Each book in this series seems so realistic to me. Now
granted that thought is coming from a heterosexual woman’s opinion on these
fictional men’s relationships. It’s just that Daisy has written these men in a
way that they seem so real to me. The emotions these guys go through just seem
to me as open heartedly genuine. Part of growing from teen to adult people
discover new things about themselves, they meet new people, and some move off.
Nick falls into most of the above. He has transferred into
Holsom College after spending several years at a neighboring school. He is
trying to fit in, get to know new people, and still trying to keep some of his
friends from childhood. The obvious thing with one of his childhood friends is
that he never realized he was attracted to him.
Gabe not only has a high functioning gaydar, but he can read
people exceptionally well. He knows Nick is gay. He also knows that Nick has
got a serious crush on his best friend. Gabe likes Nick. He thinks Nick is a
great guy and would love to be more than just friends with him. Gabe just needs
to figure out how to enlighten Nick into something he does not realize about
himself.
I loved Nick and Gabe. I wanted to scream at Nick a few
times. I guess like most people Nick learns things the hard way and sometimes
unintentionally hurts those that mean the most while learning. Gabe is a good
guy. I hated reading him being hurt. He was the perfect person for Nick though
when Nick was on the other side of those hurt feeling though. Nick and Gabe
made a great must read couple.
I just have to say that Nick and Gabe’s first kiss is
ridiculously hot! These two… oh my. There are so many things that are new to
Nick. Man on man loving is completely uncharted territory for him and reading
him and Gabe was just…wow. I mentioned above that this series has a very real
feel to me. Everything that happens between Nick and Gabe could easily be
something Daisy picked from someone’s real life experiences.
