Lust at First Sight #2
Tyler & Marco
First time meetings can lead to many things, but when you meet the one guy you're automatically attracted to—the chemistry sizzles. Strangers or not, it doesn't matter. It's lust at first sight and anything's game...
Shy and socially awkward Tyler has been watching the construction site across from his house secretly lusting for the hot guys that work there, but when he finally comes face to face with the hot and sexy Italian, Marco, it's lust at first sight! Marco is everything Tyler has ever dreamed of in a man, and his complete opposite in every way possible.
Marco's life is all about hard work. From the moment he left home just after high school, he'd forged his own way in the world without ever knowing real love. But when he meets the cute guy who lives across the street from his work, he instantly feels something sizzling between them. But Marco isn't out and not sure if he's ready to tell the world he's gay, or even his own family.
Both guys yearn for something more in life and after a couple rounds of hot sex, and another chance meeting, they come to see that possibly there is something more between them than just lust.

Review for The Romance Reviews:
http://glbt.theromancereviews.com/vie...
A sexy, sweet short with two wonderful male leads.
Tyler is a bit shy, a bit of a loner and spends most of his days ogling the men on the construction site across from his apartment. One man in particular draws his eye, a tall man with firm muscles that Tyler drools over more than once. Tyler is short and doesn't spend half his time at the gym so he thinks no one would be interested in him. Most people have called him 'cute', but 'cute' doesn't help him get a man. And he wants more than just one night stands.
Marco, the builder, is a hard worker and most of the time that's all he does. He has little time for evenings out and meeting someone special, even though that's what he wants. He decides one evening to go out and forget about work even if it's just for one night.
Tyler is dragged out by his friends one evening and bumps into Marco, the man he'd been ogling from across the street.
This was a wonderful, sweet story and I loved both Marco and Tyler. Both of them are bit insecure in their own way: Tyler because of his innate shyness and Marco because he is semi-closeted. He comes from an old-fashioned Italian family who consider being gay a sin and Marco doesn't know how to tell them.
Although short, it is a full, well-rounded story. The characterisation isn't skimped on and you do get to know Tyler and Marco a bit, it's not a just story about two male bodies. This is a story about Marco and Tyler.
There were was a big of angst about Marco coming out to his family, but overall it's a sweet read. The love scene was hot and sensual, although I did find it a bit strange that they made love that first night they met 'officially' as it were. Both of them however are keen for this to be more than a one-night stand and by the end of the story you hope it will work out for both of them. I think it will, they seem suited to each other.
A very enjoyable tale.

Hot, cute insta-lust romance between a shy office worker, Tyler, and a hunky construction guy of Italian descent called Marco. Tyler has come out but his parents are "ignoring his gayness" as he puts it. Marco isn't out, and lives in a tiny apartment just so he can have some sort of private life. And while I felt for them, and the story is full of heat and lust, I was unable to connect to them on an emotional level. I think it was mostly their total lack of maturity.But that is just me!
If you're looking for an entertaining, hot read about two men who finally find someone to call their own, you might like this short story.

I was given this book for an honest review: I love opposites attract and Marco and Tyler were definitely that. Tyler was a shy kind of computer nerd and Marco a big buff construction worker. Tyler spent hours watching the hot construction workers from his window thinking they never noticed him, but Marco did and thought Tyler was perfect for him. A chance meeting at a club one night leads to some very intense insta-lust and hot first time sex. I really liked this book and would have loved it to be longer. Seems like just when I am fully committed to the story it ends.

How did this get such high ratings? Hmmm.
I felt that the character development was stilted. Which was a shame because shy and socially awkward characters give me life. I just felt kind of like...meh, whatever. Didn't love it and didn't hate it, either. But I could have loved it...and therein lies the woe.
