I suspect that a lot of people not in the movie/tv, etc. industry tend to think of stars as larger than life and that they lead a charmed life. The portrait that J.R. Gray paints in Unwritten shows something totally different. Tobias did want to be an actor but he really didn’t consider how things would change if he became a big star. While the money is great, the life he has to live has been profoundly changed. He can’t safely go out in public – therefor no dating or enjoying time off with his friends.

Mel is a character we met in the first two books but Unwritten does very well as a standalone story. He’s the new director for the franchise film that Tobias is starring in. When they first meet the sparks fly even though there is a significant age difference between them.

The main theme of the story is how Tobias and Mel navigate the feelings they have without jeopardizing either of their careers. Relationships between the director and cast members are forbidden so they must keep their feelings in check until filming is over – which is several months away.

Besides the love story between Tobias and Mel, one of my favorite things was Tobias’s dog, Alfred. He was an integral character in his own right and I loved the personality that J.R. Gray gave him. If you’ve never been a pet person it’s probably hard to understand how much personality they can have and how significant they can be in your life.

I don’t know if this is the last book for this series or not but I really want Tobias’s bodyguard, Finley, to get a story. He put up with a lot from Tobias in Unwritten and he deserves to get his own HEA. 😊

I was falling and we were in the dirt half on top of one another.

“What the fuck?” I said for the both of us. I tried to roll off and realized our feet were tangled. I sat up and glared at Alfred who looked pretty proud of himself. “Yooooou mother fucker.”

“What?” Mel asked as he tried to get the leash off our feet.

“Not you. The dog.” I was staring Alfred down.

“He didn’t mean to, I’m sure.”

Was it time for me to let my dog talking side slip and let my irrational habit of talking to my dog spill all over him? “No, he fully meant to.”

Mel looked at me a half-smile on his lips. “Okay.”

“He’s devious,” I said not sure where to put my hands. “Maybe if you move sideways a little?”

Mel tried to slide off of me but we just ended up more tangled and laughing. “Okay, he got us good. Maybe he is devious.”

“I think the only way we are going to get out of this is if we unleash him and maybe try using the end to unwind?”

“Can you reach him?” Mel asked putting a hand under his head pulling a leg a little making his knee brush over my still hard cock.

“Oh.” My eyes went wide.

He tilted his head, brows rising. “Sorry… only not really.”

I blew out a breath and tried to reach Alfred but every inch I moved caused Mel’s thigh to rub over my cock. And to top it off every time I got close to a finger in Alfred’s collar he moved backward, keeping himself just out of reach.

“You bastard.”

Gray is a cynical Chicago native, who drinks coffee all day, barely sleeps, and is a little too fashion obsessed. He writes realistic and damaged characters because everyone deserves a happily ever after.
