Trevor is confident and aggressive in his pursuit of Don, who is confused by Trevor’s attentiveness. Don wants to run away from Trevor and run to him at the same time.

Review: Hot and cute, that pretty much sums up this book for me. It’s almost like a comedy of errors, as Donald seems to be thrown Trevor’s way at every turn by Donald’s mother and sister. It’s really just a fun book, with some hot sex, some hang-ups and someone playing hard to get. Really, you don’t need to read too much between the lines or too deeply, into what’s going on.
Donald is staying in his small hometown with his mother over Christmas while he waits for repairs on his Indianapolis apartment. Trevor recently moved to the town where he inherited his uncle’s shop and picks up shifts at the hospital, because he is also a nurse. The plot is simple – Donald isn’t overly optimistic about going into a long distance relationship despite his loneliness and Trevor is willing to take the chance regardless of the consequences. Donald and Trevor are really likable and relatable, and they have some sizzling chemistry.
Honestly, the ending didn’t feel quite right after the Donald we get to know. I really was expecting some sort of hissy fit before everything was resolved. For that reason, I think I really just wanted to know more about this couple before the story ended. Nonetheless, this is a fun holiday read.
