DIVING IN DEEP by K. A. Mitchell, May 31 2008
By JenB99 - Published on Amazon.com
Noah has had a crush on his older brother's best friend since his teenage years. They had one brief encounter when Noah was a teen, and one steamy night at a wedding six years ago. When Noah finds out Cameron will be his instructor in a training seminar for work, he decides to make Cameron notice him. When Cameron sees the gorgeous man at the front of the classroom, he can hardly believe the man is Noah, his best friend's kid brother. Sparks fly, and the men can't resist their attraction for one another. Is their passionate encounter just the result of Noah's teenage crush and Cameron's loneliness, or will their affair develop into something more?
This book is absolutely incredible! First of all, this is indescribably sexy. "Hot" doesn't even begin to describe the love scenes in DIVING IN DEEP. This author is an absolute master of sexual chemistry. I'm surprised the electricity these boys generated didn't fry my hard drive! The heat level in this book is off the charts. Jeez, even the phone sex in this book is incredible.
Cameron is a brooding tough guy with a dominant alpha personality. He always gets what he wants. Noah is an alpha male as well and was always the dominant partner in his previous relationships, but something about Cameron brings out his needy, submissive side. I don't know about you, but I get hot thinking about an alpha bottom. Noah is SO sexy. You just have no idea. Cameron occasionally got on my nerves with his caveman alpha mindset and commitment phobia, but his sexual compatibility with Noah made up for it. Noah always seemed to need exactly what Cameron was willing to give him.
There are no scary bad guys in this book, no phony drama, and there are very few supporting characters. This is Cameron and Noah's story, and there's very little interference from outside forces. Cameron is afraid of long-term relationships and Noah spends a lot of time trying to figure out how to make Cameron see him as a man and not the kid with a crush, but somehow the author addresses these issues without creating a stupid Big Misunderstanding like you see so often in M/F romance. The men have issues, and they work on them like men--not like teenaged girls.
The book description on the publisher's site warns that there is "mild dominant/submissive behavior". The key word is "mild"...as in basically nonexistent. It's so mild that I think the warning was completely unnecessary, and even slightly misleading to those who actually look for hardcore BDSM themes.
This is a great e-book by a great author. I highly recommend it.

Mostly sex, Oct 5 2009

This review is from: Diving in Deep (Paperback)
This book is 98% sex scenes and 2% story line. There's nothing "wrong" with the sex scenes. But if you're looking for a novel, this is just not it.

Skin Deep, Sep 19 2009

This review is from: Diving in Deep (Paperback)
While the author shows promise, this book does not do her skill justice. The book is basically a bunch of porn scenes held together by a rather tenuous story line peopled with one-dimensional characters.
