Another book that I found by chance but didnt read for more than a year. My regret is not reading it sooner. How should I classify this book? At its core, its a gay love story. But its also a story about love and loyalty, about family, about friends and about discovery

Our main character is on a quest to find a friend, both he and the friend are from a tiny town and they both end up in Kansas City. The protagonist moves in with his great uncle and through a series of fortuitous accidents meets an ensemble of characters and situations. Im trying hard to do a spoiler free description and ending up with a sterile description. I can say that I loved the story and found myself wanting to rush through the book to find out what happens. Its all good, from cover to cover. The bad parts are good, and the good parts are great.

This was the first book by this author that I read. What a treat. I definitely will read more of his stuff. The book has a natural flow, everything is readable and the characters are believable and engaging. There was one scene that was not so believable in the situation, but the characters still were.

This book is a M/M love story. There is some plot appropriate and well done love scenes. Sexy times are sexy. Language was mild. There are some adult situations. Keep in mind that the story revolves around theater and in one of the plays there is some violence. Two major characters die from natural causes.

The ending was perfect, what needed to be wrapped up was wrapped up with ribbon and a bow

Read this book. You wont be sorry.
