I liked that this novel was not about a wedding.
I disliked the amount of sex because it hindered the tiny and predictable plot. The first 50% had exceptionally boring dialogue but after that the story caught up.

Was this book perfect? No, but it was perfectly enjoyable and I loved it. The build of the relationship was so beautiful and exactly what I want in a romance. The ending was a little rushed but it still gave me closure so I am ok with it.
I was so carried away with the love building between the characters that I did not see the sex scenes as too much but a part of the journey. I thought it was beautiful and I will re-read this when I need comfort in the future.

Jon and Liam are hot together! Every time they come together it's like fireworks and romantic music and OMG! The make love like it's the last time every time! It's amazing. The connection and fire between these two just blew me away. Best couple ever!

Their exs are skank assholes, but they manage to overcome their stupid, messed up pasts and it's just awesome. I'm not a re-reader at all, but this is one book I wouldn't mind reading again just for the passion these two share.

Some of the sex was pretty repetitive and long. Sweet story line that made me want to read to the end.

I loved the passion between Jon and Liam. They were cautious at the beginning, and rightly so, since they were both coming off of breakups, but they found the right person, and that changed everything. The relationship was all about sex at first - because that's all they ever expected the relationship to be - but through their intimate interactions, they revealed deeper things about themselves. A well-written story that kept you wondering what would happen next.

Yaaaasssss! I loved this!

I typically don't do gay romance. I've done lesbian romance, and straight romance so this was different for me but I truly enjoyed it. And jeez Liam sounded hot!

4.5 stars from me

Updated review... 2/18/16. I didn't write a review the first time I read it even though I'm sure at the time I enjoyed it since I gave it five stars. I re-read it so I could read the newly added epilogue and I have to say it was like reading a new book, because it wasn't familiar to me this time. It has been six years and I have read 100's of books since then so it's not a surprise;-) It's nice to know I still would have given it a five stars. I enjoyed both Jon and Liam together they both so sweet. Both of their exes were douche bags though. Great read again ;-)

I enjoyed it, but it wasn't necessarily great. It's not a very original story and it was pretty predictable. The writing was great, but the spicy scenes were pretty repetitive, with each being almost the same. I did really like Jon and Liam though, I fell in love with them. I appreciated the undertone of self-acceptance and never settling for both characters with their individual issues. I think a lot of people can relate to that.

All in all I enjoyed this novel--I liked the main characters and how they learned more about each other as I did. I agree with some of the comments that there was a lot of sex in it, but I don't think it was purposeless in that it clarified the differences in their past relationships with how one that really worked could be--one with compromise, sharing, and genuine care about the other.

The other characters didn't have as much depth, possibly because they didn't really need to. They were there to augment Liam and Jon. To show, possibly, at least in Craig's case, that not only do we change as people once someone has left us (hopefully), but that the person we once worshipped as an ideal may be anything but once seen from a new perspective.
