[Siren Everlasting Classic ManLove: Erotic Alternative Romance, M/M, sex toys, HEA] Troy Summers is a cop. He's recently been partnered with fellow police officer, Jamie Everson, and they get along great. He likes Jamie's brother, Nicky, even more. When Nicky gets beaten up by his ex-boyfriend and comes to him for help, Troy can't say no, not when it brings Nicky right into his arms. Even still, Troy wants to take things slow with Nicky. He knows they have a connection but he wants to build a relationship with him, even if it means hiding it from Nicky's brother and the rest of the world. But when Troy gets shot during a drug bust, all bets are off. Their secret relationship comes out. It not only lets everyone know that they've been living together, but brings Bruce back into the picture. Jamie and Troy have to work together to save not only Nicky but themselves, but can they save Nicky in time or will Troy lose the most intriguing man he's ever met? Note: This book was previously published with another publisher and has been extensively revised and expanded. ** A Siren Erotic Romance… (más)

If you want a story about men “destined to be together”, this is a good one for you. Like quite a few of Stormy Glenn's characters, Nicky (who likes making a home and is good at photography) and Troy (a dedicated cop) just know they belong together. They are presented with their share of obstacles, however, before they can sit back and start the life they have both dreamed about.

Nicky is lonely, and he makes the mistake of moving in with the wrong guy just because he wants someone so badly he can taste it. The moment Bruce lifts a hand against him, though, he is out of there. Unfortunately, Bruce is not one to give up easily and Nicky ends up in danger and on the run for quite a while. Meeting Troy makes him happy and he realizes quickly they belong together, especially since Troy accepts Nicky the way he is. I liked that Nicky wasn't the weak or even submissive character in the relationship. He doesn’t accept being called a girl just because he likes making a home, loves embroidery, and is an excellent cook.

Troy may be a tough cop, but he is as lonely as Nicky. Once they meet, Troy quickly becomes very protective, but doesn’t cross the line into telling Nicky what to do. Well, he does try once, for Nicky’s protection, but is quickly “told off” and learns his lesson. The way Troy accepts Nicky and stands by him is wonderfully heartwarming.

Then there's Nicky's abusive ex-lover, Bruce, who beats him up whenever he can find him—and the bastard is determined to find Nicky as often as possible and get him to come back to him. There's also the complication of Nicky's older brother Jamie who doesn't listen to him...and also happens to be Troy's partner at work.

If you like stories about physically weaker men who are mentally just as strong and determined as their more macho counterparts, if you like reading about “destined” couples, and if you’re looking for a read that is sweet and hot at the same time, then you will probably like this novella.

Picture Me Perfect is the prequel of Sammy Dane but it was released after so if you, like me, read Sammy’s story before, now you already know what is the conclusion of Troy and Nicky’s one, but in any case, this is a pure romance, and like that, it delivers what you are expecting.

There is a trend in Stormy Glenn’s stories, macho men lookalike but with a big tender heart who fall in love for little elflike men, who despite the diminishing look, are able to wrap the bigger men around their pinkies. In this story Nicky is the younger brother of Jamie, whose partner as policer officer is Trey; he is a small man, with a gentle soul; I think he had also some hidden conflict with the relationship with his father, maybe not in the open, but he was evidently nearer to their mother. The oddity is that, both Jamie than Nicky are gay, and they are brother, but they are at the opposite of the spectrum, Jamie so self-assured, always thinking to have the right answer, even a bit conservative in his idea of how a man has to be. Nicky doesn’t correspond to that idea, and so for Jamie, Nicky is not much of a man, and for that reason he needs to be protected. But where Jamie’s protection borders on captivity, the relationship Nicky finds with Troy is of cherish and love. Troy protects Nicky, but he let him free to be who he wants to be; Troy doesn’t try to change Nicky to make him more similar to his idea of perfect partner: when he first sees Nicky, he clearly thinks that Nicky is not his usual type, but never once, after that, he tries to conforms Nicky to that type.

Picture Me Perfect has an high dose of sugar, it’s all about cuddling on a couch and smooching in front of television. Nicky sometime is almost childish (again something it made me think that his relationship with his own parents wasn’t so smooth and ordinary), he bounces, whimpers and blushes… someone different from Troy would have probably a lot of problem to deal with him, but Troy is like a mattress, he absorbs the hits, and returns only tenderness.
