Reviews

[Jodi Ciorciari-marinich · Rating 3 out of 5]

Gideon has written a very short story about Bradley. Bradley has not been with anyone for 11 years while he was taking care of his ill parents. When his parents pass his is still lost and doesn't know what to do next. While he is at work he gets hit on by Lee. What starts out as Bradley going to Lee's to watch a movie turns into the best night of his life. I enjoyed the beginning of this story but would have liked a longer version. It would have been good to see Bradley come out of his shell with Lee's help. If you want a quick hot love scene read then this is a story for you.
This is the first story I have read from Gideon but would definitely be reading some more.
