Absolutely loved this short story! Dean "Deano" has returned to the town where he grew up. He has a good job and nice home. He joins the rugby team at the urging of his mum, who thinks he 'needs to get out there'. Macca "Darren" is a country boy and fellow team member who takes Dean home after a nasty knock to the head during a game.It is sweet to watch the two men respond to each other and start to open up. This is not typical blokes bonding over pizza and beer while watching the game! "My heart was hammering in my chest and my mouth was suddenly dry. F**king hell. I think we just had ourselves a moment."For a short story there is an emotional depth to the characters and it is easy to imagine these two falling for each other. Macca is a wonderful person but undervalues himself and all Dean wants is honesty and love.I particularly liked the name change as both men started calling each other my their christian name, rather than nickname. This corresponds with the change in relationship as they start to get more personal and find out more about each other. It is the really well told tale of two rugby league players: big, strong, athletic men who find each other.I now publish all my m/m reviews on my blog so if you want to see all my m/m reviews in one place come visit at Because Two Men Are Better Than One!
