This 2nd book was the one I liked most of the trilogy(at least for now there are 3 books). Sean and Connor were cute together and also when they fought, they didnt leave years or weeks pass before they decided to talk again, bcs they were in love and couldnt stay away.
Connor is Adrian's brother, we saw him in the first book at Adrian and Tristan's wedding. Connor didnt have an happy life, like we know, his father was an asshole and first he tried to pray the gay out of him and then he pointed a gun to his face and kicked him out of the house. Luckily Connor had his aunt who took him in and gave him all the love his parents didnt have for him. When the story starts Connor is having a bad time. He saw his boyfriend of 2 years cheat on him on their bed and he is starting to believe that he will never fall in love again. He thinks that doing nameless twinks in the bars' bathroom is all he can have. On the first pages, we see him having sex with a random dude in a bathroom. I dont usally like to read about one of the MCs beind with someone else, but at least all this happens before he meets Sean.
Connor doesnt kiss his partners, he doesnt search for love, he just wants to stop thinking, for some minutes or hours, about all that he is missing in his life, something that his brother found with his husband Tristan.
When his boss asks him to go work in Florida as a bodyguard for a famous football player, he is happy to accept. Maybe there he will find someone new that will help him pass the time when he is not working.
Sean is 22 and an awesome quarterback, he is the star of his team, but he has a big secret. He is gay and no one, not even his best friend, knows it. Sean is scared of losing his job, and for this reason he never followed his desire for the same sex. One time he tried to have sex with a girl, but he hadnt liked it and soon after he had decided to stop dating. He is hiding behind lies, he tells his team mates that he has a long distance relationship or that he is having one-night stands, but the only true thing is that he is sad and alone.
When he meets Connor for the first time, he understands that he is in danger. The man is a wet dream and has all he would ever want in a lover, but he cant act on his desires.
Connor sees Sean for the first time on the field and finds him too handsome to be true, he is attracted to him and wants him, but he is on the job and doesnt have time for it, and anyway he doesnt want a relationship.
Those are their thoughts, but Love has other ideas.
They start passing a lot of time together, Connor is protecting Sean from a stalker, but something starts to grow btw them, they become friends and then something more.
The stalker is still hiding her face, but she doesnt stop harrassing Sean with gifts, notes and rose petals on the bed. She is really creepy and annoying and not even when I found out that the girl had PTSD, from the time she had been raped when younger, I pitied her, bcs a lot of people suffer but not all become crazy assholes. She was a damn bitch and almost broke them up with her threats of showing the video where Sean was giving for the first time in his life a bj to another man, to Connor, to the press.
The scene where Connor and Sean make love for the first time was sweet and romantic and when later in the book Sean will be on top, we see how hot they can be together.
I liked them, and also if sometime I thought that Connor wasnt really paying attention to his job, bcs the stalker was a bit obvious, a still liked the story.
There was a lot of angst, from the start till the end, but the worst part was when the stalker girl, sends them the video and tells Sean to break up with Connor or she will make the video public.
Sean doesnt know what to do, he loves Connor and he doesnt want to leave him, but he cant lose his job not when he is so near to be accepted in NFL, and he is sure the girl is spying them and can hear what they are saying or doing. Sean wants to come out when he is in the NFL, but not before, and he wants Connor with him, but now he doesnt have another option.
Connor and him fight and they break up. Connor leaves the room and turns off his phone. He runs aways from the hotel and doesnt stop till he reaches his room and then starts crying. He lost the only man he has ever loved, bcs he now is sure that what he had felt with his ex-boyfriend hadnt been true love.
While Connor is crying and still angry in his room, we see the stalker drung Sean. When he wakes up, he is tied to the bed and almost naked, that crazy girl wants Connor to see them together while they have sex. Luckily nothing happens, only a forced kiss the girl is able to take from Sean, but with Connor's help, lured back to Sean's room with a fake sms, they are able to stop that bitch, that was none other than the coach's daughter with that sad past I told you about before.
In the last pages of the book, we see Sean coming out to his team, before their last match, and then winning the game. Sure, not all the guys accept the fact that he is gay but most of them dont care about his sexuality, but only about the fact that he is a good guy and an awesome player.
In the epilogue we see them some years later. Sean is in the NFL and now married with Connor. They have a son, Colton that is 5 years old, and they are celebrating the fact that Sean won an award.
I liked this couple more than the other 2, (book 1 and book 3), and maybe the initial scene with that twink wasnt of my liking, but in the end all went well.
