager for the place where Hammer waiters can find a safe home, takes one look at Paul and begins to fall for hm. He certainly isn't about to believe that Paul will "damage" him. As the two men get to know each other and get closer, he slowly manages to get the truth out of Paul about what happened, and sets out to make it all better.If you like reading about a man who thought he'd never find love, but wants it desperately, if you enjoy lots and lots of loving and kinky bedroom activity, and if the self-conscious, shy sub getting rescued by a kind and loving Dom is your thing, you will probably like this novella.NOTE: This book was provided by Torquere Press for the purpose of a review on Rainbow Book Reviews.
