Both Bryan and Todd are trying to figure out their sexuality though Bryan has it pretty much nailed. I enjoyed their sweet romance as it grew from friendship and just sex into something real. Bryan's insistence on condoms was something that rang bells for me as I wasn't always safe. The HEA ending was awesome.

Though short on the hockey, I enjoyed this smooth, uncomplicated story. The argue Mr. Davies used to remove Cam from hockey was flawless. I liked the Though short on the hockey, I enjoyed this smooth, uncomplicated story. The argue Mr. Davies used to remove Cam from hockey was flawless. I liked the idea of the three brothers living right next to one another and look forward to their individual stories. Cameron and Noah made a good fit and the bee keeping was interesting. The three POVs was an excellent idea. I thought it was going to be too much but found it flowed very well. Highly recommended....more

Finn and Max were the queens of the on again off again relationships! Their communication skills definitely needed work. I liked the rowing theme quitFinn and Max were the queens of the on again off again relationships! Their communication skills definitely needed work. I liked the rowing theme quite a bit. The two guys were absolute pros when it came to their sport. I don't think that the eating disorder deserved a place in the book as it was so lightly touched on. Tina was a fun characters as was Finn's mother. All in all, this was a very good, fast read....more

The sex was a bit too harlequin for me so I skimmed it. The angst was just right for the characters who were well developed and interesting. The story line did not get trampled under the horse's hoofs or get lost amid the scandal. More people should be reading this this fine story....more
Great story! The "church " vs gay theme has been done a bazillion times and it should keep being done until the uneducated finally learn. I was quite Great story! The "church " vs gay theme has been done a bazillion times and it should keep being done until the uneducated finally learn. I was quite surprised by Stoney and his thoughts and fears. It did not ring true to me. Robbie and Paul were both well done characters. I was happy to see Bryce and Dakota again. I enjoyed the way Ms Wasp wove the men's private and public lives together. This was a much better edited book from the last offering....more
I loved this story! The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars was the poor editing. The glaring mistakes pulled me right out of the magic of I loved this story! The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars was the poor editing. The glaring mistakes pulled me right out of the magic of the story a number of times. The story was indeed magical. Told from both Dakota and Bryce's POVs, it was well written. I enjoyed Bryce's overpowering family and the way they just made Dakota a part of it. Kyle was an A number 1 asshat. Lori was fun in her own boisterous way. The story flowed perfectly and the characters were fleshed out very well. Sports took a back seat to romance but it was still there. Highly recommended....more

All things considered, Jason dealt wit Smoothly written and touching story of Jason, a bull rider headed to the top of his career when he is blinded. All things considered, Jason dealt with his blindness after a grieving time due to the love and devotion of his friends. Bax and Jason made a good team as partners and lovers. Coke was my favorite character after Jason. He was the honest, steadfast friend who held things together when the ride got rocky. The ending was perfect and so very positive. ...more
Not as good as the first book only because there was way too much going on. Tenn and Nate, Rik and Kae, Kota and Iris just to name the majority. Then Not as good as the first book only because there was way too much going on. Tenn and Nate, Rik and Kae, Kota and Iris just to name the majority. Then the middle of the story hit and it dwelled almost exclusively about Nate, Kenzie and Tenn. I felt bad for Matt but he needed to grow a pair. There were some annoying editing flops but not enough to ruin the story....more
