There aren’t many M/M Romance authors out there that write a less than perfect MC in their stories, but here N.R. Walker knocked it out of the park. She wrote Henry exactly as a big person thinks and feels for themselves, she wrote their hangups, insecurities, self image issues to a T and she wrote how you need to love yourself and better it how you want and not how society wants. Henry by the end of the book wasn’t a chiseled 36yo. He was a healthy man that still loved and ate cheesecake that had beside him Reed, a man that loved Henry for himself and because he was making Reed laugh and they talked and not because he was a perfect specimen of male beauty. The best part if the story was when Reed showed Henry how Henry judged him because of his perfect body. Prejudice goes both ways. Anyways where can I get my own Reed? Joel’s performance, because it isn’t just a narration, was filled with emotions, chemistry, laughter and a variety of voices.
