Not exactly great literature, but a quick read with lots of (repetitive) sex between two different male couples. It's two novellas, the first following Coloradan Jed and his new lover ("Hot Shots"), the second following Jed's brother Ross and his new lover at an Army base in North Carolina ("Ciphers.") Not much character development, but that might come in the sequels. Although the sex might be the main attraction, the personal stuff is more interesting, and Jed's story the better of the two since it includes some interaction with his mother, who is an interesting character, although not a major one. (Hopefully Ross will stop using the endearment "Baby," which is annoying to a reader as well as to Kevin.)

As with other Torquere books, the printing isn't first rate. Even thought there are 196 pages, the margins are very wide abd there are lots of chapters, meaning some pages are only a few sentences long. Plus the text is not fully justified.
