Flight paramedic Rhys Foster is hooked on adrenaline. By day it’s blood and guts, by night it’s the thrill of the club. With a different face in his bed most nights, he doesn’t have time to be lonely…right?

Entertainer Jevon Campbell is a play therapist like no other—dancer, magician, acrobat, he brings it all to his global mission to help children in need laugh again. He’s on a rare home visit when he encounters enigmatic Rhys in a London bar.

Their connection is instant, but Rhys fast realises Jevon’s easy confidence doesn’t stretch as far as the bedroom. He has no idea how mesmerising he is—how beautiful—and Rhys resolves to show him.

They grow closer, but time isn’t on their side. Rhys seems unable to articulate how he feels, and with Jevon’s imminent departure from the UK hanging over them, their separate commitments could tear them apart forever.

As the days slip by, Rhys must learn to believe he’s worth the happiness Jevon is offering.

To be honest, it took me a little bit to get into this book.

The character Rhys kinda turned me off at first, but the more I read, the more I started to like him. On the other hand, I fell in love with Jevon from the very beginning.

The more I read, the more it seemed like age-old sex-club goer gets tired of it, yada-yada-yada. However, it just SEEMS that way. What do I mean by that? Read the book and find out.

Find out about how, after their first night together it takes several weeks to get together again. Rhys is a flight paramedic and Jevon is a globe-trotting children's entertainer, often found visiting kids in refugee camps.

It takes some doing, but they finally make a go of it, especially with friends and family members.

It's a good story and I recommend it.

4 out of 5 stars
