BLURB:
Knox likes to blow stuff up. In fact, it’s his life. He’s got a reputation as the best demolition man in the business, at least until the enigmatic Isaac shows up and literally blows one of his jobs to kingdom come. Then Isaac invites himself to stay with Knox, leaving the big redneck wondering if he’s his mind, torn between telling Isaac off and taking him right to bed. Isaac is a lot older than he looks, and tired of searching through time for the one he loves. When he finds Knox he’s almost given up. He amuses himself with the youngster for awhile, but when he realizes things are getting serious, he runs, unable to bear the thought of losing Knox as he’s lost so many before. This time he’s not going to get away, though. Knox is a lot more tenacious than Isaac expects. They dream of each other while they’re apart, the past coming back to haunt them. Knox finds that he’s facing changes that he never expected, his need for Isaac far more than just a fleeting love. Will their hunger for each other eat them alive, or can they strike the perfect balance between the past and the future?
REVIEW:
I’m going to start this review by saying that I adore BA Tortuga and her stories usually bring me the greatest of joy, but this one really fell kinda short for me.
I usually start with a little intro of both main characters but the blurb really does that for me and I can’t really say anything else about it and that’s my biggest problem with this story.
There really is no story.
I mean, there’s a little bit and I can see where they author was trying to go with it and I still think the premise is really interesting. After the first chapter, however, there’s very few bits and pieces and it does get across the point. The rest of it?
Sex…a lot of sex. I don’t think there’s 8 pages in the rest of the book that aren’t describing some sexual act. And I like sex, don’t get me wrong, but when I got to the end of this story, I was still waiting for the story.
And also, this author writes great sex. It’s hot and steamy and genuine and I promise you it will get you hot under the collar. And the author also is fantastic at getting us inside the mind of two almost feral characters. They know how to get across the basic, primal feelings that don’t always translate well into words.
I wanted to love Isaac and Knox. But we really don’t get to know too much about them, especially Knox. They don’t really interact with any other characters beyond a few simple sentences here and there, so there’s not even that to work from.
And near the end I found that it got a little confusing. There was a time jump that sort of got lost a bit for me and it took me until almost the end to get it.
So why three hearts you ask? Because the author’s still brilliant. Their descriptive prose paints a very beautiful, sexy and detailed picture that made it easy for me to see these two men in my head.
I just wish they would have let me get to know a little more about them outside of their fantastically enthusiastic sex life, because BA Tortuga usually gives me men I fall in love with.
