I actually finished this a while ago, but forgot to do the review *facepalm* ... I'm actually almost done with the fifth book I bought, so that review will come soon LOL
An Unlocked Heart
Since the death of his submissive lover two years ago, Leo hasn’t been living—merely existing. He focuses on making Collars & Cuffs, a BDSM club in Manchester’s gay village, successful. That changes the night he and his business partner have their weekly meeting at Severinos. Leo can’t keep his eyes off the new server. The shy man seems determined to avoid Leo’s gaze, but that’s like a red rag to a bull. Leo loves a challenge.
Alex Daniels works at Severinos to scrape together the money to move out on his own. He struggles with coming out, but he’s drawn to Leo, the gorgeous guy with the icy-blue eyes who’s been eating in his area nearly every night.
Leo won’t let Alex’s hesitance get in the way. He even keeps him away from the club so as not to scare him. And as for telling Alex that Leo is a Dom? Not a good idea. One date becomes two, but date two leads to Leo’s bedroom… and Alex discovers things about himself he never realized—and never wanted anyone to see.
My Thoughts
I really enjoyed this one ... There seemed to be a lot of ... shit thrown in their paths and their reactions to everything seemed fairly genuine and they were able to move past it easily. Time passed a bit better in this one, even though again, things went quickly. I understand that writers of this type of book have to get things done in a short time, and this time it worked okay for me. The sex was incredibly hot and I found myself just a little embarrassed as I read it at work LOL - highly recommended. Just as a forewarning, it is a BDSM book, so if that's not your thing ...
