Greyson Fox, the man, the myth, the legend. The highly sought after, self-proclaimed permanent bachelor. Or so the rumor mill goes. Sure, I’ve heard it all – but the one that stung the most was being called a heartless bastard. Love ‘em and leave ‘em, that one in particular I found to be the most humorous since only one man had ever shared my bed more than once, and he’d long since passed away.

I wasn’t the heartless bastard they all proclaimed me to be, but life had a way of kicking me in the teeth…Repeatedly, so I shut my heart off.

For years I thrived, building my empire and living by my own rules. Until one day, the walls came crashing down around me.

Potential trigger warning:
This book contains brief descriptions of human sex trafficking, as well as two mentions of sexual abuse, including a brief description of oral abuse and an attempted sexual assault. There is some physical abuse by the syndicates hands and a drug overdose so if those are trigger points this may not be the book for you.



4 Stars

First thing first, this cover is gorgeous and very fitting for the image I got of Greyson in my mind, although he kind of looks older than the forty-something he's supposed to be.

The book tells Greyson's story since he was young, showing the reasons for him not dating anyone and denying himself the chance of loving (and losing) someone again. Of course, even if Greyson is determined not to love again, he meets a gorgeous, younger man and after spending the best night of his life with him, Greyson ends up running away from him, even if he can't forget about him. Two years later, fate brings them back together, and Greyson decides to win Samuel over, but someone else has his sights set in Samuel, as well.

Frankly, I thought this book was going to be somewhat darker, because of all the warnings, and while yes, I could see why they were there, it wasn't nearly as bad as I expected. Vague, much? LOL Anyway, the first half of the story was a bit slow, a lot of telling and not that much showing. Still, I liked seeing how Daniel and Greyson met and how their relationship progressed. They were sweet together, even if Greyson didn't really have the chance to explore the dominant side of his sexuality with Daniel. And then we have Samuel, who was pretty much the opposite to Daniel, a younger, sexy, little thing with all that righteous anger directed at Greyson after the way he ran away after their passionate encounter. It was refreshing to see Greyson pursuing Samuel and I thought they had a lot of chemistry. I would've liked that Greyson had to grovel some more to Samuel, but it worked well in the end, since we got to see more tender, passionate, intense moments between the two.

I liked to see Butch, Keegan and Greyson working together to protect Samuel, and I wanted to slap some sense into Samuel when he put himself in harm's way, although at least he accepted it had all been his fault, so there's that. The case was interesting and it made the second half of the story flow better.

Overall, Greyson Fox was an enjoyable read, entertaining and sexy. I wouldn't mind reading Keegan's story, I have a feeling he'd be a fascinating character. Recommendable!
