Review of 'Julius Caesar' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Storyline and Characters - 5 stars
Writing and delivery - 3 stars

I love these characters and the plot so much!! The sweetness is on overload, and I wouldn't change it. No angst, just two men falling in love with a little light control and a whole lot of lingerie in the mix. sighs happily
On the downside, the writing was somewhat awkward and stilted in places, but really my biggest issue was all the telling and not showing. I want to experience the moment, not be told what's happening.
All in all though, I'm happy leaving the four star rating and will definitely be reading the rest of this series.
