While the stories themselves were interesting and well written, they didn’t satisfy my craving to get to know these two men better. There were, for me, hints of character growth, but only hints. Many of the scenes felt incomplete in that they sometimes stop in the middle of the action. SUBlime – Collected Shorts (Master Class #2) by Rachel Haimowitz – C/C- This is a short (45 pages) collection of even shorter “scenes”. In fact, I felt I knew them better from their scenes in Power Play.
Devon is a big time movie star and Dom/sadist but we really learn very little about him. Nicky is a Broadway actor/singer and submissive/masochist who has come from money and feels guilty for things having come so easily to him. But it was really just the beginning of their story and there seemed a lot more to tell. I found both men fascinating and as with the Power Play books, I liked the writing style. I found myself dissatisfied because I didn’t get to know either character well enough. Unfortunately, the characterisation you can savor in a 290 page book such as either of the Power Play books cannot be found in anywhere the same degree in a novella. I already had SUBlime on my TBR having won it in a blog giveaway a while back but I wanted to start at number 1, so I went and bought Master Class. All of these authors are terrific and you can seek out more of their work on Class by Rachel Haimowitz – C After a smallish cameo by Devon and Nicky in Power Play: Awakening, I was curious to read their story. Want to try some excellent m/m romance? Here's my top ten list for new m/m readers. (And many of us writers think it ultimately has a social impact as well.) Eli's Top Ten List 2014: Many of us have never had to think about LGBT issues. These include things like being in the closet, being (supposedly) straight, being in denial, issues around school, a sports career, military or traditionally macho profession. M/m not only offers new character dynamics and new erotic possibilities, but also a host of new 'conflicts' and angst options, always a key part of any romance subplot. Many women find the idea of two men together particularly erotic.
Long-time readers of traditional romances may be bored with the same-old-same-old.Ģ. Why do women like m/m romance? Lots of reasons.ġ. Men make up part of the audience, but women are the biggest consumers. M/m romance is not all that different from traditional romance except instead a love story between a man and a woman, it's love story between two men. I became a reader of m/m romance after being exposed to m/m stories in fan fiction.
