The likelihood of a Cambridge art professor and a burly ex-bouncer who barely graduated school becoming a couple is slim to none. Even the night they meet was filled with misunderstandings and false ideas.Yet, Professor Lawrence Morton and Alan Fletcher manage to overcome their first impressions of each other and find common ground through respect and love. Of course there are misunderstandings between them along the way. Indeed, the basic differences in communication cause Larry and Al to suffer the pitfalls of not truly listening to what the other say. Making their relationship strong will take patience, hard work and love. If Larry and Al can ignore prejudiced family and well meaning friends their love might just last a lifetime.Plain and simple, Muscling Through is an absolutely lovely romance. Tender moments, great dialogue, and sensual encounters, as well as a solid plotline make Muscling Through a treasure to read. Larry is such a sweetheart, but Al is the breakout star here. He may seem slightly slow, but his mind is sharp and true. Muscling Through highlights the importance of understanding exactly what is said and how it is said. This is one story that will put a smile on your face.LisaFor Joyfully Reviewed
