Blurb: It started with an accidental click…but where will it end?
Desperate to turn in a paper, Adam borrows his roommate’s computer and mistakenly opens a folder that contains Josh’s collection of porn. Adam had no idea that his jock roommate was gay—and into leashes, paddles and domination. And Adam, an inexperienced virgin who’s only ever kissed one guy, is surprised to find himself curious about submitting…
Josh can’t believe that his roommate discovered his spank bank—and he can’t believe that Adam is so turned on by the thought of giving up control to someone. Taking a chance, he offers to look through the photos with Adam…and maybe try acting some of them out.
Night after night, the boys delve into their darkest fantasies of domination and submission. And as lust and experimentation grow into the promise of something deeper, Adam must decide if he’s brave enough to tell Josh how he feels.
Review: What a sweet story this was! Adam was adorable, Josh was fantastic, and they were both really sexy when things got going. The blurb says it all – two guys who have been roommates for some time but never really connected until one day, Adam accidentally sees gay porn on Josh’s computer. Not just gay porn, but kinky gay porn. This stirs up all kinds of feelings in Adam, and when Josh catches him and they realize how they both feel about it, they decide to try some of the things seen on the computer.
I loved how these two moved forward with this. They tried something new, something a little more involved each time, being careful to stop along the way and discuss what worked and what didn’t. Of course, feelings grow, but Josh isn’t out to his friends at school, so Adam keeps his feelings to himself.
Eventually, they realize how strong their feelings have grown and what is important. They help each other along the way with different issues, but their kinky little sex sessions were the best. I’m not usually into young adult type stories, but I found this one to be really smexy and enjoyable. The story flowed, was funny, sexy and sweet, yet never went too far. I’d love to see a story about how these guys made out down the road once college is behind them. This is a fabulous story from first-time author Ms. McGregor, and I’m looking forward to reading more of her work.
Overall Impression: I loved it
