I really loved the synopsis of this book and overall I did enjoy it.

Troy has been in a relationship with his school sweetheart for a number of years but now they are reaching their mid-twenties, the once flush of passion has slowly dwindled to nothing. They are more like ships passing in the night rather than the hot lovers they used to be. Feeling a need to start taking better care of himself and get his physique back to that it was when he did sports, he plucks up the courage to join a local gym. It was whilst sitting outside trying to push himself to go in that he first meets Mikah.

Mikah is one of the fitness club personal trainers and when he sees the man sitting in the car, he approaches him to give him the boost he needs to step inside. Both are surprised later to find out that Mikah has been assigned to Troy as his trainer.
Over the weeks the pair strike up a friendship but it’s when Mikah reveals his personal side and his problems with his boyfriend that Troy finds himself thinking of, and looking at Mikah in a new light.

I instantly did like both Troy and Mikah. However when they test out the change in their relationship I did expect Troy to have more misgivings and concerns for how his feelings had changed and how he was suddenly lusting after a man. It didn’t pan out if this was a GFY or if Troy was actually bisexual. There were also a couple of typos and grammar errors which I usually don’t mention in my reviews but in this instance it did irk me a little.

Overall though it was a quick, sexy and enjoyable read. It could actually have been a five star if a little longer which would have enabled the development of the intensity of the passionate pair and also the soul searching that I feel Troy would have gone through. 3.75 stars
