REVIEW:
Tom can’t help it, every time his mind wanders to Matt, the delivery man.
Tom has enough men around for a hot quickie at home, or get face fucked in a cubicle by a stranger, mostly straight men.
But Matt is, oh yes, he’s thinking again about Matt because he is something else, Matt is a nice straight bloke, an ally.
They connect wonderfully.
Matt needs a friend, Tom can do that, he can be a friend, and still fantasize a little about Matt.
The story is told by Tom, in between his encounters with Matt we also get to know him in other ways.
He’s quite laid back, he lives a content and satisfying life.
He’s not looking or in search of a permanent relationship, but also not averse to it.
He goes with the flow. Still, Matt is in his head on a daily basis. He wants to be his friend without a hard-on in front of him, and that’s a bit of a problem.
They are the same age, lived and live a totally different life. I’m not spoiling in what way!
Their friendship is precious. They are honest and open to each other, open to everything btw!
Watch them and enjoy the exploring, eagerly learning, and hot encounters.
While Tom isn’t a monogamous guy to settle down, the question is, is Matt?
At some point, something changed, and asked for some introspection.
It’s a quite lovable story, consistently written so Tom and his mind felt constant. Through his point of view, we get to know Matt.
I loved the attention to all the little details. It felt honest and intimate.
The atmosphere is mellow, the flow comfortable, and the sexual encounters hot AF.
I have a few tiny complaints, first, the blurb is very short, you can use a blurb to mention some content, second, I was a bit surprised by the slight mfm (more a mf) encounter. Third, reading the word ‘mate’ 155 times was a bit much.
End conclusion: Besides the beautiful cover!!, it was certainly a nice read, I had a few relaxing and enjoyable hours.
