This MM novel Clarity OF Lines Book 2 in the Thomas Elkin Series by N.R. Walker!I suggest reading book one, Elements of Retrofit first as it gives a better understanding as to why Thomas Elkin and Copper Jones were meant to be together. It will also explain the complexities and struggles that faced these amazing men.The second book in the series starts off with 44 year old Thomas Elkin and 22 year old Cooper Jones finally together and showing off their beautiful relationship to the world. They want to share their love with their family and friends. Thomas and Cooper actually thought their age difference, which they got over, was just their cross to bear. They worked really hard to get past that and move to a loving relationship. Bringing their love out and open to their friends and family didn't actually go as they had thought it might as it has caused some troubling feelings for their families.The main storyline is about the men coming out to more and more people including their families as a couple. When they introduce each other to their families, the problem seems to be more about their age difference than anything else. The issue now is how Thomas and Cooper deal with their families concerns.  That is what I enjoyed the most as this was so realistically written.What really impressed me was how mature Cooper was in dealing with the burdens they faced. I loved how he took charge and did what was needed to be done where you would think it would be Thomas who took that role on. I enjoyed how Thomas handled young Cooper’s parents and their concerns so well with his life experiences as this could have been very explosive. I just love Thomas and after reading his story and how he handles this new life as a gay man and how he approaches his relationship with Cooper.Will Thomas and Coppers family make it too difficult to be together in a loving relationship or will they be pulled apart? Will they be able to handle the pressures of being together now that they are out to the world? I highly recommend this second book in the Thomas Elkin Series by N.R. Walker!I received a complimentary copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.Reviewed by Paul at Crystal's Many Reviewers!
