BLURB:

His mission was seduction—not falling in love.

When young Sebastian Brambani meets a sexy and exciting older man, he’s easily seduced. But for spy Kyle Grant, it’s all business. Sebastian is simply a pawn in Kyle’s mission to acquire a dangerous chemical weapon from Sebastian’s criminal father. Kyle’s life is his work for a shadowy international agency protecting the world from evil, and he can’t worry about what will happen to Sebastian when the job is done.

Sebastian’s unwitting role in Kyle’s plan is the last straw for his ruthless father, who has been embarrassed by his gay son for the last time. But when Kyle discovers Sebastian could be the key to finding the deadly Chimera, he rescues him from his father's hitman and fights to keep him alive. Can a hardened spy and naïve college student take down a criminal kingpin, stay one step ahead of the killers on their trail—and fight the scorching attraction between them?

I'm a sucker for romances where one of the people in the relationship is relatively older than the other one, and while this one qualifies as such because Kyle is 10 years Sebastian's senior, I actually didn't feel their age difference and it wasn't mentioned all that much either. Don't like it when they make a big deal of it, but can't say that I'm a fan if it's mentioned only in passing at the very beginning either as I can't enjoy the age difference to its full potential.

I also wasn't a big fan of the constant sex-fest. I honestly grew tired of the constant action these guys simply had to have between the sheets and I even skipped a few of them even though I really liked both guys. I liked them together and I liked them separately, but I simply felt that they had a bit too much fun in a life threatening situation and should've put more emphasis on, you know, staying alive and irrelevant stuff like that. Also, falling in love in a week is not my cup of tea.
