Martin’s Reviews > Acting Out > Status Update

LOL, I admit I know such scenes. I can't take imagine they're real though. The whole "Oh but I've never done that with a man before" usually has me role my eyes. But damn, for poor Eli it's real....

“Growing up I would have given my right arm to have someone care about me the way you care about Joshua,” Eli confided.
Hamish stubbed out the cigar on the railing and draped an arm across Eli’s shoulder. “I’m sorry, man,” he said, resting his forehead against the side of Eli’s head. “That must have sucked.”

This is soooo good. I am literally melting!!

“Either way, thanks for trusting me enough to bring me to your home.”

I absolutely love how Eli is always polite and friendly. He's such a lovable character.

“Push for what?” Eli asked.
“Us doing a scene together,” Hamish said, clipping off the end of the cigar, bringing it to his mouth, and lighting the end.
“Oh? I never gave that any thought,” Eli said,

WHHHAT?! It's what I've been thinking of since page 5!!!

“Hi, Hamish,” the bubbly blonde behind the counter said in a flirty tone while she batted her eyelashes wildly. “What can I do for you today?”
Please, God. Please, God. Don’t let him say I need a dildo, Eli prayed.
“Oh hey, Bambi. My friend here needs a dildo,”

LOL!!

I have been looking so long for a book like this. I'm in love :-))))))

“And now?” Eli asked.
“If I met the right guy and everything was there? I would.”

OMG, YES!!!!

“So here’s one for you,” Eli said. “Have you ever had sex with a guy when you weren’t getting paid for it?”
“No! But,” Hamish said, holding up a finger, “it’s not because I wouldn’t. It’s because I never met a guy I felt an emotional connection to"

Aaaw that's EXACTLY what I wanted to hear :-)))

“I get what you’re saying intellectually. About the act itself not making you queer,” Eli shared. “But I grew up thinking that ass fucking and dick sucking were what made you queer.” Eli stopped and shook his head. “Man. That sounds so horrible when I say it out loud.”

He's a legit philosopher.

“Oh! Only that I have one more year until Josh graduates, and I give this life up. I love Royce and I always will, but I’ve got a good education, and I want a real life somewhere with someone.”

Aaah, with 'someone'. I knew this story has potential...
