Beautiful Disaster by J.M. Snyder

Corey and Ian are the 2ICE a pop duo loved by the fans, in particular female fans. Both very young, barely 20 years old, Corey and Ian react in different way to the sudden success: Corey loses himself in meaningless sex every night with a different female partner, and Ian loses himself in the alcohol. Both aren't finding in their escape way what they are searching.

Ian is in love with Corey, and he can't bear to see the man brings a different woman every night in his bed. Corey instead is searching to prove to the world that he is real, that he is not only an empty body on the scene; he believes that, giving a piece of him every night to a different person, he will at the end affirm that he is real, that he is a man and not a song.

But one night Corey realizes that he is tired to not knowing who is in bed with him, and when he turns around to find an help, Ian is there for him. Corey suddenly understands that the only real thing in his life in this moment is his friendship with Ian, a friendship that could be love. And since Corey associates love with sex, he now wants to move his relationship with Ian to the next level, to a sexual level. But Ian isn't willing to be one more body in Corey's bed, he wants to be the one and the only and he asks time to Corey.

Both Corey than Ian are very tender, and it's right for them to be so, since they are really young, not more teens but not yet men. Ian asks time like a old fashioned virgin maid, in a way he believes that giving up to Corey, allowing him to have his body, he would be consider "easy"; he wants to give to Corey his body along with his soul, he wants for Corey to really know him before allowing the man an entry to the altar of his body. On the other hand Corey is not the rakish man that usually seduces the virgin; Corey is as young as Ian, as in need of love as the other man. Corey pouts and whines, and he always obtains what he wants; but when Ian is not willing to let Corey in as soon as Corey asks, Corey didn't react with hurt, instead he becomes even more sweet and tender: not having immediately what he wants, makes Corey think and in a way, he becomes an adult even before Ian.

This is a very nice book, I always like when the characters are so young. Neither of them is a really dominant character, neither of the is a really fully grown man; it's tender to think that they will grow together and that they will be happy, since the bad world outside can't touch them.
