But I surely enjoy m/m romances, and a good historical one is difficult to find. Ok, I wouldn't have liked this book so much if it were a boring essay. I think it will be enough for Miles and Adam – I hope it’s enough for me and Spencer.I may sound like a freak but one of the reasons I loved this book so much was the medical stuff! You do the best you can with what you can scrape together to find happiness and hope it’s enough. There’s no magic formula or magic combination of fairy dust falling from the sky to make everything perfect. Spencer may poke fun that I’ve started reading gay romance novels, but I think I may make him read this one. “Oh, crap, Ma, remind me to never let you be interviewed.
I’m not crazy about that Evie girl you hang around with, but you’re a nice boy.” They gave the book a richer experience, and wove little bits of the development of Miles and Adam into every page. The book was well thought out, and I really enjoyed the sci-fi and movie references, even if I didn’t fully understand them. To quote the book, it’s not a romance novel, he can’t just miraculously be cured for Adam-just like I can’t be miraculously cured for Spencer. I hope that one day I can make that kind of progress. Miles grows throughout the book with the help of a good therapist. God knows I wish I could think about having some kind of sex without freaking out. As fucked up as he is, even with the physical damage to his brain, I envy his life. He supports himself, he takes care of himself and Grace (with help), and he even has sex on occasion. I love that he’s cranky and (mostly) unapologetic, never leaves the house, and lives with survivor’s guilt-all while still functioning. Somehow, the man who’s never home and the man who never leaves it must find the strength to fight for a future together. And Miles, uncertain of Adam’s true feelings, is battling demons of his own. Adam soon charms his way into Miles’s bed, and they lose themselves in a summer idyll, safe from the compromises and claims of reality.īut Adam’s life, with all it demands, is waiting for him. When he discovers Adam asleep in a deck chair, he’s furious but intrigued. Alone but for his parrot, he spends his days illuminating manuscripts and hiding from the complexities of life. Miles Caldwell is a brilliant artist, tied by agoraphobia and social anxiety to his family’s lodge. After the final concert of their latest tour, he flees the afterparty, pursuing memories of lost summers and carefree days, until he passes out on the patio of a shuttered lake resort. Lead singer of the hard rock band Black Varen, he’s tired of the empty life of groupies, paparazzi, and hotel rooms.
