Cameron Lewis bumps into his best friend’s kid brother, Noah Winthrop, at a seminar he teaches on pool safety and the past comes into the present. Cameron took Noah’s virginity at his best friend’s wedding and left without word the next morning. Noah is out to get even. Noah kept his torch burning for Mr. Anti-Relationship, Cameron, for years, never finding anyone to quite measure up. But now that they’re unable to keep their hands off each other, what does he have to do for Cameron to quit running?

This has to be my favorite KA Mitchell book! The characters are complex, the sex is sizzling, and the plot is perfect. I may sound like a M/M erotica newbie, but I learned a lot about male homosexuality as well—a definitely plus. I had no idea the intricacies between men in regards to top/bottom etiquette and how it can affect a relationship. Mitchell handled it very well, even using it to further the tension between Cameron and Noah. No other M/M erotica writer I’ve read has explored this area as well as Mitchell does with her characters here.

Mitchell’s characters have more personality in their right hand than a lot of people have in their entire being. It wouldn’t surprise me if Mitchell channels her characters them from the other side! I love how Cameron reacts to Noah’s innocence and vulnerability. The subtle use of body language is fantastic, making the characters whole and tangible. Her one-liners always pack a punch and leave me laughing.

Brava! Keep them coming!
