4.25 of 5 starsFor original review see The Prism Book Alliance Blog onlineI was eager to read Equilibrium for two reasons: First, I had read book three in the series, Nobody’s Hero, accidentally out of order, and enjoyed it. Secondly, I am making my way through the authors attending this year’s GayRomLit Retreat and Katey Hawthorne is on that list. I was pleased to find Equilibrium did not disappoint!Sam was adorable, and it was sad to think of the struggle he went through before he met Hansen. I liked how Hansen handled all the situations thrown at him and kept his “cool”. Together they were hot, even if it took Hansen awhile to believe Sam was not just experimenting with him. By the end, they reached “equilibrium” nicely.I also appreciated that this novella was well edited. I found no errors that I could recall and everything flowed smoothly. In the end, the only thing holding it back from a 5 star rating is that I never felt that “spark”. It was good, really, really enjoyable and maybe a reread is needed, but in the end I did not have the necessary connection for it to be amazing.
