BLURB:
Jaydon can’t afford to lose a bet he’s made, so when the sweet as sin Eluin offers him The Contract, it may be exactly what he needs. Or is it? Things get a little twisted with the cheeky demon being around.
The number of demons in Jaydon’s apartment grows, with Eluin’s big brother Eluel and his wayward lover Sam showing up. The couple is at a breaking point in their own on/off relationship and this time getting back together seems as probable as hell freezing over.
REVIEW:
I don’t really know what to think about this book. It seemed fractured. Not at all together. And I honestly felt like the story should have been split in two, as far as the brothers stories, or maybe this story should have been longer to accommodate both of them being in the same story. The plot of the story, as far as Jaydon, seemed like a good idea, it just….needed something. It felt thrown together.
Jaydon lost his boyfriend. Which was actually a good thing considering what an ass he was, but Jaydon got propositioned by a guy at work and now he has to figure out some way to get his ex back. When he gets home, there is a young man who knocks on his door. Eluin gives Jaydon a chance to get his ex back with some help or Eluin gets his soul. On top of this Eluin’s brother, Eluel is in and out of his apartment with his so called boyfriend, Sam. And things are chaotic with them. It’s a mess in his life and he has to figure it out.
This is where things get weird with me. I get that contract business with Jaydon and Eluin. But it got complicated? I guess. Instead of the contract being fulfilled, things changed. But the biggest thing that threw this book off for me was Eluel and his whatever lover, Sam. Their relationship and what they were going through was a whole other story to me and just didn’t fit. And Jaydon and Eluin’s relationship was just rushed and stuff. I don’t know. I wasn’t happy with the book overall. I don’t know what else to add to be honest. It was a good idea but there needed to be more to the story or something.
