When to Hold Them
When to Hold Them: A Bluewater Bay Story | G.B. Gordon
1 post | 2 read | 2 to read
Doran Callaghan doesn’t know when to fold ’em. His gambling has landed him in debt and in jail, and now it’s got him stuck in the sticks in a reintegration program. He wants to turn his life around, but old habits come knocking, and some creditors are harder to shake than others. Xavier Wagner cares more about the National Park he works in than the people around it, until a stranger awakens desires he didn’t know he had. Doran’s natural submissiveness turns Xavier’s ideas of how to treat a lover upside down. But Doran doesn’t seem to know about boundaries—or even to have any—and Xavier’s not sure that Doran will say no if he needs to. Which means someone’s going to get hurt. While Xavier struggles with his principles, Doran’s past comes calling. Trusting each other is suddenly a matter of life or death, but Doran has to decide whether counting on Xavier—or himself—is a gamble he’s willing to take. NOTE: The Bluewater Bay stories are standalone titles that can be read in any order - enjoy!

Bailedbailed

This is an odd bail. I like both characters so much that I'm kinda doubting my decision to put their story aside, but I know if I did pick it up again I'd slide right back out due to the same two issues:

1. Much as I like the characters, I don't feel desperate to see them succeed as a couple.

2. The sex scenes aren't my brand of hot (WAY too much skimming and fingertip action; shudder) and there are tons of them.
