Cat gives this one 5 Meows with a 1 Purr heat index...
Warning; There is mention of pedophilia, rape, child abuse, violence,(these are off the page) and self-cutting. None of these scenes are gratuitous. They also fit into the story and show us Carey's past and what he went through that makes him how he is today.
Living on air is a work of art in itself. Ms, Mac Nicols created a beautiful story full of intriguing and quirky characters. The story is beautifully written and poignant. It is a real page-turner. There is a lot of angst and I wanted so bad to grab care and hold him. I know all about cutting having ad a family member with that problems.
This book reminded me of some old movies my hubby and I used to watch like Big Top and The Greatest Show on Earth.
If you like lots of angst, circus stories, unique characters, broken men, friends to lovers and an allover intriguing read this is for you. bring along the tissue.
Sue writes steamy, sexy and fun contemporary gay romance stories, some suspenseful, some gritty and dark, and others just plain ahhhh....
Lover of angst and conflict, she enjoys putting her characters through the emotional wringer and bringing them out the other side with an HEA or at the very least, a HFN.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the great review, Cat. Sounds like a good story. Just the cover sold me, but I also don't mind a little darker. - Purple Reader,
