Synopsis:
Short-tempered, arrogant heart surgeon Jason Garcia grew up wanting a close-knit family, but believes he ruined those dreams when he broke up his marriage. The benefit of divorce is having as much random sex as he wants, and it’s a benefit Jason is exploiting when he meets a sweet, shy man at a bar and convinces him to go home for a no-strings-attached night of fun.Eight years living in Las Vegas hasn’t dimmed Abe Green’s optimism, earnestness, or desire to find the one. When a sexy man with lonely eyes propositions him, Abe decides to give himself a birthday present—one night of spontaneous fun with no thoughts of the future. But one night turns into two and then three, and Abe realizes his heart is involved.
For the first time, Abe feels safe enough with someone he respects and adores to let go of his inhibitions in the bedroom. If Jason can get past his own inhibitions and open his heart and his life to Abe, he might finally find the family he craves.
This book was an ok read for me. I have not read the previous books in this series… This was the 1st book I’ve read from it… and not once did I feel lost in anyway. I truly felt connected with all the characters in this book.
I liked Abe’s character. I thought maybe he was a little too passive with certain things that went on in this book. He was a doormat… When it came to Jason’s tantrums. But I felt he could have done a little better with telling Jason how he really felt. He kept a lot of things bottled up.
I mean… They went months seeing each other. & Abe didn’t even know where he lived! He was never invited to Jason’s house! And not once did Abe feel the need to say anything. He didn’t want to rock the boat when it came to Jason. Sex was differently 1st in their relationship. Which I think it’s good…to a certain point! You need to talk about things and not let it go..or cover it up with sex.
I wasn’t feeling Jason at all. He had this messed up attitude. It was always his way or no way. I just couldn’t get into.
Yes… He was simi ok… But only after he has his tantrum. And all problems were usually solved with sex…
Jason is grown man… With a powerful job! He should not be acting like that.
But… Abe balanced Jason. They had a good relationship for the most part. The sex was pretty hot! And I loved the dirty talk!! And I loved Jason’s relationship with his ex-wife.
Overall… I liked this story but… I didn’t love it.
But…I do want to read the other books in this series.
