Not That Complicated

This is a romantic comedy. I like romantic comedy movies & plays but it turns out that they are not so much my jam in the written form. My bad for having picked this. I started at a disadvantage. Weirdly I enjoyed the first third or so the story and even smiled at certain times.

The thing is that Ray's insecurities and general personality, at least reading about them, and having only his POV wore off it's welcome. Also I couldn't grasp what Adam saw in Ray. Ray who alternated between ogling Adam as a shiny bauble (he's model beautiful of course) or screeching at him for the cheating ways of Ray's former partner. Nonetheless Ray did avail himself of the help/comfort/attention Adam offered.

I also didn't buy or need the dangling of Adam as some sort of Dom with no actual follow through. I'm no super fan of BDSM but if you're gonna go there go there. Otherwise it's unnecessary.

I'd still say that someone who enjoys a comedic non-cozy cozy would enjoy this. The writing is clean and direct and yes, funny.
