Review

I really enjoyed the premise of this story. A palliative care nurse who was assigned to a wealthy headstrong woman. The job also comes with her son, an obnoxious, straight playboy. And boy, Shane is truly obnoxious, in a way only rich kids can be. I questioned for a moment if I would end up liking him….but I shouldn’t have doubted that I would come around, and appreciate him in the end.

Kevin was a great pragmatic optimist who chose a career that isn’t easy, especially given the loss he’s had to endure over the years. But I liked that he was also a little hot-headed, and is excellent at speaking his mind.

What was great about this story is that even though they got a lovely Happy Ever After, it still felt real, personality traits weren’t magically better, they were constantly learning how to communicate and be there for each other. I love that.

Synopsis

Gay natural caregiver meets arrogant first-time gay.

My job isn’t easy but taking care of sick people in the comfort of their own homes is so worthwhile. I like to think I’m professional and know I’m good at what I do, regardless of the circumstances, the patient, or even their families. Maybe it’s because I’ve known loss in my own life, or maybe I was just made for the job. Either way, I love what I do.

However, everything I thought I knew about myself is going to get sorely tested with this new assignment. The patient is a battle axe, and she’s the type to take that as a compliment. If it were just her, there wouldn’t be a problem. I’ve dealt with spirited, hardheaded, pain-in-the-ass patients before.

No, the problem is her son, Shane.

I don’t know what it is about him. I know he’s exactly my type, but he also has a way of getting under my skin, and worse, he likes getting under my skin. The funny thing is he’s supposed to be straight, but the more I keep “running into” him, the more I’m beginning to question that. Which is dangerous because I find myself wanting him to get under my skin. All my personal rules and boundaries are getting tested, and all for some rich, spoiled brat with a gorgeous smile and something vulnerable in his bright eyes.

Basically, I’m in trouble.

***

How long can Kevin ignore Shane’s attention? If he gives in, what will he have to give up? Find out in this first-time gay, opposites attract romance with plenty of witty banter, a bit of snark, and, of course, a HEA.
