This is book 3 in the Slice of Pi Series. You do not need to have read the other 2 to be able to keep up with the characters in book 3. Although I plan to go back; read the first 2. I enjoyed the authors way of writing; she was able to create a story that will have you turning the pages to see how it will end for Silas and Matthew. Yes this is a MM romance but written in such a way that you feel as thought it is two people learning how to navigator a new relationship.

Silas Benson does not do much but work. He is a biomedical engineer that has a work ethic that will make most cringe. There is no time for fun, relaxing or non sense. Silas was raised to believe that if you were not doing your best then you were lacking. So Silas puts 110% into working; even on the weekends. 

Matthew Abrams has a great job; gaming programmer; that he enjoys. He has a second job bartending; giving him a chance to meet new people. He knows how to just relax and enjoy life. He has never really wanted more out of life but sometimes when you are in a position too long; you do desire for more.

A chance encounter at Matthew's second allows him to meet Silas. At first, the attraction between the two is instant but Silas does not do things like this. After a couple of drinks, Silas loosens up and takes a chance on a beautiful stranger. When things between Matthew and Silas head up at the bar, there is only one thing that can happen, they will need to explore more of each other or will Silas keep running and not really living?

When Silas is put on leave from work; he turns to Matthew. Silas has no idea how to do nothing with his time. Matthew will show him the way but as things heat up between the two; words will fly that will cause them both to rethink how they feel about each other and themselves.

Will Silas and Matthew be able to work out their differences to see that they are a match for each other? Or will they allow words in the heat of the moment end their game before it has truly started?
