I love cheap and tasty wine, reading stories about men falling in love and making good food…Here is where I mix all three.

I liked this book, I am normally reticent of m-m-m stories because they tend to be melodramatic and I just get frustrated...This book was on the dramatic side for sure, but it was well written and engaging.

I found I connected with the characters straightaway (which in of itself was a miraculous thing for me this week...I digress)

Cameron and Mark have been together for a couple of years and things are in a bit of a slump, and so they go on holiday to Anguilla for some time to reconnect on the way there they decide that they want to find another partner and have a one might stand with him while they are on hols...At the resort they spot Philip, and know he's the guy they. Philip is dealing with his own life his family obligations...

The sex with Philip brings out old demons for Cameron and poor sad Mark just feels left out and very sad...Philip struggles with what he wants and what he feels he owes his family.

Like I said, the characters were engaging, the story interesting, the writing good, the sex was pretty hot ( which NEVER hurts in my book) and overall I liked it a lot.

Can't give it more stars because I am just fatigued with plots that perpetuate this state of anxiety in the characters just out of sheer lack of communication...WHY CAN'T THESE MEN HAVE A NORMAL CONVERSATION?!

This book would have been loads better for me, if at some points they characters could have just said that they felt and could've of progressed in what they were looking for in each other.
