katikatNew York City Vice Detective Evan Cerelli has lost his wife, the only person he ever loved and slept with. He's trying to get on with his life, build a life for his children. Former Homicide Detective Matt Haight is a ladies' man, all sex/no commitment. He's depressed, having a midlife crisis, and not sure where his life is headed.
The two find friendship in the bottom of a shared bottle. When the friendship turns to love, it shakes two straight men to the core and flips their lives inside out. Kids, families, careers that are not gay-friendly -- can all the love in the world overcome the obstacles to faith and fidelity?
Review: I have a weakness for "gay for you" stories and this one's just about perfect. A widower and a father of four Evan and an eternal womanizer Matt fall for each other hard - the problem is, neither has ever had feelings for a man, until now. Where Matt gets over his issues fast and just wants to enjoy their bliss, Evan has bigger problems dealing with his feelings for a man, especially since his in-laws are breathing down his neck and blaming him for the death of their daughter, his wife. I loved all the awkward "damn, what now?" moments, just like all the supporting characters: Vic, Helena and especially James (who's the hero of Michaels' next book!). A great romance worth reccomending!
