Leading Man by Gabrina Garza

[reviews_and_ramblings]

All right, with this one Gabrina Garza broke one of the sacred rules of romance, can't say what since in a less than 60 pages book it would be like telling all the story, but enough to say that I'm still perplexed...

Xander and Lil are Hollywood sweatheart, both actors, both young. Xander in a stasis phase, with his career that is not going nor up or down, and instead Lil trying to climb the Hollywood Hills. There is no much fidelity between the two, but Xander would never leave Lil, both for public reason than for a strange sense of responsibility: Xander knows that Lil is like she is since she fought the artificial world of the show business and in a way or another she managed to survive. Probably Xander also admires the woman, even if she is no more the person he wants beside him. More and more Xander is realizing that he is attracted to men, even if he couldn't possibly give up to temptation. Till the night Angus knocks to his door.

Angus is a young uprising actor. He always had a thing for the handsome Xander, like a fan for his favorite actor. And when he has the chance to be near him, he drops all the inhibitions. But Angus is too naivee for the show business world, and Xander knows better.

Actually the book is all in a night, from mid-afternoon to the wee hours of the night. A lot happens but at the same time nothing happens... I'm too cryptic?

I'd not against the idea of the author to pick up again this trio, Xander, Angus and also Lil, and tell us a bit more on them and their story.
