Re-read this, as I am fan-girling on Josh Lanyon currently, and this book was one of my very first m/m-romances--read as a paperback, no less. If you enter the fray on such a fare it is no wonder that the sights get set high.

Oh gosh! What's not to love about this book? There is a great mystery unraveling and the characters are surprisingly sweet and well developed. Oh, and there is hot sex! I like well written mysteries, captivating characters and titillating sex. It was a really great book.
