Synopsis

Will Devon and Caiden discover that their new love is a wrap after the filming ends?

Weddings, champagne, and slow dancing. It’s a lethal combination and one that has led film student Devon Maxwell into one awkward predicament. Brought in at the last minute to help his friends Isamu and Brian during their Bryant Park wedding, Devon was not prepared for Caiden Dell to sweep into his life. The spark of attraction between him and the hip film executive was instantaneous. That spark led them right into Caiden’s big bed for a night of pleasure that Devon will never be able to duplicate no matter how many takes life gives him.

To make things even more complicated, Caiden offers the recently vacated job of office intern to him. He’d be a fool to turn down an offer to work at Budgie in the Dell, the hottest LGBT film production company in the Big Apple. Looks as if Devon’s hopes of working in film are about to come true. He’s ready for days filled with tiring shoots, long hours, and irate actors. He just never dreamed his nights would overflow with passion, laughter, and whispers shared with a gorgeous, older lover.

So hot, so emotional!

I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump the last several days; nothing I’ve read in the last week or so has really moved me emotionally. I love a book that can bring me to tears and V.L. Locey did that perfectly with Devon and Caiden’s story. We met both of them in Nine Small Sips but I don’t think you need to read that book to enjoy this one.

The blurb tells you what the story is about so take a look at it. I’m going to tell you that Devon and Caiden captured and held my interest right from the get-go; I read this story in one sitting. The sexy time in the book is really hot but I also genuinely felt the connection between the two MCs – even if they didn’t really admit it to each other.

Devon is hampered by the way he was brought up – real men don’t ask for help, etc. He also has emotional scars because his homophobic parents threw him out when they found out he’s gay. After spending time on the streets, staying with film producer Caiden is something he can’t afford to let himself get used to.

Caiden has a failed marriage to remind him that falling too fast and too hard isn’t a good idea. While he and Devon spend two fantastic weeks together neither is really communicating with the other and feelings are bound to get hurt.

I cried sad tears and happy tears while reading Fade In and I’m so happy that V.L. Locey’s book is one that finally made me feel something deeply.
