5 out of 5 stars Started poor, but finished strong!   February 29, 2008
I debated buying this book for several weeeks before I actually brought it, simply because I didn't like the cover! It said far too much as to the possible story and text inside - not a book for public transport!

However, despite a dodgy start (when I almost abandoned the book) it went from strength to strength. I got involved with the characters, both of whom are likable, and really championed them through the different events that mark their summer.

Although the book is supposed to be set over a period of months, during summer break, the way the story plays out it seems to only be weeks as the guys - Ryan & Scott - cope with many very adult situations.

Their independence is fun and exciting and the romance & love that eventually develop heartful and beautiful to read. There is also humour and some thundering sexual moments.

The writing isn't the best, so you must see through the grammar and punctuation errors and I found the early chapters confused and hardwork to read but stick with it. From mid-way through the text picks up and I personally found I couldn't put it (even on public transport - I didn't care anymore, i had to keep reading!).

If you enjoy gay romance, then this is for you - you won't be disappointed. I wasn't!

Enjoy!

This book is a must! The story of Scott and Ryan is incredibly well handled - it's not just full of sex (though there's plenty of that!) but it deals with real issues and emotions. Buy it today!

5 out of 5 stars A tender, erotic and heartwarming love story   September 20, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Scott and Ryan are high school guys in Califronia. Both are gay but Scott admits it to himself, and to one or two others, and is happy in his sexuality. Ryan has had more experience but so traumatic that he cannot come to terms with the fact that he is gay. The story is about how the two meet,are immediately struck by a mutual physical attraction and soon start a passionate affair. But the book is also about friendship, family, acceptance and the sheer wonder of love between two very attractive human beings. No one with any human feeling could be homophobic after reading this book. And the rest of us can enjoy its open and joyous portrayal of passion, beauty and love.
