ARC received from GRR

I loved this one. It was really kind of mellow especially after the Rebel Kings Series, and I found that was just the balm my soul needed. 

Tam is a gem. I adored him. He likes his privacy and hates the fact that he needs to rent out his annex to make ends meet. His past still haunts him to a degree, but he just keeps continuing on. I loved the care he took with Bhodi. As soon as he realised he hadn't verbalised his feelings he took pains rectify that and let Bhodi know just how special he was.

Bhodi was a heartbreaker. He knows he falls too quickly for guys but also has the self awareness to know that Skylar in particular didn't do anything wrong, he just didn't love him back, and no promises were made. He knows his weakness and tries to protect himself but fails miserably. Luckily for him Tam is the sweetheart he needs. 

The relationship between the brothers was special and I was rooting for Sab to get his life in order, can't wait to see more of him. 

The quick nods to previous characters was fun with the little, was that who I thought it was moments throughout the book. 

Well worth the time
