Okay, first off, I'd like to say though I thoroughly enjoyed this book, I don't think it's without its problems. The H1 harboring a secret crush for his best friend H2 could seem a little predatory. I have also seen many people believe the first sexual experience between them reaches levels of fetish, but I think if you have a sexual experience with a friend, it can become a center piece in your relationship especially if it was the last time you saw them and you are harboring some level of regret.

That said, I think there were some wonderful moments, and some things seemed too easy, for example
Jaime realizing he was bisexual, or the team's acceptance or even the easy way Wes is accepted by Jaime after he comes out, even after their encounter 4 years prior.

But that was also wonderful-the whole shrug of it all for Jaime the way he's realized he's always loved him and I particularly enjoy the evolution of their relationship. Have a I mentioned it's heart flipping and hot? That too. I love a friends-to-lovers story and this one did it with steam and discovery.

There's eye-roll worthy treatment of women in hetero relationships, so this book is simply imperfect. That said, I read one review that said "I read it in one sitting and thought, "Well, it's late and I'm tired." and then I was up till 4 am. Maybe I shouldn't give it the 5 stars considering some of the problems, but it was too damn enjoyable to justify any other rating.
