Oh! I made an erroneous assumption: this story *stayed* minimal physical intimacy! The denouement was just that, everything that should be in it was. Still, disappointing because, although I prioritize plot and character growth and hate PWP sex stories, I do like me the clichéd m/m convention of "biggest" sex act for commitment.

Wonderful story! But a big boo-boo, in my opinion, to have the final, biggest physical intimacy (one of the conventions of the m/m genre) after the final conflict and as part of the denouement. The story is already done. The reader is not committed to stick around--the tension is gone. All is well. Thus the impact of emotion for what should be an incredibly emotional scene is almost nonexistent.

Still having a sensational time with this book, but I do find it hard to believe that MCs haven't the chance over ten--ten!--years to share their secret love for each other. lol. Seriously dudes?

*claps hands delightedly; eyes sparkle; grin spreads* Finally, a story with engaging, believable characters who speak winning dialogue and have a fascinating quest in a brilliantly and creatively described world. And sexual tension!
