Review:This was a quick and sweet read, a feel-good story in a small dose. It made me feel happy and content. It didn’t include anything overly complicated, nothing was overdone.Liked:The couple – a classis opposites attract romance, which turned out to be not really typical with some twists in the backgrounds of the guys. Terry was your spunky and adorable bottom and Kent your usual arrogant top hunk, who isn’t really so bad once you get to know him.Kent’s family was so warm and fuzzy and the whole trip to their place had some hilarious and nice moments. Come to think of it, the supporting cast was all likable and supportive.The main trope is so overused it’s already starting to become a joke – a successful hot and seemingly perfect guy making a bet to date someone he would never, under ordinary circumstances, be with, just to prove a point or get something – BUT, I guess I’m lucky, because I love that trope and don’t mind reading diverse versions of it again and again.Didn’t like:The length, which is also a pro, is a big con for me as well. I needed more descriptions and reasoning behind the quick progress of Kent and Terry’s relationship. It wasn’t really lacking, but I would have preferred more. I wanted see and experience up close, instead of just hear that something happened.At times the characters were too simplistic and one-dimensional, but I wasn’t really bothered by that as much, because the likeability rating was high.All in all a fast and pleasant m/m read with decent characters and a positive feel to it.
