Fun book in which a young man recently graduated from college becomes a kept boy of a wealthy man. He wants to have a life of his own as well as his own money and seeks employment in the Mall of the Universe where they live. He meets several new people at his job both good and bad. With the help of some of these friends he leaves his lover for a bit and near the end comes back. It's actually set in my hometown which was a real kick. It had me hooked on page 3 with "The hair that ate Terre Haute." ( ) Derek is looking for a job and finds a lot of new friends, but will it help him to get rid of his status as kept boy? Is Vienna able to conquer her past to find a future? And what about sweet Davii and sexy (no not gay) Christian. They all meet up in this typical melting pot of T.J. Beck writing to find out more about themselves and others. Interesting as it is, it´s not the best of Timothy James Beck, but anyway, a wonderful and nice read for the weekend. I wanted to love the book so much because I enjoyed reading about the characters and their development as the story progressed. However, because of my eagerness for something to happen between Derek and Christian, I was a little disappointed when Christian's character was reduced to almost nothing of importance to Derek's love life. I don't buy Hunter's hesitation in telling Derek the reason why he did not want Derek to work (as a shoe salesman). I do know of people who find it difficult to say 'I love you' but the shoe issue is a no-issue. I find Hunter's character a waste, and the same goes for Pro. It is so difficult to imagine Pro's disapproval tone of Derek at the beginning of the novel. And why is a person of Derek's qualification settles for a shoe salesman? Nevertheless, I still like and enjoy reading Timothy James Beck's work, that so much so, I immediately purchased his other novel - It Had To Be You. This was a fun and enjoyable book, but there wasn't any sort of deeper meaning to it. In the end, that was just fine. It was more of a romp with a happy ending that eclipsed the drama and angst throughout the novel. You kind of knew how things would end and were happy that they sorted themselves out. It was almost bit too much, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. This was great! I loved all of the characters, okay all except for Riley. I would love for there to be more about these people. Vienna, and Christian, and Davii, and Derek were fantastically brought to life. The scene with the bull had me laughing so hard that I had tears streaming down my face! Timothy J. Beck has become an auto buy...I could easily read this over and over again. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
