A truly spectacular story, Get Up deserves all the praise I can give it. When these guys finally get together, and I’m not going to spoil anything here, but these are some of the most erotic scenes I’ve read in a long time.įew things equal the rare and wonderful experience of a book I can’t put down. The dialog is clever and creative, and as the attraction builds between these two I thought the sexual tension might just kill me. My favorite part of Get Up is the way the characters express themselves.

This is a slow reveal, artfully done, and I never saw it coming. There are some intense things going on here and Reece Pine does an amazing job building the tension. As the men grow comfortable with each other and begin to interact on a more personal level, they are forced to confront their own damage before they can truly connect. This is a complex, multi-layered novel which builds consistently as the story progresses. Once I started Get Up I couldn’t put it down, and when I finished it I scrolled right back to the beginning and started reading again. The characters are one of a kind and the unpredictable plots are a pleasure to read. This is the second book I’ve read by Reece Pine and what struck me with both of them is the absolute originality of her stories. The unexpected twists and turns in this thoughtful story kept me fascinated and dying to see what would happen next. Seeing these two characters interact, and how their relationship changes both their lives was an intense and moving experience. One of the most unique and creative books I’ve read, Reece Pine’s Get Up completely blew me away. How can he convince Cam to come in from the cold… and why are they both really out there anyway? Guy knows he’s the best person to help Cam abandon the dangerous wilds outside and address those in Cam’s head, but he also knows that he’ll lose the chance if he comes clean about his ulterior motives for getting close to Cam. At times, Cam dissociates and is icier than Guy could ever be, yet he’s the only one who’s ever recognized, at a glance, the emotions burning beneath Guy’s surface. Guy’s investigation is soon biased by his attraction to Cam and the growing concern about Cam’s odd behavior. By agreeing also to help the eccentric ecologist survey wildlife for a month, Guy buys time to assess Cam’s innocence and hear stories about Cam’s late father–Guy’s favorite fantasy writer and the man whose book Cam is accused of stealing. Recently dumped (again) for being cold, Guy gladly accepts his publisher friend’s request to go to a remote hut in wintry Nunavut to find out whether aspiring novelist Cam Campbell is a plagiarist.
