-- You can take a killer's memory, but not his instinct -- All Seth wants is to live free with the man he loves. But escaping death at the hands of the mafia is just the beginning of an uphill struggle. When Domenico wakes up from his impromptu surgery and doesn't even remember Seth's name, Seth's world falls apart. Suddenly it's him who has to plan an escape from New York City and navigate their way to Mexico. All that without even knowing if the man of his life will ever love him again. Domenico doesn't know who to trust and what to believe. The man who introduces himself as his brother seems to hide dark secrets behind a cheerful smile. With the mafia breathing down their necks, there is no time to piece together the puzzle of Domenico's life, and each time he thinks he's solved it, a new part appears to be missing. Dom needs to find out who he really is, what he's capable of... and what is the real story hidden behind Seth's intense eyes. POSSIBLE SPOILERS: Themes: mafia, homophobia, assassin, organized crime, amnesia, road trip, chase Length: ~88,000 words WARNING: Sizzling hot scenes. If you are easily offended, this book is not for you. 'Guns n' Boys' is a gritty story with morally ambiguous protagonists. Behind the morbid facade, there is a splash of inappropriate dark humor, and a love story that will crawl under your skin. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

Seth is finally a little less naïve than he was in the beginning of book one, and having the responsibility for both of their safety while they make their way to Mexico teaches him a lot more. They deal with Domenico’s recovery while trying to stay alive despite multiple attempts to kill them. The one thing Seth no longer questions is that he loves Domenico – and in that sense it is particularly tragic that Domenico has forgotten everything. But Seth is a survivor and he soldiers on as best he can. He still doesn’t really get the kind of danger they are in and some of his mistakes made me roll my eyes, but on the whole, he does manage not to get tem killed.
Domenico, who has always been in control and has survived due to his ability to read and manipulate people, suddenly finds himself operating in the dark. He tries to remember, but it is hard work and new information keeps popping up. On a fundamental level he is still Domenico though, a badass to the core, so in quite a few instances it is his instinct that saves the day. But when it finally all comes together, including a startling revelation from Domenico’s mother, it is almost too late and the suffering he has to go through may be less physical than what Seth has o deal wit, but no less agonizing.
This is yet another novel firmly rooted in the depths of the moral gray zone. Do not read this if you are squeamish in any way, and while the brutality is more psychological than real in most of the book, there is enough blood, gore, and torture to make me want to stop reading. Except I can’t. The warning in the blurb about this story “getting under your skin” definitely holds true for me. I just have to know want’s next for these guys.
So if you want to know how Seth and Domenico deal with being on the run, if you don’t mind things getting rough from time to time, and if you think you can deal with violence, brutality, and the torture of anyone who does not comply with Seth’s father’s wishes, then you will probably like this second book in the series. It is not a fluffy romance, but as dark as this thriller is, the love between Seth and Domenico is fascinating and multi-layered, and continues to fascinate me.
