Unbreakable

by J. Rocci

Two years have passed since the war, but Sir Kaden fears that his recent injuries on a mission for the king have stirred unpleasant memories for his lover, Lord Yanisin. Their once casual relationship is tested as the tension between them rises the longer things are left unsaid. With some outside prompting, Kaden resolves to help Sin lay the past to rest, whether the other man welcomes his attentions or not, and hopes that their relationship will come out stronger than before.

I like to try books with lower ratings. I often don’t agree with high ratings when everyone loves a story, and sometimes I like books that no one likes. That was not the case with this one.

I found it difficult to care about the characters. Some of that was the poor choice of words that often pulled me from the fantasy and distracted from the storytelling... the emphasis on telling. The rest, they didn’t feel real to me. I wasn’t getting lost in the story of these two men; I was simply reading the words telling me about them.

There’s potential here, but sadly, it wasn’t met. The blurb holds more promise than the story could fulfill. I think it could, too, fulfill that is, if given more time in revisions and the love of a tight editor. So, overall, while this story is only “ok” it won’t deter me from trying another story by J. Rocci.

This interested me, but I felt dropped into the middle of a complicated story, and thus missing too much.

Second time reading this short story. I did like it the first time and still do and I get this funny feeling I've read a story about Theron and Jadzia before -go figure, uh.
