Dear Author, My name is ____ and I’m a singer. I’m well known and well respected in the biz, but I’m a very private man, which means that I tend to keep my status as a gay man on the low. I’m usually pretty good at keeping my life under wraps, especially since the entertainment company I have a contract with keeps me on a tight leash. I don’t want the world to know that I’m gay because that would cause a lot of problems in my life, especially if people discover something that I’m just starting to find out about myself: I’m a submissive. I’ve never done anything about it, but I want to. I’ve read so much about it and watched so much kinky porn but I’ve never met someone that I’d trust enough to go that far with. I’ve got a meeting coming up with my record label… They want me to meet up with someone to talk about maybe doing a duet but I’m dreading it. What if our styles aren’t cohesive? I guess I’ll find out tomorrow.
Photo Description: Two attractive young men of Korean descent are facing each other, surrounded by blue pulsing lights. The dark haired man on the left is slim, but muscular and sporting several unique tattoos on his naked torso, above his skin-tight white jeans. He is gripping the reddish-brown hair of the second man while singing to him. That man is wearing a dark blue suit accented by silver sequins on his lapels and the belt over his jacket.

It sounded like a story right up my alley. I was looking forward to reading it, but I caught myself not get caught up in the romance or any of it really. The only thing I really wanted to find out was if Michael was going to make another appearance.
I found myself leaving and coming back several times, other things catching my interest: funny video clips, other books, etc. There was some mild confusion while reading it, but nothing that took away from the plot/storyline. Perhaps if there was some more suspense. I do like how Yun fought against his attraction towards Kwan at first, it took him a while to finally accept defeat and see where their relationship would lead(to what and where). I liked Yun as a character. He is sweet and loveable. He knows what he needs, he just isn’t sure how to go about it without changing himself.
Kwan is another K-pop singer who is established himself in the USA already and is willing, wanting to help out Yun, both professionally and personally. I felt the word usage of ‘Dom’ and “Sub/Submissive’ was repetitive. I think the author was trying to ‘bang it into our heads’ this was suppose to be a newly established D/S relationship. I don’t need to be reminded every other paragraph.
I am happy with the ending. Kwan and Yun had a little bit of ‘incident’, but it over pretty quickly. Would like to know what happens next... because of Michael...
