BLURB:
Dylan has been curious for a long time, but is he ready to confront his desires?
A difficult decision
Dylan Martin has worked in the same Ogunquit hotel since he was eighteen, and he knows the drill: anything that might damage the hotel’s reputation has to be reported. So telling the uptight manager there’s a gay porn shoot about to take place should be a no-brainer.
Except Dylan recognizes one of the performers. He’s been watching Mark Roman’s scenes for so long, he could describe every inch of Mark’s ripped body, from the silver at his temples and in his beard, right down to the tattoo on his ass. Not to mention Mark’s sexy smile that sends heat hurtling through Dylan every time he sees it.
But if Dylan says nothing, it’s his job on the line. And then his hand is forced…
An eager student
Mark’s shoot is a bust but there’s a silver lining, in the shape of a cute, sexy guy in the local bar. Except the guy seems familiar—and nervous—and suddenly it’s clear who let the cat out of the bag. When Mark jokes that Dylan owes him a scene to make up for it, Dylan refuses point blank, but the longing in his eyes is hard to ignore: Dylan obviously wants him, even if he can’t bring himself to say it.
Mark wants to be the one to undress him, to show him how sensual a man’s kiss can be. He wants to set Dylan on fire, to make him shudder with pleasure. Most of all, he longs to hear his name on Dylan’s lips when Mark brings him to the edge.
It won’t be any more than that. Mark’s ‘career’ has proved a stumbling block in the past, and he doesn’t expect Dylan to be any different.
Mark may know a lot about desire, but Dylan’s about to give him a lesson in love.
REVIEW:
After some introduction about both men, what’s going on in their current life, with friends, family, and work, the story works up to the moment they’ll meet.
Dylan, secretly, watches every movie with gay porn star Mark Roman. His best friends assume he’s straight, he tells them anyway, but he’s certainly bi-curious.
Dylan can’t believe his luck meeting Mark in the hotel Dylan works. It seems Mark will shoot some film.
After being banned from the hotel Mark’s way split with his co-workers. Then he meets the cute guy from the hotel again. Dylan is different, they talk and Dylan isn’t asking for selfies or porn stories. They clicked, as friends, of course, nothing more.
Mark is lonely, Dylan is great company, he knows Maine and shows Mark around.
Their friendship is precious, while they are quite different, in years, work, and personality, they have similarities where they can give each other some hard needed support.
At some point, there is a drastic turn with their involvement.
I must confess it took me a while to warm up to the story and both guys, separately I liked them, together not so, for me it was all way too sweet and even a bit *whisper* boring.
But on the way it got much better for me, the connection between them got stronger, more palpable, there was some more excitement and I felt more connected.
The writing is smooth, friendly, and captivatingly streamlined.
A sweet story, not my favorite of this series, still enjoyable, we meet all the Maine Men again, and in the center is granny, I loved that.
Looking forward to the next installment.
