Review: Entertaining, but nothing special
Rating: 3 out of 5

Warning: This review might contain what some people consider SPOILERS.Rating: 6/10PROS:- Paul and Jeff are sweet, and I was predictably rooting from them from about the second page on.- I liked seeing more of Barney and Devon (from the first book in the series, This Old House), especially since they are instrumental in getting Paul and Jeff together.- I love that Michael always introduces a new intriguing character with each new story. I will now be hoping that he writes a story about Little Mike sooner rather than later.CONS:- I would have liked to see a little more interaction between the two main guys and the secondary characters, particularly with how Jeff gets along with the twinks at the house.- I liked Paul. He's the typical Sean Michael submissive: sweet, fidgety, and adorable. But he seemed different in this book than he did in his brief appearances in Box of Nails. He's not as timid as I expected, not quite as flighty or unsure of himself. And I found that I was disappointed by that.Overall comments: I love Michael's BDSM stories and enjoy reading even the ones that aren't that great overall. Most of this author's works have an element of instalove to them, and I never really mind it. Here, though, the attraction isn't quite as well established as it usually is. So I found myself having to work harder at believing in the power of the men's immediate connection.
