The Light in Your Eyes Book One
A Spy vs Spook Novel
Fifteen-year-old Theo Bascopolis longs for the man of his dreams. But his dreams are dashed when his conservative Greek father discovers Theo is gay and throws him out. Hopeless, he falls in with Fast Franky, a pimp who seduces Theo with the nickname “Sweetcheeks,” but abuses him and wants Theo to hustle. A bloody fight with Franky forces Sweetcheeks to run. Winding up in Washington, DC, he meets a group of rent boys who take care of each other. While he may not have the man of his dreams, Theo finally has a home and family of his own making.
When the boys take in mysterious tenant Mark Vincent, he seems a solid protector, until one of Sweetcheeks’s boys suffers a savage beating in his name. Vincent visits the boy in the hospital and introduces his equally enigmatic trainee, William Matheson. The instant attraction blindsides Sweetcheeks. In spite of knowing love isn’t for rent boys, Sweetcheeks hopes Matheson sees beyond the body he’s offered to so many. But Matheson has secrets of his own, and both will have to tear down their walls to find enduring love.

This review will cover both books in this series because they are peas-in-a-pod: A love story which begins in the first in a most haphazard way and keeps building and sizzling and moving and rolling all the way through to an emotionally charged, beautifully handled ending.Narrated by late 20s ex-rent boy (and spectacularly ginger) Theo Bascopolis (on the cover of the first book in the rear), this tale begins with him being ejected from his home by his very traditionally bigoted Greek father and left to flounder in the Florida wastelands until he is rescued and turned into a toy for men. The way he manages to escape his Florida pimp and eventually build a spectacularly successful, high-rent boy service in Washington D.C. in the late 1990s and early 200s is smoothly and entertainingly handled...until he encounters, quite by accident, William (Wills) Matheson, in a hospital corridor while waiting word on the condition of his best friend and co-rent boy Paul (aka Pretty Boy).
Now it takes an interesting turn because rescuing and helping to save Paul is Mark Vincent, who is one of the two protagonists in Tinnean's two other great series, Spy vs. Spook and Mann of My Dreams. Do you have to read them to enjoy these two? Well, maybe not but you'd be missing out an a whole heck of a lot of action, sex and fun if you skipped them. In fact, the scene in which Theo and Wills meet also takes place in a book in Spy vs. Spook, but in this one we get it from Theo's perspective, and eventually Wills'.
As it turns out, Wills is there as Mark Vincent's trusted second-in-command, but everyone thinks they work for a big tech company when the truth is they work for a super secret government agency that occasionally requires them to liquidate nasty people. So much fun because if you'd read one of the books in the other series you'd know what Mark Vincent is going to plan for Pretty Boy's revenge. Fortunately, Mark makes several appearances in these two books, and a couple of them with his own lover, Quinton Mann.
In any case, though the scene is repeated here, even though you will have already witnessed how Theo and Wills fell instantly in love in the other series, this repeat scene is told form Theo's unique perspective, and what a perspective it is. Though he has no clue when he and Wills start pawing each other that Wills is somewhat bi, he also has no clue as to why he is so overwhelmed by this man--plain speaking but witty, white-bread but of mixed heritage, ordinary looking but sex-on-a-stick, and completely and totally zapped with love for Theo from the start.
Most of both books are deep into Theo's denial that Wills can be so in love with him, and the way Tinnean handles this is superb because although Wills is not a narrator and as in the other two series you never really get to know how he handles the more unpleasant parts of his job, his manner of communicating with Theo in words, whispers, deeds and absolute surprises makes you feel as though you are actually living with them. Through all their joys, all their heartbreaks, all their misunderstandings, all their reconciliations, and all their happy days forever and forever.
What a joyful experience to have read these two books. Thank you, Tinnean.

Pick Up the Pieces The Light in Your Eyes Book 1 edition by Tinnean Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
sweetcheeks is compelling, engaging and fascinating. Theo is not. halfway through the story (when the romance began) this story lost all interest and purpose. the beginning was a character based almost autobiographical account of a young boy in the 80s who gets kicked out of his home for being gay, the last half of the book was uninteresting garbage that drones in and on with no plot, tension, climax or purpose. 3 stars because I enjoyed the beginning. I won't be reading the sequel or anything else from this author.
Great book
The same review applies for "Pick Up The Pieces", as I wrote for "Foolish Me" since this is the first part of the original story that I read online!
I first read this when it was posted on the internet. Loved it then and still do.
I am so glad I decided to continue the spy vs spook series. It makes the over all story much richer. Very nice.
The first part of the story is good. The characters develop over time and the "universe" the author lays out is interesting. However, the book gets really redundant. The relationship stagnates and the main character is barely recognizable by the end of the book. Unfortunately the same thing goes for book 2 which I didn't even finish.
Tinnean has become one of those authors that I just can't go wrong with. Every time I pick one I enjoy it!! Thanks for continuing to bring such joy to my life with your engaging characters and story lines. Anyone who doesn't have this yet, you are missing out!!! Come to the light!!! Or the dark side!!! Just... come here and get this book!!!! If you like it half as much as I do you won't be disappointed.
