On this whole this is a good story because Brent was the hero and he carried the story for me. I loved him, his compassion and his determination to break down Kyle's walls. I was sighing happily in the end because he was happy at last after two years of waiting patiently.

4 stars for this perfect love in the perfect world book romances!

The romance between Ben and Micah was very sweet, extremely steamy, and believable. There were quite a few excellent conversations between not only Ben and Micah, but also with Ben and his brother and brother's friends. ... The narrative of this story was wonderfully engaging, providing the reader with the sense that they are living the story. I loved this book and highly recommend it to those who enjoy character-driven romances.

It has been a long time since a book grabbed me like this simply based on the connection and dialogue .. Reg and Jeremy who Reg eventually calls JJ build a wonderful friendship, the author created some wonderful dialogue, adorable banter and exchanges between these two that often had me grinning from ear to ear. Reg and JJ form a true bond, they come to rely on each other before they even become intimate. As these two gradually step into each others personal space, the reader can feel the attraction they share ...And when they do connect it was electric and it brought the emotions into the sex ... Reg and Jeremy truly fit into each other lives; they learned to live in each others space. This was book about two men, two adults finding a happy they never dreamed of with each other. In the end, the happy created for Reg and JJ warmed my soul.

A very unusual pairing in the shifter genre and I soon learned that the two authors happily left behind any shifter cliche I could think of :) The hawk alpha may be strong, but he's also small like avian shifters in this book tend to be. He is also a control freak, who craves to release the control in bed. The bear shifter is even stronger and dominant in his human form when he is in bed with his lover, but he is usually completely tame and couldn't hurt a fly as it seems. He's even a vegetarian (like me – yay!) and it makes for very striking oppositions between the characters! …I loved that they aren't just opposites, they complete each other and there was a lot of chemistry from the very first time they met… One of my favorite aspects was the different take on bonds. Well, let's say the different perspective one of the MCs had. Insta-love is usually not my cuppa, so I applauded him for not letting fate determine his destiny but for wanting to take destiny into his own hand and make his own decisions… The animal halves seemed to be a big part of the characters and I loved the mythology of this world and the heartbreaking backstory of one of the MCs. I also really enjoyed the secondary characters in this town and it was fun to watch the characters interact ;) … I can really recommend this book. Try something that's…
