Which Way to Dominance by Gavin Atlas (How the West Was Done Anthology by Editor Adam Carpenter) This novella was a short but complete story with likable characters. Will's feelings for Nick were not as clearly defined even at the end, and the resolution to their conflict seemed rushed. Ms Byrne touches lightly on sexual addiction - a subject key to the story that needed to be better fleshed out. The suspense part of the story felt contrived, although it did not affect my overall enjoyment of this piece as it was not really the central part of the story. Nick's obsession and love for Will are obvious and you can feel his pain, hurt feelings and his love for the young man, as well as his anxiety about the future. A young man who refuses to change his lifestyle and take help from Nick, even when there is a serial killer on the loose, Will is Nick's obsession and his secret love.ĭancing in the Dark was erotic and dished out enough angst for my taste.
