Realistic and awfully cute story about a fratboy falling for his assigned pledge, figuring out how to reconcile his growing feelings with what he's been taught all his life and then finding the courage to come out. I liked T.K. quite a bit. He felt real, his confusion felt organic, and he grew quite a bit in a very short time. Carlos (Seven) was also portrayed realistically. The remaining frat brother, with their differing opinions and quiet support, even the guy who's a complete homophobic asshole, all felt as if they were living on a campus near you.Well done. Free from the M/M romance group. Excuse me while I check out more by this author. Such a cute story.This story just flowed. The characters were interesting and specially TK. Such a depth to him, his personality, his fears, his doubts.We get to see them all from his POV. And the fact that falling for Carlos is easy, scary yes but still felt natural.The fear of coming out to his brothers, is the bonus angst in the story. But is well done and resolves quickly.I liked the difference in perspective that the author gave to the scenes with just a change in the way TK addressed Carlos or Seven depending. It was a subtle change but it was there and you could feel it.
What do You think about Pledge Number Seven (2013)?
