This latest in Tara Lain's 'Ball' series is as lite and easy a read as the rest of the series is. But just like all of her books in this series, her characters are warm, real people with the sense of community that you get from being surrounded by very good friends. And her characters have all of the same emotions, worries and angst that we all have in our lives. And just like us, they have their share of trouble with finding the loves of their lives.In this Christmas themed story, JJ is not your average gay boy at his size. And that leads to many who are not his close friends to not understanding that he really is more queen than quarterback. So when he meets someone not out of the closet and a very macho type of man JJ tries his best to be more like Ryan. He pretends to like all things manly like sports and beer. And makes himself miserable in the process. By the time he figures out that he needs to be true to himself he figures he's ruined his chances with Ryan and that Ryan will never be comfortable enough to come out of the closet. But Ryan has his own lesson to learn about being true to himself. Can he learn it before he loses JJ?I can't wait for the next in this series!
