Product Description It started with one kiss. Which led to another. And another. And then to a mind-blowing night of intimacy Jeremy Reynolds can-t forget. He can-t stop thinking about the gorgeous, smart, compassionate man who tilted his world. Can-t stop seeing warm, sexy eyes gazing at him with breath-stealing intensity. Jeremy tries to tell himself to let the incident go, move on, and chalk it up to a life experience. After all, what transpired between him and his best friend and roommate, Ben Cross, can never happen again. Ben is gay, and Jeremy...isn-t. At least he-s never thought he was before. But now he-s torn and confused and not sure what the night with Ben meant-for either of them. Already stressed about final exams before the holidays and his difficult family situation, Jeremy doesn-t know how to deal with the conflicting feelings he-s having. And the one person he-s always been able to talk to about everything, and who-s always been there for him, is the very person he-s been avoiding for the past week because he doesn-t know how to face him after waking up in his bed. Afraid he might have already screwed up his and Ben-s friendship beyond repair, Jeremy is haunted even more by the backlash he could face if he admits to Ben, or even to himself, how much the night they spent together really meant to him. And how much he still wants Ben even now... Genres: Gay / Contemporary / Interracial / Multicultural

| Customer Reviews: loved it March 18, 2010 Tamerut Adams (Kansas City, Missouri United States) 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
always love friends who get to know each other over the years, realize that they mean more to each other than mere friendship, and it grows into love. The sex scenes are very steamy & this is one book I constantly return to :)
Very Good Story June 21, 2010 Toby (New York and Aspen Colorado) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I enjoyed this book very much, I travel a great deal and therefore am very appreciative to good authors and only give five stars to those I believe tell a good story, have a great ending and have me wanting more. I don't always need all the sex or blood and gore, sometimes a romance, a love story or a drama is what I need. I highly recommend this book. And have recommended it to our book club in New York and Aspen,..I also recommend reading....The Boy He Loved - Obsession Into Darkness (Gay Suspense), Reflections In The Looking Glass - A Murder Mystery That Will Surprise you (Gay Murder Mystery), My Gay Socks (Gay Romance)and From Boys to Men (Gay Classic), you may also want to read,The Crane & Pelican (Gay Romance).
Short and sweet, with several hot sex scenes July 20, 2010 Charly T. Anchor (Texas) Warning: This review might contain what some people consider SPOILERS.
Rating: 8/10
PROS:
- Rhodes does a good job of delving into characters' heads and really examining how they're thinking and why they feel the way they do.
- I always find this author's sex scenes really hot--mostly because she tends to create characters who have been secretly pining for each other for years, so when they finally get together, it's emotional and explosive.
- I really like Al, Ben and Jeremy's roommate. He's blunt, accepting, and disarmingly charming.
CONS:
- It caught me by surprise when Jeremy finally confessed that he wanted Ben for as long as Ben would have him. The reason, I think, was that I had seen proof of Jeremy's soul-searching about his sexuality and his attraction to Ben in particular, but I hadn't seen Jeremy admit, even to himself, that he really wanted something long-term.
- There are some cliché remarks throughout the story about being true to yourself, family not having to be born into, etc.
Overall comments: This is a simple story about someone who's closeted working up the courage to admit his feelings for his best friend. It's not complicated or terribly original, but I liked the characters and thought that it was definitely worth a read.
