Chase Hansen. Broke. College drop out. Male stripper. My life wasn't at all what I imagined it would be. I should have been finishing up college, interning with a well-respected business, partying with my friends. But instead, I was raising my seventeen year old brother, struggling to make ends meet. Love wasn't even on my radar. Besides, what did I have to offer? A few crumpled singles pulled from my G-string? Defeated and exhausted, I knew I had zero chance of finding someone to love me just as I am.
Noah Carpenter. Angry. Betrayed. Doctor. Just when I thought my life was going exactly as it should, everything turned upside down. With my final rotation in medical school complete, I finally achieved my lifelong dream of becoming a doctor. What I never expected was to catch the man of my dreams in our bed with the man of his. Beyond infuriated, I struggled to piece together the remnants of my life. Just when I'd decided to give up on love altogether, I found a man who loved me just as I am.

I’ve been waiting for a new Melissa Collins' story for quite some time, and let me tell you, Noah and Chase, were definitely worth the wait.
I absolutely loved them both, I wanted to strangle them at times, but I still loved them. My heart broke for both Chase and his brother Benny. I can’t imagine losing your parents at such a young age and being forced to grow up so fast, but these brothers stick together and although it’s not easy, they make it work.
I loved how caring Noah was of Chase’s situation. I liked that he knew how to pick his battles and focused on the ones he could win, and getting Chase to see things his way was sexy to watch! (You’ll have to read it to find out) 😉
These guys had amazing chemistry and I loved taking this journey with them and while the push and pull was nerve-wracking, the ending was absolutely beautiful.
The story is well-written and filled with angst, heartache, but also friendship, tenderness, love and plenty of hot sexy times!
My dislikes of the story were that I felt they didn’t have enough solid time in their relationship. We didn’t really get to see them as a happy couple. I think that’s because they just weren’t happy with themselves. While likable, they were both very melodramatic and fought about silly things. Things that, in the grand scheme of things, really shouldn’t have mattered all that much. Still, it was enjoyable and definitely recommendable!
