<div>Hawk has wanted Jack for 7 years but has been scared to say anything. Hawk is tired of having his V card so he asks Jack if he'll do the honor of deflowering him. Jack freaks out and has all sorts of dumb reasons why they can't be together. How do you make the love of your life see that you belong together? I love that Jack calls Hawk "Bird". Their first meeting was funny. I like how Jack made it clear that he's not babying Hawk but he just likes to take care of him. It's cute how Hawk tells Jack everything. Even about the books he's reading that Jack knows nothing about but wants to hear anyways. I hate Jack's excuses as to why he can't be with Hawk. There's nothing wrong with wanting who you want. The fact that Jack keeps messing up orders and sets a rag on fire because he can't get Hawk off his mind is not what I expected. The scene Hawk made at the diner was definitely a little too much. The ending was perfect.&nbsp; I really enjoyed this. Lots of laughing and yelling at the book. I need to read more from May Archer. This was such a good read.</div>
