This is the first in a new series by Hogan, set in and around a fashion store for men. As such, it lays down the setting for the series, and introduces us to a lot of people who need close attention paid to!
I liked this, I liked this a lot. Its very well told, with both Rhys and Beck having a say. I loved the supporting cast too, getting to knew new book people is far more enjoyable than getting to know new real people!
The way Hogan deals with Rhys' attack, and the aftermath that he is still dealing with all this time later is classic Hogan: VERY well written, dealt with VERY sensitively, extremely well researched and delivered in a way that doesn't overwhelm you with the techincal details.
So why 4 stars and not 5? I dunno, but I wrote 4 stars at the top of the page, and I can't make myself change it to 5, and that pains me so.
Because Rhys and Beck are PERFECT for each other: polar opposites, but very well suited. I loved that Beck keeps putting his foot in it with Rhys' and, I think, Rhys begins to like that. Loved that Beck was looking after his teenage nephew, while his mother is . . away (*spoilers!) Loved that Rhys has a whole host of friends, who may or may not know what happened all those years ago.
I loved that circle of friends, and the supporting cast, and I was putting together pairings cos I haven't paid too close attention to who might be next!
A really REALLY strong 4 star read, sorry I can't stretch!
