This is my first read by this author. I loved it and will definitely be looking for more of her books, hopefully mm. I won't rehash the storyline or give spoilers, I personally don't care for those kind of reviews.I honestly enjoyed this book from the very beginning. I loved how we got the point of view of both main characters, also we were given the characters name before the switch so there wasn't any confusion. In the beginning we start from Fen's perspective and his first meeting with Jared. Then we get that same first meeting from Jared's perspective. At first I worried this would happen often in the book and was glad that it was only this one time. However, I think it was smart of the author to do this because the first time they meet is important to the story. The reader can understand the visceral reaction they have to one another.I like the way the characters were portrayed realistically. You have to believe in love at first sight and with these two it's easy. Problems were handled with grace, there wasn't a lot of whiney dragging on of issues. They talked out and handled the problems. I like how they both took responsibility for the career choices they made. I liked how Jared supports Fen in the meeting with Cat in New York. What I also liked was how in the second performance of Poison with the new songs, the reader realizes how much Fen acts out his character in real life.My favorite part is the scene where Fen and Jared are on the phone after Jared cuts himself while cooking and thinking about Fen. Vague I know, but I don't do spoilers. My other favorite parts are when their contracts are up and the final epilogue. This was one of the few epilogues I have read that actually enhances a story.I went through a range of emotions with this book, even a few tears. I think a book deserves high marks if the reader becomes immersed and emotionally invested in the characters. This book does this. Great job by this author. A definite recommendation and reread for me. It's definitely a permanent addition to my kindle and not gonna be sent off to cloud. I have over 1300 titles in my cloud and about 30 on my kindle. That should give you an idea of how great it is. A must read.Hey Teodora, I want Adam and Penn's story please.
