The fact is, many LGBT couples are in some form of 'open' non-monogamous relationship very similar to the one described in this book. Alongside the main love story was a cozy mystery story.

The sex scene between the two of them moved me greatly. However, as the story goes on it becomes obvious that the one big obstacle that makes them so different to each other is also something that makes them perfect together. It would seem there is one thing that makes them very incompatible and the reader might think this is too big an obstacle to overcome. Two characters who could be perfect together, they go together so well the reader wants it to happen, but at the same time, there is a big and excellent reason why they shouldn't be together. This had every element of a good romance novel. The unconventional topic and a fresh take on favorite tropes keeps this book out of the “standard MM romance” realm, making it original, interesting, and a true pleasure to read.Ģ) One of the best books that I've read over the past 12 months and I hope it wins many awards. This craft mastery, together with engaging characters and a fun art mystery plot is leavened with enough humor to keep you turning the pages until the satisfying ending. Super-deep focus to get all the good feelings in, and zooming out to introduce elements which are painful or painfully awkward, which prevents kicking the reader out of the fictive dream. Because a guy who wants nothing but romance and a guy who wants nothing but sex will never work-right? Not unless they find a way to fill in the spaces between them.1) I love the way Cass Lennox uses depth focus to control the reader’s feelings. Vaughn and Jonah find themselves grappling not just with stolen art, but with their own differences. When another painting goes missing, tension ramps up both on and off the clock. No way can Jonah give Vaughn what he really wants, not when Jonah barely understands what love is. But Vaughn seems to be the one gay guy in Toronto who doesn't do hookups, which is all Jonah can offer.

Jonah wants his men like his coffee: hot, intense, and daily.

But when a piece is stolen from his art gallery and insurance investigator Jonah Sondern shows up, Vaughn finds himself struggling with that decision. That's all he really needs, especially since sex isn't his forte anyway and no one else seems interested in a purely romantic connection. The decision to stop dating has made Vaughn Hargrave's life infinitely simpler: he has friends, an excellent wardrobe, and a job in the industry he loves.
