Or at least, no longer most wanted by mercs and bounty hunters and lunatics.

# 82: Tripwire by Sean Michaels:

Clean and horny, he swam slowly around Bones' rock, trying to think up a line that wouldn't make him sound like a total horn dog.

Synopsis: Hard-bitten mercenary falls for the camp doctor, hard, then must protect him when a bounty's put on his head.

Pooooooooorn. Poooooooooooooooooooooooorn. Hardcore man-on-man loving. Nearly 200 pages of it, with a wild and rampant disregard for physics, pronouns and lube. There's a reason I wrote a synopsis where you can't really tell who's being hunted. It was that hard to tell in the book.

For all of that, there's definitely a couple of cute moments, and a couple of hot moments, but I am not kidding when I say that I could not tell who was behind the bounty-hunting plot, and I'm fairly sure there was a scene at the end where everyone was in the same room, and the villain had just been unmasked. I had a hard time keeping track of who was the mercenary and who the doctor, and did you know all mercenaries bang all other mercenaries? I did not know until now.

Overall I just kept waiting for something to fall off from overuse.

And I'm not even going to get into the scene where seriously? They both should have drowned. Hydrology and physics are over in the corner doing shots.

But it was very, very interesting to see how that particular story was done. That's all I'm gonna say.

books, m/m romance, wtfbooks
