So I loved [b:Heaven|3236765|Heaven (Heaven Sent, #1)|Jet Mykles|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1306077372s/3236765.jpg|3271400], and thought it would be hard to top. Johnnie and Tyler grew on me in such a short time, and I didn’t really like Luc in that book. Boy was I wrong. Luc is the shit!

Luc and Reese’s week was great, and it was wonderful to see Luc treating it as more than sex, nor was Reese’s denial unexpected. But I thought the best part was after their week. The way Luc left, leaving no other option than to pursue his dream was absolutely horrible and wonderful at the same time. The scene… OMG. I don’t blame Reese for wanting to kill Luc.

Reese going through the next few months, breaking apart and then picking up the pieces to start anew was probably the best part in any of these books so far. The story got some depth with it, it wasn't just sex and lurrrrve seen through rose tinted glasses. And when he got the package back up, Luc seized his moment and came to claim what was rightfully his. ( )

3 to 3.5 stars

Instinctively, his arms wrapped around Luc's slim waist and clung for a brief moment as starbursts crackled around his heart.


Hmm, I don't know. I know this is well liked. I liked it. But I had some problems with it. Still, I really enjoyed the tummy twinges this one gave me.

My problems with the book had to do with a lack of relationship between the two MC's. Luc and Reese have a history, but we don't really get to see their relationship from that time and it didn't feel like there was a lot of interaction between them at the time. The other thing that didn't work for me here was what felt like a very abrupt ending. I really have no idea if this left them off in a relationship or not.

In fact, I found the ending so frustrating that I thought I must have missed something. I immediately started book 3 and nope, it just barely explains how Luc and Reese's relationship has moved forward, but still leaves me unsure. Granted, I'm only a couple chapters into book 3, so....

Now, all that being said, there's just something about these rockers, this writing and these story's that have me engrossed. I'm finding that I'm just whizzing through 'em now. I guess I'll just have to wait and see if it all wraps up with a little more satisfaction and completion.

Okay, back to book 3 and Brent and Hell - Oh yeah!

3.5 stars.This second book is about Luc Sloane (bass player for Heaven Sent) and Reese Schuyler. Reese and his twin sister Reegan are part of the original Heaven Sent fanbase and were friends with the band when they first started. After Reese comes on to Luc in a moment of "weakness" Luc pushes him away in disgust (he's not gay). The story picks up some 6 years later (after Luc has discovered that men are fun too) and Reese has "de-gayed" his life. He's teaching in a very respectable, conservative (stuck-up) school and leads a very straight life (in all senses of the word). Luc wants a chance to finish what Reese started 6 years earlier. This book is another enjoyable episode of the series but I didn't like Luc's methods of forcing change on Reese - the whole "I know what's best for you" and "you'll thank me for this later" (even if it happens, by serendipity to turn out to be true) generally doesn't work very well for me. That aside, the rest was very good. ( )
