Still, that doesn’t mean he’s ready for a new man in his life. Then he meets nighttime delivery guy Brandon, who appears on his doorstep with Thai food. Tony’s interest is piqued despite their ten-year age difference, and Brandon is all for a new relationship. Relinquishing his hold on his deceased lover is the hardest challenge Tony will face, but if his future is combined with Brandon’s, he may have a second chance at love after all.

Review: Tony still hasn’t recovered from the loss of his husband almost two years ago. He still runs the successful company he started with Devyn and he’s settled into a comfortable life. But, he’s not sure if he’ll ever be able to love someone again. Nine years Tony’s junior, Brandon is a college kid struggling with two jobs in order to stay in school. Exhausted but not bitter, his outgoing personality lights up the room along with his long red hair.
Brandon pursues Tony fiercely, but Tony is still in love with his deceased lover. Not to mention being hung up on the obvious age difference between them. When Brandon makes him an offer for a no strings attached weekend, they both bite off more than they can chew. After 48 hours of the best sex either one of them has ever had, will they be able to get past their differences and find a balance in order to build a future, together?
I love when a cover plays into the story, and this cover definitely plays into the story. A particular scene in the story, a particularly steamy scene in the story. One thing that Tony and Brandon cannot deny is the chemistry they share, and that chemistry provides us with some VERY steamy sex. This was a well written story that conveyed a lot of emotion through imperfections within the characters. A must read for hopeless romantics!
