5.0 out of 5 stars A great addition to the series!

I am really enjoying this series. Each book is a lot of fun to read and each story has it's own signature voice. <b><i>Dog Tags</b></i> the newest Brazen Boys to be released is my new favorite.

Jessie and Brandon have been neighbors since childhood. Growing up Jessie was the kid who was always picked on at school and Brandon was the silent outcast that everyone was afraid of. The two were never quite friends but when Brandon returns home on leave from the Army they are awkwardly brought together by Jessie’s stepbrothers need for a nicely mowed lawn. Brandon’s lawn moving services in exchange for piano lessons by Jessie leads to daily sexual encounters that then leads to so much more.

I think for romance readers this story is the most relatable. It definitely has some great erotic moments but also has the most heart. The relationship between Jessie and Brandon is really sweet and felt the most realistic and complete.

Another great addition to the series :)

I really enjoy Daryl Banner's work. This story is spicy with enough action between the characters to keep me wanting more. My only complaint, if you could call it one, was I didn't want the story to end. Love those military men!

3.0 out of 5 stars Wanted more middle...
Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2015

3.5 stars -- LOVED the ending, but it was slow to get there for me. I think it's because I couldn't get a good read on Brandon until nearer to the end...but I suppose I wasn't necessarily supposed to... I guess I just wanted more of the middle stuff after they get together, to see them interacting with each other and see the relationship grow. That part kind of got skipped over (or it felt that way to me).

5.0 out of 5 stars My absolute favorite so far!

This book. ::shakes head:: I FLOVED this book so hard! I have no words to really explain it. M/M is one of my favorite genre's next to dystopian. (I know, they have nothing in common right?)
Look, I try not to really talk about what happens in the books too much so as not to give anything away, but in this one I will make an exception. Cause when Brandon throws Ronnie out of the house for being a douche, that's when I kinda fell in love with him.
Ronnie: Big brother thinks he know everything and I really don't like his passive aggressiveness.
Jesse: cute boy next door, majors in music which tells me he is smarter than the average bear. (did I just age myself with that comment?)
Brandon: okay, nice bod notwithstanding: He has a depth and wisdom that completely blew me outta the water.

I think this is my favorite of all the Brazen Boys so far. I will def be reading the next one if the author keeps it up.

Favorite quote:
I'm snapped back to the present, the memory dropping to the floor and shattering like a glass of water.

5.0 out of 5 stars Favorite Brazen Boy story of mine!
Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2016

This story is easily (along with part 2) my favorite Brazen Boys book. I absolutely fell in love with both Jesse and Brandon. Everything about them, and them together (both sexually and platonically), were just perfect. They complimented each other really well, and the whole story just made me smile from beginning to end in one of those cheesy, book nerdy ways that make strangers look at you funny on the street.

Highly recommended, and definitely check out Commando, which is the sequel to this story. You won’t want to miss out on that, trust me. I loved these two stories so much, I’d darn near be willing to pay Mr. Banner myself to make a full length book (and series!) just about Jesse and Brandon. I’d eat that right up!

Overall, a very great addition to the Brazen Boys collection, and you should definitely check it out (and reread it a bajillion times like I have!)

As stated, it was predictable , but it developed the plot line which followed an erotic path and kept it there! This would make a great gay movie as it would show that the characters have some depth to their feelings for each other and that this love affair started years before when they were classmates and thats when Brandon fell in love with him. Of course the other didn't realize Brandon's feelings he only could fantasize his sexual attraction to Brandon, never realizing that it would turn into reality!.

5.0 out of 5 stars I shall reread this story...again..and again...
Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2015

I am so glad that I found this story. I took about 2 glorious hours to read it and now I am left feeling all mushy.
This story is more than a short erotica. It is very romantic, and lovingly sensuous. It is very different from other MM army stories that I read because of the characters... one is deeply introverted and stoic until he meets his other half... Oh. My Glowing Stars... the title of this story is perfect for the story too... The scenes involving the dog tags made me feel all warm in heart. I couldn't help but smile at those awesome scenes.... I shall jeep rereading this story whenever I need two hours of total pleasure.... Oh. I must say, the dialogue and the dynamics between the characters is loaded with deep meaning... I highly recommend this story!
I now am going to read the rest of The Brazen Boys stories!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!

Intrigued by the return of his neighbour, Jesse plays with himself...all the time! At first, I didn't think I'd enjoy this story until he meets his neighbour Brandon - not the first time since they went to school together - and the story becomes one that I cannot stop myself from reading. From sex to a HEA, this is a great MM story!

My one pet peeve, Jesse repeating things in threes. The first time was cute, the thousandth time (ok I'm exaggerating!) it annoyed me. But that's just me. The story is wonderful, nonetheless!

A short story that is really good fun to read, not just a piece of erotic fiction as I'd suspected.
