**Grammar**
HOLY SHI*! i read this book in like 1 hour and half if not less. Was really good and romantic. Sure as hell i will read more books about this author, hoping they will be longer so i can give 5 stars.
The story starts with Max,a billionaire, entering with his friend and also collegue,a swinger club, where the woman was invited. There Max feels someone staring at him, and when he turns he sees the hottest men he has evern seen. The thing is that till that moment, he had always been only in relationships with women,and thought of himself as sraight. This for him is all new. The younger man (26), his name is Chris, gives him a business card with a room number on it, then leaves the room and turns just one last time smirking and winking at Max before he turns the coner and gets out of sight.
Max doesnt know what to do, but he is sure of one thing, he wants to follow that man, he needs too. That room will change both their life forever.
At the age of 37, the hadsome Max is still a virgin for what concers a gay relationship, he tells Chris that,and the other man doesnt pressure him, but tells him that they will do what he wants to. They explore each other bodies, with their hands and mouths.They make love, and Max is the one topping. He has never felt something like this, he feels complete like never before.For Chris the firefighter,already experienced and not a virgin, Max is a complete and beautiful surprise. When the time to leave the room comes, both of them think of asking to the other his number. In the end the one that does it for first is Max.
One month passes before Max calls Chris again, and in all the weeks before that call, there was only one thing he could think about, and that was Chris and their night together. Max calls Chris and they arrange another meeting. In the few days they can be together,Max starts to understand that he is becoming attached to Chris and wants to be with him all the time, and this is not because he is the only men he has been with, but bcs he is the best person he has been with. Max knows that Chris is starting to feel the same too, but his life is different from his and being so openly happy and in a gay relationship, couldnt be as easy for the firefigher as for Max. When Max asks Chris if he has any vacation time, he sees how Chris carefully studies him and asks why, and when Max tells him he wants to take him to France, he feels that Chris doesnt know what to answer. In the end Chris will say yes.
In France, Max for the first time will give all of himself to Chris. That is his decision, there is no pressure, Chris never asked for this, also if he always wished he could be this man first. Chris knows that this is an important moment, that he will be forever Max's first, and he will make sure that whatever happens, the man will never forget him. (i loved the fact that they change roles sometimes).
Later when they are hugging and relaxing, Max will asks Chris how it had been for him, his first time, if it had been like now for him, but Chris will answer him that he had hated it, bcs he had rushed it and hadnt been good.
All is going well, till on the last day, they go to one of Max's friend party. There Chris, always confident, feels unconfortable. He is now sure that their worlds are too different. Chris knows he needs to break-up with Max.
Nothing can stop Chris, from his stupid idea, not even Max telling him that he is falling in love with him.Chris cant breath, cant speak, he knows this is the stupidest thing he has ever done, but he cant risk all, not even for love. He tells Max they have to stop this, that their life can never be together, he can see tears in Max's eyes, he kisses him for the last time and than leaves. Max doesnt want to run to him, he will not beg him to stay and make of himself a greater fool that he already did, not even if his heart is breaking.
One month passes, and both men are miserable, they cant stop thinking about each other.
Chris'accident will bring them together.
While on the work Chris gets hurt badly and his sister, a good woman i liked a lot, the only one who knew about him and Max, will call the older man and tell him what happened. We will understand that both men are still in love.
Max while in Chris' hospital room, will kiss the younger man on the lips and caress his cheek and Chris' sister will understand that the man really loves his brother.
Chris while thinking he was dying had called for Max's name, telling him he was sorry, and one of the firefigher had heard it. Jack, his name, will ask Max if he is the one Chris was calling for, and will tell him he doesnt care if Chris is gay, the important is that they are in love. Max will tell him that he, yes, loves Chris very much.
When Chris, some days after, wakes up from the coma, they will have some time to talk, and understand they cant live without the other, and finally declare their mutual love. Max that same day will go to a tattoo shop and make the artist drawn a design with the patron of firefighters and with Chris name in its middle near his heart. When Chris sees the tattoo he is speechless and extremely happy.
Chris will need a lot of time to heal his broken arm, and the burns on his leg, but he will be fine and will heal completely.
Chris co-workers, will visit him during the weeks and is a day like any other, when Chris will make them understand that Max is his boyfriend. Some make strange faces, others are happy for him, but Chris doesnt wanna hide anymore, he will never leave Max again he is sure of this.
(Chris all the time they had been apart after he had dumped Max, had had only one thought,that now any other man could have been with Max and that had killed him, had made him sick, his huge jealousy had surprised him.Luckly Max had never wanted someone else, so his fears had never been true.)
He is so sure of the fact that he will never leave Max again, that some days later he proposes to him and Max accepts.
The epilogue was sweet.
We see them 8 years later, married and with kids, 2 biological (one born from Max's sperm the other from Chris'), that they call the "twins", a boy and a girl they had with 2 surrogate mothers and that were born almost the same day, and 2 more kids they adopted.
Is winter and they are making a snowman and they are happy and Chris' sister now works for Max.
Good end and story, is just a bit too short and i would have liked to read longer chapters. 4.5 stars.
