I'll say it right now - part of the appeal, for me, of reading Josephine Myles' works is because the Brits have the driest senses of humor and their English has so many words and phrases which are unheard of in America. Literally the best expressions for things! It's absolutely fantastic to read and enjoy. How can you not like a book that starts out with a sarcastic little twink and the Boss is described as George Clooney in leathers and a Harley? That's fantasy material right there.Cosmo Rawlins is twenty four and working the unemployment system in order to keep his benefits but not have to actually work another dead beat job. He's a musician and would much rather spend his time working on that. Meeting Alasdair Grant is quite the shocker. The Boss is a forty year old self-made man and has no respect for Cosmo when he finds out he's "screwing the system". But there's something about Cosmo that calls to Boss's Dom. Watching these two constantly butting heads is very entertaining. Alasdair is determined to control Cosmo. Well, Cosmo us not about to have anyone tell him what to do. Certainly not outside of the bedroom anyway.But there's a lot more to this story than a Dom looking to initiate and train a novice sub. Both of these men have a lifetime of scars on their souls. Alasdair has good reason to be as big of a control freak as he is. Can he let go of any of that in order to keep Cosmo? Cosmo needs to know he belongs and is cherished and owned. Can Alasdair give that to him?
