I want to give this more stars but I HATE noncon-kink and I loathe the "boy blackmails boy into sex, only to later confess there was no blackmail, whereby the blackmail-ee sees NOTHING WRONG with being lied to and used for sex for because he LIKED getting laid" trope.
*smites*
Integrity is sexy. Give me a m/m romance with an integrity-kink, and I'll be a stunned and happy reader.
Anyway, set all THAT aside, and it's a sort of sweet little WW1 aviator novella. The setting is vivid enough and nicely drawn, the action sequences were good, and the characters held my interest. However, the sex was surprisingly bland and there wasn't near enough believable yearning.
I'd like to see the same story done without the noncon and lies, actually, with the plot pushed by charm and persuasion instead of fake blackmail, because Bat may have been a blushing violet, but he seemed a *persuadable* blushing violet. The noncon was gratuitous and unnecessary.
