Hot Weather by Matthew Haldeman-Time

[reviews_and_ramblings]

All right I'm a fangirl. I absolutely love every books written by Matthew Haldeman-Time. His characters are real, hot, romantic, great.

In the Guys in College anthology there are two stories (Incredible+Stupid Question and Two Bodies) that I have read more and more time without feel tired. And Off the Record is a classical old Hollywood comedy.

I like above all when he tells us about those guys not still men, 18-25 years old. Young but adult, they have the world in front of them. And love is soo sweet.

John is just out of college. This is his first summer as salary man and he has to work. He misses his student summer when he spent the day doing nothing apart sex and fun. Now he is stuck in a work he can't convince himself to like and the city is cover by a sweat heat. Then he meets Keith, twenty years old college student, who has to work on summer to pay his tuition. Lean, friendly and open. John thinks to make score with him: after few days of flirts and glares, John makes his moves and... Keith stops him.

"I’m not saying that I’m looking for the love of my life right at this instant, but there’s casual sex and then there’s a string of one-night stands, and I like my sex a little less casual, these days. Maybe it’s the hopeless romantic in me. I read too much..." Oh sweet Keith, so cute... he reminds me someone I have known recently.

And so we suffers with John as the book goes on and the sexual tension grews: please Keith, please... and Keith, bless him, in the end, surrenders his body (and his heart along with it) and I will sure you, the prize is worthing the wait! And now I'm like John, and I say: please Matthew, please... give us more, I will read it!

And in this case the cover, even if it's not bad, it says nothing about the book! Don't fool yourself, this is a story for sweetheart...

Ciao Maximilian. You should check the LJ of Josh Lanyon (Do you know him? he is the author of the Adrien Mystere Series, I will reccomend to you): he is writing a book on How to Write M/M Fiction and he ask opinion to his readers jgraeme2007. He has interviewed me (I was sooo surprise when he has written to me to ask an interview, to me???) some weeks ago and I can't wait to buy the book (even if I'm not a writer)... Elisa

Dear Elisa

I checked his blog. It's very interesting.(Yes, dialog problem. Since no-one of my characters are English-speaking...)

Why not? You have read so many books. Who should I ask opinion? Of course, Elisa!

(Blush). When I read some very good reviews (not mine, mine are only brainstorming...) I recognize the REAL reviewer. Mine are only personal opinions and flash of book. A way to chat with friends. Elisa
