I have to begin this review by saying that stories containing manlove aren't my usual fare. However, I was so invested in this series that I just had to know how Zeke's story ended. And, I've gotta say...it was pretty intense. It was a full throttle roller-coaster ride of emotions from all of the characters. Typically you only see one character struggling with an issue in triad type romances. But, it seems as if every character in this story -- Mary, Zeke, and Jeff -- all had a demon that they had to face. Honestly, I think that's the reason why the story was so well done. It connected the characters in such a way to show the readers that life for them was perfect and that it did intrude in their sexy triad bubble...often. First with Mary's injury and then with her mother showing up to "help". It continued with Zeke's reluctance to tell his family about his relationship with Jeff and then them finding out about it in a most inauspicious manner. Then finally it ended with Jeff's reveal about his past which was brought to the fore by Zeke's unintended behavior. See...sounds complex right?!?! It was but very well done in how Johnson wove their lives together so well that the each character was integral to another. And, not just the primary characters either. The secondary characters really helped to make this story shine even more. I'm still eager to know what happens to Liam and can't wait to read his journey.
