An interesting short-ish story in this series. While it might not seem like insta-love, it did come across as such to me, but it was still okay. Still a fun, easy read and I'm happy to keep going with the series. ( )

I liked the characters but had to drop a star because things just progressed way too fast. Not the fact of Max and Alec's relationship - they had been aware of each other for years - but the lightning-fast dive into D/s. I'm not against reading D/s and I have been known to enjoy reading some Daddy-kink but finding out about and agreeing to such a lifestyle while in bed the first time mere days after meeting outside the classroom for the first time was just too much. For such an important decision I would expect a more serious and detailed negotiation. ( )

I said this in my last review: Carol Lynne goes better every book I read. The first enstalment on the Campus Cravings series was enjoyable but not impressive. A good story, fast and simple, no much drama.

In this second enstalment, Max, Luc's son (Luc and Justin were the main characters of the first enstalment), is still grieving for the loss of Nick, his first and only lover till now. Nick is dead in a car accident and Max was behind the wheel. Doesn't matter that was not his fault. And doesn't matter that his relationship with Nick was not the same after two years. When he lose his lover, Max lose also the wish of life.

But something is changins in his life, he is dreaming of a commanding man, a man who has a clear face: his Greek history professor, Alec. And Alec is observing Max and he is only waiting for Max to stop mourning his lost lover. But Alec his not a common man, he likes to be a real Dom in his private life, he likes to be calling Babas (father) and to call his lover little man. He likes to take care and protect his man, he also also tattoo 'protector' above his... penis! And he is jelaous like hell. But really his dominant behaviour only result in being a lot possessive and commanding during love and to take decision on Max's life, and Max discovers he like to be commanded by Alec. So everything all right, apart Justin, Max's adoptive father, and the slight age's difference betwen Max and Alec... Alec has more or less the same age of Max's father, Luc.

In this novel I read a little more character's investigation than the other novel I have read and also the story seems to me better planned and developed. And it gives also a good anticipation for the next coming soon enstalment.
