's review

it was amazing
bookshelves: made-me-laugh, mm-family, mm-steamy

I loved this book : sexy mature characters, great secondary characters (teens and colleagues), banter (I laughed a lot in between rage and emotions), family dynamics and a good fight against bigotry.

Both MCs are bisexual, close to 50, single parents, both doing their best between their jobs and raising their children, their priorities. But who says that your libido is dead even when one starts “having gray pubes” ??

A lot is happening, but it’s not overwhelming : Aaron and Larx becoming friends and then lovers, building a new family in the mix, dealing with bigotry in a small conservative town where Aaron is a deputy Sheriff, facing murders and lawyers from rich families and Larx is a school principal, interacting with teens needing a place where they can feel safe, and with bureaucracy and narrow-minded parents.

I am really looking forward to read more about this couple (and potential others ?)

Thank you, Josy, for this second gift : I had such a great time !!
