This is my first entry into reading this genre, gay themed fiction written by women for women. There's quite a lot of it out there and I always assumed it was too heavy on the romance for me so I never picked it up.This book is the first entry in a series and is the perfect length for an introduction to this genre. The story moves quickly and the author creates some believable scenes and interesting characters.Basically a shy man meets another through a chance encounter, they make a date, they have sex (the sex was good!) and end of book, with a couple plot twists along the way. I found the romance was not too heavily pushed, the characters were fully formed and I enjoyed the author's note at the end explaining where the characters and story came from.I will read more from this series, good job. This first book In the Petit Mort Series was actually my favorite (because I read the whole series in one day and am now writing all the reviews...)Tommy is painfully shy and very non-agressive. Nathan is the exact opposite. After a meeting with a nun at a chocolate and coffee shop, that says she can help him with a series of self help emails guaranteed to help turn his aura bright yellow, Chance the shop's owner offers him a better solution. He sends him to a psychiatrist that frequents the shop. Ironically that is how Nathan "drops" into his life. And it turns out to be better than any therapy he could have.I am intrigued by this series. At the heart of it, the story is a contemporary romance. There is obviously something paranormal at work, but at this point it's hard to say exactly what it is, but I know what it revolves around....
Do You like book Hue, Tint And Shade (2010)?
This was a short sweet read. I really enjoyed it and can't wait to read the rest of the series.
