I feel like this series isn't to be taken too seriously...saying that, I am kind of enjoying the mindless reading. Not as crack-tastic as say...Lynn Hagen, but still constitutes as guilty pleasure reading for me. I didn't enjoy this as much as that last one (the whole beginning icked me out. Not even the cuteness of the rest of the story made up for that squick factor.) Though I did read the whole thing and still want to read the next in the series. (especially since it looks like we'll finally be introduced to the shifters) The second in the series and you realize the author is building her world, adding characters and situation. The story of Josh and Mark is not so different from Mateo and Riley, they actually share the same cabin the previous couple did, the main difference is that, while in the previous couple Riley was playing straight, but well aware to be attracted to men, for Josh this is the first time he has real feelings for a guy. Truth be told, Josh is not so “unwelcoming” to this feelings, sure, he is worried, and a little scared, but never once he denies his feelings are real and not really trouble they are for a man. There are other things that Josh is worried about, mainly the fact that Mark was sexually abused and he fears his sexual interest will arise bad memories in the other man. These stories are delivering what you are expecting when buying them, i.e. hot strong men falling in love for the first time with another men. The author plays a lot both with the physical difference between the men, usually one is very muscular and macho man, while the other is lithe and sophisticated, but also with their social status; I’m not talking about money, since both men have jobs that allow them a good lifestyle, but more about the society they belong to and frequented until their meeting. In a way Josh is more rough, but he has also a very kind heart who is the right man for Mark now, a man in need of tender love. http://www.amazon.com/dp/1470033917/?tag=elimyrevandra-20 geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Like the first one, I had trouble connecting with the MC's. I found their "voices" unrealistic. Josh is supposed to be a battle-hardened assassin, yet he comes across as sappy and sickening sweet. Mark, a doctor has been kidnapped and brutally raped for three months, yet this seems to have very little impact on his behaviours after he gets rescued.
It's again a GFY, which I usually love, but the amount of sex... especially with Mark's history and Josh never having been with a man? Sorry, but very unrealistic!
So overall, this was rather a disappointment, and I think I better just give up on this series... ( )
