Review: Not the strongest in the series
Rating: 4 out of 5

I really love this series, but I am afraid for me this was the weakest book in the series, probably because neither Zach nor Matt have the wow factor that their lovers have.I liked seeing Matt and Jared iron out the small things that were causing tension in their relationship. Matt taking charge and staking his claim on Jared was very hot, but from a dramatic point of view, the most difficult part in their relationship was told in Promises.Zach. Zach has always been for me the least likable character in the series. It has always seemed to me that things just happened to him and that he never really tried to take his life into his hands and do something. He's probably the best choice for a man like Angelo, who is afraid of being caged. Even if this is what I feel for Zach - I don't hate him, I don't love him, I feel indifferent - his pages have always been the ones which made me cry, because his confusion is always extremely real and his worship of Angelo is incredibly sincere and heartwarming.I was sorry Jared's presence was a bit faded, but Cole was perfect and I appreciated that Jon tried to have a closure on his past with Zach, despite Zach's inability of facing it. At the end of the series, I think Angelo is the character who'll really stay with me, because he's the one I saw grow up page after page.
