I thoroughly enjoyed reading about Jase and Carly in the Men of Steel series. I loved the premise and what more can you ask for then a house full of marked and buff men working together. This series is going to be intense, fun and with magnificently hot men. The characters were fabulous and this is a great introduction to the Steel men. Jase certainly is a complicated bloke, but then so is Carly.Carly is a nineteen year old with divorced parents. Living with her Mother the majority of the year and visits her Father (plus Barbie) and Brother for holidays. Visiting her Father for the Summer certainly turned out to be exciting. Her cousin, Abe takes Carly out to hang on the beach with his friends and that’s the first time she discovers the hot goodness of Jase Steel.Jase Steel is an artist and works at Forever Steel, a piercing and tattoo store. As the name explains, this is a family run business where his brothers and Mother work. Jase has a complicated and secretive past and wants to keep it that way, but when he notices Carly for the first time, they seem to be instantly attracted.Jase has a girlfriend (Pam), but there seems to be trouble in paradise and for two weeks Carly visits the beach before Jase works up the courage to talk to her. Carly is hesitant because he is with Pam, but Jase has other plans and sets it up where she has no choice.Carly sneaks out to see Jase and is determined to continue seeing this intriguing and beautiful girl. His relationship with Pam is complicated and Jase breaks up with her so he can see Carly freely. Carly visits the shop where Jase and his family work and they all instantly welcome her like she’s family. The atmosphere gives Carly the courage and confidence to stick up for herself when they take the mickey out of her about Prince Albert. But their time is running out…..Carly has to go home when the Summer is over and Jase doesn’t have a choice to but to let her go. Carly is still pure, but on a couple of attempts to lose it, luck just doesn’t run their way.Jase comes to visit Carly, but some news draws him home early. Will they ever get to be together when they live so far apart? Carly attempts to get stuck into school work as a distraction and Brad certainly helps as a distraction also.Drifting apart and Jase’s past catches up with him. He doesn’t feel ready to divulge his secrets with Carly yet and they separate again. With tragedy on both sides, can these two love birds ever truly be free to love each other? Will there be a compromise with locations? What does Carly truly want to do after college?I really loved the fun banter between the brothers and Carly. It was light-hearted fun and had me laughing at their mishaps. The comedy aspect lightens the mood from the tragedy in the past and present, but certainly doesn’t take anything away from the eternal love Jase and Carly hold for each other. I certainly cannot wait to read the rest of the Steel boys’ stories with Cyrus up next. His story will be awesome I'm sure.
