It was different; set in Australia and centred around one ex-biker gang guy trying to go it straight in the small town of Sugartown
I liked Elijah. He was hot and so sweet with Ana and Sammy. He tried to resist her for her own good but in the end he couldn't do it and it made me smile because I think they make quite a cute couple.
As for Ana, she was so strong willed and, I was behind her 100% of the book in regards to seducing Elijah, it broke my heart a little with what happened to her, though. Poor thing. Elijah got a bit of justice for her, which sent him even higher up my list of favourite things in this book.
It has a different plotline to most NA, so if you're getting bored of reading the same sort of storylines, you should check this out!

I enjoyed this. The banter; the attraction; the relationship.
I wasn't sure about this book; whether I wanted to read it; would I like it. And the answer now I have is yes and yes.
It hooked me in from early on and I so wasn't expected that to happen in the first chapter, not with how Chloe had described Bennett. And then I had to laugh when she just left him there and I knew I was going to really like it. Then as the hot sex and insults continued throughout, I just wanted to shout, "Get on with it and admit how you feel, you idiots!"
There was a nice progression to it, their feelings didn't suddenly occur, you saw it happen and I loved that.
I think I need to read the rest of the series now to see how some of the other characters and Bennett and Chloe's story continues.

4.5 stars!
I think it's my recent obsession with escort/sex-worker stories with tons of romance in them.
It was a perfect mood to be in when I read this story of Mason and Reese. She was quirky and within the first chapter had won me over with her thoughts of Mason. Mason sounded hot and grew on me quickly the more I read of him. He also broke mine and Reese's heart several times in the story.
He more or less despised himself for what he was doing and it was that that hurt to read. There were some powerful scenes between these two and when they finally, FINALLY!, got together I was so happy for them.
I look forward to reading other books by this author.

This is only the third full-length mm romance I've read and like the other two, it was a sort of mystery/thriller.
I liked both characters. They were both really likable and I enjoyed reading their story, though the whole on again/off again thing drove me a bit potty at times, but I have to say the on again bits were both hot and sweet.
As for the bad guy, I had my suspicions from about mid-way through just because he seemed to be in the right place at the right time. I felt the ending, in regards to the bad guy, was a little bit of an anti-climax for me (but by then I was more interested in Ty's safe recovery than how the bad guy got his comeuppance)
I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the series to see what else these two get up to :D
