Gambling Men by Amy Lane
Sep. 11th, 2012 07:24 pm
Book Blurb: Quent Jackson has followed Jason Spade's every move in business and in poker since their first day as college freshmen. Eight years later, when Jace finally decides Quent is the one man he can't live without, he sees no reason for that to change.
But as much as Jace believes that poker is life, no one gave Quent the same playbook. After their first passionate night, the real game of love and trust begins, and Jace has been playing alone too long to make teaching the rules easy. Jace only speaks two languages: one of them is sex, and the other one is poker. Between the two, he needs to find a way to convince himself to take a chance on love—and Quent to take a chance on him. It's a lucky thing they’re good at reading the odds, because they’re playing for keeps, and this is one high-stakes relationship that's definitely worth the gamble.
Review: Gambling Men was a very nice read - especially seeing how things played out (pun intended) between the two men. Even though this is a friends to lover story, it stands out because it isn't a necessarily foregone conclusion on how things will work out. All it can take is a hand either way.
Great read and I look forward to reading more of Amy Lane's works.
