Synopsis

Joel has finally walked away from his abusive ex and is ready to meet new people. But that isn’t easy for a guy who’s shy, self-conscious, and struggling with his body image.

Andre has wanted Joel since the first time he laid eyes on him, and finally Joel is single. But Andre is a Dom and a sadist, and Joel is unapologetically vanilla. There’s no happy medium—either Andre reins in the kinky side that took him years to accept, or Joel grits his teeth and subjects himself to kinks that aren’t his thing. No matter who bends, someone’s going to be unhappy.

They agree to walk away, but they keep circling back to each other. Though their kinks might not line up, the chemistry between them sizzles and the emotional connection keeps getting deeper. But none of that will get them anywhere if they can’t find some kind of middle ground in the bedroom.

Review

This will not have a conventional ending. Perhaps you'll see it coming, I honestly did not.  That is the best way I can start off this review. Now I'll talk about it a bit.

This is a very kinky book! LA Witt has sure proven she writes great sex! Never rushes those passionate moments or those fabulous quickies. This book has some serious hotness to it!

One MC, Joel, really tugged at my heartstrings while simultaneously frustrating and angering me lol. He was in a D/s relationship, his Dom was abusive, selfish, and treated Joel poorly. But that's all you get. LA Witt kind of drop it there. The backstory there, I felt, was vital. I truly kept waiting for a morsel that would make me understand the motives that made Joel come to the decision on the type of relationship he chose with Andre. Had she expanded more there I think the connection from reader to the character would have been stronger.

Andre who is a Dom is understanding, kind, and patient with Joel. Everything a great Dom should be. However, there's a problem. Andre's kink is darker than Joel is comfortable with and it makes having a BDSM relationship impossible. I won't say more .

This book was hot and passionate, yes. But, it needed more explanation. Lengthening the story would have done that. I felt too much was omitted and therefore it just was a miss for me. I hope there's more of these guys and that can hopefully clear things up and fill the gaps. 

About the Author

L.A. Witt is an abnormal M/M romance writer who has finally been released from the purgatorial corn maze of Omaha, Nebraska, and now spends her time on the southwestern coast of Spain. In between wondering how she didn’t lose her mind in Omaha, she explores the country with her husband, several clairvoyant hamsters, and an ever-growing herd of rabid plot bunnies. She also has substantially more time on her hands these days, as she has recruited a small army of mercenaries to search South America for her nemesis, romance author Lauren Gallagher, but don’t tell Lauren. And definitely don’t tell Lori A. Witt or Ann Gallagher. Neither of those twits can keep their mouths shut…

L. A.’s backlist is available on her website, and updates (as well as random thoughts and the odd snarky comment) can be found on her blog or on Twitter (@GallagherWitt).
