Review Tour:: The Sex Coach by Garrett Leaigh
Cover Design: Black Jazz Design
Length: 61,000 words approx.
Toby
There’s nothing attractive about a twenty-four year old virgin, especially not one who blushes every time a hot dude looks his way. But I can’t help the heat that ripples through me every time I see Cole Maguire. And the clench of my heart when I realise how unhappy he is. He’s a city boy with a baby on his hip—we have nothing in common—but if he can teach me how to own my sexuality, perhaps I can teach him he’s worth loving.
Cole
I don’t like horses. But I love my daughter, and there’s nothing I won’t do for her, including leaving the city for life on a farm. I’m ready for that, but I’m not ready for blushing stable hands who make my heart race and my blood run hot. Toby has no idea how beautiful he is. I can teach him that, if he can handle the heat, but after one night with him…damn.
Maybe it’s me that has a lot to learn.
The Sex Coach is an MM summer romance with first times, a virgin stable hand, a single dad pilates teacher, and guaranteed happy ending.
4 out of 5 stars
Cole and Toby come from two different worlds - or so it seems. Cole is a city boy. Toby has never been to the city. Cole is a new dad. Toby is a virgin. But all of those (and more differences aside) and their connection was instant and strong.
I enjoy this author's storytelling ability and drawing out the heart and soul of each character. I have read the Skins series and was familiar with the characters (though it had been quite awhile ago), but I didn't feel like it would have detracted from the story if I hadn't read them. This was Cole & Toby's story and just happened to take place on a farm with other characters we might have known before.
I enjoyed this story, but I struggled with a few places where it felt rushed or the story didn't flow quite right. Overall, this is a wonderful story of exploration and finding ones-self while helping someone else as well.
