Tight, Dark Places by Bryn Colvin

Tim is a PhD student. He is more a type of lab study but he has a crush on Rowan Cleeve, a field type professor. So he has chosen him as tutor, to be able to be near him without suspect. But one night they remains trapped in a cave and before they get free, they share a night in which something happen that will change forever their relationship.

Tim is a shy student, but not weak. When he wants something, he knows how to get it. And Rowan is a surprise: I will not reveal in which way he will surprise you, cause in a pretty short book, less then 40 pages, maybe it's the one thing that made the book worth to be read.

So for a short novel, Tight, Dark Places is rather good, well plotted and enjoyable.

Sex, Lies and Celluloid by Jodi Payne & Chris Owen

If there is a thing I hate is a cheating man and maybe this is the reason why I didn't read soon this book. In the blurb you read pretty clear that Daniel is a cheating husband who hooks up on internet for sex. So adds promiscuos to cheating. I should hate this man. And instead I was fascinated by him like Shane, the PI Daniel's wife has hired to tail her husband.

Jodi Payne and Chris Owen have the mastery to decipt a character that gains your sympathy instead of hating him (truly I should have remembered first that Chris Owen has made the same with another cheating character, Tor in Bareback).

So the story is pretty simple: Daniel is cheating on his wife with other men (have I said it enough time in my pretty short pill review? :-) ), Shane finds it but finds also himself falling in love for this man and having no courage to unmask him with his wife. But Daniel is also a politician, and being gay and at the same time married is something that can destroy his career. And then, even if Shane manages to get to know Daniel, how can he say him that he was been paid to tail him? How can Daniel trust him anymore?

Daniel is a strange character. I could say that he is pretty driven by his lust. He is not kinky or bad, he really is a good man, but he likes sex and tries to find it where he can. But even if he has always a onestand encounter, he manages to take intact his good image and this aura of nice guy.

Shane sells himself short. He is really a good guy, gentle and caring. He has also a conscience, he is not the typical cynical private investigator. He is also the type who go every sunday night to dinner with his mother. And blushes. He is so cute, not in a physical way, but for attitude. He is a guy who believes in love forever.

So both Daniel and Shane are characters who act badly, but who are also so nice that you can't not love them. And I have to say, if you have my same prejudices about cheating man or promiscuos sex, try to pass over and read this book: it will be a very nice discover.
