I liked the idea of this book...but not the result. It's written in third person and if it's not done damn near perfectly *cough* The Charm Offensive/Queer Principles/RW&RB *cough* then it can be hard to connect with the characters. And let me tell you...I didn't connect.
Also the way things were said in this book confused me a little bit and I just found it hard to follow. I really wanted to like this one but it just didn't hold my attention 😕.

Griff Muir is somewhat perturbed when his best friend decides to do porn to supplement his income as it stirs up feelings he would rather not acknowledge.

It is a tribute to Damon Suede's story-telling powers that I kept reading this all the way through as I had taken a decided dislike to both the main characters by the end of chapter 1 so I will give it a reluctant so-so, though it came close to a bail several times.

I think for most people the better sex they‘ve had is with someone they‘ve loved. In Hot Head we follow Griff and the object of his obsession, affection, desire, fellow firefighter, straight guy, Dante. Dante has some financial struggles and comes up with a scheme to do some online modeling. He can get more $ if he can get a friend to appear with him. Enter Griff. There was so much inner dialogue and struggle it had me choking up a little. And👇🏼

Reggie when we got to the sex, it was the best because the author had made you fall in love with them. Good stuff, more depth than I thought there‘d be. 6y

This was wasn't for me. I tried and I liked Griffin, and Dante sometimes is funny and likeble too, but... I wasn't in to it, sadly. Maybe I would try in another moment or maybe not...

Well that was... super intense. Not in a bad way, just some *seriously* steamy bits happening here. I'm blushing even as I post this 😳. Definitely won't be everyone's cup of tea, but if you read M/M romance I've been told that Damon Suede is a must. This was my first of his but it won't be my last!

This is on lots of romance to read lists. I didn‘t hate it but it didn‘t live up to the hype for me. #romantsy 🚒🚒🚒

Loved this so much. I can definitely see why it's on several romance lists and I'm thrilled I finally read it! It's sweet, the characters ate well-developed, it's fucking HOT (and there's hot fucking), it's emotional, and it feels believable, despite its high stakes and genre elements.

I can't believe this is the first time I'm reading Damon Suede considering I've read and loved A LOT of gay m/m romances! I'm excited to finally be reading his work considering his popularity and importance to the genre. I really loved his conversation with Faith Salie on Audible's Authorized series, too, which motivated me to go grab one of his books asap.

Dirty. Raw. Breathtaking. Beautiful.
No other words are needed.

LauraBrook Was this a recommendation from Sarah MacLean? It looks close to a cover she rec'd, but I don't remember. 7y
hongim @laurabrook No. I actually have met him. This is autographed. MM. The love story is so good. Although, she may have recommended it too. (edited) 7y

Holy lord this book is intense. The realism of being a gay couple and the romance lends depth to the story. The bedroom activities are gritty and intense.

I will be completely frank: I only read this for the sexy bits. I am certain there is a plot somewhere, about two closeted New York firefighters, but I skimmed it all to get to the good parts. Which were very good. It hit the spot.

CouronneDhiver Haha! Three cheers for honesty 😂 8y

You have an epiphany: You are in 💙 with your best friend. He is all you have. If you lose him you lose the family that embraced you, raised you & saved you. If you lose him you are rudderless & alone. He asks you for help & you do everything to help him afraid your 💙 will disgust him. Then you are afraid that the 🌎 will harm him. How do you deal with an attraction and 💙 that challenges everything you believe about yourself? Surprising #keeper

MommaBeja @DamonSuede great seeing you tonight. Cannot wait to read your new book. 7y

Damon is one of my besties and tonight he's interviewing me at Word in Brooklyn (7pm). One thing I want to talk to him about: differences between alphas in m/m romance versus f/m, especially historical. Have you read m/m? No better place to start than this book, imo! #romantsy. #nycevent. #bookevent

candyflossramparts I typically don't read contemporary romance, but I do read m/m historical. I would be curious what his opinion is on women writing m/m romance. 8y
MommaBeja @EloisaJames great talk @Word with Damon. Always fun to hear your take on life and #romance. #keeper #mustread 8y
EloisaJames @candyflossramparts he's totally positive--two of his best (female) friends write gay romance. 8y
EloisaJames @MommaBeja thank you so much for coming!!! You're the best. Big hug 8y
MommaBeja @EloisaJames you are welcome. There should always be a friendly face in the crowd. Glad to come and support the cause. 😎 8y
