On the Clock (Market Garden #8) [Blake & Jason] by L.A. Witt & Aleksandr Voinov

My, my, this one was HOT! I really enjoyed the previous novels in the series but I was wondering how this one would play.. Blake, aka "Rolex", the guy who brought Tristan and Jared together, wasn't what I found appealing in their story, I only saw him there as a "side show". But I gotta say, I really enjoyed how he fell for Jason and the fact Jason was TRYING to play it cool but it became more clear as the story progressed that he sees more in Blake even though we only got Blake's POV. 

Blake has A LOT of money and so when he comes for business from US to UK he enjoys spending it on "proper" Market Garden rentboys.. When Tristan and Jared left he wasn't sure he will find what he is looking for but Jason came HIGHLY recommended from them so though he found a few others in the club appealing he went with their suggesting and he was NOT disappointed. While he enjoys bartering, Jason gets a real kick out of being paid with money and sometimes "trophies". Not only that Jason KNOWS what he is doing and how much he is worth. 

They had a sort of click, almost from the start so when Blake returned home they kept lightly in touch so when he came back they had more between them than just the sex, when Jason comes home with Blake as an escort things change for Blake but for Jason it's different, I think it only confused him more. When Blake realizes how much Jason means to him he needs to make a decision and it's not an easy one, not to mention it all depends on Jason's reaction which is NOT what he expected from the start, granted Jason wasn't expecting Blake's confession as well. 

I liked how it ended. It's a bit of an "open" end. There isn't a clear HEA but I can see it building and progressing into one so I didn't really mind. I can see how it could work for them even if I think some people would have a problem with the resolve. 

From a mention of 2 other Market Garden employees, I'm hoping we'll get more installments! I SO didn't expect to like this series yet I DO! It's fun, it's sexy as hell, and it brings a unique story with every novel.    

 Grab and read for sure! But be advised if you have problem with a different kind of fetish, threesomes and well, foursomes.. maybe it's not for you ;)

ABOUT THIS SERIES
 
Market Garden is an Erotica MM Romance series by L.A. Witt and Aleksandr Voinov

Welcome to Market Garden, a London club that caters to the better-off. Businessmen and bankers come here to relax and indulge in their every whim and fantasy, and Market Garden offers it all in top-shelf quality: threesomes, voyeuristic pleasures, domination, ropes and camo and leather. Men of every stripe, colour, and nationality deliver these high-end services—everyone has their reasons to sell sex. 
And it’s the hottest sex in town.

And sometimes, it’s even served with a side of true love.

While I didn't know what to expect when I started the first installment in the series, now I can definitely say it's an absolute favorite! I liked some better than other, mostly "Capture & Surrender" but also "Tristan and Jared" story. 

Each couple has their own stand alone novel / bundle and while all the installments are rather short they do bring us a full story with a sweet "Happy for now" feeling at the end. 

As long as you stick to one couple there isn't much importance to the order in which you read these. I think it's better to pick a couple and read their installments together and not read the whole series by the order it was written (mostly because Tristan & Jared's ending is in the 6th installment though their previous installments are the first and second in the series). That being said, the 7th installment should be read after reading Nick & Spencer's story as well as Frank & Brandon's (meaning installment #3-#5) since they both appear as formed couples in that final installment. 

If you're looked these ones up and discovered pretty pretty covers it's because they are all re-published by Aleksandr Voinov. They're the same though. Still recommended :)
