Both the men were vulnerable for similar reasons, Kit as he struggled to reconcile the happy go lucky, no strings attached relationship with his deep feeling for Alden, and Alden with his tragic personal & family history, that he deals with by pushing others away, but he's unable to keep Kit at arms' length. I thought the author portrayed Alden's PTSD and agoraphobia with a great deal of delicacy and tack. The story was very well written, sometimes raw, and very honest. I liked Alden's Mom was a jewel. I hope Thomas, (Alden's likeable ex) gets his "Happily Ever After" someday. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
The reality of Alden...Arrogant. Aloof. Argumentative. Antagonistic. Angry. Alden Kaufman is many things, and none of them are nice. Trauma has left him deeply scarred and incapable of easy friendships. He doesn't know how to let anyone past his walls, and he doesn't think it's worth the trouble.The reality of Kit...Everybody's best friend, nobody's boyfriend. In spite of a lifestyle that doesn't invite attachments, Kit Taylor gets along with everyone he meets-except Alden. He can't entice his prickly co-worker out of his shell, and has given up on trying.The Reality of Us...Two men at odds with themselves and each other embark on what should be a simple team-building exercise, but nothing goes as planned. Unexpected intimacy and a freak accident leave Kit and Alden dependent on each other long after they leave the mountain behind. Now they have a choice-to continue as they've been, or trust a shaky new reality together. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

So why am I giving it an average rating? Well, the characters were really good, and the family stuff was really good, and the last chapter was really good. The author understood the assignment: entertain readers! Solid three stars.
It would have earned a fourth had there been, perhaps, one more line edit to catch the couple of times a final action wasn't taken. I don't know about you, but I keep expecting something bad will happen as a result--but it's just accidental.
The fifth star wasn't possible. There was too much sex, not enough communication. I know, it would've been a shorter story--but there needed to be more distraction, because that got kinda old.
And STILL I did enjoy like 95%, which is great. If the characters appeal to you, give it a try. ( )
