Between four and five stars. I really enjoyed this and I'm excited to read more books of this kind. The cover caught my eye before I knew what it was about, and I wonder if the photo inspired the author. It's so striking.

There's a line late in the book that describes this image really well:

Like a dark, seductive fairy that would disappear if he got too close, or maybe lock him away and keep him forever if he dared to touch.

That isn't the plot of the book, but it is about Marco taking charge of Greg with love and patience.

I would've preferred it if the characters had talked about a few of the things that happened before they took place, especially

the first time Marco gets fully naked with Greg.

. But that's my only real complaint, and I look forward to reading more of this series soon.
