Spencer is sitting on the balcony of his boss' apartment, hiding and waiting for his best friend to join him so they can drink champagne. Marshall comes onto the balcony to take a phone call. Spencer hears the call then quiet. He sees Marshall has climbed over the railing. Afraid Marshall may jump, he leaves his hiding place and starts talking to Marshall pulling back from the edge. Thus begins their romance with its many bumps along the way because of baggage both carry from their pasts. Can they make it?

I enjoyed this story. Spencer's dream had me worked up bad. So the author did his job and pulled me into Spencer and Marshall's world and made me care about them. I abhorred Joey, Marshall's ex, and knew what he was going to do when he appeared on Marshall and Spencer's date. He also had other scenes where my abhorrence was right on spot. I loved Spencer's friend, Bev. She was open most of the time but could keep a secret or two. I also liked Darcy, Marshall's agent. She was open and honest and what you saw was what you got. I liked the concern Bev and Darcy showed the couple when tragedy occurs (I saw that coming also.) Spencer's family was good for laughs.

I found this to be a good story. I plan on reading more of Mr. Lancaster.… (plus d'informations)

“Don’t worry, Sebastian,” he murmured, drifting off to sleep. “He’s in safe hands now.”

Oh my...the first 45% of this book is swoony and like falling into just the most perfect book for me. An unexpected meeting at a remote home, a group of fabulous men playing games around a kitchen table, beautifully depicted scenery I wanted to fall instantly into, a troubled MC, and a spirit of a lost love. I was an emotional wreck.

Had the book continued at this high, it would have undoubtedly landed in my top reads for the year. But unfortunately, we departed from this deliciousness for about 30% of the book. While it wasn't awful, it was just a little off the mark for me. The MCs however are wonderfully hot together and their first kiss was damn near perfect for me. They deal with some real life relationship issues and do so really well. The last 15% picked up and ended on a high for me. I adored these too. Now there is the paranormal aspect which honestly either could have been omitted or needed to be expanded upon...it was lacking for me and needed more.

Again, that first part, I could read over and over again and the friendships of these men and their interactions were some of the best I have read. Loved them all.

Beautiful cover that we hope brings us an equally beautiful story.
