As with the previous novels in this series, once I started reading it was hard to stop, and at the end I wanted the next one Right Now. (Must finish other books I'm reading first.) It is a joy to read an ongoing relationship that they make work not despite their pasts or failings, but because they support each other through them, though from Vic's point of view it seems haphazard. (That's Vic.) Go start reading this series! ( )

Oooh, looks like Jacob has a darker side as well… I loved him in this book (even if he did some things that made me mad, too...). That psychic kink of his is ridiculous, though! ( )

Have I said how much I like Gomez Pugh yet? Most excellent.

[ETA 03/08/22] - Mr. Pugh just gets better and better with each listen, as does the series. ( )

The author's note at the end pretty much sums up my thoughts on the whole jealousy thing, even though I think that Jacob has more reason to be jealous, coz he isn't the one imagining Crash naked all the time. But anyway... I didn't expect Vic to react the way he did. I mean, it's Vic; burying emotions deep down, or outright ignoring them is more his speed. But what the author said, totally makes sense. I liked that we saw something different from Vic. His outburst really shook things up. And I feel he grown as a person since the first book. Now I feel he isn't just going along with things, but taking up the reins (sometimes). He is gaining confidence.

Jacob....JacobJacob. There is a fine line between persuasion and manipulation and to me it felt like what he was doing is more of the latter. Then again Vic was obviously aware of what Jacob was doing and he let it happen. Hell, he even liked it. Which brings me to the sex. ............. Good job Vic! *applauds* :)

Jacob's good boy image was tarnished a bit here. He was not as professional this time, regarding the case. He simply lost his cool. Also I wondered why not just partner Vic with him, but I see now that they couldn't possibly work together. Too much distraction. :D

I'm pretty sure 80% of the book I was grinning like a lunatic. And I'm starting to like Crash, is that weird? .-. ( )

Secrets indeed! We are finally starting to find out what makes Vic tick and he finally starts to figure out what is really going on in his world. I love that he and Jacob are trying to live together and see those sexy men try to get it right. Vic is so used to being on his own that he doesn't know how to let Jacob in 100%, but he is getting there. I am really looking forward to more of these guys! ( )
