reviews_and_ramblings | Fallen Angel by Sean Michael

Ben and Gabe are two grad students, living one near the other but they have never met. Ben studies Computer Science and Gabe Art. Ben is friendly and a partyman, Gabe is shy and all work. But when Ben sees Gabe, he immediately thinks to an angel, and he doesn't know that, for real, Gabe has tattoed two wings on his back (his real name is Gabriel). When Ben knows about the wings, it's like a sign: Gabe has to be his and he will not stop in front of nothing to have this man.

Gabe is fragile and very artist like. He prefers to let it speak his art and not him or his body. But Ben is overwhelming, both physical then mental, and he coaxes Gabe in this relationship. Sometimes I was wondering if what Gabe accepts to do is really his willing or is only what Ben wants... but at the end, love is also this, try to build something together, accepting all of your lover.

A short but enjoyble reading, about young love, when all is possible and life is still simple.
