How was it?

I’ve had The Harbinger series for years – I’ll get to them promise – but this is my first Keegan Kennedy book, and boy was I not ready for this. For some reason I thought it was a sweet little MM romance. It’s not, not really. It’s almost pure erotica with just enough story – to keep edging ;), I’m joking – to justify the romance label.

The story is hot, there’s enough of build up, a raw primal quality between the main characters interactions and in their intimate scenes, but there are quite a few things that dampened my enjoyment. Dane’s whole confession about when and how he first got attracted to Lucas was a tad creepy for me, and then Dane’s attitude about being the man and wanting Lucas to be his kept woman was unnecessary. At least he didn’t mind him going to college.
Besides that the way Kennedy made some intimate practices, that hold no interest to me, hot and entertaining is a skill. However there were few parts of it that I zombie read* but overall I liked it enough to seek out other books he wrote in that genre and bumped The Harbinger up a few spots on my TBR list.

Homecoming is available on Smashword, Amazon, Audible and other book retailers near you.
