I call this one my fake historical *laughs*
Since it deals with people of today put in an historical setting for a reality show. Might not have been as interesting if the characters in question had not being avid historical fans themselves, incredibly happy with the prospect of living out their fantasy life. It was sadly very short and as such could only focus on the fast relationship between Noah (the pretty lord of the mansion) and Ethan (the big strapping servant). It was cute seeing them sneaking around to avoid cameras, reality shows being what they are. ( )

Noah and Ethan are two characters in an historical reality program. They have to play the roles of pioneers in a frontier setting, Noah in the role of the landowner and Ethan the manservant.

In real world, Noah is a software consulting and Ethan an history professor, even if this last has not the body to fit the real work, and instead is more in role with the fiction: he is a big and strong man. Noah instead is a classical pretty cute bottom. From the first time they meet, there is mutual attraction, and they will take all the chance they have to stay together.

The story is pretty short, less than 50 pages, and it's almost spent in describing the relationship between Noah and Ethan. There are only some hints on the fact that they are playing in a reality, and the outside world to their relationship is almost inexistent.

I like both Noah and Ethan as characters, they are the classical bottom and top, and as in almost all the stories by Jad Falconer, Noah is very pretty, almost feminine. Ethan instead, even if very strong in body, and with a dominant attitude, is also a very caring man, and it's quite interesting to see the contrast between a rough exterior and the quite deep interior of this character.

I think that the idea, the historical reality program, and the characters would deserve a bit longer novel.
