Book Blurb

A male prostitute, a mangy cat, a murder and an obsession that threatens his career, his impending marriage and his life. Nothing is going as planned for Austin Glass.

Austin Glass seems to have it all, A loving fiancee, a future with the FBI and a healthy sized trust fund. At least on the surface. He also has a grin and a wisecrack for every situation. But the smile he presents to the world hides a painful past he’s buried too deeply to remember, and his quips mask bitterness and insecurity. Austin has himself and most of the whole world fooled—until he meets a redhead in a pair of bunny slippers.

As events unfold in the biggest case of his life, Austin’s carefully planned future unravels, and he finds himself pushed into making quick, life-changing decisions. But can he trust himself or anything he feels, when each event seems to be just a series of volatile reactions?

Book Review

I loved this book. It fulfilled two of my primary standard desires in a male/male romance. One, it has some size to it. I'm a fast reader, so too often I find a lot of male/male books rather short. Two, it contains quite a few twists and (oh this is three), um, good characters!

I loved the voice of the lead character and give high marks to the author for keeping his snappy comebacks coming for the duration of the novel. He had me laughing and sympathizing with him throughout the entire book. I also appreciated that the story started out good and simply got better and better. At points I wondered where the author could possibly go to surprise me and yet they did so and in elegant style. Very captivating plot and characters.

I'm pretty sure I fell in love with all of the lead characters and found myself yearning to meet Peter. It gives me a rush when I find a good author who takes the time to put in clever details and manages to keep the voice of the characters throughout the story. I await the other novels of the series with bated breath.

I highly recommend this book; I believe it has something for everyone who is into male/male, Boys' Love, or Yaoi. Thank you, Dani Alexander!
