Katey Hawthorne (Goodreads Author)

Econ student Hansen Marks has been hot for Sam MacLeod since they first bonded over their secret superpowers--literally hot, since Hansen can produce fire from thin air. But soccer star Sam was always covered in girls, so Hansen kept his attraction in the closet and convinced himself that "best friends" was better than nothing.

What I Liked:
I didn’t completely hate it
It was fairly short

What I Didn’t Like:
At first it seemed like everyone knew about the “awakened” with all the science explanation for why they were the way they were but then it turns out very few people know about them so it seemed to contradict itself

It was apparently a GFY where he went instantly gay. He broke up with his girlfriend and hooks up with his male roommate that night. No explanation given never appears to question it or seem like he ever ...more

The writing is good overall, I just wish that more had happened. There really wasn't much of an original plot despite what potential there was. I liked the characters. I suppose my real complaint is just that it seemed like very little was happening, and that made the pace rather slow, especially for a short novella such as this.

This book was... Quite different, frankly. I know these types of books are out there, but this is the first M/M book I've read that has a superpower theme. I was a bit apprehensive, of course, just like the way people are when trying out something new. But a lot of things worked here for me - and I'm not even sure if I can list down all the reasons why I liked this book a lot. Because honestly? Some part of me still isn't sure what I liked so much about this.

What I do know is the fact that This book was... Quite different, frankly. I know these types of books are out there, but this is the first M/M book I've read that has a superpower theme. I was a bit apprehensive, of course, just like the way people are when trying out something new. But a lot of things worked here for me - and I'm not even sure if I can list down all the reasons why I liked this book a lot. Because honestly? Some part of me still isn't sure what I liked so much about this.

What I do know is the fact that Hansen was an incredible narrator. His voice is really wonderful; it's casual and simple but his personality really pulls through from the pages. He's dorky, but he doesn't push any stereotypes. I thought his explanations about equilibrium were pretty fitting - they held my attention, something I can't really say about game theory and economics in general. Sam was a cool character, too. These two are definitely interesting characters, and from the first page I already rooted for Hansen and Sam to get together. They pretty much do so early in the book, but of course they have their issues to straighten out.

However, there are no huge misunderstandings that force a rift to grow in between these two young men. I liked that a lot. For once, we have protagonists who actually communicate - albeit they do so in their own silly way. Sometimes their conversations come in late, but these guys aren't fast in making conclusions. They did have their own insecurities, though. These same insecurities made way for a considerate amount of minor angst (which, in turn, actually caused a lump to form in my throat in some scenes), but nothing was overdone. Their chemistry was absolutely great! This is essentially a friends-to-lovers type of story, and there is an easy camaraderie between these two. Their friendship isn't compromised by their new relationship (although Hansen seems to think so). Also, I found myself not really minding Nessa at all. I liked her, in some ways, and an author who can write an ex-girlfriend whom I don't find annoying is always a good author.

Like Ami said in her review, I could have benefited more from more world-building. I couldn't understand terms like "EMF" (which I eventually figured out was electromagnetic field, or something) and "sleeper" - plus we don't really know why these awakened people have powers, other than the mention of an organ in passing. I also would've appreciated a bit more elaboration on what happened with Uncle Neil and on the sleepers who go witch-hunting. What do these witch-hunters do and how bad can their actions be? I am of the understanding, though, that there will be more stories set in the same universe, and hopefully we'll get more answers by then.

So, overall, I enjoyed this book a lot. It's quite different from the normal stuff - which sets this apart and makes it memorable. It combines a lot of unusual aspects, like superpowers and game theory, and actually makes it work. I'll gladly read it again at some point.

The core of this story is a friends-to-lovers series, with a touch of GFY (since Sam, an electric type, dates women before). I enjoy Hansen's voice (he's the narrator, a thermal type) -- it is a bit dorky but funny too. I mean, come on, explaining about he doesn't date by using Nash's (from A Beautiful Mind) Equilibrium theory? That's a first :p

Unfortunately, there is a lack of world-building/background to give this story a context, and make it great. And despite the "scare" that happens near ...more

A paranormal romance about guys with superpowers (awakened) living amongst us non-powerful (sleepers), NO vamps/weres/sprites or demons, they just control physical phenomena like heat and electricity.

Hansen and Sam are college roomies; Hansen is gifted with ‘heat/fire control’ and helps Sam learn to control his ‘electric’ abilities. This is a GFY with Sam seemingly into girls until he discovers that Hansen has been secretly yearning for him for four years. There’s a pretty immediate ...more

This is a very sweet best friends to lovers story. I couldn't help but hold my breath for Mark who worried that Sam would not want to stay because Mark figured Sam was basically straight. Sam made me proud as he stayed steadfast. I liked the paranormal aspect and the little problems it caused. I couldn't truly view Trent as a 'villain' and felt sorry him...okay he was dangerous but I still felt for him. A very enjoyable afternoon read. 3.5 Stars

See, I always *knew* there was stuff going on most of us didn't know about!

Sam is a jock-boy (only a bit smarter than that usually implies) who has a little extra kick of electricity -- make that a BIG extra kick of electricity -- running through him.

Hansen's a bit of a nerd who can manipulate temperature.

Sam is a jock-boy (only a bit smarter than that usually implies) who has a little extra kick of electricity -- make that a BIG extra kick of electricity -- running through him.

Hansen's a bit of a nerd who can manipulate temperature.

I love that there's Real Science floating around -- Sam's electricity builds up and needs to be released and in order to do it safely he has to be grounded. Nothing magical, just touching the ground, like a lightning rod. And wearing a minimum of clothing, presumably so nothing sparks and catches fire. And Hansen describes his own abilities as being able to affect the speed at which molecules vibrate, speeding them up for heat and slowing them down to dampen it. Sam's a bit of a live wire, but Hansen admits that his own powers are basically, comparatively pretty weak; primarily he uses them in lieu of having to microwave stuff that's gotten cold, and to warm up when it's chilly out (please can he come live with me? My feet are always cold.)

At the beginning, Sam's pretty startled when Hansen approaches him about his electrical difficulties -- he was adopted and doesn't know *anything* about these special abilities, just that he needs to keep them hidden, but they're a bit beyond his control and he keeps shorting out small appliances. Hansen reassures him that he knows someone who can help him get it all under control (in fact, Hansen's uncle Neil had been a powerful electrical type, but had been seen by someone with no power and murdered). So Hansen's family helps Sam.

There's a bit of a Gay-for-You theme; Sam's only shown as dating girls previously, but after breaking up with the current girlfriend, he puts the moves on Hansen, who's reluctant to date him, initially. Of course, they get over that, have some nice external difficulties (no Big Misunderstandings here; just some nice, normal ones that they talk over and get over fairly quickly after a couple of minor random storming-outs.) Not going to get into that, though, as it'll get spoilery quickly.

A couple of things I liked -- while I totally believe in Insta-Love (been there, done that, got the husband, house, pets and kids)I really like that it didn't happen in this story. Insta-lust on the part of Hansen when he first meets Sam, yeah, but he keeps it to himself, and nothing happens until they've known each other for years, lived as roommates for nearly as long, and Sam is the one who finally decides what he wants and makes the first move. It was tidy and normal and didn't feel like anyone was pushing anyone into a relationship they didn't want. Yes, Sam was pushing Hansen into a relationship, but he knew, and the reader knew, that it was one Hansen *wanted* but wasn't quite ready to believe in yet. Also, I love that Hansen, the Econ Major, kept spouting off about Nash Equilibrium and game theory. I was impressed that he wasn't jealous of the fact that Sam's powers are so much greater than his. Vanessa, Sam's last girlfriend, was not painted as a stereotype. She was just a nice, normal girl. She got mad that Sam broke up with her the way he did, even though they both kind of knew it was over, but when she had a chance to get really mean and bitchy, she chose to talk calmly and nicely to both Sam and Hansen, and ended up being a friend to the guys. I would have kind of like to see more of her, actually.

The "stuff I didn't like" mostly centers around MoreMoreMoar! I liked the guys and didn't want to leave them (luckily there are two shorts!) I liked their friends and wanted to see them slightly more well-rounded as characters. Part of me wanted to see more of Trent, but part of me also realizes that in real life, they probably wouldn't have spent any more time than necessary sharing space with him after all that happened.

Overall, a sweet, fun, light little read, with some good laughs. ...more

Hansen Marks first meets Sam MacLeod when he sees him almost blow up a toaster in the college cafeteria. Hansen instantly recognizes that Sam is someone like himself -- a person with "awakened" superpowers. In Hansen's case, he can create and control fire, while Sam's powers lie with electricity. Sam is shocked when Hansen approaches him because he never realized there were others out there with powers too. Unlike Hansen who grew up in a family of awakened, Sam was adopted and never met anyone else like himself. His power is strong, but still not totally within his control.

A few years later we find Sam and Hansen as best friends and roommates. But although Sam appears to see Hansen as just a friend, Hansen is totally into Sam. He has been crushing hard since college, but he understands that things aren't going to happen between them. Sam has a girlfriend after all (despite the fact that things between them are fizzling fast). Yet that doesn't keep Hansen from lusting after him, especially when Sam walks around the house in only his underwear.

Sam is still periodically frying electrical appliances as he figures out how to keep his abilities in check. His power is strong and when his emotions are high they sometimes get out of his control. One night he accidentally starts an electrical fire, and fortunately Hansen is right there to put it out. But others see them and suddenly the men risk exposure for their abilities, something Hansen especially knows can lead to trouble.

As the guys are dealing with this, things in their relationship are heating up as well. Hansen finally confirms to Sam that he is gay, and Sam admits he has been attracted to Hansen all along. And when Sam breaks up with his girlfriend, the guys take their first steps toward a relationship together. Although Hansen worries a bit about whether this is what Sam really wants, Sam reassures him that these feeling are not new. Now the guys just need to figure out whether they can make things work between them while dealing with threats of exposure and Sam's lack of control over his powers.

I really liked Equilibrium and getting to know Sam and Hansen. I especially enjoyed the contrast between the guys in terms of their backgrounds. Having grown up in an awakened family, these things are second nature to Hansen. He has trained to use his powers for years and comes from a family of people who know and understand him. Sam, on the other hand, just suddenly woke up one day sparking electricity and having no idea what was going on. Although he is close with his family, he had no one to help him deal with his powers until Hansen and has felt alone in many ways. Hansen is able to give him a sense of community and make him feel less isolated. Sam says at one point that Hansen has saved his life, helping him figure things out and feel less scared or like a freak. We get the story from Hanson's POV, which allows us to watch Sam as he grows in his power, control, and self-confidence.

I also liked the way things work out with Sam's girlfriend Nessa. Although both Sam and Nessa behave badly during the breakup, they are able to work things out over the course of the book and remain friends, and even confidants. Both end up in a better place than they were when they were together. I really appreciated seeing them work through their mistakes rather than relegating Nessa to the "bitchy ex-girlfriend" role that is all too common in m/m romance. We can understand her point of view and both of them move forward to better things after their break up.

The title of the story refers to Nash Equilibrium, a game theory that deals with figuring out people's self interests as a way to determine their behavior and your own best actions. At least I think that's the gist of it. I will admit that despite careful reading, this did go a bit over my head. It comes up primarily regarding Hansen's concerns about whether Sam is really serious about a relationship with him, especially since he has only seen him with women prior to the two of them dating.

Which leads me to my other small issue, which is I was a bit confused about Hansen. As readers we know he is gay from the start, but I had trouble understanding if he is out before he and Sam begin dating. It seemed odd that if Hansen was out that Sam would have no idea when the two are such close friends. By the end of the book it is clear that Hansen's family knew he is gay, so I assume he was partially out at least? But maybe only to them? In reality, this doesn't really matter to the story, but I did find it confusing.

Overall I really enjoyed Equilibrium. I loved the contrast between Sam and Hansen and the mixture of strength and vulnerability that they each had. The book nicely blends the various plot points of Sam learning his powers, combined with the guys facing threats of exposure, along with the building of the relationship between them. Sam and Hansen were both great characters and very hot together. Really good story. ...more

This may very well be just my personal issues, having grown up with superhero stories, but I see "superpowers" in a blurb and I just automatically imagine the superpowered trying to use their abilites to help people. So when that wasn't at all what this story was about, I was more than a little taken aback.

The whole tone of this was just so very much different from what I had anticipated. Ominous and angsty and rather frustrating at times, as opposed to the light-hearted super-powers story I'd expected. Hansen keeps not only his abilities secret from everyone but Sam, but he also keeps his sexuality secret--from everyone. And then even once Sam figures out Hansen is gay, Hansen does his best to keep his feelings from Sam.

(view spoiler)

Sam, though. Sam saves the story. He is so sweet and so brave and so patient. What he did to call Hansen out on the attraction he'd felt earlier that day was amazing. And how persistent he was in not letting Hansen shut him out was beautiful.

Once I accepted that this story wasn't going to be what I thought it was, I was able to relax and enjoy it for what it really was. The relationship between Hansen and Sam, once Hansen stopped trying to talk his way out of it, was lovely and very worth the read. (The superhero-nerd in me, though, can't help but wish I'd gotten to see more awesome super-power wielding. :P)

Favorite Quotes:
He was a good roommate and a better friend. He only got on my nerves when I needed to concentrate and he needed to be naked.

"But I was really lucky it happened now, because ... because I just needed to know that someone--that you could still love me when I--even when I was fucking up the whole world." ...more
