The Syndicate by Jules Jones & Alex Woolgrave

This is the first time I have read the series by Jules Jones and Alex Woolgrave.

Allard was a computer geek with some attitude problem: he doesn't like to receive order and doesn't like to be treat like a number. So he decides to join a crew of stranger people that has made a syndacate. He will be the sysadmin.

Vaughan was the crew's engeneering and also the captain, even if he doesn't like the be call "captain". He is an hunk man with a tender heart. He likes Allard from the very first time and soon he manages to have him in his bed.

But Vaughan understands very well that the grudge behaviour of Allard is due to his fear of the personal relationships and he achieves to gain his trust step by step.

All the book is soffuse with an happy humor and the sex scenes are lightly and enjoyable.

I will look forward to read the next books in the series that I will go to buy soon after I finish to write this post

The Syndicate 2 by Jules Jones & Alex Woolgrave

In this second enstallment of the adventure of Allard and Vaughan we read of the growing relationship between the two, and how this relationship become stronger.

Allard learns to overcome his fear in let his companion takes control and Vaughan become more confident that Allard will not go away from the Syndacate.

Even if this series is setting in the future, the day to day problems are the same of today: how can I trust my partner with my heart? can I surrender to him without the fear to suffer? Will he stay with me forever?

In all the reviews I have read for this series, the main aspect is the humor; instead I find that the strong factor is the romance between Allard and Vaughan: they are two adult men who choose to stay together, who are aware that their relationship is not mere sex and that they can build something together.

I really am enjoying this series. I found it after reading Dolphin Dreams by Jules Jones. According to the author's website The Syndicate series is no longer in publication and the Vol 1 & 2 Omnibus is only available used. In the meantime the author has made all four of these books available on his website for free reading/downloading.

Yes, you are right. This is one of my older review so it's not up to date. Elisa

Oh yes, I noticed the post date was in 2007. ;) I've been using your journal to track down interesting new and undiscovered slash fics and I use people's comments to help me decide if I should buy and read a fic. I figured I'd post the update on this story to help out anyone else who was interested in reading The Syndicate.
