Paul Mayeda Berges and Gurinder Chadha. A young man, hanging out with two friends who taunt all women who walk by, strikes up a friendship with a young Muslim woman. Their humor also comes through in both subtle and guffaw-worthy ways. Yup, I guffawed more than once. The story is hyper-realistic like the ones that came before it, but it works for these characters and this writer's style. It's total escapism yet it feels earthy due to the relationships between all of the characters: I like that mix.
It gives me the chance to escape and yet easily connect to these people and their surroundings, their conversations and difficulties. The heat level is a bit higher in this one compared to the others, but again it's mostly off-page and isn't the focus of the story. The adventure, danger, humor and heroics are the stars of this show. Due to some of the aspects of this story, it's a bit heavier in subject matter than Glen and Tyler have encountered before. This is never allowed to go so far as to overshadow the action movie type feel to the story, though.
Again, an enjoyable mix. This is one that definitely lands on my comfort food shelf, right along with the first two books in the series. I will definitely be there to join in the fun. D This was one of the best narrations I've listened to in some time. Rollins had to do German, French and British accents. He had to speak some lines in French and German. He had a unique voice for each character, all of them different ages and nationalities, some humorous, some stoic, I loved them all. It's not easy to keep all of those straight, let alone do it as a performance and maintain the tension, allow the humor to come through and vary the tenor, along with matching the tone to the intentions of the characters.
I just loved it. Sanders has wonderful humor in his stories and Rollins translates that audibly to near perfection. It's such a treat to hear Glen and Tyler teasing each other. It's fun to hear them getting cute and passionate and taking care of business when it comes to helping those they love. I highly recommend Brian Rollins and his narration. I just checked and he's done all three of the books in this series. I may have to pick those up, too!
Jul 29, Shree rated it really liked it. I won this book through the Goodreads Giveaway! Hardcover book signed by the writer. I really loved the book. The humor, the plot, the characterization. While I like the idea of "putting on a show" for Glen, being left in the dark about all the behind-the-scenes goodies wasn't as much fun for me.
On the other hand, these two are so completely adorable together that I just can't keep myself from oooh-ing and squee-ing and awww-ing my way through the books. Nov 05, Ulysses Dietz rated it really liked it. Two college hockey jocks who slipped into roommate status in their post-graduate years, both presumably straight, who, at just the right moment, discover the truth of their deep feelings for each other.
These are the kind of jock boys of whom I would have been leery in college; and yet in these books, I know that I would love them completely. And then it really gets crazy. Tyler had to marry to claim his inheritance, which both he and Glen assumed might be a few million dollars. Two things happen when they marry: In the most Disney-magical way, that kiss pulls the lid off their passion for each other, carefully buried under a lifetime of social and gender expectations. A nasty corporate Puppet Master inadvertently turns over one of the largest fortunes in the world to his twenty-five-year-old bisexual grandson and his newly-married husband.
Hilarity, of a rather sinister kind, ensues. This third chapter in the series takes Tyler shorter, debonair, raised for wealth, but remarkably discreet about it and Glen tall, redheaded and athletic, in spite of which he is a serious medievalist who has just earned his PhD in Scotland and pushes them even deeper into the Byzantine labyrinths of global power and money. But Glen and Tyler are good boys — Batman and Robin in the face of worldwide purveyors of greed and violence. They hold hands in public, and they get away with it. The Paris double-cross of the title is the most complicated and messy and, frankly, hard to follow of the adventures so far.
Just as Glen does, the reader has to simply let go, and trust that Tyler, raised for this, and as we learn specially trained as well, will rise to the occasion, bringing with his intelligence and style all of the courage and big-heartedness that his love for Glen inspires in him. For that is at the core: They are the new millennial Theban Warriors. They are the super heroes that every gay teen needs; that every older gay man such as myself relishes. It is all a fantasy, but Sanders gives it the kind of simple, honest power that Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter had for two different generations of non-straight young readers.
These books are all about vengeance — but without violence and without cruelty. Even though published in , this volume speaks directly to the global corporate and political selfishness that seems to be rocking our world in It reminds us of all the bad that wealth and the quest for it can engender; but it also reiterates the great truth that good can prevail, especially when fueled by selfless love for others.

Jun 09, Bellbomb Bellbomb rated it it was amazing. Fascinatingly enjoyable as the first two books. I doubt Glen realized what he was getting himself into when he first proposed to Tyler. I hope Glen has a more active role in book 4 though because in this volume, Tyler pretty much steals the whole show! Along with Antoine and Rebecca.
Glen & Tyler's Paris Double-cross
Jul 22, F. My first foray into Glen and Tyler land and probably not my last. It was over the top and completely unbelievable but I liked it. A bit like a Boy's Own adventure except most of the action seemed to happen off page. It was hard not to wonder if Glen felt a bit like a spare tyre at times - kept in the dark and only bought out in emergencies but never left behind.
May 16, Frank W Butterfield rated it it was amazing Shelves: There are two things that I absolutely adore about this book: The restaurant scene where some old-school bad guys are just laid out by Tyler. I'll be back for more!! More world saving capers from Glen and Tyler. I enjoy these ott tales as the writing is clean, fast paced and engages. I enjoyed the double twists that Tyler has laid down though Glen was very sanguine about being left in the dark most of the time - definitely Tyler's show, this one.
Good clean rollicking fun. Aug 15, Sadonna rated it really liked it Shelves: Stupid goodreads bastards ate my perfect review of this book. Now I have to recreate! He's been arrested on a trumped up false charge of art theft. While they are trying to to get Lance out of jail, they are also trying to solve a much bigger puzzle. It turns out that the bad grandfather has once again set something in motion that Tyler is going to have to fix.

There a lots of bad guys in this one - each group worse than the last. Luckily Tyler's run-ins with the bad guys from the previous books has given him some street cred ; As they try to solve they puzzle, they are able to user Glen's knowledge of Medieval history. There are bored cops, homophobic jerks, a seductive tango lots of dancing in this one and a hot French boyfriend for Lance. And there's a Sargent!
I love Paris and it's fun too see it through these guys' eyes! Tyler has been working on this for some time and he's been working towards the big reveal for Glen.

This is a bit like foreplay for them ; It's another entertaining and fast paced romp through one of the world's great cities. These guys are fun and adorable and hilarious. I can't wait to read about their next adventure. We get a peak at the end of the story as to who they will be helping next and it's a doozy. The are funny and sweet without being sappy and have some surprises that will keep you reading to see what happens next. Really a breath of fresh air. Dec 30, Cookie Moretti rated it it was amazing. These boys are just too much. There isn't a single sex scene in any of the books but I love their chemistry.

They're best friends and lovers. The book was crazy and predictable but the point was to enjoy the ride that Tyler cooked up, and like Glen, I did. Can't wait for book 4!! As expected, once I started this book I couldn't stop. Seriously more people need to be reading these books. Probably the best indie series I've read. May 08, Elisa Rolle rated it it was amazing. May 09, Alec rated it really liked it.
The humour, the plot, the general feeling of "you lucky bastards" you get when you inhale the words - all spot on. Such a feel-good, no-worries read. View all 4 comments. This series is one of is one of those exceptions. Things that would normally drive me nuts in another series, somehow work here. Every book has been incredibly OTT, with little to no realism, but I just don't care.
It's a fun read. I like that Tyler and Glen have been together for a while this book. I would say they are more solid They just seem more in tune with each other than ever. Glen was completely chill about being left in the dark about Tyler's p This series is one of is one of those exceptions. Glen was completely chill about being left in the dark about Tyler's plans. I thought it was funny that Glen was able to work out steps in moments, that took Tyler's team months to figure out.
Tyler takes a special glee in riling up peoples tail feathers. It's pretty funny, but without Glen at his side, I could see him taking a walk on the dark side.
They are perfect together. No one is that perfect together. I'd like to see them get into an argument sometime. Even if it's just for leaving a towel on the floor. Fun book, Fun series. I look forward to the next. This book follows the same formula as the others in the over the top wackiness. I didn't expect anything less. This time the duo find themselves in the middle of a huge conspiracy of ultra-wealthy elite conservatives and some nazi's thrown in for some added fun.
Glen in out of the loop so Tyler can show off how great he is but Glen still gets to use his brain to solve the puzzle clues that lead to a nazi treasure. This book outdoes the rest in unbelievably points but still doesn't lose any of it This book follows the same formula as the others in the over the top wackiness. This book outdoes the rest in unbelievably points but still doesn't lose any of its charm and humor.
I have a feeling eventually this line of story will get boring but right now it is just a fun ride. Dec 22, Dan rated it it was amazing. OoooLaLa Coitus interuptus, conspiracies, and cabals The guys take Paris by storm to save one of their own. New characters are introduced, old characters are fleshed out, and secret plans are hatched and plots foiled. Depending on whose side you're on a great time is had by all most especially the readers.
Mr Sanders continues to be a favorite of mine and his characters are pure gold. I love this series, it's so funny. It's a fun, brilliant read. This one was as exciting as the previous two and I can't get enough of Glen and Tyler. I love how selfless they are with their money, and at the same time, they throw it in people's faces. Highly re I love this series, it's so funny. Highly recommend this series This review can be found at The Blogger Girls review site. Lance being framed for art theft is just the tip of the iceberg when Glen and Tyler are once again thrust into conspiracies and plots of their demise.
