Kyle Wakefield is in London at the end of December to finish producing his next big action film. Watching over a temperamental director and a stunt crew full of ex-cons is not really filling him with holiday cheer, nor is sparring with his childhood love Nathan Carnes. Thirteen years ago, Kyle and Nathan were torn apart by Kyle's conservative family life and Nathan's self-destructive tendencies. Although their affair immediately rekindles when they meet again, Kyle still will not come out of the closet, and Nathan struggles with Kyle's inability to go public. As their tempers ride as high as their passions, it seems that only a Christmas miracle can keep these two together.
VERDICT The writing team of Katie Porter (Lorelie Brown and Carrie Lofty) offers a complex gift, portraying the rebuilding of a damaged relationship against the backdrop of English holiday spirit. While some raw sex scenes and emotional banter may be too frank for some, readers who enjoy two strong personalities engaged in rediscovering love will find this book intriguing.
