Can Jason find the courage he needs to be the man Seb deserves?

When Seb Radcliffe relocates to a seaside town in Cornwall, he feels like a fish out of water. He misses queer spaces and the sense of community he enjoyed when he was living in the city, and decides to open an LGBT-friendly cafe–bar.

Jason Dunn is the builder Seb hires to help renovate the rundown space where the cafe will be housed. Jason is also gay, but unlike Seb, he’s deep in the closet. He’s never had a relationship with another man—only allowing himself the occasional hook up with guys who are prepared to be discreet.

The attraction between the two men is instant and impossible to ignore. But while Seb is out and proud, Jason is terrified of being exposed. With the grand opening of Rainbow Place approaching, tension is growing among some locals who object to Seb’s plans. When things escalate, Jason is forced to choose whether to hide in the shadows and let Seb down, or to openly support the man he’s fallen so hard for.

Although this book is part of a series, it has a satisfying happy ending and can be read as a standalone.

Author Bio

Jay lives just outside Bristol in the West of England. He comes from a family of writers, but always used to believe that the gene for fiction writing had passed him by. He spent years only ever writing emails, articles, or website content.

One day, Jay decided to try and write a short story—just to see if he could—and found it rather addictive. He hasn’t stopped writing since.

Jay writes contemporary romance about men who fall in love with other men. He has five books published by Dreamspinner Press, and also self-publishes under the imprint Jaybird Press. Many of his books are now available as audiobooks.

Do not read this book without at least a dozen boxes of tissues ready. You'll probably need them.

This is an amazing story written beautifully and with a great deal of sensitivity. It also has more twists and turns than a bag of curly fries.

The main characters, Seb and Jason are incredible and Jay make you feel like you're old friends with them. There's also an incredible supporting cast, lesbian couple Trude and Penny, Anna and Zoe, Jason's ex-wife and daughter, Jason's assistant Will, and an entire Rugby team.

Jason's situation is not uncommon, but I'll let you figure that out for yourself.

This book sucks you in and doesn't let you go until you've read it cover-to-cover.

5 stars and a must read!
