After I had read the books in the Learning to Love series (look for my reviews below!), I was curious about John, Evan's brother from book 2. At the time I thought that his story would be one worth reading because he seemed liked such a complex and interesting character. I have to say, K.C. Wells did not disappoint in telling in his story.With her usual mix of the sweet, the spicy and the emotional, K.C. Wells delivered an amazing first book as the start to this series.I loved John! His character was a mixed of vulnerability, curiosity and determination. I loved that after struggling with it he accepted his sexuality and was determined to move forward with his life and his career. His emotions were intense and his struggles felt real. I especially admired his fortitude when everything seemed to be against him and Brett.Brett was also a great character to get to know. I especially enjoyed his struggle to keep his emotions and physical attraction at bay when it came to John. He had so many layers to him and I enjoyed seeing as each and everyone of them was peeled away simply because of John. He was both sweet and intense with a lovely caring side and so very conflicted about the situation he was facing.Do I even have to mention how amazing was their chemistry? One thing I have to say about K.C. Wells is that she doesn't pull any punches when it comes to bringing in the heat factor in her stories. Both John and Brett fought their attraction for each other so hard that when the time came for that first encounter *fans herself* it was everything I had expected and very, very HOT!What I enjoyed the most though would have to be John and Brett's honest interactions and their tender moments. They all served to deepen their connection and bring them closer together. Of course, the sex was awesome too, especially once their emotions came fully into play.All in all, a great start to a series that brought about the story of two individuals that had resigned themselves to never finding that one person they could spend their life with but embraced the opportunity when the right person came along.
