My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Micah hires Constantine — his family’s rival and a cocky trouble‑maker — thinking it’s a good deed, not a temptation. But having him in his shop and in his space quickly turns into something he can’t ignore. Constantine, trying to rebuild his life after years of mistakes, takes the job even though Micah is the last man he should want. He tells himself Micah is his boss, not his boyfriend… but the pull between them keeps getting stronger. Two supposed enemies, one undeniable attraction, and no real chance of resisting it.
What really carried this story was the undeniable connection between Micah and Constantine — a bond strong enough to push through their messy history and the communication issues that kept tripping them up, both with each other and with their families. Their feelings were always clear, even when their words weren’t. I did struggle with how difficult it was for Constantine to talk to his mother about anything personal. Given how close he and Micah were becoming, that level of secrecy made things feel a bit one‑sided at times. I loved that everything ultimately worked out, though I was left wondering how things ended for certain people and businesses caught in the crossfire. Still, the story delivered plenty of emotion and feeling, with both men learning to open up despite their pasts. A heartfelt, complicated romance built on chemistry, conflict, and the slow work of learning to communicate. This was an MM story with mature content.
