Five sex-free dates was the deal. Owen doesn't do dating but to get to Nathan's pants - a boy got to do what he ought to do. 
 I'm now getting Jay Northcote's style. Her stories so far have that similar light-feel vibe and characters with almost identical POVs from her other stories. This novella is no different. Both Owen and Nathan have had crushes with each other since their uni days but neither was aware of the fact. Owen was openly gay and Nathan was still securely hiding in the closet by then. When they see each other again, the five sex-free dates was made because according to Nathan - he doesn't want to be another Owen's conquest ---Ookay. 
 So the cute and bubbly dates went on - it was an easy read from start to finish and does not have unnecessary dramas. I've expected more at the end but I guess since they're still at the dating stage, I just have to make do with it. Both MCs are sexy and adorable and the whole story was just fun. I highly recommend this to those who are seeking angst-free stories.
