This isn't the first tale I've read by this author, and though it's the first in a series, all the books can be read as standalones.What I liked about the tale is that both leads had their issues, but that neither was too stubborn to risk what they had, and that Tomas drew strength from his love for Jesse to be able to confront his homophobic elder brother, and that Jesse knew Tomas had his back when he stood up to his bigoted, unloving father. The leads were young, yes, with one who'd only just come out and the other who had only been out for a year, the cost being the loss of his family, but at the end of the tale, which ended in the start of a HEA, I had a feeling they'd make it.I also liked that Daisy Harris tales aren't built around copious amounts of MM sex, but rather, sex forms part of the loving relationship between the leads, and for much of the tale, the sex is pretty innocent, not totally OTT and jaded like in some many MM tales.This left me with a warm feeling.Ebook courtesy of Samhain in return for an honest review.
