What was meant to be a year of fun and relaxation turned into a soul deep, life changing experience.Alex Hunter is the stereotypical beach bum, working only enough to get by and parties all night. Living with his brother and his best friend/pseudo girlfriend Holly, they live the typical lifestyle of those on the wrong side of the beach. With no real ambitions, and no cares in the world, Alex is blissfully ignorant of all the things life has to offer. Until Matt walks into his job.Matt Tarrington is a college graduate with the weight of the world poised to settle on his shoulders. But Matt isn't looking forward to stepping into his father's footsteps, the same that led his father to an early grave. Deciding to spend a year at the beach, the same he spent his summers on, Matt just want to live and relax before he's shackled to a desk for the rest of his life. What he wasn't expecting was meeting someone who would change his entire world.Matt was known as a ladies' man, but little did the world know that he'd secretly lusted after a few men over the years, including Alex. Something about the man had lit Matt's fire since high school. Luckily for him, Alex wanted Matt in return. Being in the closet, Alex had to be careful of who he came on to, but Matt gave out all the signs of an interested party. When the passion ignites, neither are prepared for the trail is leaves behind.I loved this book! I will admit that the previous M/M books I have read have never tickled my fancy the way this book did. I think the author did a fabulous with the character development of both Matt and Alex. First the sex and passion ignited the page, wow, but then the love and romance swept in like an ocean wave and really made this book sizzle. It was a typical love story of people from opposite sides of the tracks, or beach in this case, but Kele Moon did a great job of finding a middle ground.If you are a fan of sexy Alpha boy loving with a dash of sweet and a whole lot of passion, then this is a book for you. I will be dipping into this author's backlist to see what other treasures I can find!Originally posted at Long and Short Reviews
