The plot is crazy town but we get lots of interaction with Dylan who I love and adore watching come back into his own. Joey just does stuff. Dylan is ready to have sex again. Joey "lets" him have sex with him. There is a a lot of gay for you here which I can't stand 2. There is a a lot of gay for you here which I can't stand but really we get good hints that Joey's messed up relationship with his dad has really wrecked is ability to be. However, he always acts with kindness toward Dylan and does whats best so if you ignore what Joey thinks and says Nov 26, Tammy rated it really liked it Shelves: At first when Joey and Dylan went into the office I was mad at some of the hurtful comments that Joey would make with his co-workers realizing they did also hurt Dylan as well.
Throughout the book though Joey took extremely good care of Dylan even out in public when Dylan was very touchy-feely so I forgave Joey for being a shit at work sometimes.
He always put Joey first throughout the book which was sweet.

Jan 22, Shandra rated it really liked it Shelves: Joey Carbone comes across as this homophobic asshole which is exactly how he sees himself until he finally gets his wish to work with a shifter partnerand they stick him with extremely, obviously gay Dylan, fox shifter and fragile former soldier.
I literally did not expect him to turn out to be a decent guy for Dylan without it changing him on pretty much a molecular level. It made sense he'd want to do whatever he could to keep a shifter partner, but being sensitive to a gay gu Fun and Foxy! It made sense he'd want to do whatever he could to keep a shifter partner, but being sensitive to a gay guy who literally loves to smell him?

I didn't see it happening. Dylan is sort of a magical creature in that he's wicked while being wholesome at the same time. He has this oversensitive way to him which seems more difficult to deal with than Joey's acidic qualities.
I think he'd drive me completely insane in a day. I have a Grumpy Old Man Cat for a reason.

I also think it says a lot about the kind of man Joey is that he manages to be the rock this crazy fox needs without going nuts himself. I laughed way more than I should have today because of this book. I'd absolutely recommend people start this series with this book. It's fantastic and fun all the way through.

So much better than the first two books in the series. Aug 19, jaxnsmom rated it really liked it Shelves: I loved Dylan, his affectionate ways drew me right to him. Nov 29, Mike rated it really liked it Shelves: While this series would seem to be right up my alley, the first two installments were not well reviewed, so I skipped them.
However, based on recommendations from friends, I took the plunge on this one and I'm glad I did.
For those who like adorable, little shifter animals, this book has "cuteness" in spades. The traumatized little fox at the center of the story had such an "awww" factor for me it made the entire book. The story itself was fine, and the characters interesting enough, with a homop While this series would seem to be right up my alley, the first two installments were not well reviewed, so I skipped them. The story itself was fine, and the characters interesting enough, with a homophobic cop being a nice foil for the emotionally wounded and very gay fox shifter.
The result is a Gay for You tale wrapped into the "Shifters and Partners" world, neither of which are my favorite themes, but Joey the gruff cop's protectiveness worked nicely with the adorable, hyperactive fox. There was just enough conflict to weave an interesting enough story around the cute and gruff pair's developing relationship. The weakest part of the book for me involved the other characters in the Shifters and Partner's series. The couples from the first two books seemed interesting yet contradictory and not always well-written, on the one hand piquing my curiosity a bit but overall not enough to put the first two installments at the top of my "to read" list.
Dec 17, Bergur Arnar rated it did not like it. I don't even know why I picked this book up when I already read a novella by the same author and immensely disliked it. Anyway, I decided to give the author another shot and in her defense, it isn't badly written. It's got a nice flow and a good use of language. However, it was seriously lacking in the story department.
It was not believable at all and just didn't work for me. A lot of things were quite unbelievable in this novella: TheCloset view spoiler [So Joey was a bit of a homophobic t I don't even know why I picked this book up when I already read a novella by the same author and immensely disliked it. TheCloset view spoiler [So Joey was a bit of a homophobic twat all his life and then suddenly just decides to have sex with a guy and to come out of the closet in like two weeks? Faggotismrules view spoiler [All of the six major characters were gay.
And they all worked for a law enforcement agency. ChildishThings view spoiler [Dyl's childish behaviour was just way too much. It was just unbelievable and quite frankly annoying. It certainly wasn't cute or adorable. He was running around, buying stuff he didn't need like gumballs and literally hanging onto another person in public.

I did like Joey's mum, though. Mar 16, Carly rated it really liked it Shelves: A sweet little romance about opposites who attract and finding love in unexpected places. Joey is lovably confused by his feelings for Dylan, the ginger haired fox that seems to idolize him almost from the very start. Together they form a friendship that translates into a working relationship that surprises them both. I fell in love with Dylan almost f A sweet little romance about opposites who attract and finding love in unexpected places.
I fell in love with Dylan almost from the start and I wanted to hug him so hard. His optimistic and gentle nature challenges Joey to be a better man, one that Dylan already believes he sees. Not as intense as Tom and Sean's stories, Joey and Dylan have their own special brand of chemistry.
Hollis Shiloh never disappoints as each installment in this series seems to be my favorite! May 13, Toofan rated it did not like it Shelves: This book has many problems on many levels. Some of stories problems, ignoring the writing style and editing problems include: Dylan's behavior matches that of somebody with Down syndrome or some varieties of autism. The worse example Dylan's behavior switching from mentally compromised to normal view spoiler [ when he wants to go clubbing or have sex hide spoiler ] and back again.
And whilst authors like Colleen McCullough in "Tim", have addressed the issue of sexual intimacy with mentally disabled individuals, their approached is logical and realistic, whilst Hollis Shiloh's is everything but. Dec 15, MyzanM rated it really liked it Shelves: I actually loved Joey! I couldn't belive that after the first books, but here it is! Unapologetic about his asshole ways he gets under your skin like Dylan gets under yours.
Loved that they didn't need to stay with the law enforcement and that they found an alternative that actually worked for them both. Aug 15, John-Torleif Harris rated it it was amazing. Excellent Joey is one of my favorite characters in this whole series. I love getting to see his struggles, and his journey of coming to accept, then care for, then love Dylan. And, like Joey, I've also always been fascinated with foxes. Mar 12, Gerald Sessions rated it it was amazing. What works Joey was that guy with the offensive jokes and unfriendly nature. He was paired with a Fox shifter with a lot of problems.
Protective instincts Joey did no he had took over and he found a parter a buddy a love and yes a mate. Jul 13, Dan rated it liked it. A very cute, low angst read. I like Joey and Dylan way better than Tom and Sean. It didn't have the same excitement as the first books, but it had a nicer flow. Plus, I'm a sucker for foxes. May 17, Vfields Don't touch my happy! Wel,l this is Joey and the Fox and I have to say it was a very odd read. I couldn't figure out at the end of each chapter where Hollis was going with this story.
Joey was an interesting character in himself. He is a strange and unique man who could be very unmanly, childlike, and adult all at the same time. This character had been used, abused and misunderstood in life until now. Possibly finding the puzzle piece that he fit into. I didn't enjoy the first the installment in this series I skipped the second book, I tried this one and it was just fine for me. Mar 23, T. Paige rated it really liked it. Joey is a jackass.

Takes pride in it, yet, from the first moment that he meets Dylan, he puts him first. Yes, in the beginning it was for his dream job but he he looked for, and found, the patience and kindness in himself Dylan needs in dealing with the repercussions of PSTD. He'll walk away from his dream without a second of doubt if he has to. The lead up to Joey discovering how he truly feels about his fox partner was slow and very sweet. Usually I'm rolling my eyes and a characters blindness but Joey was confused, not really denying it, he just didn't realize.
Mostly because he was focused on Dylan's well-being and taking care of him. I enjoyed it enough to read more in the series. May 17, Emilie rated it it was amazing. I thought I had read this before, but what I'd read was a later book in the series, Foxed. Same author, fox shapeshifter in a police setting, cop who's a jerk. But is everything what it seems?
