Excerpt from #4—MOMENT OF TRUTH:
Arjen stopped when he was still a dozen feet away. “No,” he said. “Absolutely not.”
Max stretched out on the park bench, his fingers laced behind his head, and ran his eyes lazily up and down Arjen’s lean frame. “You look good.” Good enough to eat. Arjen glowed in the sunshine, with his sharply chiselled features, his dark hair ruffled by the breeze, a leaf or two catching in the collar of his coat. The chill had brought out the colour in his face.
“Why the hell did you want me to meet you in a park?”
“It’s sunny.” Max pointed out the obvious. Autumn was truly setting in now, a crisp bite in the air, the leaves starting to turn colours. Families strolled through the huge sweep of the park with their puppies and children scampering around them. Away down the tumbling slope, woodland gathered in a hollow, filling it with shadow.
Max crooked a finger. “Come here.”
Arjen folded his arms, staying right where he was. He was particularly handsome when he was smouldering like this, his dark eyes narrow. “I don’t think so, Max. This is just sex, nothing more. So I don’t see the need to hold hands in a park like we’re teenage sweethearts.”
Max’s jaw set. One day he was going to get through a conversation without Arjen coldly reminding him that Arjen had no interest in him whatsoever outside of bed. “You’re trying my patience, Arjen.”
“Your patience?” Arjen was getting steadily louder. Heads turned. “You wanted it like this. You kicked me out of bed the first time we slept together. You told me that this was nothing, it was meaningless to you. So we’re meeting to fuck. That’s all.”
That was it. Max jumped to his feet and stalked toward him.
Arjen held his ground, his chin coming up; he was four inches shorter than Max but rarely shrank like most people did when Max was looming over them. “You’re not going to—”
Max caught his face in both hands and kissed him. Hard. The fire of that first touch ignited in him, filling him with heat; he kissed him like there was no oxygen and only Arjen could save him from suffocating. Arjen melted into him like he always did, hands coming up to grip Max’s lapels, and Max slid a hand down his spine to yank him against him so tight Arjen gasped. He kissed Arjen into breathless silence before finally taking his mouth away. “No more talking,” Max said.

After reading Jem and Carlton I thought I'd give this a go and boy am I glad I did....although this is 95% sex you still get a story behind it....Max was a bit of an arse to begin with...All he wanted was to bed Arjen then move on....He was wrong...After he kicked Arjen out very nastily I might add he realised that he'd done wrong but Arjen really made him work to make it right.....All he needed to do was prove to him that he was sorry and by that he had to say those three short words.....This was an amazing read...I've read Sean Michael and if you love him you'll love this.....Arjen is just so sweet and loveable...Max is so demanding bt you do fall in love with him too......Arjens family were so sweet and loved Max...Cate (Arjens roommate)showed Max how he'd gone wrong and stood up for Arjen in just the right way without interfering....But Max's brother Tyler was a complete and utter bastard that Max was afraid off but the scene at the wedding brilliant then went home and said what Arjen wanted to hear...Totally recommended to read....loved it x

The very beginning is hot but there is to much sex in this book to the point you say to yourself "not again" lol. how many ways can you describe it. I did read the whole book and purchased several of his other reads. He is definitely an author worth exploring if you haven't already.
