Awkwardly Romantic
Customer Rating: 4 out of 5 
This title was an interesting read. I was a little weary at first when reading it, but once I got a sense of the characters i fell in love with the book. Very well written and taboo subjects are very difficult to get a following on; however this book will definitely have a following for its pure rarity.

Truly amazing
Customer Rating: 4 out of 5 
It's beyond belief that this little self-published book has gotten such amazing rankings. It's a testament to the determination of the author and the narrow-mindedness of the publishing world. This novel is an intriguing investigation into a young man's self-discovery and obviously flat out taboo that he has an affair with his father. But, so many people have supported this story, it's astounding. I only wish 'Mr. Holloway' had the luxury of an editor. I'm sure when he rereads it, he cringes at the errors in the text. Perhaps someone will spot this little ditty and re-release it for the author, complete with a good work over to correct all the mistakes, (ie, the spelling shifts from Brett to Bret, a neighbor who is Stan, then Steve, aint instead of ain't, his Father, instead of his father...) yet, even with all these problems this book's story is still shining through. I have to ask myself why.
Guts. It took guts to publish it, self or otherwise. I was just as riveted to the action as the other reviewers. Hats off to the author for taking one heck of a chance on his 'baby'. I wish you luck in getting it reworked and perfected.

Guilty Pleasure
Customer Rating: 4 out of 5 
Wow. I was reading excerpts of innocent gay novels when I stumbled upon this work. It intrigued me, but I steered clear of it at first when I saw a review saying it had sex between a father and son :-O. However, one night I couldn't resist and I read the first thirty or so pages of it. I was instantly hooked, though the book had serious editing faults. Once I ordered it, I read it in one day. The book is currently buried beneath my bed because I am ashamed of having enjoyed it so much, but I just can't get rid of it. It was maybe a little slutty, which I do not admire, but erotica with one lover throughout would have been boring. What really surprised me was the depth of this story. I thought it would be nothing but SEX (which there IS a lot of), but it was an actual story!
Kudos, Holloway.

Confused, yet intrigued...
Customer Rating: 3 out of 5 
I almost had to stop reading this book because all the incest was seriously turning my stomach, yet I couldn't seem to put it down because I was completely and totally captivated by Mason Sutherland and wanted to find out what happened to him. I've got to say that I was pleasantly surprised by the last chapter and the epilogue, which seemed to make me turn a blind eye to all of the incestuous "love" throughout the course of the entire book. I understand the dynamics of all of it, but I just can't condone the actions, I'm sorry. But, incest aside, I really did love Mason to death because he reminded me so much of one of my best friends when we were in high school, and I truly felt for him with all of my heart and hoped everything would work out for him. This book is a very decent read, and if you can push through the incest, it's definitely worth getting to end!

shocking
Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
I love to read, it could be anything, as long as it holds my attention especially on the first couple of paragraphs.
This book was read in one night (non-stop).
It made me laugh,and yes cry. The ending was shocking and I probably will read this book again. I know it will be very hard to forget.
This book will always stay on my book shelf.
An excellant read Mr Holloway.
